Job Switching Advice
Hi, I have been working in Infosys for past 3.5yrs. my starting salary wad 5lpa and now it's 8lpa. I feel I should be compensated more based on work that I put into my projects for which the most feasible option would be to switch. Hence, I need some advice related to job-switching from fellow software engineers who have already been able to do that. My skills are Java-spring boot , react , sql, github copilot, kubernetes, What other skills do I need to know to be able switch comfortably? Kindly suggest some websites where I should be applying from. In the coming days maybe after March would be good time to apply, don't you think?
What scope do I have in product based companies? TIA
You can get good
-
Create a good resume. No matter how many jobs you apply for, it won't be fruitful without a good resume.
-
Start with neetcode 150. Don't rush through it, take your time and prepare well, these will be helpful for at least the next 5-10 yrs in your career.
-
once you are confident start applying via multiple portals like LinkedIn, InstaHyre, Consultant Recruitment Firms like HuntingCube and via referrals.
-
Check if any interview experiences are found for the company you are currently interviewing at leetcode or glassdoor or geeks for geeks.
-
Try to get multiple offers if you feel you deserve more or if the company is not offering much.
Currently the job market is bad for people with <5 yrs experience, be patient, keep on grinding and keep on applying.
Good luck.
Apply on LinkedIn, Instahyre. Start applying now, it takes time to find a good offer. Any new skill that you add without experience will hold less value than what you've worked on. Unless you can pull it off in the interview - saying you've worked on this before. Good luck!
