Need guidance. Please help!
I worked for the first 3 years of my career as an SDE at a bank. I was allocated to an internal tooling team which meant that I got no exposure to cloud technologies like AWS, architectures like microservices and frameworks like Spring Boot which are in high demand today. I wasn't even allowed a team change in that bank. To compensate for this lack of experience, I created a basic project from scratch involving these technologies. But still, my resume is not getting shortlisted at any premier company for SDE/SDE2 positions. I would really appreciate if you guys could please suggest a way forward for me and help me out. Thanks!
Work a bit more on personal projects but more importantly get a job that will get you that exposure and move to the next one which you actually want.
If your end goal is to work at Amazon, then try something in between to get that exposure and move to amazon in next switch.
At least you'd have proper work ex in those things that next company cant deny.
Thanks for your response. I actually am in my second company now which works on microservices stack. Have got good relevant experience here but the dilemma is that my resume is still not getting shortlisted.
What's your tech stack? I can refer you we have immediate requirements. For SDE1/2
