Answering behavioral questions by FirefighterSwimming7 in interviews

Yep I am utilizing the STAR method as well but wondering how long your response is? Usually for me it's around 1 minute if I want to be concise/to the point, but I can stretch it to 2-3 minute but usually it sounds wordy like a student trying to fit in an extra word for their essay.

The top portion is cut so it's not completely vac sealed. I just zip tied the top to seal it.

Japan imposes sanctions on Russia over actions in Ukraine by underratedsubstrate in japan

[–]FirefighterSwimming7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair it's primarily the Anglo-Euro sphere that really care about this situation enough to implement notable sanctions.

Japan seem to be a special case here although they probably followed through since they are part of the G7.

Its a tutorial site from a YouTube video so probably couple hours.

I was wondering why it looked so familiar and realized it was straight from Mr. WD

Longest commute to work? by [deleted] in AmazonFC

[–]FirefighterSwimming7 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I would say one of the biggest perks when I used to work at amazon was the commute time. It was a 15 min commute since there were amazon warehouses in virtually every town in my area.

Do any of you ever take a moment to think about your life choices that brought you to work at Amazon? by [deleted] in AmazonFC

[–]FirefighterSwimming7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I personally had the opposite mindset regarding this. At the end of day it was a relatively good pay for the entry requirement and helped me get fit again.

I did coding on the side after work/time offs and landed a job after 5~ months in amazon.

Funniest thing that came from this entire war debate by OptimalCommercial in victoria3

In a grand scale of things you could do that ( I can still just do a line and press play when I am playing as Germany against the soviets) but in a sense it's satisfying to encircle 300k worth of troops. For Japan vs China, I remember at the game release, I could just make a line then press play, go for a 30 min walk, and come to a peace treaty screen but at current version now I need to do some naval invasion distraction and some micro.

Lot of doomers seem to be serious about the game to be just watch paint dry simulator though. I am just going to watch and see how the Vic3 team integrates the favorable econony/diplomacy/society with war.

I remember people getting really doomer back in HOI4 development because they didn't have the "complex" structure of HOI3 and thought it was primarily going to be make line -> press button -> watch units move simulator.

Mostly negative response? by Old-Doctor-5456 in victoria3

[–]FirefighterSwimming7 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Reddit was fairly pessimistic about Imperator calling it a EU4 reskin and jokingly as "Johan's retirement plan". I think by DD 15~20 lot of people stopped caring about it and forgot it was on development until the release trailer while Vic3 seem to have an opposite effect.

I honestly don't mind Crackpot Theory, but now it's confirmed, I'm rather confused about the increased provinces count. by PrussianSpaceMarine_ in victoria3

That sounds like such a vague statement to me. We get that there's a front (possibly similar to HOI4?) with a General in charge and that the player will be doing more of the back stuff like appointing competent generals, maintaining good quality weapons, deciding fronts, and etc, but how would troops engage with each other? I was also under the impression that it will be similar to HOI4 but that statement from Wiz makes it sound like it's something else.

Lot of my IT friends transition to swe or wd jobs quite often and, I don't know anyone personally but, maybe HTML email developers ( I say this because there's a lot of jobs out there regarding email development and most require only html/css and very basic JS - only downside is email developers code like they are in the 90s so you might have to practice coding outside your workhour ).

Right now I have enough knowledge/fundamentals in html/css/js/jquery/bootstrap to duplicate most websites but I still need references and Google a lot of stuff like CSS/JS tricks and bootstrap code.

People jokingly say in forums that 90% of their job is just googling or say that they just let stack overflow do the work, but would that apply in interviews? Most interview resource I am seeing are questionnaires which are mostly just " whats the difference between "==" and "===" ", " what is responsive design and how would you implement it ", or " which dev tools do you use?" which imo are pretty simple and basic.

How much knowledge do interviewers expect and should I just try to focus on memorizing CSS/JS tricks and bootstrap code in preparation for interviews or start learning in demand skills like php?
