r/QualityAssurance

I have 14 years of experience in USA and got laid off last week. It's not the 1st time. I got laid off twice during COVID but was able to find a new job less than a month.

Last time I was in market 7 years ago and since then so many things changed. Resume format changed, way of interview changed and all that.

I understand if I can't Crack an interview that's totally my fault. But I am competing with BOTs to apply for a job. Within 1 hours of job posting, there are hundreds and thousands of applications, how the hell my resume will reach out to recruiters!!

Just venting and yeah I typed each and every words by myself and did use the fucking AI to express myself

I recently got into a company for a QA automation role and had an upcoming opportunity to work on an AI project. I’ve been creating a Claude skill for UI automation because they essentially have no automation yet.

My manager told me that his roadmap for me now is to finish up documenting the use of the Claude skill, onboard another person who only knows how to vibe code and has never actually coded, and move me to manual testing projects that are coming out so fast, that there won’t be proper sprints for them.

The AI project is on hold because the higher ups don’t know if testing AI products is essential, if the AI team can do it themselves, and how the QA team should even test AI products.

I already struggled for a bit to get a new job after 60% of the QA department got let go at my previous company half a year ago, I’m scared that I’m building up skills outside of test automation and software development (which is what I’ve always wanted to do and studied for).

Am I getting too nervous about my current company and thinking of moving companies too fast?

Hi everyone,

I’m actively looking for a job switch in QA Automation. I have 3 years of experience in Automation Testing and am targeting opportunities around ₹11 LPA.

If anyone can genuinely help me land a suitable QA Automation role, I’m willing to offer 3 months of my salary as a reward for the successful help/referral.

Please DM me if you can help. I’ll share my CV and further details privately.

Thanks in advance!

Hi People,

I got laid off 6 months ago and since then I am struggling to find another one. Please help if any leads. I'm open to Quality Analyst, Scrum Master, Product Owner, Business Analyst, and Project Manager roles, with 5+ years of experience. Looking for a Bangalore location.

I am looking for a solid opportunity. Something like an open position you know about or any manager or colleague you know who is hiring on their team. It would really help me.

Thanks in advance!
