Hi Fishes,🐠🐟🐬🦈🐳🐋🐡
Let's hear about your journey, how did you land in US/UK/EU/Canada etc. from India? preferably direct hire with Visa sponsorship.
Pls do share company name & country, Job portals.
Also it would be great to hear some do's and don'ts
Hopefully it will help someone who is/are planning for migration and will help him/her to plan better.

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.

Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕
