Hey @X algorithm 👋
I’m looking to #connect with people interested in:
• Full-stack
• DevOps
• App Development
• SaaS
• AI / ML / DL / RL
• Data Science
• Freelancing
• Startups
• Building in public
If that’s you, let’s connect and grow together 😁
@TheVixhal New pitch : I resigned XYZ to build a billion dollar ABC startup.
However are ai startups really printing cash or burning them to prove themselves 🧐
Tier 1 city airports and flights are the best place to network and have meaningul conversations.
Met a guy today , who was suppose to miss his flight , due to late flight arrival from Zurich. Glad he didn't.
During our conversation he shared , he is senior head detection enginner at sentiel one and take interviews. I got curious.
We had a lot of convo , but here are main pointers ( in no particular order)
> Never say that it's company internals , can't share , it reduces the confidence of the recruiter in you.
> Share what you have worked on within organisation. In case you haven't worked on a tool , never say no , honestly mention what you know about that tool. Raises credibility .
> Never keep on applying like blindly. , if you are getting 5-10 rejections ,it's time to think, optimise the skills and then reapply.
> Rejections are real , embrace it , learn from failure and improve upon it , don't take it as setback.
> LinkedIn very good place for cold dms , reddit and X for marketing . Utilise it.
> Sales people have a lot of penetration in the organisation, they know details of internal meeting (who will be kept and removed). Connect with them (much better chance then blindly shooting resumes)
> If you are in 1/2nd year explore as much as you can , and find you passion and get drowned in it.
> Focus on fundamentals: ai can do things , but you need to know fundamentals to debug.
> Juniors goals going to disappear, it's inevitable. High agency folks stays.
> Focus on domains like cybersecurity , data scientist , hardware , low level programing (kernel, drivers, sockets, db, etc) , quantum computing and biotechnology.
> Always keep the raise rate as per market standards, builds credibility (hr will try to keep that low , don't accept)
> We also taked about stocks , esops , and how to use them beneficially to build an forturne.
> And finally how he is building a product and can use some helping hand ( yup may be my next potential client 😁)
Most of you might already know these, but wanted to share my experience with X's amazing community.
For a fun fact : the guy is not available on any of the social media , he says it creates work distraction.
Peace ✌️
