HireSetu's note
A short, hands-on mandatory list
Python plus one of PyTorch, TensorFlow or Hugging Face Transformers is required, along with familiarity with LLM APIs, vector databases like FAISS or Pinecone, and RAG frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex. Embeddings and RLHF sit inside the work, not in the entry bar.
At 0-2 years, coursework gets you screened. Having built something with a model, wired it to an API or a vector store, and being able to say what broke is what gets discussed. B.Tech and M.Tech are the named degrees and MBA and MCA are accepted, so this is a build role, not a research gate. A small assistant or chatbot you actually shipped says more here than another certificate.
The week runs on experiments and evaluations
The build side is LLM and multimodal applications: prompt strategies, fine-tuning, pipelines across text, image, audio and video, and integration through APIs from OpenAI, Anthropic or Hugging Face. Then comes the part juniors underestimate. Running experiments, evaluating outputs, and tuning accuracy and relevance with embeddings, RAG and human feedback. That work is repetitive and measurement-heavy, and it takes most of the hours.
Advisory means client engagements, so you get staffed onto a project and the domain depends on what the team has sold. Ask how staffing works and whether you sit on one engagement or move between them.
Questions worth carrying in
Ask whether the team fine-tunes models or mostly builds on hosted APIs. That answer decides how much PyTorch you'll touch week to week.
Ask how they evaluate the applications they ship. Gen AI outputs are hard to score, and a team with a real answer to that question is an easier place to learn. Ask too how the Bengaluru group splits work with PwC teams elsewhere, since that shapes who sets your priorities and how much client contact you get.
