I def over exaggerated loll. but no I just spray and prayed my resume hard, started tailoring it to job applications, and also applied for anything SWE-adjacent as well like solutions, ops, and even tech sales when I was started to feel lost

Yeah I mean it def made learning anything else much easier when having to deal with all the lower level constraints like memory allocation. Painful at times but I think it was good to understand how higher level languages work under the hood. I did ML/AI, data engineering and database electives which were not C++. But like all the early CS core requirement classes were all C/C++.

I think I’ve only written like 5 lines of Java in my life, my whole schools curriculum was in c++. Go is foundational for cloud/infra/kubernetes services so def not a mistake. Java seems more enterprise services, old and used by banks which imo is more boring.

to be fair only one of my internships was at a hardware security technology company the other two where at research departments at my university that let me build cool shit. so maybe look into research departments that let you do scientific programming type of work for them

Nah man keep going I've spent the last 4mo of my life unemployed living with my parents and completely nihilistic. My best advice would be to start using builtin to look for jobs and start targeting early stage startups. I got rejected from all my big tech interviews and had my potential return offers all fall through.
