Hello fishes,

I gave interview in Cognizant today. HR have not share JD. After joining interview I got to know about Job profile it was for DevOps Engineer and I was not aware of it. The interviewer asked me questions related to Py, Django, svn, git. (Questions were project centric like how u have developed tool -logic). And finally said I should start preparing for basic DevOps concept. (mentioned 2 times)
What should I expect as result?

Hi fishes.

I have an offer from Oracle. The designation mentioned in offer letter is "Member Technical Staff." In the email it was also mentioned as "Senior Software Developer". But I interviewed for Senior Automation QA. Does my job role match my designation?

I asked the recruiter and he said Senior Automation QA and Senior Software Developer are given the same designation. I'm worried if my work will be different from what I am experienced in due to the designation. Can anyone clarify?

Any suggestions on how to get an adjunct teaching role at a university. Don't need money or prestige. I enjoy teaching and gives me something to do when I retire in ~10 yrs. Many colleagues who do this are big alumni donors. My Alma mater is too far away to be practical option. I'm an expert in a very in demand field - get quoted in articles all the time but have not been able to connect with anyone in academia.
