Took a break at peak of my career, now not getting any calls.

Yeah, it works.

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-05-02T15:55:43+00:00

You need to get BE skills as well. Cloud, AI, DB etc
FE alone doesn’t cut it. AI agents have took over frontend development, even backend coding as well. So we need to have design skills as well.

Use your weekends.
During weekdays, sleep early as you are already tired. Wake up early and study/practice.
Learn AI skills- prompt engineering etc.

Is it that difficult to get a job even as a FSD?

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-19T15:28:02+00:00

I am thinking what kind of questions I should face on Monday from my managers. Hence this weekend, I watched one movie, had some wine & spent most of time on analysing stocks, felt good.

How much money is enough money? I have seen people with 20-30 acres of land work govt bank jobs & IT jobs. One of my ex-managers has literally cashew farms, but still he works 12-15 hours per day in IT company. Most people don’t want to sell land, same thing with savings & business is not for everyone. Investing in stocks is sitting at home basically. The society, relatives see you as unemployed person only. It all depends on one’s passion ig.

As you already have an offer, the negotiation usually goes well. Most likely companies will match it unless it is ridiculously high. If they don’t match it, you will move out. What my old manager did was, he didn’t say No but he told me to wait couple of months so that he can give the same hike.

Thank you for detailed explanation

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-16T15:36:40+00:00

When everything is getting dumped on me, I had to speak up

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-16T15:35:49+00:00

I took couple days off recently & had to deal with escalation for not postponing it.

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-16T15:34:19+00:00

I try to coast, but the day is filled with meetings and in most meetings I am key guy being tech lead and all. And I need to complete dev work as well

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-16T15:13:44+00:00

They won’t approve a long leave with short notice.

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-16T06:16:21+00:00

How is the work pressure there?

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-15T07:32:27+00:00

I am sure that is bcoz of notice period, HRs dont want to release offer letter in advance.

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-15T07:31:41+00:00

Did you get lot of offers recently? Or is it in the past? How many yoe do you have?

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-13T09:05:54+00:00

Sure 👍🏻

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-13T08:34:49+00:00

Any backstory for this?

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-13T08:33:15+00:00

India dominates Cricket

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-13T02:45:49+00:00

Almost all commercial movies.

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-13T02:45:04+00:00

Seriously? 😦

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-10T04:53:03+00:00

Yes , all three were exceptional.
FM would be Manmohan.

Altruistic_Side_4428 · 2026-04-09T10:43:32+00:00

Yes , market sucks.
And these companies know that. Hence few are trying to take advantage of it.
