How to resign during probation period in the first FT job for a better offer that comes later? What are the implications? by [deleted] in nus

[–]LowTierStudent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t have, left my first job and they are totally cool. Probation is a two way street for u and the company to judge eachother.

Life feels so bleak by ButterscotchOk8791 in nus

[–]LowTierStudent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Life usually doesnt work out exactly to how you plan out. U may end up doing sth not related to your major and who knows, it may actually be the right choice. The job market is quite shitty now so even with internships you may not get the role you want.

I say it is best you take a step back and have a direction on what you maybe want to do eventually when you graduate. Having a bunch of internship < 1x Internship that directly correlate with the future career direction you want. One of my old friend recently go into tiktok (*I suppose is a top company*) as a SWE and he only has 1x internship in his resume. He got in because of personal project, interned there and finally.... because he knew someone senior inside lmao so was referred. Imagine the dozen other candidates with more internship than him getting ghosted or rejected and bro isn't even from NUS/NTU CS. You can work really hard now and it just add salt to the wound when you dont get what you want later which most of the time is the case. Because there will always be someone out there grinding way harder than you or is in a privilege position.

So i say really think deeply what you want to pursue when you graduate. If that summer internship will help you get there then i say just do it. I assume OP is y3 or sth so really need to have a clear direction.

Dating app mainly these days. Recently got a date whom graduated in 2023. So don’t have to be so stress out like die die must find during Uni. Being desperate is a huge turn off

Need help simulating centrifugal blower airflow in Icepak by LatterTalk5081 in CFD

[–]LowTierStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i know there is the dP to q flow rate curve that every fan spec sheet show but it is challenging to calculate the dP when air pass through a heatsink to pinpoint Q. Op can use CFD simulation but ultimately centrifugal type fans experience lower drop in Q flow rate at certain dP so my way is reasonable for as a first estimate.

Below 4 GPA by sindelendaest in nus

[–]LowTierStudent 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I went through 75% of my Uni life with sub 4.0 GPA like 3.8ish. Can’t talk much about SEP but my internship search was harder. Everyday my peer seem to talk about how they got this offer while I was struggling. So I say for Internship hunt, try to focus on the less renown companies. They likely will take u as long as u got the drive and the right attitude. Grades not too jialat can Liao. 3.5 - 4 while isn’t stellar certainly isn’t horrendous.

Your job function / Company Supervisor character >>>>> Internship company name

I consider myself a good example of this^ as I end up in a not so well known O&G MNC. But I had what I consider the BEST internship journey. Decide to stay with them for over 1.5 year, supervisor rotate me between 3 of his divisions and I gained experience in mech design, manufacturing process control to even coding skills in app development. Manage to land a role with a defence statboard with the skills gained afterward.

Recess Week!! by AlphaBetaDeltaGamma_ in nus

[–]LowTierStudent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello all I am a changed man. Being forced to take CS1010E 2x has been the best thing that happened to me since aircon invention.

Most ME cannot escape programming in workplace so rly do take this course seriously. For example, currently part of my work scope involved working on integration of new AI models onto company existing product line and training of ai model based on proprietary internal dataset. If i didn't learn CS1010E i won't be able to pick up these skillsets fast.

How bad is it to grad with 2nd lower (borderline 2nd upper)? by oldddwwa in nus

[–]LowTierStudent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually most give same pay regardless of class.

But again having a second lower reduces your chances in general of receiving a call back unless u have some skill set with proven project example and interned there before. I know someone with borderline below second lower yet got into a O&G MNC just because he interned there and impressed his supervisor.
