Please tell me I didn’t do something stupid. I just had an interview last week and I’m really interested in this position. I also just had my best performance review in my career and so I shared the details of my feedback with the hiring manager who interviewed me last week. I was proud to share it and it was glowing feedback but have you ever done something like this before? In hindsight I wonder if this might not have been such a good idea after all. Idk just scared/nervous about it now.

Idt it was stupid at all. Was there a reaction by them that made you think it was? IMO it validates your cred, work ethic and abilities. Plus it’s not exactly terrible for them to hear you’re valued at current job and they may need BAFO to get you to jump ship.

I have herd that currently most of the companies are in hiring freeze. (Holiday season, recession or layoffs).

Hey fishes,

I have a question. Currently I'm working in Mindtree as a Infrastructure Engineer and basically there is nothing much technical in it.

I am very much interested in cloud and Devops and currently started learning about it as well.

I just wanted to know, how much tough it would be for me to switch from a support role to Devops role? (I am having 14 months of experience)
