Has anyone ever gotten a job by posting on Reddit or Twitter about being open to work? I’ve seen people do it and get leads but I’m nervous to try. Is it worth putting yourself out there like that?

I can only picture this working if you have a big following on Twitter, or if you've got a really impressive resume and know how to craft a viral post on reddit. Those stories always sound like complete clickbait to me. I would think you'd have better luck doing this on LinkedIn, and even then, I wouldn't expect interview requests to start flying in.

I have never done this but now I kind of want to. I am desperate to find a role at this point. I would do anything just to find something fully remote.

what type of role or industry you’re targeting? Once I know that, I can connect you with a highly regarded career source specialist, Jesse, whose network and expertise align with that space. He’s helped many professionals in similar situations and can advise on opportunities that fit your background and goals.

I’m curious: what kind of roles or industries are you exploring?

Hi Fishes,

I have given my interview in HCL and cleared 1 TP, 1 hcl manager & Client TP and Client Manager rounds .
In initial screening HR told the generic statement of 30-40% and I have given my ask as 50% minimum. After clearing the rounds I heard from the project team that Client has given great feedback and wanted to take me in .
What is the % I can ask in HR Discussion and will they reject in HR if I ask more now .
I have 9.5 years total experience and role is Storage Architect.
Thanks

I received an offer for 80k to work as a desktop engineer for TCS at one of their client’s locations. However, I have seen poor reviews for working at TCS and I’d like to get some feedback from anyone currently or had previously worked for that company.

However, I am worried if I accept the tech role and I do not become permanent I will be looking again for a job in 12-24 months and my CV won't be showing a managerial position. Won't be showing any progress.
