YouLeap
BSc (Hons) in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence · UK

From an average mech grad to a BMW robotics role — via Munich.

Outcome: Placed at BMW pre-graduation All journeys

Devanand was interested in technology and AI but lacked clarity about the right pathway to enter the field. The assessment and guidance process helped him identify Data Science & Artificial Intelligence as the best-fit career direction, leading to admission and a UK study visa for BSc (Hons) at the University of East London.

Background

BTech Mechanical graduate, 6.8 CGPA, one internship in a machine-shop automation team. Rejected by two local consultancies as 'not a strong profile.'

Challenge

Arjun's family was set on Canada. He didn't know what career he actually wanted — just that he wanted 'a good engineering job abroad.'

What YouLeap did

The assessment surfaced Robotics & Automation as his strongest fit given his mechanical background and internship. We reframed his SOP around three specific automation problems from his internship, targeted TU Munich's MSc Robotics programme, and introduced him to the Werkstudent route at German manufacturers.

Career outcome

Accepted into TU Munich MSc Robotics, Cognition & Intelligence. Landed a Werkstudent role on BMW's factory-automation team in year one. Converted to a full-time robotics engineer offer six months before graduation.
