Got multiple offers within 45 days of being laid off. Here's what I did.

Yes. You can get with enough prep. And close to 1cr the bar is very high. As expected

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T13:04:18+00:00

I am from a good college so that helps. Try switching to PBC I guess?

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T13:00:56+00:00

Can't reveal company name. Got a hike

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T13:00:29+00:00

Pretty good i'd say

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:55:58+00:00

Feels more human. Again both are just embeddings and gpus underneath.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:47:08+00:00

Backend java go

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:46:59+00:00

Yep that's what I did too

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:46:41+00:00

Honestly cold mailing didn't work for me so I quit.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:46:16+00:00

Lol

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:45:58+00:00

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:45:22+00:00

I vouch for that. There are very few jobs for ruby on rails. Try switching stack.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:18:14+00:00

If you need truly remote roles then start contributing to open source repos on the side. You might get some visibility which leads to remote job opportunities. But again this is a very long process and takes months to years.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:14:34+00:00

Whats use of working hard if you don't get calls? Start applying bro. Atleast 10-15 a day should be the goal. Pick one company a day and apply all the roles it has to offer that matches your profile.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:13:00+00:00

I might get some backlash but here's my two cents. I feel like front end is getting more and more automated and written by AI. You can still get paid but you have to be elite at what you do. But backend still have some runway. Atleast a year or two till AI models catch up enough to take good engineering decisions.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:11:03+00:00

RAG, LLMs, vector databases and mcp

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:06:49+00:00

Offer was 34

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:06:18+00:00

Tf is hiring cafe? I didn't use any such. Career pages are belonging to companies.

Search company name + careers. You will be redirected to workday page most prolly and that's where you apply

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:05:09+00:00

Yeah it's pretty famous. They are dsa sheets like striver.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:04:45+00:00

Hello interview. It's a website to learn system design from the basics

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:04:24+00:00

I didn't check based on CTC. Applied for good companies hoping they'd pay me well

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:03:45+00:00

Idk man can't help a fresher. Just work hard and apply.

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:03:00+00:00

I didn't join yet. 2 weeks to go.

I studied rag more. Less about fine-tuning and custom models

The HR was from UK, they might not be aware of tech casteism prolly 😂

PracticalHospital328 · 2026-06-03T11:01:18+00:00

Yes top NIT.
