Hi,I am also from India(staying in Bangalore) and would like some advice from you.I have over 5 years of experience as a Programmer.For the first 3 years I have worked as a contractor.From the last 2 years I am working as a Software Engineer in a small startup and my take home salary is 70000INR(monthly).I want to switch to a more stable job with better salaries.I have never worked for a big company.What does it take to earn such salaries in India?I did not pass out from any Tier 1 institute.Currently I am preparing for interviews with help of CTCI and CLRS books.It would be helpful if you can give me some advice on what measures I can take to get a job at one of the better paying companies.
