My dear bf is a highly skilled but undercompensated man. He is a Quality Assurance Engineer at Enel TC: 150k. 8yoe. Masters in Industrial Engineering. Past LockHeed Martin. We both have agreed that for his skill set and yoe he is being underpaid. He is a shy guy who doesn’t ask for help much. I saw him polishing his resume, but when I asked him if I could post on his behalf for referral and advice, he said no because he feels he is “underqualified” for FAANG or similar. So here I am NOT asking for advice, hiring opportunities and referrals for him. His passion: He is passionate about the markets and extremely skilled in high level technical analysis of markets. He has his own indicator and spends hours perfecting tools to measure markets. I think he will fit well in either 1. another QA role with better TC or 2. Transition fully into a role related to his passion If anybody can offer referrals for roles and hiring opportunities for him. I would be happy to NOT send his resume over. #tech #privateequity #qa #finance #investmentbanking #referrals #jobhunt
Weird post
but ok
Very helpful, thanks
Get him to throw together some algo trading/quant finance scripts on GitHub to show off his coding abilities and passion for the markets, and then apply to HFT firms/private equity - Jane Street, Two Sigma etc. You’ll be happy to hear they pay top dollar
Lol is that all it takes
The two of you should ditchzone each other.
Feel bad for you
I'm confused, because 150k as a QA for a generic company honestly sounds pretty decent. Do you think QAs are making 500k a year or something?
Everyone is making 500K, according to blind
Unless a QA is doing something very niche that big tech has a demand for it , it won’t go up very much, since there is a growing movement of creating more resilient system and SWE owning features end to end. I imagine QA jobs will change in nature or will become obsolete .
Did he master his job? I would recommend to not look for a new role right now given the economic conditions, rather he should stick to his job and bite the bullet for another year until we are out of this storm. New hires are the first our the door if the shit hits the fan Just my 2c
Jokes apart, if you’re serious about referrals, I can refer him at Apple. You can ask him to check for open roles and DM me. Happy to help:))
How dare you. OP is dead serious, even capitalizing the NOT part. We should respect OP’s wish.
Don’t worry we are NOT going to help you
Can I NOT dm you?
You can NOT
You asking for referrals or not?
Absolutely am lol
Not asking for referral? Not send resume over? What are you asking? Very confused.
Referrals and resume review.
