Got an offer from Citrix as systems engineer. However I'm interested in development and working towards it and I'll be there, ready for software engineer interview in 3-4 months. Thinking of accepting the systems engineer offer and try to switch internally to development team in few months as internal hire. Wondering if that is allowed at Citrix. Or if I should wait and directly interview for software engineer role in few months as an external hire. Currently in consulting, and don't want to do it anymore. So need to switch at any cost which is why desperately looking. YoE: 2 TC: 88k Citrix offer: 125k
True on failing at the resume check. You’re more likely to succeed on an internal transfer. From what i’ve seen it’s much easier to do that
You have to wait a minimum of a year. If you jump to a different Vp, it gets political
You can always switch internally if there is headcount in that other role, but why not apply for that role in the first place? If there is headcount, tuen chances are that role is already open/posted at present
Nah.... That doesn't work. You can go with Internal switching To a different role a lot more easily than applying for a less relevant role. The chances your resume might not even get picked
Exactly. I did apply, but as dookdook mentioned, the resume didn't got picked.
