Some of you may have noticed that I haven't sent out any new issues for a while. That's because there have been some changes.
For the past 12 months, I've been sharing career opportunities weekly. During this time, I've observed something important.
Job seekers, from recent graduates to experienced professionals, have been actively hunting for jobs. Many have also been sharing job links and opportunities on social media. While the intention was to help others during the tough tech layoffs over the past year, this widespread sharing sometimes flooded certain job postings with too many applications. This isn't fair to deserving candidates or recruiters.
I've decided to pause and rethink instead of continuing with something that wasn’t truly beneficial. If you want a job, you need to learn to find opportunities through the right methods, rather than submitting applications without reading the job descriptions (especially freshers)
Sending Something Helpful
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I’m passionate about technical writing and creating content related to software development. I also have a background in computer science.
I constantly surf the internet to find, read, and learn about the latest happenings in tech.
As an introvert, I prefer finding answers to my questions online (using Google + AI) rather than reaching out to individuals and waiting for replies. I follow inspiring tech professionals by tracking their online presence through their videos, content, tips, and social media. This saves me the time of waiting for an answer and allows me to get more information on a particular topic while being online.
I believe in being smart enough to learn from others' mistakes rather than only learning from your own. Though I won’t particularly suggest you do the same, haha.
This is why I decided to change this newsletter by sharing my knowledge and the insights I regularly encounter.
Why You Should Read?
In each new issue, you’ll find something new, interesting, or the latest happenings in the tech world—totally random.
I’ll be sharing a mix of insights about writing, content creation, software development, AI, and perhaps even Astronomy, Physics, or Deep Space (everything tech-related).
My goal is to deliver, teach, and share interesting and great stuff beyond what you encounter daily in your tech job.
No promises! New issues will be published on random days, at random weeks each month!
Sukriya🙏🏼 See You Again in Fresh Issue!
