How good is this written?
"Don't judge anyone by years of experience. Judge them by their skills." Okay, but recruiters will judge them by gender as well. Aur aapne to dono bhi (i don't consider LGTV) mention kiye hai. And what is this new trend of ~gaslighting?
Plus, why not directly tag said friend in the post if you have awesome reach?

May be she wants to claim... 'mene tujhe naukri dilwayi' and also it brings attention to her - giving back to community

It is impossible to not get hired if you are skilled. Build a portfolio of projects that you worked upon and publish it publically, contribute to open source projects from time to time, directly reach out to random founders and flex what you have built and I assure you they will be after you rather than you running after them. There are way more jobs in the markets for SDEs than there are people who are good enough to fill them.
For a country where kids learn to code on paper, gives exams where questions like "distinguish between C and C++" are asked, and BSc. IT graduates cannot write a single piece of 10 lines of code, we sure are entitled af in "demanding" a job.
Or maybe this is just a made up, attention seeking, cringe post on LinkedIn

I agree. But talking about projects, ive had talk with 3-4 founders about the tech-stack im currently using, with given reasoning. The first founder said: they are gonna use a different backend stack, Im fine with any tech stack (just dont make me build frontend. I can do react js but less interested)
Then I started exploring other stacks as well - Python, Node, Go .., also making sys reliable, redis cache and all. Now, this recent founder I had a talk with says: You are more of a generalist (he went through my github, and also discussed), the industry (basically him) needs specialists (dude, I'm fresher yet to have professional exp, and i can switch between stacks as logic is more imp i think), and he put me down saying sorry!
I consider myself more than avg in DSA (I've cracked some good OAs and interviews (pay range: 12-27 lpa), but ghosting and some bads!!)
I've almost 0 opensource contribs. Basically, i get busy with my own projects. And a mass recruiter (govt job) is all set to onboard me.
I struggle to do DSA (time) when my head is full of project work!
What am I supposed to do? I want to switch ASAP and be a good engineer.
( I don't want to remain in support projects and service based)
Idk if i put this here - i graduated with a mechanical degree.
Do you have a job right now? Because then you pass the bottomline I was talking about. You cracked the DSA Interviews with 12-27LPA jobs. That is good enough for freshers I guess. Also the process of finding a job is 3-4 months in general, so don't get discouraged.
All the best

Look if what is written is true and not just hyperbole, I would be thankful for someone to do this for me in that position - no matter how it’s done. Every bit would count in that situation

I agree. But i just feel that very few recruiters will show interest in this.

I've noticed one thing when people brag about their rejection count.
They literally count automated rejections! Also applying for SSE, SDE3, 4 positions being FRESHER.
When asked 'why' they reply- opening thi, krdiya apply, luck aajma lenge!
I myself count interview rejections, OA (sometimes)
