Is video mein main Jagdish Saini ki real journey leke aaya hoon—3.2 LPA se start, 100+ rejections face kiye, aur aaj Atlassian mein 70 LPA+ remote role tak. Jagdish Hindi-medium background se aaya, family financial pressure tha, first internship 6 months unpaid thi, phir Team Computers (Gurgaon) mein full-time start hua. Yahin se usne learning ko seriously liya—kabhi data science, kabhi full-stack—aur step-by-step switch strategy build ki. Humne detail mein baat ki: kab switch karna chahiye, work vs money ka trade-off, service-based companies ka “budget issue” aur last round mein salary bolke time waste karna, aur kaise opportunities khud create karni padti hain. Jagdish ne Excel sheet bana ke targeted companies + HR outreach (cold mail, LinkedIn, referrals) ka process follow kiya. Biggest takeaway: senior roles mein sirf React/CRUD se kaam nahi chalta—DSA first gate hai, but system design se aap truly judge hote ho. Aur rejections normal hain—1-2 rejection pe demotivate mat ho; process banao, prep banao, aur consistent raho.
