Indian Tech Professionals Share Varied Job Market Experiences Amid Industry Changes
Two Indian tech professionals shared their challenges in the current job market on Reddit. One with two years of experience reported sending 500-600 applications with little response, contrasting others who secured multiple Big Tech offers quickly. Another, with over three years of experience, was laid off as his company adopted AI coding tools and is now seeking frontend, backend, or full-stack roles, requesting referrals. Both posts highlight varied experiences amid a competitive tech employment landscape influenced by automation and shifting demands.
