SWE with 2 yoe and am not really liking my current environment. How feasible is it to get a new job right now? Anyone else with similar yoe hop recently. Also looking to move TC ~195
You should definitely try. Blind is not the entire world.
Nope too hard save your job
You looking for a job or something?
I have 3 YOE. resigned from my last job for some personal problem. Got an offer after 6 months. Thousands of applications and only 3/4 interviews. I would suggest not to move without getting an offer.
Yes. Or no. Maybe.
There are interviews out there, you can apply and see if you can land a job.
Tbh, reach out to your network for referrals and just start applying while you’re working. I hit a point where I send like 5-10 apps a week
Why are you leaving Microsoft in this job market?
Microsoft doesn’t have good refreshers, my TC will drop hard by EoY. May as well see what opportunities exist. If something seems interesting, I apply. I don’t have to take it.
Yoe4.5 Been getting auto rejects… how do people even land a recruiter call these days lol
Same position. It’s kinda hard, I’ve been applying for weeks. May need patience b/c sometimes you dont hear from the position you applied to after 2-3 weeks. I haven’t even landed an interview yet. But I’m not trying to get discouraged so I’m still trying and applying, wishing you the best too
Did you update your LinkedIn? I recently updated mine and I get a recruiter message everyday. But I have 8-9 yoe and they're all Senior roles
Yes it’s updated. I’ve started getting recruiter messages as I reach the 2 year mark it seems. Maybe one a week though
Location?
Looking to relocate to nyc but open to west coast as well
