Hi there,
I am currently working as a software engineer and I am pretty good at it. I work as a backend
Java developer and also some amount of tools development using JSP/JSTL/Spring/AJAX. I compare myself to the senior software engineers here and I feel I am better than them.
I have about 5 years of industry experience and a Master's degree. I have brought up this topic with my manager and though they gave me a raise, the title is still elusive, which makes me think it's time to look for another job.
How difficult do you guys think it is getting a higher title in a new job? Any tips on how to prepare for these interviews? What are the managers looking for?
Thanks !
