Applied for some remote SWE I & II positions at Microsoft a couple months ago but didn't bother completing the online technical screen until a few days ago. A recruiter contacted me saying I passed and scheduled three interviews for next week for the role Senior Principal Engineer. I have over 10 years of experience in SW but don't feel qualified for the role. I'd hate to think the recruiter is just using me to fulfill a rejection quota. Should I still go forward with the interviews?

Does anyone have any insight on WPromote LA? I see they are hiring but wanted some intel on culture and client base before I move forward. Thoughts?

What factors go into the initial offer Google makes? Is it interview performance, YOE, etc? And how are they weighted?

Offered lead engineer designation for 4.7 YOE .they normally offer this position E1.2 band ??

Hi, I did interview with amazon.

Round 1: HR round. cleared.

Round 2: Hiring manager round. Went well.

After 2 weeks they said Role no longer available. It was L5 supply chain role. This happened in April. Can I apply again in Amazon? I joined a company 3 months ago, does it look bad in CV to leave again in 3 months? I hv a 6 month gap in career in 2019 due to lay off (covid). total exp 9 yrs. SCM exp 6 yrs.

Got a referral to BCG and still haven’t had anybody follow up to screen or interview me. It’s been two weeks now. Lol do I give up all hope? How long does this usually take?

Hi guys,

I switched 20 days back to Optum. I have 7 years of experience working as a full stack Engineer, who is passionate working on both front end and back end on latest technologies. But my project is working only on back end with 10 years old tech stack. There is no front end work at all. What should I do?
I don't like working here at all, but I am not sure whether moving out again in a month will give bad Impression on my resume. Hence please give me advice on this situation
