©How fresher can get a job as a data scientist?©

India as a job market is highly resistant to hire data scientist as a fresher. Everyone out there asks for at least 2 years of experience, but then the question is where will we get the two years experience from?

The important thing here to build a portfolio. As you are a fresher I would assume you had learnt data science through online courses. They only teach you the basics, the analytical skills required to clean the data and apply machine learning algorithms to them comes only from practice.

Do some real-world data science projects, participate in Kaggle competition. kaggle provides data sets for practice as well. Whatever projects you do, create a GitHub repository for it. Place all your projects there so when a recruiter is looking at your profile they know you have hands-on practice and do know the basics. This will take you a long way.

All the major data science jobs for freshers will only be available through off-campus interviews.

Some companies that hires data scientists are:

Siemens

Accenture

IBM

Cerner

Creating a technical portfolio will showcase the knowledge you have already gained and that is essential while you got out there as a fresher and try to find a data scientist job.
