I’ve done this I am currently a Senior Associate up for a manager promotion. I applied directly to Google (no referral) to a TPM position in their compliance engineering group. I have 4 YOE and I’m coming in as an L4. Not sure if that helps with the “how” but if your experience is impressive and well articulated in a resume give it a go...

Also I have high level coding experience from college but I do not code whatsoever and there were no coding questions in my interviews.

My thought is that from strategy it is going to be tough unless you can also demonstrate technical capabilities. Can you code? Do you have any particular specialties like payments platforms (e.g. PCI DSS)?

Hi Sharks, I had an interview with Tata Consultancy today and cleared the TAG round by answering all their questions. So here my query is, based on my performance will they offer me a hike of 100% or more from my CCTC, because this role is too relevant to my domain and technical knowledge so that I don't wanna miss out on this.

CCTC - 6LPA
YOE - 5
