No. At least not through the normal application process. I have worked with many brilliant Indian people, and some of my favorite colleagues were Indian. However, there is so much "noise" in India's talent pool [1] - bad communication, fake degrees, fake profiles, sloppy work - that it just takes too much effort filtering through it. I understand that it's biased, but simply not hiring from India seems to be the better business decision when there is good talent elsewhere.

Of course, the exception are people that come through the network, not through a "normal" application process.

I am studying in an "engineering" "college" of India. ("top" college by Indian norms, but not IIT[1]). And I totally understand this.

The mentality of 'gaming the system' is deep rooted in education system here, probably because education is so rote-oriented, mechanical and namesake.

[1] I would have difficulty believing current generation of IIT students would be any good either. These days the entrance process for IITs has become pretty game-able and people with money and time do that.
