@Sidd190b true, honestly lots of maintainers don't give a shit about contributors anymore

What even is one supposed to do man, it's crazy how excluded contributors feel being part of the community here. I am part of some others and the amount of weightage they give to the involvement of contributors and hence making their time worth is just a world of difference

Bro, what even is open source about now. Whole organisation got deleted from github. Maintainer tried to restore it for a week. No replies, bro casually said I have moved on. All the PRs from contributors gone. I had 40+ PRs, gone now, no Proof of work or anything left

@soham_nayak04 hey man, I read some of your posts. Since you are from IIT B, just reach out to your alumni man, you will definitely land something Rn most companies are hiring via friends and families Good Luck!

Anyone’s hiring?
Soham@soham_nayak04

Last week, I got a call from the CEO of the startup I joined 6 months ago. Everything was good. I had shipped 25+ PRs, built 40+ reusable components from scratch, and fixed end-user bugs within a day. I loved the team. I loved the product. It was finally the kind of place I had been chasing since my first year at IIT Bombay. Then he told me the funding round didn't come through. No runway left. So no job either. I'm not going to pretend I took it well. I sat with it for a few days. It's a strange kind of grief; nothing went wrong, the work was good, the people were good, the product was good. The bank account just didn't grow fast enough. I'm 22. Just graduated from IIT Bombay this year. No savings to coast on. I need to figure out what's next in the next few weeks, not the next few months. So I'm doing the thing I've been avoiding. Asking for help in public. What I bring: → Frontend engineer, ~1 year shipping production code → React, TypeScript, Next.js, Node, Python, Postgres → Built and launched my own SaaS products end to end → Comfortable being the first or second engineer at an early-stage startup → Move fast, don't need hand-holding What I'm looking for: → Founding / early engineer role at a startup, actually building something real → Remote or relocating, both fine → Can hop on a call this week If you're hiring, or you know someone who is, please reply or DM. Even a repost would mean more than you know right now.

Guys, there are multiple companies with careers pages on their websites, but most of the time they aren't even hiring for those roles, the postings are there just for the sake of it.

Akash Singh | Hiring top tier SDEs
Never wanted to generalize candidates based on where they work but there is one Big Tech company I’m increasingly tempted to avoid altogether. I’ve been interacting with candidates from there for almost 5+ years now and the patterns seem remarkably consistent: a sense of entitlement, little effort toward interview preparation, frequent screening and interview no-shows without prior notice and candidates pushing for inflated levels that they often struggle to justify during interviews. Many end up getting rejected because the expected depth in software engineering, ownership, scope and impact simply isn’t there for the level they’re targeting. At some point, you start understanding why some hiring managers already approach those profiles with skepticism. Could be a coincidence. Could be selection bias. But the pattern has been hard to ignore.

@yctheman @getsaral @yctheman I will still apply. The only issue is I don't have 2 years of professional xp, other than that I have done open source contribution and have interned at a UK based startup where I owned system design and bla bla.. Question is can you consider a Jr. BE dev or an intern?
