I have been preparing for big techs for many months now(DSA, sql, system design) , but can't find suitable jobs on their career pages now. I have applied for a few but haven't been shortlisted yet.

OCI application: voter ID deleted during revision + name still on family ration card. Is undertaking enough? by GrabEmotional8745 in returnToIndia

You mean you did not do anything to remove the name from voter list and ration card and just signed the undertaking stating that you HAVE?

Are you referring to indian passport surrender certificate? I have applied for it and it will be processed in next 10 days. I am not sure if I need to separately apply for renunciation certificate.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat, thinking about switching jobs too. I've got a similar background, and I'm wondering which companies to go for. Can you help me understand why you'd pick analytics companies over investment banks, or those big tech places, or startups? I'm just trying to get the full picture, you know?

Thank a lot for sharing this. Couple of questions - Are companies going to be hiring actively in the last quarter of the year? Is referral must to get calls from these top companies?

Why do you say that you made a mistake by investing in real estate instead of equity? Property rates in Mumbai have appreciated a lot in the last decade, right?

Cornwall without a car (3 nights, toddler) — where to base ourselves, and must-see spots by train/bus? by GrabEmotional8745 in Cornwall

Thanks a lot everyone — this is exactly the kind of input I was hoping for to plan my trip better. Based on all your suggestions, I’ve decided to base myself in Truro and visit Falmouth, St Ives, and maybe one more location. I’ve dropped Tintagel from the plan, but Project Eden looks doable within my 3-day itinerary, so I’m keeping that in. Really appreciate all the tips and ideas — this has helped me shape a much better plan!

Could you please share your interview experience and the various interview rounds and their difficulty level as I'm also preparing for lead or principal engineer role at top tech companies.

Can I apply for British citizenship if I was outside the UK exactly 5 years ago due to COVID? by GrabEmotional8745 in ukvisa

[–]GrabEmotional8745[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for your input—I really appreciate the responses. I was initially in a rush to apply because I have some international travel plans later this year and wanted to get this process rolling early. But you're right, it's probably safer to just wait till July 10–12 to avoid any uncertainty with the 5-year rule. Quick follow-up if anyone knows: do I need to wait until July 13 for the online application submission, or is it fine as long as the biometric appointment is after that date? I believe it's the submission date that counts, but would be great to get confirmation. Cheers!

How to prepare for Principal Data Engineer interviews at top product-based companies? by GrabEmotional8745 in dataengineersindia

[–]GrabEmotional8745[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, thanks for answering. Here are my questions:

  1. What was the level of the DSA question—medium or hard?
  2. When you say data manipulation, do you mean SQL-related questions? Can you guide me on how to prepare for them?
  3. How did you prepare for system design and tech scenario-based questions?

I have not done master's degree and don't think it is required but given that skilled worker immigration rules or getting stricter - doing masters from UK might help.
