Jab apke pass job hoti hai..... Tab apke pass openings ke itne calls ate hai ki apko lagta hai ki ekdum Raja ho gye ho ap... Log aapko hire karne ke liye taras rahe hai....!

Is it just me or roles for HR folks in the 0-3 years bracket have completely vanished? All openings I come across nowadays are 4+ YoE. 

And before one of you says “khud HR ho, khud ko hire karlo” 🫠 - wish it worked like that 🥲

P.S. If you know of any HR roles in your org, let me know, thanks!

Do you guys intentionally ghost candidates or do you guys intentionally ghost candidates? 🙂

I don't understand the need for HRs to postpone interview feedback for 2 weeks? And once you are reconnected they'll say that sorry I was on leave... Once I join back I'll update you. This can't be a coincidence it's happened atleast 2.

HRs you'll have anything to say?

Anxiety attack

An HR from Infosys just contacted me on WhatsApp and asked about my details I told them I am comfortable talking on a call rather because I will explain better about my past job profile and other details and that shameless person showed attitude and blocked me.

HRs are worse than human beings and shameless they think people are there to satisfy their ego

Software Analyst

I like someone in my office, but not getting the courage to tell that person. because i have created my image like a good person who will not do such things in the office area.

Getting questions in mind like: 
What if that person informed about this to my seniors?
What if any problem came to my career?
What to do now?

Is having a crush in the office good or bad?

Are you hot af? Then approach her. Otherwise, HR will approach you.

Hello Fine Viners- it's been 2 months now that I am actively looking for a job change. Have faced instances where the HR calls me regarding the scheduling of the interview, but vo hota hi nahi hai! Even if the interview is scheduled, I don't get an update post that call. I have rejected 2 offers (there are solid reasons to do so) and have been rejected from 2 :(

LinkedIn and IIMjobs are on a constant battle on who will give me the most rejection emails or updates. 

Anyways, I am getting a bit worried lately and wanted to know from ya'll, IS HIRING EVEN HAPPENING!? 

In case your answer to the above question is YES, then please mention your company name and mode of working (wfh, wfo or hybrid). Referral are also welcomed.

My profile: Generalist role in EdTech. 7+ YoE.

Viners- Who on Earth is Hiring??

Project Manager

Why would any company require this information? I understand they might want to do basic background check, but asking for phone number of manger during application is sneaky.

FYI, the company is Jar.

Reference of current manager for applying to job

What the hell is wrong with companies these days? They are trying to take advantage of laid off people!!

I had 2  offers from renowned companies, both of them quoted me numbers and I agreed with. And now, the HR calls me and says since you don’t have a counter offer we can’t offer you that much we promised you earlier.

Well, f*** you. I have competing offers but just got them confirmed over calls. As soon as I get them, I’m gonna kick your offer and never coming back doesn’t matter how much you pay.

And for sure, I am gonna keep you hanging till the very last moment of joining date and then just write a apology mail (which I wouldn’t even mean) saying that sorry I can’t join tomorrow. You get what you deserve.

I deserve better compensation, better people and not just the ones who goes back on their words.

F*** you again!!

F*** you Corporates

Software Developer

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!

College kids have a reality shock waiting for them

Come to Tier 3 colleges, they are very humble and hardworking 😊

Note - Not working for competitor company

In this situation where a employer can hire and fire anyone anytime, why “moonlighting” or working part time, having a business, doing something of your own should be problem?

If a employer can dump their employees anytime then they have to look for themselves, they have life, expenses, dependencies.

This is a high time companies change their points on this in appointment letters and contracts.

What do you guys think?

Why one shouldn’t work outside there company?

This person, say ABC, has been cribbing not finding an internship

I try fix one for them

Instructions I get, stipend should be 10-15k/mo, or won't do

Umm, I mean?

GenZ's (over)confidence amazes me

Thats the bare minimum pay one can expect even as an intern. Thats not overconfidence. They just don't want to do free labor and be exploited lol

Hi,

I have been working in the Software Industry for the past 9 years. I feel like I have made a good use of my time and money and maybe some of my lessons can help you folks as well. Recently did a calculation for my NW and I am happy and proud to see my NW crossing 2CR+. I have 0 debt and do not own a house. Here is how my portfolio look like

TC: 1.3 Cr
YOE: 9

I am happy to do an AMA. Ask me anything about tech, career, love, marriage, money management, therapy, songs and movies.
#Ask Me Anything #ama #amazon #atlassian #google #startups #bengaluru #networth #money management #finance #india

Sorry if delay in responses, I'll answer all your questions eventually.

[AMA] 9 years in Software Engineering in India. NW 2.5Cr

I see a lot of similar questions and I'll try to answer them here.

>>>>>>CTC Progression<<<<

My current CTC is 1.3CR . 50% is cash, 50% is stocks.

Here is my CTC progression over the years

1st - 12L
2nd - 12L (Switched Companies)
3rd - 15L 
4th - 24L (Switched companies)
5th - 42L (Switched Companies)
6th - 48L
7th - 66L
8th - 72L
9th - 1.3Cr (Switched Companies)

As you can see I almost everytimg doubled my compensation when I switched my companies. But there are reasons to stay at a company as well. If you are learning and are able to handle different problems at scale, stay. When you feel stuck, leave and look for better opportunities. I have never switched job to get more money. I love CS. I have been coding since 15 years. What made me switch was either bad managers, uninteresting problems not visibility of learning and growth.

Hello folks! 

It's Friday - would love to hear your Friday night scenes, weekend plans, or a rant on the week that went by...

What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss.
Think of it like the watercooler at your office.

Look forward to hearing from you all!

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

Corporate catfishing? More companies are posting realistic job listings that don't exist. 

Companies doing this are trying to trick employees into thinking the company is growing and that they are hiring more workers to alleviate their workload. This is not only manipulative, but immoral. 

If you want to increase productivity and alleviate stress in your office, start by showing appreciation for your employees and encouraging them.

Share some companies you might know that have been doing this.

That job you applied for, might not exist !!

Hi, I'm working as a Frontend Dev for the past 3 years. Have good understanding and in-depth knowledge of things in JavaScript, React. 
Mentored folks/peers, cracked couple of offers from startups and other companies in the past. 
However, in my initial days I always wanted to be an ANDROID DEVELOPER, learnt Java, Kotlin Android Concepts till MVVM approach. 
Nowadays, as the Frontend domain is getting more cluttered, I'm thinking to move to Android domain considering the competition would be lesser there. 
Or start REACT NATIVE. 
Need some suggestion here. 
TIA

Switch to native Android development

Hi Grapeviners, I have ten years of work ex in performance marketing and CRM. I started job search actively from Feb 15 this year and landed first interview today. 

How bad is the market out there. I usually get hired with in 30 job applications, also I apply to the role only if 70% and above role match with my previous experience also use referrals when available.

Also please roast my resume https://stonedmind.tiiny.site/ have redacted wherever necessary to stay anonymous as possible. For the first time in my career I have a doubt that my resume might not be upto the mark

Please let me know your views in the comments. Any help is appreciated.

To land 1 interview it took 60 job applications

Being a tier 3 college grad, It took me 700 applications to get 25 shortlists, and only 7 interview calls. Converted all of them. 
  
 Sometimes you’re just not allowed to participate in the race 🙂
