Looking for genuine and non diplomatic answers since it will be anonymous. It is upto you to reveal the name of the company you resigned from.

Lets discuss!!! I will go first -

I quit my last organisation (a famous UPI company) in 2020 because, they still are in old technology. No cloud computing, no kubernates, no terraform. Their entire baremetal infra are in 2 DCs (Mumbai and Bangalore). Leadership ideas are outdated. I was very much bored and looking for a change.

Why did you resign?

Just curious, does college tier affect the pay you get for the same role (say SDE1) in big tech like Amazon, Microsoft, etc. ?

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Recently set out to hire interns and had a really strange experience

Went through about 170 CVs. Most were shabbily formatted - which is okay, I understand most people aren’t that serious in college.

But then after shortlisting and setting up interviews:
- Multiple kids just did not show up for the interview. They did not even write a mail excusing themselves. Or reply to any mail from me about them missing the call.

- Some of them literally turned up for the call on their phone. They’re mostly well to do, and definitely have laptops. But just casual. 

- This reduced my selection pool to literally 8-9 interns from 180. Of these too, generally saw most of them had too much overconfidence and arrogance about them. Barely went into the depth of the answers, and would over-portray their contribution in past projects/internships, without being able to explain what they really did

I am genuinely shocked and taken aback. These were all Tier 1 college kids, and I just did not expect it to be so bad. A shock for me, and a future shock for many of these kids when they get into the workforce!

Product Manager

Most of the queries asked here should be sorted easily if an HR can respond with their insights, but i rarely see any HR participating in discussions, maybe we don't have that many HR's here ?

Or 

maybe you folks want to stay the same as you are on the job, totally useless.

Aren't there enough HR's users on grapevine? I hardly see you folks responding to queries?

Was interviewing at a startup for founder's office role - quoted Tier 1 CTC for the role, the CEO started asking me my college's avg placement(Tier 3) and profiles that are offered, and completely ignored the fact that i had interned for 1+ year in good startups.

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

So i approached a PM at klub, a revenue based financing firm & asked him about open positions. He forwarded my cv to the hr.

Couple of days later, the hr called me & we had an initial discussion. Then he scheduled an intro round with a PM.

I had the PM round which was completely behavioral. It seemed like he was not much interested in the interview & took it just for the sake of it. Questions like tell me about yourself, why klub, why PM were asked.

2 weeks later i called the hr(yes, there were no responses from them) & asked him whats the status to which he replied, we have proceeded with another candidate.

*Here comes the interesting part*

I asked him to provide me a reason because i didnt get any feedback from the PM. This is the conversation which happened
He: we are looking for pm with experience in api integrations only
Me: okay so why was that not mentioned in the JD
He: the requirement was changed later & also you dont have the experience required(1-3 yrs)
Me: so why did you contact me in the 1st place if you thought i didnt have enough experience? Also, there are 2 guys who are working at klub who are from consulting background & have no experience whatsoever but they're apm
He: but you need to understand that they are from tier 1 college, bits pilani & iit madras
Me: how does that make a difference in product experience? I have worked on & built real products even if its for 10 months, all they have are hypothetical case studies, its not like they have been entrepreneur at past
He: no we have specific requirements & the hiring manager didn't see yours as a fit

Hr will hire people with no experience but from a premium college than people with experience but from a not so known college

The mindset of some recruiters nowadays

I joined a startup in 2021 with a 6 LPA package. After about a year I learnt that one of my colleague, who had joined 3 month before me, and who's from the same batch (2021) as mine is being paid 12 LPA for the same role, even though I'm much better than him in terms of programming knowledge and development skills. Learning that killed all the motivation I had to work and now I feel cheated and deceived. How should I deal with this situation ?

I'm being paid 50% of colleague for the same role.

As someone from a tier-3 college, is it possible for me to bag a good job and slowly climb the ladder and make 30L, 40L like some of you do?

Is this IIT branding so needed even today to get a job at top companies? 

I have huge regrets for fucking up JEE mains now.
