  • Work with relational and/or NoSQL databases (MySQL / MongoDB) for data modeling and queries
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code
  • Participate in code reviews, testing (including manual and API testing via tools like Postman), and debugging
  • Collaborate with designers, product managers, and other engineers to understand requirements and deliver features within timelines
  • Assist in identifying and fixing bugs, and improving application performance and usability

  • Prior internship experience in a full-stack role
  • Participation in hackathons or coding competitions
  • A portfolio of personal or academic full-stack projects (GitHub links welcome)

HireSetu's note

Two stacks, one person

Entry-level full stack listings often mean one strong side and tolerance for the other. This one puts React and Python with Flask or Django in the required list, with MySQL or MongoDB behind them, and it expects the experience to come from internships, hackathons or your own projects.

That is a lot to carry at under a year of experience. A project you built end to end, browser to database, is the closest thing to the actual work. If everything you have done so far is frontend, the backend half is where you'll feel the gap.

Revise the middle of the stack

Interviews for this kind of role probe how the layers connect. Be able to explain what happens between a button click and a row appearing in the database: HTTP methods and status codes, JSON payloads, how a REST endpoint is structured, where validation belongs.

On the React side, props, state, hooks and re-renders come up, along with plain JavaScript topics like closures, arrays, async and promises. On the data side, know when MySQL suits and when MongoDB does, and be able to write a join and an aggregation. Rehearse one bug from your own project out loud, in about three minutes.

The adtech side of the house

The brand field says Sokrati, Dentsu's performance marketing and adtech arm, and the nice-to-haves fit that setting: LLMs, web scraping, fraud detection on traffic.

If you picture a developer job as building an app people download, adjust the picture. Adtech runs on high-volume event data, reporting pipelines and dashboards, and the code has to survive real traffic and messy inputs. The domain is learnable on the job, but it shapes what you'd be debugging.

Details to pin down

Ask which of Flask or Django the team actually runs. The listing allows either, and a real codebase sits on one, so knowing which tells you what to brush up on.

Ask how many engineers you'd work alongside and who reviews your pull requests in the first months, since at this level review feedback is most of your training. The office is at Amar Madhuban Tech Park in Baner and the work is onsite, so settle the commute early. Finally, find out what a fresher gets handed first: a slice of the frontend, a set of endpoints, or a mix.

How to apply

  1. Open Dentsu's careers site with the Apply button.
  2. Create a Workday account for Dentsu. Workday logins are separate for every company, so an account made for another employer won't work here.
  3. Upload your resume and check every auto-filled field; Workday often misreads dates and job titles.
  4. Answer the screening questions, submit, and look for the confirmation email from Workday.
