29 yrs old now sold my own cars since 17. So I technically have 12 years of work experience but 7 in a professional environment.

I know I didn’t mention a role cause I’m not sure what role they’d be willing to take a shot at with me without too much tech experience. I would like to go into the cyber security realm, but no degree yet.

I was also recommend to look into presales/account executive/SDR/ Solution architect roles.

TC: 62k
YOE: 12

It's worth a shot but a slight disadvantage...

Any other certs?

No certs yet working on Sec+

It's a bit tough but there's nothing impossible in this market nowadays

Hello Fishs,

I have given 3 rounds of interview for the position of SE- B8 , i.e. Lead SE. Now in salary discussion round i asked HR for a CTC between a range of 31-34L. But they told me max they can give is 29.5L. I still did not accepted the initial offer from HR, it is going again one more round for salary negotiation after HR confirms the bracket from Business. I know Natwest dont negotiate once you accepted the offer. What CTC can i expect from Natwest for Lead SE.

How is AWS as a company to work for? Is it really worth the time to spend on prep for the interview?

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

Clerks, at what point in your clerkship did you start applying for jobs? I’m about halfway through a two year clerkship in my intended market and I am trying to figure out when I need to seriously start applying.
