Stuck in a toxic job for months, no interviews. Need genuine advice.

Hi everyone,

I am from Jaipur, working as an Android Developer at a small company.

I joined as an intern in Dec 2025 at ₹5,000/month and got converted to full-time in April 2026 — but salary is now ₹12,000.

Since April, my company has given me only 1 Android project. I've been sitting idle for 2 months.

So I started learning Python + GenAI on my own and built 3-4 projects using:

- Python, FastAPI, LangChain, LangGraph

- PostgreSQL, NumPy, Pandas

- RAG applications

- Multi-agent systems using LangGraph (I can build autonomous agents now)

**I have decided — I DO NOT want to continue with Android.**

I want to fully switch to Python Backend / GenAI / Agentic AI roles.

**The problem:**

- I am applying on LinkedIn, Naukri, Indeed — no calls

- Gave 2-3 interviews, cleared HR rounds, but no update after that

- No rejection mail, no feedback, nothing

**My total experience:**

- 4 months internship + 3 months full-time (total ~7 months)

**Company tech stack:**

- Kotlin, Jetpack Compose (but no projects for 2 months now)

**Here is my GitHub: https://github.com/codewbat**

**My questions:**

  1. Since I don't want Android, should I even mention it on my resume? Or hide it?
  2. My current salary is ₹12,000 — should I mention this to recruiters? Will they lowball me?
  3. Should I resign without an offer and prepare full-time? Current company has no work anyway.
  4. What am I doing wrong in applications? Why am I not getting calls despite having projects and multi-agent skills?
  5. Should I apply for Python Backend roles or GenAI specific roles? Which has more scope for me?

Please give me a clear roadmap. I am ready to work hard.
