Cogno AI Hey fishes, One of my friends, got offer in cognizant. She have an epfo account with inactive UAN and she changed her name in aadhar recently and this epfo account has the past name. So she raised request for name change 2 months ago and still it's processing. And now cognizant asking the acknowledgement of changed name which the previous company cannot provide for obvious reasons. Will it affect the doj? Or anyone had this kind of problem before?

Yes and I’ve been unemployed a lot longer and I’m exhausted and broken. I barely move past the recruiter stage and never get feedback. I got two rejections today, one from a company that has reposted the job several times since February. And in the past industry experience wasn’t required, now it is.
The way the hiring process is currently is that hiring managers are trying to find one reason not to hire you rather than the myriad of reasons to hire you. The concept of potential and learning on the job no longer applies.
It’s demoralizing seeing jobs reposted. I’ve tried to look up who got the job for the companies I’ve interviewed with and 9 times out of 10 it doesn’t seem they actually hired someone.
Honestly I think some of them are fake roles. I won’t do assignments anymore because I think it’s a scam for free work. I’ve looked back on the companies LI pages to find out who got the job after I was rejected (after doing an assignment) and most of the time the role was never hired for.
I have seen friends take 6+ months to find a new job lately. It’s a tough market right now for certain roles. I would focus on networking and making connections at target companies.
Also have a look at the Holding Companies career pages. From memory WPP and Publicis Groupe + Publicis Groupe Media had quite a few planning/strategy roles.
Its the market, its tough out there.

Keep at it my friend! Took me months during a sabbatical to find my next gig. When I was looking last year it helped me to treat it as my day job vs around the clock.
Might be a few things here worth trying:
