Put in lots of jargons and bold them. 
 These are generally read by HRs and thats how you woo them. 
 DO NOT use these jargons in tech interviews, instant red flag.

I am a '21 graduate from a Tier 1 college (old IIT) and have had short stints as product manager at a couple of startups. About a year back, I decided to startup but after a few months, realized that startup idea wasn't worth pursuing. 

Researched around a few startup ideas and finally landed upon a good one in D2C space. But the problem is financing. I don't have much saving and friends / family network wouldn't be able to finance this. I really want to pursue this idea but finance is becoming a hindrance. 

So started looking for job opportunities about 3 months back. I have been exploring work opportunities in product / founder office / EIR roles or other generalist role. 

Job hunt process has been frustrating to say the least. Getting very few calls. In most cases, people are ghosting after couple of rounds of interview or assignment. In some cases, after getting through 2-3 rounds, I got to know that opening has been closed temporarily. Most HRs don't even have the decency to give feedback. 

I don't intend to work in job for long anyway. As soon as I have the job, I plan to start working on my business idea and quit as soon as I have enough financial leeway. 

How should I go about job hunt process? I have been trying to connect with folks on LinkedIn in whose company job openings are there. Apart from this, I have been connecting with founders from recently funded startups. Naukri / Instahyre and IIM Jobs are other portals I have been looking on. Anything I should do differently here? 

Looking forward to hearing your suggestions / experience.

How bad is the job market?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I am seeing LinkedIn posts everyday about how people are starting a new position in a different organisation. I've tried LinkedIn job posts, asking for referrals, trying less popular job portals, applying directly in career pages of companies, and changing my resume multiple times. But no luck. Even if the resume gets shortlisted now, there's no further action. 

I can see multiple people giving seminars on how to switch jobs but everyone has the same things to say.

Any suggestions?

Draft: Cover Letter to IT cell Hiring Manager

Consultant

Guys, need a quick descriptive help here. I applied to the position of senior profile for which in 1st round only they gave asked youe CTC expectation and at what CTC you will not go beyond. I shared my CTC and after 3 days I got an mail stating that my candidature got rejected because they will not be able to pay that CTC which is market standard that i asked. Now, i want to work in that company because profile is good and will help to draft my career and i am ready to decrease my CTC expectation also. 

My problem is how do I portray over mail and what pointers i should be adding to convey them to consider my profile for next round of interview as i am ready to work at lesser CTC (asked 3x of my curent CTC when lastly was discussed). 

Note: HR didn't asked my my current CTC . She directly asked expectations and at what CTC you will not go beyond.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

Program Manager

Heyy folks, 
I am a semi qualified chartered accountant and currently in search of job. It has been observed during various job applications submitted that the resume is not getting shortlisted by the employers. 
I have working experience in mid size CA firms and also worked as a freelancer performing taxation functions. Currently, I want to have exposure of big corporate houses where I can learn more and perform well further.
While applying, it has been observed that I have to face rejection. I am not getting a clear idea about how to modify or make changes in my resume and LinkedIn profile so that employers become eager to know more about my work exposure.
There is a well known saying that don't judge a book by it's cover but while looking for job opportunities, it has been observed that while buying a book, the first of all it's a cover of book which attracts the perspective customer to pick the book and look into it.
I want to know that what a HR basically looks for in a job application of interested candidates.
I also want to redesign my cover in order to increase chances of getting selected.
 It will be a great privilege to get positive response and guidance from the experts.

Finance Operations

we were playing truth or dare and my friend challenged me that she could get any job interview with a cold email/dm. 

I usually receive hearback from 1/50 job postings I apply to, so didn't believe her at all.

now she made a GPT to write cold emails and get job interviews.

I really wanna use it, but she is flexing so hard now, my ego tells me not to use it.

help me out, do cold emails and all really work?
