Hello Blinders, TLDR - Current work experience has messed up my profile for SDE roles at product based companies. Need guidance to improve the same. I am currently working as an SDE at the above mentioned company. But my work profile can be considered similar to a manual tester at best. I have a Java based work experience but I am fairly proficient in C++ and Python too. I also have a decent problem solving experience having solved around 150 Medium + Hard questions on Leetcode and I feel that I am pretty confident with most of the DSA topics having participated in some competitive programming competitions during my undergrad. I have tried changing my profile multiple times but internal mobility is almost non-existent at my current company. I have also applied to multiple startups and product based companies (close to 120 positions) in India for the Backend Developer role but even my resume has not been accepted at any place due to my work profile. As a result, I am quite depressed since my experience has stagnated for the past 2 years. So, I would be really grateful if the kind people of Blind can guide me on ways to enhance my profile for product based companies in India. TC - 11 YOE - 3 Thanks. #engineering #software #swe #productbasedcompanies #startups #guidance #advice #sde #backend #tech #softwareengineer
Op can I please ping you? I fee you man :(
You can block out all your personal info (name, contact info, college name) and share your resume for an anonymous review on this platform It might help in identifying things which aren't working in your favor for ATS/resume screening Also, referrals help!
Thanks for your advice. But, I have already had it reviewed by some of my friends at product based companies and incorporated the suggested changes. Though, I will do it again on this platform. Also, I had applied through referrals at some of these companies but to no avail. IMO, the problem is with my work profile and not with the way my resume is written. Really grateful for your advice! Thanks ☺️
