So I graduated from btech this year and I currently have a job of 8.55 lpa but I want to make a switch within a year . So what should be my roadmap ? should I continue dsa + dev both or projects are enough?

How to switch

I did my graduation in Mechanical Engineering from Delhi Technological University. Worked my ass off during covid lockdown to grab a Software developer job. Number of hours spent on DSA and development for straight 3 years. 

I was able to grab a decent package being from mechanical background. Currently i am working in Accenture as a software developer -> Java full stack developer + Angular (12LPA ctc, 9 Base)

I want to work in a product based company which has better opportunities for me because i feel there is very limited opportunities in accenture and somehow people do not encourage to go for them at all. 

I need guidance on which companies should i be looking for great opportunities, great tech stack, with good management. Salary is never a obstacle for me. I am just looking for growth at this point of time in my career. Currently i am back to DSA again for interview preps.

Referrals are also well appreciated.

Infrastructure Engineer

I'm currently working as a DevOps Engineer in a GCC with a CTC of 28 including Bonus. I joined this org 6 months back. My work here is mostly related to kubernetes and argocd. 

I'm plan to make a switch in 2025 and want to have clear goals for next year to prepare for switch.

My current focus is to develop my skills in GoLang and increase my depth in k8s and Linux for next year. Will this skills be in demand even after a year or should I be flexible with my plan for the next year?

Context: I've 3+ YOE, my previous experience was combination of AWS serverless + infrastructure definition + kubernetes + python backend coding. But my current workload is only k8s and argo.

Also I want to touch 50 LPA in compensation or land a job outside India.

Job Switch

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

30M here and currently working as a QA. My current ctc is 14LPA(6Y.O.E). Currently I'm on bench and looking out for projects. Parallelly I'm also looking outside, incase I don't get any projects in my current company. 

The problem  here is I'm not very good at writing programs(Or atleast that's what I think) and constantly face issues in programming questions in interviews. I have always been an A+ student, scoring in 90's throughout academics(Scored 100 in chem and phy in 12th). But never been able to clear programming interviews. This is affecting my self-confidence and I keep getting self doubts(One of my senior in my first company told me that, I'm good at theoretical concepts and I fail when it comes to the application of said concepts).

Now I'm into automation testing and as I was looking to switch, I kept seeing multiple openings for Mobile Development(Development in general, be it backend/front-end/full stack etc). The below reasons made me thinking as to why not switch to development:
1. My current CTC is low for my exp and testing usually don't have much openings
2. Testers don't have much respect in the Industry(Even from people working along with us)
3. Not much scope to earn more from testing field

My current thoughts:
1. Enroll into a Java course from any offline institute and learn Java thoroughly first.
2. Switch to a good company with decent pay
3. Invest time for 1-2 years and learn development and then try for some startups.

Any advice to my thoughts? Am I thinking in the right direction?
And also, if anyone who has done this transition(Or similar transition) could shed some light on how you did it and what difficulties you faced, I would greatly appreciate it.

Career Advice/RoadMap: Thinking to switch to Mobile Development from QA. Any roadmaps or advice in general?

Hi All, I have 3 Years experience as an automation test engineer and  want to switch into devops.

I have done the DevOps course and gained hands experience.

How can I show my experience as a DevOps engineer because all openings require 2-3 years of relevant experience.

And in my payslip my designation is written.

I'm so confused what should i do ?

Want to switch from testing to DevOps

Short version:-So guys I am working as an automation tester wanted to switch to Development?

Long version:- So i joined my current  company as fresher.Had basic knowledge of java then was trained on java spring boot Microservices devlopment. Then put on bench for about 5 month(i actually wasted that time).Now got a project I do automation using python and selenium.I don't like doing it . So now I want to switch to development. Confused should i learn Django, Node js or should stick with java spring only. I am more inclined towards django as now i write automation script in python. And i personally feel it to be better then java (maybe cause it is easier to write).But i don't know market trends. That's why guidance needed.Thanks in advance

Just saw my friend with 12LPA posting 50LPA to make others feel underpaid🤣🤣…don’t believe everyone here. 
 If you feel you are underpaid, switch. Seeing some unrealistic number? ignore.
