How Much Can I Get Paid With This Resume?

I am not looking for job but was I curious that how much can I get an offer of in CTC for a SDE role at a startup with this resume.

I have just graduated but I have been building apps from last 3.5 years.

For more context, here is my LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theishangoswami

Ps: I am pretty good at dev, not so much at dsa.

Why do you need a job if you are already a founder?

Open coffee shop Founder & CEO of said coffee shop. Jobless for 2 years -> founder stealth startup. That's how it works.

U dont get paid by looking at ur resume. Lots of people write boastful things in resume to get shortlisted. Its the interview rounds where they test u on ur skills mentioned in ur resume. And thats the criteria for getting selected

Definitely, this makes sense. Though I was asking out of curiosity so an answer in a rough range would be cool.

Everyone is being too nice to you so I’ll be the asshole here. WHY are you portraying yourself as a founder of two companies when you’ve barely done any work with them AND you’re in school?

Trust me, it doesn’t work. Nobody cares. These are side projects at best.

Capitalise on the internship, it seems good. No one expects 5 years of work ex before graduating despite what bhaiyya didis of YouTube say.

Yeahh makes sense, got it. And to the question of CTC, what do you think about that?

See that depends on the company you’re interviewing at. I know a 2021 CS grad with a good internship who got around 12 LPA at a large networking company (think telecom) Some startups may pay more but again it’s pure luck or strong referral that you get to interview at pay leaders.

Efforts to present skills is 0.,

And let the hard truth hit you, this resume will never get you a job:

  1. ATS will reject is straight away (0% chance of selection)
  2. Real HR will not even consider it, In the first look it's clear that 0 effort has been put in making this resume.
  3. You don't use your real name on this platform.

Funny that I actually got offers with this exact resume.

Though the 3rd point definitely is helpful, thanks for that.

Just apply to jobs and try to get the best. You have done some good work, you will definitely get a good package. But you have to hustle, apply everywhere where you see a good opportunity, at the end it will all be worth it.

Thanks for the answer! Though I posted this because I was curious to know how much could I get paid. I am "not" looking for a job so won't be applying to places.
