People at Big Techs, how to get shortlisted(SWE)?- Grapevine

I am a senior Data engineer(9YOE) and have worked on a large scale Data warehousing, Spark, Orchestration(Airflow) and visualization on AWS and Azure. I currently don't have scope for tech stack improvement in my current org and would like to learn and implement my personal projects. So far, I have been advised to learn golang and kubernetes so that I could deploy ML models in the future or even move into observability space. Any suggestions on what tech stack I should learn? I want to jump to startups in a couple of months and eventually move into a pure software engineering role. 
Already working on leetcode and practicing system design for the same.

Senior Data Engineer-Which Tech stack to upskill?

Data engineer

I work in a startup, been here for around 3 yrs. I have been applying continuously for a long time and am not even getting an interview call (Even with referrals sometimes)...
Is it my resume? But ATS parses it just fine? Maybe I have too much written in it.
I don't have a flashy college, company. That clearly hurts my chances, but what could I do now? 

I'm working on random projects I find interesting on the side, and thinking of posting some on linkedin for now. What else do you think I should do?

How to get shortlisted in top tech companies?

Software Developer

Hi all, I have around 2 years of experience, and I am getting a chance to interview with Google. I am currently working on frontend, but I want to move to backend and I have been preparing for that, but with phone screen round coming up, if I tell them I have worked on Frontend, then I will definitely be considered for frontend role and if I lie there, then I might fuck up interview if they ask backend questions, any suggestions will be appreciated. What should I be doing in this case, Thank you! 
Please advise!

SDE1s and Job switch

Hello friends 
Hope the title is self explanatory
Some context, I am a SDE - 2 with 3 yoe and my resume never gets shortlisted . 
Whatever interviews I had given were because of recruiters reaching out to me on LinkedIn. 
I’m from a Tier 1 college and have good ratings on codechef and CF 
I’m so confused seeing people talk about how they get 1-2 calls a day. 
Could someone please let me know what could be the issue? 
I apply to companies like Stripe, Postman, coin base , msft etc

How to get Resume Shortlisted

Hi,
I am a 2023 passout btech graduate. Currently I am working as a full time SDE (Full Stack) in a well established startup (8 years old , Series A funded). It's been nearly half year here.

My compensation is 10.5 lakh base + 4.5 lakh performance bonus + free lunch and snacks + Insurance (Including parents) benefits 

I am pretty good at DSA (around 2000 rating on leetcode, 4 Star at codechef in 2nd year itself, 2000+ dsa problems)

I have worked in 2 startups as an SDE intern during college days and completed 5 internships overall out of which one was a US based startup. Also, I have many publications under my name over the internet.

I had many offers when I was graduating from college.

Most of the time people say, "Hey, you have done so much so Why are you not working in a big tech". Well I always wanted to work for big tech during college days but after I started working in startups my thought process changed  as here I got the ownership of the product.

Now it has been nearly 1 year since I started working in startups. Should I give it a try for big tech now?

Would like to hear your views guys

Am I doing something wrong?

I'm actively searching for SDE-2 roles for more than 2 months now.  I have 2+ yrs of experience. From almost all the companies I'm getting rejected at resume level itself even tho I'm having relevant experience. Any tips on how to fastrack this and get interview calls?

Not getting any callbacks

One who is entering into Product role in B2B company. What should they be focusing on initial days to get well versed with the Product and what's is the scope of PMs in India in this domain for next decade?
