  • There is no minimum time. You can apply immediately. However it’s recommended that you atleast complete one performance review(spend atleast 6 months) in current team.

    OP
    I heard that Managers in Hyderabad do not hire ppl who switch teams so soon in 6mons, they are all ganged up informally to discourage ppl switching teams. Or they even reject people before starting Tech interviews that u don't have right growth mindset, etc random gyan.

    • Can totally believe that. Changing teams/orgs is all about connections.
      Not just moving teams, promotions hikes everything is all about connections here.
