What this covers
- The 60-day sprint structure: prep weeks 1-2, ramp 3-4, full-cadence 5-8
- Daily and weekly targets (apps sent, DMs sent, problems solved, interviews booked)
- The kill-criteria that tell you to change strategy at day 30 if numbers are off
- The single-page dashboard that replaces 6 different spreadsheets
Why this matters for Indian devs going remote
Indian devs treat job-searching as ambient — sending 3 apps a week and waiting. Remote roles get 800 applicants in 48 hours. Without a sprint with real numbers, you stay in scattered mode for 9 months. A 60-day sprint with kill-criteria gets you to either an offer or a clear pivot — not stuck.
Outline
Week-by-week structure
TODO — prep, ramp, full cadence, debrief. Hour budgets for each phase.
The daily and weekly numbers
TODO — apps/day, DMs/day, LC/day, blog posts/week, interviews/week. Real targets, not aspirational.
Day-30 kill-criteria
TODO — if you have fewer than X interviews, change which lever — apps, targeting, or resume.
The single-page dashboard
TODO — what's on it (funnel: apps → screens → onsites → offers), where it lives, daily update ritual.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Tracking apps sent but not response rate (you'll never spot the bad resume)
- Running indefinitely with no kill-criteria — you'll grind for 6 months in the wrong direction
- Skipping the day-30 review because the numbers feel bad
Templates / examples
TODO — a 60-day sprint Notion template with daily checklists, a funnel dashboard (Google Sheet), and a day-30 review prompt list.
