Think about the resumes that worked in 2016 vs now – reflect on how your definition of a strong candidate has evolved. What used to impress you then vs. now? I feel like things have changed SOOO much

I definitely think there has been a shift away from expecting people to stay at the same company for a long time or assuming negative things about them if they don't. Job hopping has become extremely normal and even expected.

Agreed! But I feel like showing growth at a good company still holds a lot of weight

In 2016 big data and data management was such a popular thing. Now it feels redundant

So true. Earlier it was mostly titles and years of experience, now it’s more about real impact, skills, and how someone adapts and learns fast.

Hi fishes,
I am planning a switch so was going through some salary data for a software engineer. My ex-senior manager recommended me a website:
Growceed.com which helped me a lot in getting clarification about a lot of things but I am in doubt whether the average salaries of software engineer mentioned on Growceed.com really that much in top MNC companies.
