Recommended track
Data Engineering
→ Azure or AWS Data Engineer
Java developers move into data engineering faster than most, because the JVM, testing discipline and system design instincts all transfer directly. What you add is distributed processing with Spark, warehouse modelling, and orchestration. Expect three months of training alongside a full-time job.
PySparkDatabricksGlueRedshift
Recommended track
Data Analyst
→ Data / BI Analyst
Support engineers usually have stronger SQL than they think and real exposure to how a business actually runs. The move to data analytics means adding visualisation, statistics and business framing, then learning to present support experience as domain knowledge. Three months of training is typical.
SQLPower BIPython
Recommended track
Python Developer
→ Backend / Python Developer
Manual testers are rejected for developer roles mostly because of how the experience reads, not what it contains. The move requires real Python fundamentals, two backend projects with test coverage, and learning to present testing rigour as an engineering strength. Three months of focused training is realistic.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Straight answers to what people ask before they book a call.
Am I eligible if I have a career gap?
Yes. A gap is one of the most common reasons people come to us. What matters is that you have prior work experience and can commit to the schedule. We'll help you build recent project work so the gap stops being the first thing an interviewer asks about.
Can I do this alongside a full-time job?
That is who the programme is designed for. Batches run on weekday evenings and weekends, sessions are recorded, and mock interviews are scheduled around your working hours. Most people finish while working full time.
When do batches start and what are the timings?
New batches start every month. Weekday batches run in the evening and weekend batches run across Saturday and Sunday mornings. We confirm the exact slot for your track on your assessment call.
How much does it cost?
Training + placement is ₹3,50,000; placement only is ₹3,20,000 (GST included). You pay ₹30,000 training fee and a refundable ₹50,000 placement token at enrolment; the ₹2,70,000 balance is due only after you’re placed. If we don’t place you within 3 months of starting your resume, the ₹50,000 token is refunded. Full details: stintacademy.com/fees/
What if I don't get placed?
Placement support continues until you are hired — there is no cut-off date after which we stop. That means mock interviews, resume iterations and referrals keep going. We will be straight with you on your assessment call about whether your target role and timeline are realistic.
Which companies hire from Stint?
Our placed candidates have joined Maersk and Macy’s among others, across product companies and consulting firms in Bengaluru, plus remote roles.
Is it online or offline?
Both. You can attend live online from anywhere, or in person at our Bengaluru centre. Many people mix the two — online on weekdays, in person for weekend project sessions and mock interviews.
How is Stint different from Scaler or Baskoder?
Three things: we work only with experienced professionals rather than students, mock interviews are unlimited rather than capped, and placement support runs until you are hired rather than for a fixed window. We also run offline batches in Bengaluru, not only online.
