Hello Guys,
I joined Cognizant recently, the project interview calls which I am getting is not from my base location.
I have the location constraint, should I wait for the right opportunity or raise this concern to ADP team so they can look in to it?
As per ADP policy, one should not have any constraints and take the project as FCFS basis.
Cognizant
Anyone from Mindtree banglore??

Consider branching out or working with a small, local consulting firm. If you are willing to work weekends, they would be able to utilize processing for simulations (FEA, CFD) efficiently. That said, not everyone is proficient at those. You can also take on CAD work.
If you are placed in a location with 24x7 operations , you can leverage that. Oil and gas is always producing and there’s 24x7 engineers on call for certain activities (drilling, facility, production)
I was thinking the same thing; a lot of places function 24/7/365 especially if you take different time zone into account. It can also be really difficult to find people willing to work weekends, so that might actually be one of your biggest selling points
This might have already occurred to you but have you considered freelancing? A lot of companies need people with engineering proficiency but they don't need them every day, so they just go out and hire one for the short term when there is a special project and they need a consultant.
Where do I start to look about these companies?
I know someone with limited mobility so he works from home a lot of the time, most of what he does is CNC programming. Those measurements have to be ultra-precise so you have to be detail-oriented but yeah, I would look into that if I were you
What platform do he go on to get these type of jobs?
