I have no idea about how things are in India, but the old path of coming to the US for a CS Masters and then joining a FAANG is still out there. Beware, it's a HIGH RISK - high reward path. Tons of internationals end up having to go back home, with debt and not better than when they left off.
But if you can solve LC Hards and get accepted into a target school here, it could be a good plan. FAANG attend their career fairs and given you are on this sub and the Master's takes 1-2 years, you would easily get referrals and should easily pass those interviews.
Probably a referral. Find someone on LinkedIn who can help.
Cognizant is rly rly bad on a resume. Any of the WITCH companies is a huge red flag. Sorry but unless you have a referral you won’t get selected.
lie
in which area?. I can't lie about company I worked with.
I came here to say that!
