Gave interview in TCS, it went pretty well. At the end, the tech interviewer asked my expected ctc. After mentioning as 27lpa, he asked if can be negotiated, told yes.
After that didn't get any feedback, its been around 5days.
Is 27lpa too much fr tcs? 🤔

Please evaluate this initial offer for Apple ICT3. I think I was low balled, but I want to take more opinions. Currently Sr. MTS at VMware, received Apple ICT3. I was expecting to get to ICT4 but seems like team thinks upper end of ICT3 is more apt. Also, I think it is because I don’t have any counter offers yet.

The current climate is especially hard on new engineers, while companies decide (badly IMO, in many cases) what they need to be doing. It will improve, tech isn't going away.
Meanwhile, I suspect your best bet is to broaden your search as far as possible. I'm in the U.S., and landed a role back in the 90s (yes I'm old, lol) by scrounging Craigslist.com for small employers placing job-postings for free. Maybe there's something similar where you are? Also, be brave about jumping in as the only developer for a small business; and learn what you don't already know on-the-fly. Sell yourself as a self-teaching go-getter -- if they're not getting any other applicants, they just might go for it! Best of luck!
It is much better to make mistakes because you’re working outside your comfort zone, than to avoid them altogether. You will be forgiven for mistakes but be doubly rewarded for executing a risky effort successful, especially as an early career professional. If the opportunity is exciting but makes you nervous, go for it!
Not sure about Canada but there are lots in the US. IBM, Booz Allen, and Robert Half are some of the bigger name consulting companies in the US. There are also many smaller ones that operate on a more regional basis.

AI is changing the world and unfortunately, started with mass lay-offs from Tech jobs. I have been made redundant since July as a Publisher Success Analyst in the UK market and it's been pretty difficult getting back to IT Jobs that I have had to do odd jobs to survive but much more, I am upskilling and enhancing my skills in Data Engineering (Azure and AWS) and Prompt Engineering. You could also consider changing location--"Your Location Determines Your Allocation". wishing you success!
Go through a Head Hunter. SI Systems, TEK, Eagle, there are many to work with. Work with a few, as they usually cover different market segments.
I'll share a few things I learned about, from both the sides of looking for a job, and being a hiring manager. I am not
judging, criticising, or even suggesting that anyone agrees with me.
- As silly as this sounds, your resume will likely be passed over if it's more than one page long.
- Apply for remote jobs. They are very hot with companies who have graduated from stone tablets and skull beating clubs
to modern high tech remote work tools. I've worked from home since 2007. IMO, management teams who are against having
remote employees is a big red flag for me. That almost always means that the management team are tech world dinosours,
and/or simply want to micro manage you. It also smacks of complete distrust for your own employees.
- See if you can associate and take credit for work you did on a project or two and just a one liner about how it
positively impacted that part of the company. If you put too much programming technical detail into your resume, that
can again get it skipped over. But when you as an engineer can show that you also are knowledgable on how to help the
company beyond just cranking out code, I see that as a huge advantage.
- So again, I would recommend a one page resume with buzz words meant to tease the potential employer into contacting
you for further discussion.
- Ditch any and all cookie cutter cliche lines you might have in your resume. Like:
-- "Dedicated, team player who always has their eye on the ball..." Pfffft whatever. Those comments are assumed by any
sane hiring manager, so why take up resume space with it.
- Create a pet project that really excites you and then show it off. For example, get yourself established in the GIT
community. Some employers actually require that you have at least one public GIT project for them to even consider you.
- NEVER EVER accept taking a "required" coding test. If they ask you this question, they are effectively saying that
they don't really care about you as a person, and simply want a really fast typing code monkey.
- The MOST important thing to take away from all of this is that you are not a failure. I know very well how aggravating
and insulting this can feel. Don't beat yourself up about this, it really is not your fault. But sticking with this
profession is pretty close to done for me. I'd rather live a few extra years in happiness.

Well, I was in the same situation before. It's hard to get a job after dismissal. What I did is it to do a good project on your own, understand all its spec and push it to Heroku or AWS for people to view. The problem is that the market is saturated and there are mass layoffs among the big giants. Push hard in AI with a good project and you will land a job right soon.
This is the first time i ever left a comment on this website/or any such website:). I thought the job market is tough only in China, looks like it's global. The dilemma we are facing here is that if you are fresh graduates then you'll probablely be rejected for not having experience, but if you are over 30, then you are just too old for most of the jobs,Like you said, there is a pool of talent in the market, it is very common for hundreds of candidates competing for 1 job opening, so the HR probably won't take 1 minute to read your resume. The thing i disliked the most about the hiring process is that some of the HRs never respond to your message or inquiries afterwards if you didn't pass the interview so you have no idea why you are not chosen for the position, and this is also something i thought would only happen in China untill i had an online interview with a HR loacted in UK. The job requirements alighed with my skills/experience perfectly, and she was giving positive feedback to every question i had answered, but i never heard back from her even after sending 2 follow-up emails...I'm not sure where i am going with this, hahah, maybe you'll feel better to know that you are not alone:) And I hope we can both find our dream job.
Share your resume. You will get much better advice from people when they understand what you're capable of.
E.g. consulting & contracting is bad advice for some one at the entry level. That being said, when times are tough, take what you can get.
In the meantime, it's also a good opportunity to build your own product (while expecting it to fail).
I've changed my resume three times and changed it according to the job posting, but I've still not gotten anywhere.
