For over three years, I have been following you and watching every single video related to .NET and SQL interview questions. Believe me, you have been the greatest teacher in my life. I have learned so much from you and continue to learn every day. The vibe and knowledge you bring to your videos make it feel like a personal, in-person session, rather than an online platform. Your teachings are so clear and comprehensive that I grasp every bit of the knowledge you share. Thank you for all your teachings and for making us better. Once again, as your brand name 'Questpond' suggests, it truly is a quest pond for us. 😊🙇‍♂

Sir, I was laid off by the company in April. I had been working there for five years as a senior .NET developer and was the only one working with this technology, while my colleagues were working with PHP. I worked like crazy on 4-5 big projects all by myself. After five years, the company let me go, saying they no longer needed .NET. Currently, I am very frustrated and jobless. I am thinking of starting a business.😢

[@AbhishekKumar-ml7xl]

Bro why u not trying for another opportunity?? U can apply through Naukri right?

[@Santoshnsk]

[@VisionVibesNew]

@@AbhishekKumar-ml7xl Yes, I can, but right now I don't want to depend on companies. They hire us and then let us go when their needs change. I'm planning to start my own business, automate it with technology, and then consider joining a job again. This way, I won't be reliant on these fickle companies.

I know of two other trends: 1) They tell the position/designation is now scrapped. Hence, naturally there is no need for the resource 2) They promote your junior to higher designation who has much lesser experience and even considerable amount of service gaps, to hurt your sentiment. So that eventually you leave. Your junior off course draws less salary then you, so its helpful in cost cutting.

My experience: I was not invited to many of the meetings, given less priority tasks. I was given manual testing tasks when I was a developer. I was asked to train an automation tester on development aspects. All this happened because my manager had to bring in his GF on the team. It was a planned roll off. I got the hint and had 2 offers in hand. I did not resign rather chose to be terminated with a severance package. I joined my new job the very next day.

No offence I have rocked all 4 layers apart from machine learning during actual hiring was happening but now we don't have any calls irrespective of those skills. Developer role now a days is upto 6 years only beyond that companies are not preferring and ageism also exist for developers. No one is hiring above 35 years, some small medium companies call but they take our knowledge and dont come back. Keep an eye on section 174 in USA which reduced R&D, no one talks about that. Its under US congress approval for revoking that section, if they don't no dev jobs. Focus of support or any tooling support jobs or manager jobs

Dear Shiv SirI like your .Net Videos helping me lots of understanding Lots of love Keep Guiding ❤

[@rajesh-devops]

Sir, i appreciate your thought process and knowledge which you have shared , what i believe is that Practical should be more emphasized because when we do practical's we turn up with a lot of issues , errors , things will not work out , that's how i will go ahead with fixing the issue , during that process i learn a lot , so when we go for interview, the intermediate question or scenario based question can be well answered if you have did complete practical's. I do understand you mentioned the 20%, 80% formula when there is time constraint , but still i think we need to do enough practical's so that we can confidently attend the interview process. Coming to the videos, yes we have to watch the recorded videos for understanding the concepts very well , but we need to repeat watching it again and again, make our own notes and do strong practical's in that way we are going to remember that concept for longer time which is required when we are giving interviews. At the end what you mentioned is right, we should keep watching the interview question & answer videos ,learn to give crisp and clear cut answers, that's what the interviewer will expect from us . Once again thank you sharing such nice information, Much Appreciated

[@questpondvideos]

The right way is practical videos. But when some one jobless his mindset is different and under pressure. So said 20 / 80. yes in long run hands works.

I am not from IT. I left it 22 years ago. But when I keep track of financial markets (India, US and EU). The news is not very positive on job front for anybody including non-IT. Since there are more people working in IT sector we just happen to see more impact there but that does not mean there is no impact elsewhere. While I do not wish this on anyone including myself, the writing on the wall is clear. More financial problems are anticipated, more job loss are expected across the globe and across the sector. Since tech and IT involves more people it will appear as if that is the only sector that is impacted while the reality is that the more impact is seen there but the impact is everywhere.
