How to get a better opportunity is where I’m stuck

it depends on you, your skills, company requirements and luck... when i was searching for jobs i was not sure whether i will get calls or not but i start getting 2-3 calls weekly from different companies and start ups

Software Developer

Even I'm not getting any calls after applying to several companies. A friend suggested to improve ATS score but i tried a lot it doesn't improve. Wasted my 3 years at useless projects.

If you want to grow, don't take lollipop from your current organisation like 30% hike or 40% hike. If they wanted to give they have given you already. Just because you have another offer in hand and in that company you can put value and learn more which helps you in career growth. Companies like infosys, tcs and other mnc will offer you such hikes in order to retain you but you know what you learned in past in these companies, so if you have better opportunity go for it

How frequent should we be switching jobs?

As many a times we encounter situation where HR interrogate about multiple career advice. HOWEVER IT IS MANDATORY TO SWITCH JOB FOR FINANCIAL GROWTH.

Frequency of Switching Job ?

I'm 22 and like 6 months into my first, I really love what I'm working on and what I'm being compensated for that. But whenever I ask anyone whats their plan is they say mostly switch within 1-2 years, especially freshets who were selected along with me, and surprisingly almost no one here is from pre-covid.

Does everyone switch jobs as often as it seems?

The company I used to work for recently shut down and I just received my first offer from a sizeable unicorn. 

I am being massively low-balled (20% cut). And on top of it, it's an exploding offer. 

I have a couple of interviews lined up (they start after May 28th) but at the moment, this is the only offer I have. 

What should I do?

1. Hard negotiate? Leave the offer on the table if it doesn't work out. 

2. Soft negotiate. Get the offer. Interview with other companies and try to get a better offer before joining (feels wrong)

Things to consider:

- I have 10+ months runway
- Last cash comp was 24L at 2.5YOE

I'm leaning towards 1.

I'm being lowballed. What should I do?

Product Manager

I like my current company and the work I’m doing.
I also love the city I’m in.
Is moving to Bangalore for a 30% hike with it?

i have a job offer with a 30% hike.. but I need to shift to Bangalore for it

Founder

I'm working at payU payment from 2 years and from last two years they are giving the increments in single digit, is the market is bad ? Last year I got 4% increment I was informed by my manager that company is not doing good same has happened this year again I got only 4% incriment. In my team I have seen people are getting 8-10% also and in other team few have got 12% also, however I feel even 12% is the highest still it seems too low. is this is happening everywhere or it's just payU?

How do the increments happen this year?

I am seeing a lot of layoff related posts everywhere from news articles to LinkedIn.. Is the Job market really that bad now? Or just the media is projecting that way? 

If it's really bad, which department you think is the most affected? How's layoffs specifically in India? Or is it layoffs in US but more hiring in India due to cost cutting? 

Are layoffs in technology/engineering dept as in for developers or some other departments? Your thoughts please..

Hi,

I am a regular IT guy, working as an SDE in a product-based company, making around 12 LPA with 2.5YOE and a background from a named Tier 1 (or Tier 2, depending on your perspective) private college.
I am currently on a job hunt and max could leverage up to a 50% hike!

I'm noticing many folks with base salaries ranging from 20 LPA - 25 LPA and overall CTCs in the range of 35 LPA - 40 LPA with the same 2-3 years of experience!

I'm happy for them, but I'm wondering why I'm struggling to reach those levels despite my efforts. Have overall salary ranges increased? Am I stuck in the same salary bracket? It's frustrating and makes me feel inadequate at this stage of my career.

Some might say that salary isn't everything, but personally, I have certain commitments that require a better-paying job. However, whenever I pursue opportunities, they seem just out of reach.

Feeling low, hence felt like writing them down here. Thanks

Feeling dumb about myself!

Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

currently I work in an ai consulting company (<40 folks) with 20+ lpa salary.
recently I got an offer from a big mnc bank for around 15% hike on my total ctc.
I informed my current org yesterday and they have countered me with a 20% hike now. 
I am confused on what to choose.
