Best way to get overseas interview call? SDE. FAANGM.
Title says it all.
Has anybody here moved from India to UK/Canada/US as a lateral hire? (Not with internal switch).
How did you land the interview? Did you use LinkedIn, Referral, Applied on careers, How?
Do the career sites really work?
YOE matters?
Are you happy there?
How much time does it take from the time you apply till you board the flight?
What companies are the best to target (who'd sponsor visa) in UK and CAN?

TC: 25L YOE: 2 IIT CSE
P.S: Indian SDE life is sad and full of misery. Challenge me in the replies. Or Roast me. Whatever.

Agree on that, was just saying that not all 30-35 tcs are inflated as you said.
Was just wondering on what the misery and sadness is.
I'm in India and hate working here.
That being said, I have seen most people with less than 2 yoe in current company or less than 4/5 yoe overall get rejected by USCIS or US consulates for L1.
Other countries might be easier.
I can't travel without worrying about my bank balance.
There can be a counter comment that I should invest, grow my money and all. But US pays insane for the same (or slightly more hectic in your case) work.
Also, I don't plan to settle in US (maybe come back after 6-8 years). Don't want green card.
I've witnessed people coming back from US having a fairly comfortable (or unachievable) financial wall.
