So I applied to a role but have realised there’s a better role in another department. The hiring manager called me and said I’ll hear back soon if an interview will happen with the role I applied to. Shall I let her know that I’m interested in the other role instead?

Take the interview, learn all you can about the role and the company. Then pursue the other opportunity as well. Just because you interview doesn't mean you need to take it.

Now you know someone in the Co who can refer at the approp time

Understood, but I also want to progress with the other role which is in a whole different department.

I joined IBM around year ago.
i have 9 YOE and i was given band 7A saying its lead role.
However in project i was treated as team member l. Initially i was okay as i thought i will be familiar with environment and later will take more responsibility.
But then they gave me release after few months.
No hike also this year.
Future also seems unclear as i feel low self-esteem seeing collegues my experience earning well and having better roles.
I really think joining IBM was wrong decision.

Actually, I gave Interview for BackEnd Developer @ Itilite. I was selected in the interview process (2 Tech DSA Based + HR) and got a mail stating that our interview panel is really impressed with your domain related expertise in order to proceed with offer negotiation please submit your documents. Now after 2-3 days of document submission, they came up by saying they cant move forward with my candidature.

I am still amazed how can they do this after asking my documents.
