Hi everyone , I am currently getting 3.35 LPA + allowances in my current role. I am a technologist and did my B.Tech and diploma in mechanical, respectively, and 2 years and 6 months of experience.
I am willing to progress in this though competition, but at the age of 28 years, I am feeling like I am very much far behind on the race.
I like to explore ways to boost up my career. Can you all give me some advice?

Interview Preparation Tips
Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Only join Synechron when you don't have any other offer in hand. Or keep last option in your list. Because here, employees are treated as cattle who can earn for the company. There is absolutely no ownership of there employees. If your client will offboard you, it means you are directly on the streets for job searching. No policy of employee retaining, they hire for same role when they already have many people on bench with same role and better experience just because hiring team is getting a handsome incentive to hire new employees. And finally layoffs happened with those who are on bench. Offcourse they offer you very attractive package, sadly its nothing but a trap.
