He shared that as the first step, he created a target list using LinkedIn Jobs, Indeed, and Levels.fyi. He shortlisted about 30 international companies which were offering visa-sponsoring roles. After building a database, he “reverse-engineered job requirements.”
Modi explained he “Analysed 35–40 job descriptions. Noted repeated skills (≥60% frequency). Turned that into my prep roadmap.” Following this, he created a structured 10–12 week plan.
Alongside this, he also kept updating his skills using various resources. Further, he documented real work experiences.
Even before getting interview calls, he started practising the “international interview style”. Explaining what that entails, he shared, “Clear, structured answers. Admitted when I didn’t know. Focused on reasoning, not guessing.”
He also built a one-page global-standard CV that focused on impact and numbers. The techie didn’t stop there; he pushed on and underwent mock interviews to prepare.
It was after that he started applying strategically, ensuring he applied quickly and only to relevant roles. He strictly avoided mass applying.
The outcome? Modi shared, “ ₹1.8Cr international offer — cracked directly from India. No hacks. No shortcuts. Just a system followed consistently.”
He added, “If you’re in India aiming global roles, you don’t need to move first. You need to prepare right.”
