Hi Fishes
I would like to know about the client interviews (especially in data science or machine learning roles).
Are these interviews tough?
Are these interviews meant to assess technical knowledge? For example, what is binomial distribution, what are different data structures in python, ml algorithms etc.
I would request each of the nagarrians to share their thoughts irrespective of the technologies you are working.
I am thankful to you for taking time and helping me out.

AWS cloud application architect. Had an on-site interview with AWS a few days ago and just got an email saying they want to talk to me about next steps. The role is cloud application architect but I want to ask them about the senior cloud application architect role. I have all the relevant experience for that role and feel like I’d be a better fit for that senior role. How should I approach this conversation? Is this even possible? Amazon

Hmm, that's a tough spot you are in. I'm not sure if there is a 'right' or 'perfect' answer in situations like this. You can either stay and hope for the rasie you deserve. Or you take a risk and leave to find a better-paying job. Considering your husband's situation, I would probably wait if I was in that same spot.
You could look for a job, while working at your current one.
it is no harm to apply for a new job
If you like where you are (team, culture) but they don't appreciate you "financially" you can start passively looking for a job. If you get a good offer, you can bargain or leave if they don't appreciate what you do.
But remember to weight in team members and culture, in my case it is a big part of staying on a company
The job market is rough right now for software developers. Hundreds of applicants per position within hours of posting on LinkedIn. You do have lots of experience and knowledge to distinguish yourself (comparatively to me) but if you do decide to job hunt be safe about it and do it while you're at your current job.
Ditto. The market is absolutely brutal right now. It doesn’t hurt to look for work. If you are able to secure interviews, great. If not, continue to revise your marketing strategy.
Maybe have your husband keep a look out while he networks. Networking is of highest import now than ever.
Well, you dont have to leave your current job until you secured an offering at a new one. But i guess there is always the feeling of job security staying where you are.
Personally, i would go for it if the pay they can offer outweigh the security of staying.
I think what you can do is, continue at your current company and actively look for other opportunities, try to face interview, if you find a better opportunities and they confirm, then let your company know that, you are switching, until that continue on the current company.
You can wait around to EOFY, but think you find it's going to be poultry as they haven't thought about you for two years..
Otherwise start looking and apply, what's the worst that can happen you get offered a job?
If you wait around for a magical pay rise, you putting all your eggs in one basket.
Once you get a job offer, the ball is in your court:
A) take new job and hopefully better wage
B) stay and hopefully a counter offer
I would take option A, as soon as they know you could leave you become replaceable and ensure they get someone trained ASAP.
This. If you have an offer in hand, be prepared to take it.
If you're the person who strong-armed a raise they didn't want to give you, you're the first on the list of people when they downsize because you've shown you would be willing to walk already and because now they think you're "overpaid".
It's almost never the right choice to take a counter offer simply because of the target it puts on your back for the future.
If you have kids, downsize as much as you can to extend your time at the company and seek alternative income sources, if there's anything your husband can do to contribute, even a little helps. In any situation be always interviewing. Don't jump at the first job offer that looks attractive, take your time before you make a very well measured decision considering all of the variables, in this situation the more information you gather the better. You don't want to join another company that you totally hate and will want to leave in two months after joining.

In tech to get a REAL raise you go to another company. Been that way for 50 years. My cousin laid out chips for large companies. He never purchased a home because he had to move to get a real raise.
The only way to sneak in a raise is to suggest you are interested in an ESOP program.
If company is publicly listed on stock exchange move on. Apply for a position that is semi management or can lead you into a management position.
apply for the new job, once you got better opportunity then leave the current one. Until continue the same
Start applying and see what bites. If you find a solid opportunity or multiple and receive offers. Use offers as leverage to get an earlier raise, or just leave entirely.
