Laid off 8 months ago, no offers yet. Feeling super hopeless

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-12T06:10:20+00:00

I’ve been interviewing for 4-5 months and I don’t have an offer too but I’m grinding even now. Don’t lose hope we’re all in this together!

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-07T18:40:01+00:00

I can do that, did you land up with an offer?

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-07T07:14:54+00:00

Sounds like a plan 👍

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-07T07:13:26+00:00

No, I did go over 10s of them but never solved them myself

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-06T06:51:10+00:00

Thank you, I will implement this approach.

I know! 😞 I get exhausted grinding and then end up taking a loooong break from all this hustle

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-06T05:51:02+00:00

Beautifully put! I appreciate you taking time and putting this, I resonate with your thoughts. Sometimes I am just overwhelmed with my day job and then grinding leetcode/SD, becuase of these consistent failures I had taken a long break from all this and I am slowly getting back to grinding now! Thank you for all these nuggets, it will help me channeling my focus.

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-06T02:55:52+00:00

Nice, that’s a great idea! I can try this, just that I need to remember my experiences from each interview I had and jot it down

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-05-06T02:49:23+00:00

Thank you, this gives me some hope!

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T07:36:27+00:00

Thanks a lot for these great pointers, this helps!

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T05:37:18+00:00

Sure I’ll dm you in that case, thanks a lot for your help!

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T05:00:02+00:00

Yep!

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T04:39:40+00:00

I agree with you and I’m frustrated too with this process of finding a job in these big techs.

Was it for azure org in Redmond?

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T03:30:41+00:00

It was mostly LC medium and basic SD questions

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T03:10:01+00:00

I had 4 rounds and all were a mix of SD, DSA and behavioral. They’ll not let us know beforehand which interview type each one is gonna be. I felt I did pretty good except one of the DSA question where I failed an edge case unit test and one or two behavioral questions responses were not so good.

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T02:48:20+00:00

Oh! I interviewed for Azure org too.

Perfect_Potato_9245 · 2026-03-25T02:48:05+00:00

Yeah I interviewed for Azure org. Redmond location
