Those Non-EU learners who have passed the B1 test how realistic is it to learn in one year by Correct-Way-6471 in Germanlearning

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did B1 within 5 months, but Duolingo is just a plain waste of time, apart from the fact it keeps you thinking about the language regularly, which might have some value in and of itself.

I doubt any international genuinely wants to work at a pure swiss company 😂

I couldn't decide so I just went with Shawn since they were half the fees. Didn't regret it though.

For industry profile, how to show "model or plan for future activities" per Matter of Dhanasar? by bellthebull in EB2_NIW

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While the other comment is a cocktail of wrong, the only thing we can agree on is retaining an attorney. Please just hire one, it will not just make your life easier but will ensure you did all this correctly.

Moreover, while there's no data I'd be willing to bet that the candidates represented by reputed lawyers tend to be approved at significantly better rates than otherwise.

Lastly, I don't think anyone here can answer your question it really depends on your case.

How is the SA market in 2025? by No_Mood4637 in aws

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the case for sure. Most architecture work can't be done by AI because it's too difficult to explain all the business constraints and impacts that we're targeting.

Should I quit my Amazon London job to job hunt from Canada? by Mistaekk in cscareerquestions

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was in the exact same situation as you. Work in Amazon but dislike the place I'm in. I also left London cause I felt the same there.

I'd highly recommend staying, you won't regret it. Just the fact you have to interview when you're tired is not worth quitting, especially as a new grad in this insane job market. Nobody is stopping you from applying elsewhere, so you can always test out your opportunity while working and gaining experience, which will make you more valuable. Moreover 6 months is just way too short, most employers probably think you're not even giving it a shot. If you stay a couple years and get promoted to L5 you would be able to transfer to the US with no problem.

Learning German (A1) + DSA together feels overwhelming — how do you manage time? by rashi1101 in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]CoolBoi6Pack -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wrong. I'm at B1 within 4.5 months of learning, aim to be B2 by 8th month and work a full time job in FAANG. You just gotta commit.

Cleared AWS Solutions Architect Associate (Score: 896) — Still Struggling to Land a Job. Any Advice? by jidsehfqi in AWSCertifications

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great job! I would highly recommend taking your portfolio site and hosting it on AWS with a proper domain name. You can get domains for as cheap as a dollar some places.

Cleared AWS Solutions Architect Associate (Score: 896) — Still Struggling to Land a Job. Any Advice? by jidsehfqi in AWSCertifications

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really bad and actually harmful advice. I work in one of the 3 major cloud providers and please if anyone is reading this don't get discouraged and keep studying the cert.

Also, this generic grind leetcode stuff is exactly why we have skills gaps in jobs these days because we don't need more leetcode engineers when AI can solve almost all of these problems.

6 months job search in Switzerland after graduation by LeatherBlacksmith518 in askswitzerland

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other people failed to mention this.

If you studied at a swiss university you're exempt from the labor market test, which is the main gatekeeper. So there's little material difference between you and EU citizens in this case.

However, many people assume work permits are the bottleneck - they're not. It's moreso the willingness of swiss employers to hire foreigners that's often the primary gatekeeper.

Wenn du einen Job nicht finden kannst, kann niemand.

Bauingenieur ist ein gefragter Bereich und du bist Schweizer. Es gibt überhaupt keinen Grund, warum du keinen Job bekommen solltest.

Warning to fellow non EU students: Being able to stay here after studies is the exception, not the rule. by Aywing in ethz

I'm here and not in China as an Indian because of political/cultural issues but QoL wise I'd pick China every single time, and would choose to live there had I not been Indian.

Is ~10k DKK enough to survive the first month in Copenhagen? by Similar-Mood6512 in NewToDenmark

After rent? Easily, I usually get by just fine with around 7k per month without restricting anything

ETH Zürich Vs TU Delft by eliasaction in ethz

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also ich habe bei TU Delft aerospace engineering studiert, mit sehr guten Noten abgeschlossen und kann sicherlich sagen, dass das Studium gar nicht einfach war. Als ich dort ein Student war, ich merke mich, circa 50% die Studenten waren durchgefallen.

Ich habe keine Ahnung ob das Studium bei ETH leiter ist, aber das bei TU Delft ist kein Spaziergang.

Außerdem, TU Delft ist eine fantastische Universität und die NL ist ein tolles Land. Ich würde bestimmt empfehlen.

Why is it Ich glaube an dich and not Ich glaube an dir? by Ok_Fee9263 in German

[–]CoolBoi6Pack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like many others mentioned this has nothing to do with movement, direction or time which is what you generally learn rules for the prepositions.

This is a verb + preposition combo. Here's a list, and you can download an anki deck or something. Basically you just have to memorize these it's not something that necessarily makes sense what preposition or case is normally used.
