1. Learning and key skillset is important especially when you climb on the leadership ladder (15+ exp) in any org.
2. Meaningful Contacts (LinkedIn, Social Community) will help you with good opportunities.
3. Well articulated resume with good content and context (ATS ready) is the key to open an opportunity.
4. Above all Referrals matters a lot for 15+ yrs of exp.
5. I have 15+ yrs of exp and switched last year to Cognizant. Due to WLB and extended working hours (including weekends) am looking for a switch now but opportunities are less compared to last year due to micro economical factors. So waiting for Q1/Q2 of 2023 where most of the opportunities open up. Until then keep learning, keep grooming your resume, Go through YouTube videos on cracking interviews and if possible learn a new skill which is niche in your tech stack. The time until Q2 of next year is your key investment period. All the best
