Transforming College Placement Cells Into Powerhouses
Ready to elevate your institution’s placement success?
Led by software industry veteran Sai Prasad (ex-Sr. Vice President), Sell Like Mercury empowers colleges to achieve exceptional placement outcomes—both in terms of placement percentages and the quality of offers secured by students.
A partner, not a vendor
What we do
We partner with college placement teams to deliver unmatched placement results, driving both quantity (100% placement is our goal) and quality
(best-in-class average salary packages).
Our mission is to enable placement offices to equip their students with the right blend of knowledge, skills, and confidence to ensure they secure dream roles across on-campus and off-campus opportunities.
Colleges that integrate Sell Like Mercury into their placement preparation see transformative benefits:
- Unshakeable student confidence, as they are fully prepared to handle any interview challenge.
- Higher recruiter interest, as companies recognize the rare market-readiness of the student pool.
- Off-campus success, with students confidently securing multiple offers beyond campus drives.
Sell Like Mercury is not just another training vendor. It is a team of highly accomplished corporate leaders who actively mentor and guide students by offering:
- Practical real-world skills essential to excel in placement processes.
- Insider tips at every stage, enabling students to project confidence and negotiate premium offers—professionally and gracefully.
- A roadmap not just to any job but to career-defining opportunities.
We deeply understand the style, energy, and expectations of today’s students. Our approach is:
- Highly engaging, built to capture the attention of modern learners.
- Enriched with relatable examples and real-world stories that simplify complex concepts
- Focused on helping every student uncover and express their unique strengths—making preparation an exciting and enjoyable journey.
Our proven method includes continuous reinforcement, ensuring students master every skill taught. We provide:
- Daily self-paced exercises to strengthen core competencies.
- Collaborative group activities that foster peer learning and team-based problem-solving.
- Comprehensive reference resources for students who want to go the extra mile and become true standouts in the talent pool.
We are committed to uplifting every student regardless of background or starting point. We recognize that:
- Students come with varied levels of exposure and experience.
- A uniform approach doesn’t work—individual attention matters.
- Some learners may advance quickly while others need focused support—and we make sure no one is left behind.

Our Courses
Many students in India possess the technical expertise needed to excel, yet struggle during on-campus and off-campus placements due to a lack of strong communication skills and the inability to stand out in Group Discussions and Interviews. Our courses are crafted to address these gaps, equipping students with the tools they need to differentiate themselves, build confidence, and secure their dream jobs with top-tier companies offering lucrative pay.
Corporate Communication
Many students can speak in colloquial English but struggle to communicate with a professional corporate tone. This course helps them master corporate communication so the interviewers can’t say no to them.
Group Discussion
Group Discussion is the first time interviewers see you in action. The first impression has to be the best, as you know. Moreover, the dynamics of Group Discussion have changed dramatically over the years, so through this course, students master the art and science of group discussion with various current, burning topics.
Interview
How do you stand out and command a massive salary among all the candidates interviewing? That’s precisely what we help you with through this course. Students learn various tactics they can confidently deploy during their on-campus and off-campus placements and come out with flying colours!

The Visionary Behind Sell Like Mercury
Sai Prasad
Founder & CEO
Founder & CEO
Sai Prasad brings over 15 years of leadership experience from the global software industry, having held senior positions including Senior Vice President at a leading multinational software organization. In these roles, he was responsible not only for driving business strategy but also for mentoring and developing thousands of professionals across various functions and geographies.
Throughout his career, Sai worked closely with campus recruitment programs across India, hiring talent directly from diverse academic institutions. During this process, he repeatedly noticed a concerning pattern: while students possessed strong academic qualifications, they lacked the practical, industry-relevant skills that today’s employers expect. This gap often led to lower placement rates, suboptimal job offers, and disappointment for both students and the institutions working hard to prepare them.
This insight led to the creation of Sell Like Mercury — a platform built not just to guide students, but to enable college placement teams to significantly raise the success and impact of their placement programs.
Sai’s vision is simple yet powerful: to bridge the critical gap between academic preparation and real-world employability, so placement offices can consistently deliver better results, attract superior companies, and elevate the institution’s standing in the eyes of the job market. At Sell Like Mercury, we partner with placement leaders who are committed to transforming the career success of their students—and the reputation of their institutions.
