What is the meaning of 5x Developer?
5X Developer is someone who is getting a package i.e. CTC of 5 times years of work experience (based on Indian currency). For example, 5X developer with 10 years of corporate experience would be getting a CTC of 50 lac/annum, 2X developer with 10 years of experience would be getting a CTC of 20 lac/annum.
So do you want to become 5X Developer?
Majority of the software engineers in even renowned companies are 1X to 3X developer, as they are not aware about 5X developers opportunities in software industry. Under WorldClassTechTalent.com, we are making deserving software engineers aware about the secret behind 5X Software Developers.

FAQ
Qn: Is this webinar useful for software engineers in testing, devops, infrastructure etc?
Vikas: In my experience so far, there are some key benefits of being a software developer hence incase you like to know those benefits, this program would be helpful to you. But if you want to continue with your existing profile, then you may get only partial benefits.
Qn: What are the benefits you yourself achieved?
Vikas: I got 70% hike when I moved from IBM to McAfee and another 70% hike was offered by Microsoft. So I could increase my CTC to around 4 times of my package in IBM within 3 years. And later realized that there is much more scope.
