How to find foreign Opportunities? (currently SE-2 in Paypal India)
Hi blind, I am currently working as SE-2 @Paypal. I joined this June only and had competing offer from Amazon India but decided to go forward with Paypal. After joining found people are getting in with much better offers and hiring manager told me this is the best he could do for my role even though my Amazon offer was much better than Paypal's. I am thinking of starting searching new opportunities but I want to move out of India for next 4-5 years. Can anyone please suggest which companies and locations I should target. And how should approach this job hunt. Thanks, Tc - Rs. 23.5 LPA YOE- 2.5 #engineering #software #swe #career #opportunities
Why did you choose pp over amazon?
Kept reading about amazon's PIP cluture and the wlb was also not great
You do not come off as a risk taker. I would recommend you to find a rest and vest haven in India like MS and "thrive" there
Would you mind sharing tc breakup?
These really are noob numbers. I was offered double those for se2 still didn't join
Congrats man. I was coming from service based organisation. Even getting interview calls was very hard.
bruh Amazon's tc would havr been double of that
Amazon offered SDE1 but offer was almost 1.5 times
yeah try a year later, amazon sde2 comp is great
was Amazon sde 2 or sde 1 offer for you?
I asked for sde2 interview but recruiter said they won't consider someone with less than 2years of experience as SDE2
I am getting calls from amazon recruiters and google recruiters as well but want to find foreign Opportunities as it will be easier for me to move to new country and explore being single.
Amazon and Google calls everyone nowadays dude. That does not mean you are awesome. Just a fact I stated overall. If you want foreign, Berlin has lot of it.
Thanks for your input. And how are taxes in berlin if you are aware ?
Berlin taxes are insane, but it's not that expensive to live there.
Try uber Amsterdam, pay is great and easy to get interviews
I have heard they are trying to recruit more in india and not entertaining applications were visa is their concern. May be I am wrong. Bt will definitely try that
Amazon Dublin Germany and Luxembourg hire directly from India. Hey a referral there and don't waste time on Amazon India
Booking, Miro
Amazon is great at hiring people and sending them all over the world. That's an easier path.

Are people in Bangalore so desperate that theyβll work in Estonia and Dubai?
is this the best input that you could come with?
