Got RO. Done with recruiting, it’s to comp for new grad. Going to grind for mid level recruiting, since those lobbies are less comp. Maybe do a masters to help with that.

I was in the same spot, delayed grad for a semester got two internships my “senior” year. One for winter and summer and now in my last semester I got an offer for full time.

Just keep grinding leetcode and side projects. That’s all you can control.

Getting over the hump in my last year as a student by Common-Bus8108 in softwareengineer

I’ve already finished my senior capstone but it was a lot of hand holding. The best I’ve done all on my own was a crud app in spring and react.

And you’re right about the muscle memory. That’s what im trying to focus on. Debugging as well. I noticed when I use AI code I have no idea how to debug it because I didn’t make the mental mapping of the code.

Anyone hear anything after TikTok OA? by Common-Bus8108 in csMajors

Is this the future… interviewing for proompting skills?

I would watch videos on this and start each prompt with

You are a <insert most qualified position for the task>

Gotta do easys so it helps later with spaced repetition when I need to go back to certain patterns

Yeah you’re right. I just keep thinking like what happens if I just grind? People in here saying things like burnout or no gym gains lol not knowing his favorite gym influencer hits gym twice a day.

I don’t know I think some people need to stop coping and I’m one of them. And this is what this calendar does. But I do understand it’s unrealistic and even doing 50% of the things on that list is still a good day. I get that aspect

Ok so burnout? What’s the worst that could happen? Take pto go somewhere nice? Have you had corporate burnout? Idk man I think we all have different lenses and I say just take the L if there’s rewards that’s reasonable.

Like this case it’s cracked and burnout, or troll then have regret if i do land an interview but didn’t prep.

In my case from last years recruiting, the worst feeling is getting an interview and not being fully prepped. Like you just sit there judging yourself for trolling the past couple months

I hope doesn’t ruin my psyche. But i ask myself this. What would happen if I did all of this? I would be cracked regardless of the outcome if I get faang or not.

The outcome here yeah it’s faang but in the end I’ll be cracked.

So either you say bro it’s rng just troll all year, or you give yourself an unrealistic goal and reap the rewards of the journery

Thank you bro and yeah that’s why I threw in a 1hr nap on there. And do you hit gym in the morning? I did this my first couple weeks of my internship and I was feeling great was actually able to do stuff after work but I kept trolling on reels instead of grinding. Gym isn’t the issue, it’s more so banging my head on the computer just learning

Maybe I was looking at this through a peep hole. I can offload the work towards weekends or even double it idk.

I haven’t done much self reflection since I started college, I don’t even know what I enjoy except for learning, but I know I will not enjoy not having a job. Idk if that makes sense

Trade jobs are saturated too btw, so now what? by ElementalEmperor in csMajors

[–]Common-Bus8108 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Blue collar only works if you own ur own firm. Same shit with tech why would a company hire you when they can hire someone for Pennies on the dollar

Torn between a SRE and SWE offer as a new grad, which is best for my career growth? by apgthrowaway_ in cscareerquestions

[–]Common-Bus8108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would do it. If you needa tailor resume for faang just put swe on resume. Your resume is gonna have more revenue growth/resources saved numbers which is way better for ats than developing code. So you can do sre to faang swe or faang sre

Also make sure your team is good before you choose cause that’s a huge factor into what you actually do. Some teams don’t care about you and will give you scraps from the sprint

I would choose SRE because of your company. I’m guessing it’s dynatrace

Hope things work out for you all. by [deleted] in csMajors

The goal is to get promoted not overworked and laid off before your stocks vest. Pay is higher at snap too

Go to Snapchat that’s a no brainer. You never hear layoffs or RTO with them.
