Is there a difference between interview process of SDET role and a QA?- Grapevine

Hey guys,

So i was asking questions to one engineer manager about quality analyst. I asked her how sdet as field in general as i already have 5 years of experience in QA field. Learning side by side coding for a next switch. She said do something else except QA as in her experience, her previous companies do not have QA team itself. So i am little confused as a career path. So wanted to ask how you guys software at your workplace and does sdet role will have significance in this market in future?

How you do QA at work and do your company employ seperate QA team/dev need to do everything

Software Developer

Storytime -

I have around 4 years of experience in QA field where i do manual testing. So i changed my field to frontend dev in pursuit of good salary and thought that software developer will have more roles. My previous company invested little bit in me but did not give any major projects. Then they fired me on basis of lack of logical skills. So i started looking for QA roles and dev role. Also i get to know that sdet roles are also a thing where people can earn as much as sde. 

Now the problem starts, i was laid off and given 1 month salary. So i found one job which is remote and it is of QA job . Until this point i made my mind that i will move on sdet path . Then my friend has referred me to one company before my layoff. So they scheduled one tech interview for frontend dev and i cleared it. I cleared it because my friend give me problem😅. Also there is no hr round and they also released offer. Now the problem is i have joined QA role. i am little bit scared that what if i joined sde role and same thing again happens to me. Little company fires me for not completing my task on time. Then i will lose my current job too and i have to start from zero.

Compensation details -

QA role - 9 LPA
Sde role - 10 LPA

Both are remote. Sde role can be on-site. In my mind , mostly i will reject sde role due to fear. Want to know opinions.

Thank you

Software Test - QA

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

I am looking for changing company after 5 yrs, target was big companies like Amazon, MS, Salesforce ,  gave few interview in small companies recently but failed in that badly.
I am anxious right now.

Is there anyone who can guide me what topics I should prepare for the lead QA SDET interview.

Creating a thread for SDET / QA salary comparison as I cannot find many

Hey everyone, I'd like to hear your thoughts. Have any of you successfully aced an interview solely through tutorials, YouTube, or side projects without hands-on work experience? 
I am a SDET exploring a transition to SDE role, internally tried within my company ,not happening due to various reasons, hence trying to switch over. In order to achieve that, I've worked on full-stack sidd projects, practiced DSA, and made a good "tailored" CV that gets me interview calls. But I am currently facing mixed experiences in interviews. I am able to answer a few but struggle with some questions and seek advice on how to improve. Any suggestions for this career switch are greatly appreciated! Thanks a ton
