How long have you been looking?

Congrats!

Same here. Been on the search as well. Seems like shops have only been focused on individuals with at least 3-4 FDD YOE so it’s been tough to land a spot.

Well, hope things turn around for you! It’s difficult when there are so many qualified people looking.

Hey guys ,
I was a fresher when i joined wipro
My manager has given me rating 1 in confirmatory appraisal on may 18 may which happened after completion of 1 year at wipro.
I raised the issue of rating with my manager immediately , he convinced me not to worry , ratings are already submitted , I asked him to resubmit cause i don't deserve rating 1
So he said he will look if that is possible but didn't changed .Now after 3 months they are pressurizing me to put a resignation,what should i do?
