Hi, I’m looking to move from Toronto to NYC for more career advancement and closer to family. With 15+ YOE in finance (decision support, corp fin, Fp&A and transaction adv) getting no luck with job search. Could be 1) my revamped resume not working 2) different industry experience from target and 3) applying for VP roles while being SD (even though YOE are a match). Can anyone help me with how to go about it?

Should I keep waiting or try calling again or send an email? Don’t want to be too aggressive but also want to hear their update & hopefully schedule next round interview

Hi fishes! Nagarro declined the counter offer letter ₹33,00,000 + shares worth 4.5LPA

I've 6+ yrs experience (mobile dev.)

Nagarro offered 18LPA. Initially I told HR for 22 but he mentioned 18 into their internal portal to their senior so after clearing all interview rounds I got 18.

When I asked the HR, he told me to accept it for now and bring the counter offer letter so they can revise offer letter.

But now they declined. Weird.

I got a call for a Java position. I told them I do not develop in Java. I do JavaScript with React. He says “oh yes, that is what the client wants”. So I sent my resume. When he sent the confirmation email it stated Angular/Java. I told him that I don’t have much Java skills. He then sent this (pic) as a response. 🤔🤔🤔
When I spoke to the client she had no idea why the recruiter added angular react as it was just a Java developer position, Completely wasted so much time
