US-based NRI techie shares how he landed a 6-figure salary job with help of AI:'Created multiple customised CVs'

While many would turn up their noses at the thought of using ChatGPT to refine your resume, an Indian-origin techie utilised the power of AI to land a six-figure job. In an interview with Business Insider , Malhar Shah, a US-based tech professional, revealed how he accomplished this feat. The techie, seeking senior engineering positions at a time when opportunities were scarce and competition was fierce. With applicant tracking systems (ATS) discarding the majority of résumés before recruiters ever saw them, Shah understood that he needed an edge to stand out from hundreds of other applicants. To gain that advantage, he turned to two of today's most advanced AI assistants—ChatGPT and Google's Gemini. Independence Day 2025 Modi signals new push for tech independence with local chips Before Trump, British used tariffs to kill Indian textile Bank of Azad Hind: When Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose gave India its own currency Crafting Multiple Tailored Résumés Instead of simply producing one document and submitting it everywhere, Shah adopted a more deliberate strategy. He developed four distinct, customised résumés, each designed for specific roles he was pursuing: technical lead, staff engineer, engineering manager, and principal engineer. Every version went through several iterations, with ChatGPT and Gemini providing feedback. Interestingly, the evaluations were not always consistent. On one occasion, ChatGPT scored a résumé nine out of ten, while Gemini rated the same draft only seven. At times, even the same platform would assign different scores based on how the prompt was framed. As he explained to Business Insider, these ratings were not final judgments but rather conversational benchmarks that guided him toward clearer, stronger applications. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Undo Using AI as a Reviewer, Not a Replacement Shah emphasized that he never used AI to fabricate content or produce an entirely artificial résumé. Instead, the platforms acted like an additional reviewer, offering suggestions on language, structure, and emphasis. Feedback helped him refine phrasing, highlight leadership achievements, and integrate keywords that ensured ATS systems did not overlook his application. The tools also assisted him in reformatting sections and sharpening the narrative of his professional journey. Rather than chasing a mythical 'perfect résumé,' Shah prioritized accuracy and authenticity, shaping existing material with greater clarity. Balancing Technology With Human Wisdom Although AI proved critical to his process, Shah credits human advice for keeping him grounded. A former colleague advised him not to let job hunting dominate his life. Following that counsel, Shah limited his application efforts to no more than two hours each day, dedicating additional time to continuous learning and family life. This balance, he told Business Insider, helped him remain productive and avoid exhaustion during the lengthy search. Beyond Résumés: Expanding AI's Role Shah also extended his use of AI into other aspects of the hiring process. He asked the tools to help him draft more persuasive cover letters and to simulate mock interviews. Both behavioral and technical interview sessions were rehearsed with AI, allowing him to polish his delivery and anticipate questions. The rapid cycles of practice and instant feedback gave him an edge that traditional preparation methods rarely provide.

Swiggy Raises Platform Fee To Rs 14, Marks 600% Hike In Two Years

Food delivery major Swiggy has once again hiked its platform fee for food delivery orders, now by Rs 2. Citing a rise in customer transactions during the festive season, the company has increased the fee from Rs 12 to Rs 14 to capitalise on the festive demand. The food delivery platform has been consistently increasing the fees. Swiggy's fee climbed from Rs 2 in April 2023 to Rs 6 in July 2024 and Rs 10 in October 2024. The current fees of Rs 14 are a staggering 600 per cent rise in just over two years. Swiggy processes over 2 million orders daily, and at current platform fee levels, this generates an additional income of crores of rupees daily. The company was yet to react to the increased platform fee. Swiggy reported a net loss of Rs 1,197 crore year-on-year (YoY) for the June quarter (Q1 FY26), almost double the Rs 611 crore loss it posted in the same period previous year (Q1 FY25). On quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis, the Bengaluru-based firm posted a net loss of Rs 1,081 crore in the previous quarter (Q4 FY25), according to its stock exchange filing. The widening losses were mainly due to its Quick Commerce division, Instamart, where the financial strain deepened sharply. Zomato and Swiggy have previously tested higher platform fees on high-demand days. If order volumes remained unaffected, they maintained the new fee structure. Zomato has also implemented five hikes in under two years, a 400 per cent increase. Zomato has also implemented five hikes in under two years, a 400 per cent increase. Due to the Swiggy-Zomato duopoly imposing commission rates up to 35 per cent, restaurant owners are forced to inflate menu prices, making online orders over 50 per cent costlier than dining in, according to multiple surveys. The companies have also been consistently facing criticism for failing to improve worker conditions despite multiple fee increases for consumers.

Nifty may swing between -11% to +4% around 25,000 amid macro uncertainty: Report

New Delhi [India], August 16 (ANI): Nifty of National Stock Exchange (NSE) may swing between -11 per cent and +4 per cent from its year-end target of 25,000, as markets navigate a range of evolving macro risks, including potential trade tariffs, shifts in the US economic outlook, and central bank policy actions by the Fed and RBI, BofA Securities said in a report. BofA points to several key risks clouding the market outlook — including potential US trade tariffs on Indian goods, a cloudy US macroeconomic scenario, delayed or insufficient fiscal and monetary policy responses, and the implications of state elections across six major Indian states, which together account for over 16 per cent of India's public subsidy and capex spending.'We keep our Nifty year-end target intact at 25k but expect Nifty to swing -11% to 4% vs this target, as markets reacts to emerging developments around key factors such as trade tariffs, US economic outlook, FED/RBI cuts, potential policy/fiscal support to offset tariff impact, etc," the report firm expects Nifty earnings growth to remain subdued, projecting 7 per cent growth in FY26 and 11 per cent in FY27, well below the Street's expectations of 9 per cent and 15 per cent, respectively. Each earnings season, it warns, could bring corrections rather than sustained firm sees a potential upside if India implements some timely legislative and fiscal reforms, possibly funded by higher RBI dividends, asset sales, fuel duties, and leveraged capex to publicly available market data, the Nifty at NSE and the BSE Sensex have not performed as expected, as both benchmarks have continued their worst losing streak in over two decades. Nifty 50 and Sensex have so far declined about three per cent, contributing to cumulative drops of approximately 12.6 per cent and 11.7 per cent, respectively, from their all-time highs set in September last year.
