Prashant Kumar’s Success Story: How CIMAGE Helped Him Achieve a Top Cybersecurity Job in California

Every year, students at CIMAGE College, Patna take their first step into the professional world, and many of them land amazing jobs at top companies. One inspiring story that stands out is that of Prashant Kumar, an alumnus from CIMAGE, who has gone on to secure a prestigious role at a leading cybersecurity company in California—Saviynt. His journey from CIMAGE to Saviynt is a perfect example of how dedication, hard work, and the right guidance can shape a successful career.

Prashant was part of the 2013–2016 BCA batch at CIMAGE. After completing his course, he was placed at Wipro through campus recruitment, which was an incredible starting point for his career. However, Prashant didn’t stop there. He wanted to challenge himself further and make a leap into the rapidly growing field of cybersecurity. After gaining valuable experience at Wipro, he decided to join Saviynt, a leading cybersecurity company based in California.

In a recent conversation, Prashant shared his thoughts on how his time at CIMAGE helped shape his career. When he returned to CIMAGE after a few years, he spoke with gratitude about his college experience, the friendships he built, and the skills he gained. These years were crucial in preparing him for the career he now enjoys.

At Wipro, Prashant was recognized for his dedication and hard work, which helped him earn a spot as a mentor to other employees. This not only strengthened his skills but also made him an attractive candidate for new opportunities. Eventually, this led to his switch to Saviynt, where he now works with clients in France on exciting cybersecurity projects.

The process to land the job at Saviynt was tough—Prashant had to clear five rounds of interviews—but with the solid foundation and skills he developed at CIMAGE, he passed each round with confidence. Today, Prashant says that much of his success is due to the training and knowledge he gained during his time at CIMAGE.

Prashant’s story shows how CIMAGE helps students get industry-ready. The add-on courses offered by college played a key role in giving him the technical skills that set him apart from others. For example, while working at Wipro, Prashant noticed that some of his colleagues struggled with the basics of Java programming—but CIMAGE students like him were already comfortable with those concepts. This gave him a major advantage in his career.

CIMAGE’s curriculum is designed not only to prepare you for exams but to equip you with practical, real-world skills that will help you succeed in your future career. Whether you are pursuing BBA, BCA, B.Com, B.Sc – IT, or MBA, the additional skills and knowledge gained from CIMAGE’s add-on courses will give you a competitive edge in any industry.

Prashant’s time at CIMAGE wasn’t just about books and assignments. He fondly remembers the shared flat where he and his classmates lived during their training. The space felt more like a family than just a place to stay. They supported each other, had fun together, and learned in a close-knit environment. These experiences created strong bonds that have lasted long after graduation.

This feeling of being part of a community is what sets CIMAGE apart. Students are not just part of a college—they’re part of a family that supports and encourages each other throughout their journey.

Prashant has a message for current students at CIMAGE: Never stop learning. He emphasizes that the key to success is constantly upgrading your skills. Don’t miss out on the add-on courses—they’re designed to improve your confidence and help you stand out in the job market. These courses are an important part of your education and will give you a head start in your career. He also advises students to stay motivated, no matter how tough things may get. Learning is a continuous process, and staying curious will always open up new opportunities for growth.
