I've taken courses on career counseling and maybe can help you with your resume formatting and such. LinkedIn is a good place to get referrals if you find a specific company and position you like you can usually find the hiring manager or other staff to first get a referral then message the hiring manager directly it ups your chances by a pretty significant margin!

Hi everyone

I have cleared three round of interviews in VMware for a business analyst position. One primary screening and two technical rounds. One more round is scheduled for further discussion. So is it a technical round or not. Also how many rounds are there going to happen.

Have interviews set up at FAANG co and getting good signals, for a position that was posted widely (all across US) but not remote. Haven’t broached the subject of location yet. Would you (1) early on clearly state that you’re not open to relocation but that you would be open to visiting a big office once or twice a month; (2) not say anything now and wait to get an offer and ask for an exemption; or (3) something else?
