Laid off from Cognizant.

Hello everyone, I was asked to resign a few day back as i was on the bench for a couple of days. I was constantly looking for a project and wanted to switch from QA and Testing to Developer role, but couldn’t find. I have resigned and now looking for job opportunities on Naukri, linkedIn, timesjob etc. If anyone come across any opportunity please comment me or message me, it’ll mean a lot. I have attached my resume in the post. You have a good day!

Full address, English Hindi, hobbies, nationality place of birth... Lucknow, 226010, India...

Not a single line about education. Nobody can tell if you did a Btech, BComm, BA or BDS. Your pincode can't take priority over it.

You write your role as a Software Engineer but nothing about your work description says that you can write code, or have any experience with production applications.

How does solving leetcode become a part of your work highlights at Cognizant. "I joined few courses on Udemy..." is the same as watching a few YT videos.

I'm just trying to help here. The resume is off putting and if I were a recruiter, I wouldn't dare show it to my manager.

You need to make a new resume first. And just don't fill it up with irrelevant crap. It'll just make it tougher for any recruiter to place it in front of a panel.

I understand your passion but this is definitely not a resume i would prefer even if i have a relevant opening.

The big redflags :
Twitter and Naukri links
No mention of your education
No clarity of what you did in the jobs
