Tip for contractors - Don't submit your 6-7 pages resume when applying for FT. 1 page is more than enough and 2 means you are stretching. Even Sunder Pichai doesn't have resume more than 1 page.

Mostly ivvi anni thella vallaku work out avuthayyi kanni, very rarely useful for our Desi folks, Esp if the hiring manager is Desi, that too you have one of Witch implementation partner and C2C positons, All the above will not help and waste.
