Hi Manan,

I would suggest to get your resume and linkedIn reviewed by me using free trial session. I will be more than happy to help you.

Also follow below suggestions which you can implement today itself:

1. Laser-Focus Your Resume for Each Role (No Generic Resumes)

Impact: 3–5x higher callback rate

How:

• Tailor your resume for every job using keywords from the job description.
• Use tools like Jobscan or Resume Worded to match your resume to the role.
• Highlight measurable outcomes (e.g., “Improved load time by 45%”, “Led a team of 6 to deliver project 2 months early”).

Immediate action:

Pick 5 target roles and optimize your resume individually for each.

2. Use Referrals Aggressively

Impact: Referrals boost your chances by 4x compared to cold applications

How:

• Search for 2nd-degree connections on LinkedIn who work at companies you're applying to.
• Send personalized messages asking for a quick chat or referral.
• If no connections, reach out politely to employees in similar roles (1–2 messages max).

Immediate action:

Set a daily target to message 5–10 people for referrals.

3. Improve Your LinkedIn Profile Visibility

Impact: Increases chances of being contacted by recruiters

How:

• Use a strong headline (e.g., “Engineering Manager | Scaled B2C platforms to 10M+ users | Ex-Slice”)
• Add key skills relevant to your target roles (LinkedIn lets you pin 3).
• Enable “Open to Work” and make it visible to recruiters.
• Post value-added content or project summaries 1–2 times a week to improve visibility.

Immediate action:

Update your headline, About section, and pin relevant achievements.

Hello Manan sir,

Here are 2–3 high-impact habits you can follow right away:

▪️ Tailor Your Resume for Every Job:

Don’t use the same resume everywhere.

Before applying to any job, read the job description carefully and update your resume to include the skills and keywords they are looking for.

▪️ Use a strong headline like “Python Developer | Cybersecurity Enthusiast”

▪️ Highlight your projects, certifications, or internships related to that role

▪️ Use simple bullet points showing impact (e.g., “Built a secure login system using Flask and JWT”)

2. Optimize Your LinkedIn Profile & Be Active

Recruiters often find candidates through LinkedIn.

▪️ Update your profile headline and “About” section with your target role

▪️ Add your projects, certifications, and achievements

▪️ Start posting 1–2 times a week – share your learning, small wins, or any projects

▪️ Connect with 5–10 professionals in your field daily (add a short intro message)

3. Apply Smartly – Quality Over Quantity

Don’t just apply randomly to hundreds of jobs.

▪️ Pick 2–3 job boards/platforms (LinkedIn, Internshala, Naukri, etc.)

▪️ Set daily goals (like applying to 5–10 relevant jobs per day)

▪️ Write a short custom c

over note for each application

1️⃣ Customize your resume for every application

Don’t send the same resume everywhere. Tailor your resume headline, skills, and keywords to each JD — match the role’s must-haves. ATS loves this. Just 10–15 mins per application makes a big difference.

2️⃣ Actively reach out — don’t just apply

Instead of only hitting Easy Apply, message recruiters or employees directly on LinkedIn:

• Short intro + relevant experience + 1 line on why you’re a fit.
• Ask if they’re open to referring or sharing insights.
• This easily doubles callbacks.

3️⃣ Make your LinkedIn “searchable & active”

• Update your headline with clear role + key skill keywords.
• Add a clear About section with your value & impact.
• Engage: comment on posts, share thoughts — recruiters notice active profiles first.

Bonus: Apply daily — 3–5 tailored quality applications beat 50 random ones.

Don't apply for a specific job or prepare for a specific role. Apply for a software engineer. Big companies want good problem solver not programmer. Now programming can be done using AI and for that you have to DSA + Projects + Resume + Core Subjects + System Design(If want to switch for sde 2) only.
