Hi! Newbie here! When you’re actively looking for J2, do you put your current company’s name on your resume? If so, are you not worried that both companies finding out about OE during employment verification? I’ve had a close call when J2 offered me a job and HR seemed unprofessional. Asked if they were to call J1 after I started and ask about me, what they would say about my employment status, even when I did not list them as my references. I had to decline offer because I chickened out.

Never put your current company on your resume if you are looking for J2

That’s why it’s impossible.. it has to be at most 2 years

Simple: Don’t go for the job if they ask your current company’s officials as reference.
Feel free to add current company in your resume.
Don’t worry to much.
Deactivate your LinkedIn after you get J2 🙂

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

Hi fishes,

Service bAsed companies are not releasing offers nowadays. I have left looking for offers from any of service based companies. Except TCS, All are frauds and TCS won’t pay much anyway so done. They will lure you to give interviews and later when all rounds are done and docs are submitted, they will come and say we can’t pay you. I have faced the same with capegemini, tech Mahindra, infosys, cognizant. Is this the case with anyone ? Or am I the only one with bad luck
