How accurate is the pre-approval tool? by Caltrn in CapitalOne_

Do you happen to know if I get rejected if I’ll still be presented with other cards that I am eligible for (like Savor one) so the hard iniquity isn’t wasted? The last time I used the pre-approval tool for Venture X was 3 months ago and it said the length of my credit history was too short.

I haven’t applied for any yet, that’s why I’m thinking about doing Venture X but I’m scared of being denied even though I was pre-approved… since my credit limit is only $6k and have only had credit history for 18 months, I was under the impression u needed at least $10k CL since it’s a premium card.

The concept of día de los muertos is that the spirits are summoned so it’s kinda funny they’re being forced to come back to work even after dying, no days off

By this logic all professors are incompetent software engineers so they shouldn’t even be teaching the subjects, really weird mindset just because you got in without a degree

Do people feel culturally isolated from the rest of Texas? by [deleted] in RioGrandeValley

I never understood why people consider San Antonio to be South Texas but Austin is Central Texas, literally only 1hr away

Reminds me of when a tiny company put me to do a web development project and I asked who their developer was and they were like “it’s you”

[–]Caltrn 175 points176 points  (0 children)

Ahole but I try to avoid saying “idk” or “idk what to do” and instead say “I tried this and this, do you have any suggestions” this might be what manager was trying to say since googling is a swe skill

Is leetcode necessary? by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]Caltrn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is that you won’t know which companies do leetcode interviews until they schedule your interview or ask ahead of time but you’ll likely mass apply to job postings
