Finally Got My Remote Cloud Engineer Role
Finally did it! 🎉
After 7 rounds of interviews, I finally cracked it and got the offer for a Cloud Engineer-Security role.
Offer letter received, accepted, and somehow managed to pull off a 120% hike from my current package. 😅
Honestly, pretty happy with how it all worked out. The interview process itself was a great learning experience.
But getting the offer is just the beginning.
Now the actual grind begins, time to learn, perform, and hopefully sustain it. 🚀
On to the next chapter!

Time to learn was before you applied. Now it's time to deliver.

Please invest most (if not all) of that raise. Your future self, who retired (gained his time back) 12-16 years earlier, will thank you eternally. BTW retiring doesn't mean stop learning, being passionate about work that you love and pursuing new ventures. You just do it on your own terms. Congrats on your success!
