I’m applying to roles at my level but job descriptions now list far more expectations than when I last searched. Architecture, mentoring, system design, sometimes management. I can do parts but not all. How are people deciding which senior roles they’re truly competitive for?

It's always good to remember that a lot of job postings are essentially wish lists and may list qualifications that may not be vitally important. I've heard a recruiter say that if someone is in the ballpark when it comes to qualifications they should go ahead and apply. There may be cases where lack of some qualification could be a deal breaker, but the only way to find out is to apply.

Hello Fishes,

Any idea when we get relieving letter/service certificate from TCS?

My LWD was 16th September and I received FNF 10 days before. Also got initial release letter on my LWD.

I see so many issues in this organisation.
When I joined TCS after 5 days of joining they used to mail me every week for 5 continuous weeks and asked me every time for previous organisation relieving letter.
But they themselves don’t share it and delay a lot.


Anyone please advise.

CFP study programs:

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
