I have seen that I am not easily getting interviews for backend development roles. I want to pursue backend but should I drop that idea and go for Full Stack roles or are there specific companies I can target which will be open to my skill set for backend roles.
<Java, Go, AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, Kafka> Ctrl V Ctr C this and get ready for interviews.
Your backend skills are old. Add Go, Rust, Scala, etc.
@RrWs73 - Thanks for the input. Will look in to it. Does that mean it (Java...) is no longer widely used or it is good to add Go, Rust, Scala on the resume.
Java is widely used but won’t get hiring managers excited like it did in 1999
