Just landed a 60 LPA job at 2.6 YOE

Feeling extremely humbled and blessed, I landed an amazing offer. My interview preparation started way back in Dec last year. I want to give back to society, happy to help or discuss.

Basic question:How to find jobs paying 60lpa or more ? Popular job portals like naukri and LinkedIn often only display listings up to 40-45 lpa

I didn’t had a number in mind before my job search. I focussed on getting SDE2 at big tech and fortunately I cracked one. I still feel Linkedin is the best source, there aren’t that many high paying companies on Naukri.

Hey, can you help me with these?

  1. Did you go to a top engineering college like IIT, NIT, or IISc?
  2. Can you share a Google Docs link with all the resources you used to prepare for OOPS, LLD, and HLD?
  3. Do you think a high score on the Aptitude Test is necessary for your resume? If yes, what tools did you use to prepare and what was your score?

PS. Started my prep recently, these will be really helpful.

  1. Yes
  2. HLD-Alex Xu+Gaurav Sen
  3. None of the companies for which I interviewed for had an aptitude test or they cared for, so I think this shouldn’t matter.

There are only 4 things to master.

  1. DSA
  2. OOPS & LLD
  3. HLD
  4. Past projects

I gave a ton of interviews and found out in every loop only these 4 things were asked, if you are applying for SDE1 you can skip HLD but for SDE2+ HLD and knowing your projects in detail is a must. DSA is the most important one because at each level they expect us to know DSA.

I studied DSA, LLD and HLD. I did a lot of interviews, typically at >2 YOE you will have 1 DSA 1 LLD 1 HLD and 1 HM round. Your performance in HLD & LLD rounds will decide what level you get.

How did you approach the LLD and HLD problem becoz even after preparing how you present solution matters? Any mock interview you had or direct interviews?

Congratulations for the offer and all the best for the bright future ahead. Can you help me with some Resume refining tips? Linkedin profile related suggestions? I rarely get contacted by recruiters of big tech companies and I hear so many people mentioning that they got contacted by HRs on linkedin. I mean what all things they look in Linkedin profile and we can keep those things well in place for recruiters to get attracted or at least give us an opportunity.

  1. Keep your best things on the top of resume.
  2. Try to add metrics in your resume points.
  3. Try to add achievements.

Nope. This is very low. You should be earning atleast 4 CR per year at this age, else you will end up poor.

Thanks for posting this. Otherwise I only see posts like- "I have 2 YOE with 30LPA salary, is it less?".

user

This actually is the reality that most of these ZIRP era Gen-Z babies wouldn't get.
