This is my alternate account , currently a specialist on codeforces. My placement season is coming up , I have a low CGPA (around 6-6.5) , I am in a teir 1 college , I am thinking to grind till CM (Candidate Master ) on codeforces . Will it be even worth it? Will I be able to get a job because of the skills. Do suggest your views . I will do development as well and focus on my core subjects(OOPs , OS , DBMS ) as well . Will all these skills help me to land a good job either oncampus or offcampus?
NO
So you weren't able to crack any offers because of CM or because of these skills?
People don't give a shit about your rating.
But if he gains the skills of a CM , does development as well , focuses on core subjects , will it help him get an offer either oncampus / offcampus?
If you can do all of that. I see no reason for someone to reject you.

I don't understand why many Indians fail to perceive Codeforces correctly
I'm CM and still unemployed. Also,lots of my friends have very little knowledge when it comes to algorithm, but they still got a job easily as they study for it directly. So grinding other skills for job is better IMO.
