So that I was searching a job. 4 days back I was thing to pray Istekhara Salat and pray for my needs. But I was not able to pray and that night I saw a dream that "My CTO Doubled my Salary". Can you please tell about this.

Answer

May Allah Ta?ala grant you barakah in your earnings, Aameen.

This is a world of cause and effect. You should adopt the means and make du?aa to Allah Ta?ala to put effect in the means you have adopted.

We advise you request your CTO for an increase in salary. Also recite the du?aa, ?Allaahumma ikfiniy bihalaalika an haraamika wa aghniniy bi fadhlika amman siwaaka?.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
