When I graduated in 2002, there was the slump and there were more
anxious faces on Campus (REC, Durgapur) than I had ever seen. But after
having been somewhat involved with DeepRoot Linux (www.deeproot.co.in)
earlier, it was natural for me to join DeepRoot, Campus or no Campus.
Though I stayed there for only about 6 months (followed up with
co-founding a Company, and have moved on to co-founding a new secretive
Internet Start-Up), I learned like hell in those 6 months.

(Apologies for the feeling of deja-vu)

I could point out a few companies you could possibly try:
DeepRoot Linux (www.deeproot.co.in)
Netcore (www.netcore.co.in)
Exocore (www.exocore.com)
which are Indian and purely Linux Companies.

Novell India and RedHat India are nice choices and are easier to get in
touch with, I believe.

HP. Oracle, IBM do have work on Linux.

Google India, Yahoo India, Amazon India as pointed out earlier.

Also keep a track of [COMMERCIAL] anouncements in the mailing lists you
are subscribed to.

Very True. You need to strike a balance between what you want to do and
how much do you need to remain alive and kicking.

All the best for a future with "Real Programming".
