Greetings , People with career gaps exceeding one year, how did you manage to get back into IT , please share your experiences to help me in this phase. (4+ yoe) Highly demotivated. Not getting recruiter visibility, asked friends and ex colleagues for referrals , no avail. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thankyou.

Resigned from LTIMindtree in March 2026 with LWD in May. Despite being a top performer for 2 years and consistently receiving 4/4 ratings, my final rating was reduced to 1/4 after resignation, which impacted my variable pay eligibility. Disappointing experience, especially when my managers acknowledged my contributions and performance throughout the year.

It's been 7 months since I started my corporate journey after college, and honestly, I don't feel this is the life I want. The pressure, anxiety, and fear every day have been exhausting. I keep waiting for weekends just to feel relief. More than continuing, I genuinely feel like quitting and focusing on the career path I was actually interested in. Would appreciate guidance from experienced people who went through a similar phase. How did you handle it, and what helped you decide?

Not sure what to choose.
