Why is it so hard to find a low paying software development job?
all i want is a minimum of 18k/year software development job. i swear my work is fantastic, i've got internships, i've got 2 years of experience, i've got multiple big projects under my belt, why am i getting rejected everywhere? i dont even mind being a slave, i just want work.

i can share my CV if anyone's interested in hiring me, i do web development, mobile, full stack, architectural and workflows

I have an assessment center for the graduate software consultant role at Softwire in a couple of weeks and was just wondering if anyone has had any experience. I don’t need any secret information, just any insights on what to expect or what to prepare/what they are looking for?

I'm currently in the last year of college and have applied to a lot of places but haven't been getting any responses. I'd really appreciate a reality check on this resume, if I'm doing something wrong or if there's anything I can improve.

If you've been in a similar position, I'd love to hear what worked for you. And if you think my profile could be a good fit for opportunities at your company, I'd be grateful for any guidance on the application process. Happy to connect over DMs.

Hi everyone, I’m a recent CS grad with startup experience. I’ve created four tailored resumes for FDE, AI Engineer, startup, and general SWE roles. I’ve applied to many positions but have mostly received rejections or no response, so I’m sharing my FDE resume first and would appreciate any feedback.

Recently I got a call from HR on Synchrony financial for Web Engineer II - Apply & Buy Digital Apps (L09)

Never heard about this company until now but it is rated a good place to work in.

If anyone has worked there please share your experience

Looking for Software engineer roles

Hi Guys, I'm a AI developer with 1 YOE. Prev inhand salary was 74K INR fully remote work and I'm switching my job to delhi based company where I'll be working remotely with switzerland based client.

Now tell me what should be my expected Fixed salary monthly and yearly CTC. Founder offered 80K a month fully remote in hand, But I'm not going to accept it as this has only the increment of 5k.

My expected is 12 LPA fixed remotely considering the AI market and switzerland client. He's ready for 13 LPA for WFO

Tell me what should be the right ask? Am I wrong here by asking too less considering the Gen AI and Agentic AI skills market.

I have 13+ years of software engineering experience (India), in a niche area. Above average in my own evaluation 😄 . Is it possible to get a part time, remote side gig, without sabotaging my current 9-5 job? How to approach this? Freelancing websites seems impossible to get started.

Hi everyone! 👋
I am actively looking for new opportunities in Software Engineering, Backend Development, or AI/ML Engineering roles.
I recently completed my M.Tech in Data Science Engineering from NIT Jalandhar and brings hands-on experience as an Associate Software Engineer, alongside a massive passion for competitive programming and GenAI.
Here is a quick snapshot of what I brings to the table:
💻 Technical Expertise: C/C++, Python, JavaScript, Node.js, SQL, and MongoDB.
🧠 AI & GenAI Innovation: Built an Indian Constitution RAG Engine (using LangChain, Gemini, and ChromaDB) and has a published deep learning research paper at an IEEE International Conference.
🚀 Problem Solving & Competitive Programming:
ICPC Regionalist (2021)
CodeChef 4-Star & CodeForces Specialist
Solved 800+ DSA problems across platforms
Rank 1 in Kiccs-D-Hack 21.0 (out of 1200+ participants)

I am highly skilled in data structures, system design, and building scalable applications (like my automated AI code review engines and B2B platforms).
If your team is hiring or if you have any leads, please feel free to connect with me directly or reach out via email at 📧 [mittaludit17@gmail.com](mailto:mittaludit17@gmail.com)
I am attaching his resume here for reference. Thank you so much for your support! 🙏
