I am a dev with 4.5LPA and I got laid off from my company

I got laid off recently and my tech stack is dotnet and angular. But the weird part is they never let me work in dotnet aka backend coz of their lack of projects.

So they made me do AI integrations and tools research - I learnt about rag, MCP etc it was useful.

So I'm in the middle of nowhere

Not perfect in both.

I don't want to make the mistake of joining startups as it is crazy unstable and someone like me who doesn't have technical edge ( I mean I am not a genius) I cannot risk another layoff when times get rough.

I am targeting MNCs and Product based companies as I can perfect my DSA and fundamentals. And I hope it can atleast give me some security. Ik I'm crazy for asking security in tech. But understand my situation.

My YOE is 11 months.

Can I apply to MNCs GCCs or PBCs? ( Not faang level)

I need atleast 9+ LPA coz I think I deserve that much. While I'm not a genius I'm not dumb either.

Pls give me your insights, if some of you are HRs you can tell me if you will even select me

I was laid of under the premise of under-performance, but there was no PIP, no reviews, no feedback. It happened under 5 mins

My offer letter does not say a severence pay for termination. but they explicitly say:

>The Company reserves the right to terminate your employment summarily without any notice period or termination payment, if it has reasonable ground to believe you are guilty of misconduct or negligence, or have committed any fundamental breach of contract or caused any loss to the Company. On the termination of your employment for whatever reason, you will return to the Company all property; documents and paper, both original and copies thereof, including any samples, literature, contracts, records, lists, drawings, blueprints, letters, notes, data and the like; and confidential information, in your possession or under your control relating to your employment or to clients' business affairs.

But they made me forcefully resign as it would be good for me as I am just starting out.
I havent even completed 1 year.
I know I did not under-perform.
I need to know if I can do anything about this, but I already gave resignation which I feel bad about.
But in my defence, they literally did not give me time to think.

My state is tamil nadu

I need real viewer directed advice on what my sm niche should be?

I **need** your advice on figuring out my niche for my sm account. ( Social media )

I am an early 20s F, working in tech, avg all my life, trying to be better and get rich.

I am trying to create content on the side. I have always wanted to do this.

But coming to my brand, I don't know what to fixate on.

I don't want to limit myself to fashion and makeup as it is extremely oversaturated and there are millions of other pretty girls who do this full-time. I can't possibly compete with their quality. As I'm mainly doing this on my side.

Since I'm also working in tech and I am actually actively doing DSA and job switching, I wanted to document that as well.

But I always loved dressing up and lifestyle content too. So I don't wanna limit myself to pure tech/self improvement related content as well.

I got this idea like, what if I document both, like an average 20 something girl trying to build my dream life : one step at a time

So I

\-show them what I do, my vlogs, my fits

\- I document my DSA and switching process

\- be real and raw

Will this be something people would watch or would these 2 worlds not mix?

Please give your honest feedback. I would love to get insights from people in my age group, hence posted here.

said tech stack :
FE: Angular

BE: Dotnet, FastApi

Db: Postgress

Cloud/deployment: Azure
This is what our project uses, even though I am "full-stack", I'm majorly sidelined to Angular. Due to this, I have started to forget my "backend" skills coz no practice.

When I volunteered and assigned myself a simple backend task, I struggled.

That's when it hit me, I don't know the shit I'm doing, then how the hell am I even supposed to get better paying jobs in this f-d up market? then it further got me thinking, is my tech-stack even relevant?
People are talking about llm integrations, rag pipelines, fine-tuning and what not? but here I am, struggling with simple dotnet/python tasks. It scares me honestly.

But our project uses some sort of llm integration, I am not super sure on the details of it though coz they don't give that task to us, and it is done by someone senior from another branch. so no contact. Although I have decided I will get to know more about it.

Anyway, my point is, when I have to switch jobs will this stack get me calls? coz i'm not so sure guys. what do i do? how do I get myself out-there and make my resume worthy of better oppurtunities?

PS: 6 month exp, 4.5LPA
