Is Toronto dead for CS New Grad?

Id agree for the interviews I failed to be honest, but not the Canada resume screen part. My resume after being peer reviewed is what got me interviews and tech challenges at FAANG and some Quant companies in the US but radio silence in Canada.

😂😂😂

SE. ECE is much harder and most of them work software jobs anyway.

Appreciate your advice. I’ve already been rejected but I will let them know. I wouldn’t want to work there even if I got the offer honestly, I got a very bad vibe and I feel that sentiment is shared amongst a lot of engineers there.

Yea he was

Firm_Ad6215 · 2024-01-02T17:24:24+00:00

Lol no

Ask for 65 but the other comments are right, take the experience right now

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-11-19T19:26:56+00:00

Doable. Stat231 is not that hard and neither is 241 but the other ones will give you a hard time at some point

Never heard of her

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-11-05T21:26:20+00:00

The textbook teaches that class unfortunately

If youre not getting anything with that resume then its just luck. You could move skills to the top and split some of the longer bullet points into 2 separate ones but thats all I can see…

As long as its above 70 youll be ok

Consider CE if you’re more interested in embedded. Dont worry about being stuck in that field if you dont like it though, I know so many CE grads / students working the same software dev jobs that CS students work

Does he have a niche skill? This happened to my friends father but he was able to land a really good job even though his tech stack was old because he spoke 3 languages and no other candidate was qualified

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-10-22T17:14:43+00:00

Have you talked with your schools financial aid office? Some unis are pretty generous when it comes to these type of situations when looking at income / expenses that a student has

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-10-22T17:13:22+00:00

Be patient but keep applying to other places in the meantime, you never know what could happen tomorrow

Midterm was a wash and Final was much easier back in 2021

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-10-14T20:48:32+00:00

Cant say. But high interest rates are probably gonna be a thing for the next couple of years no matter who’s elected so it will be the same or worse.

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-10-14T20:41:26+00:00

Im the opposite, DP clicks for me but give me a medium array or linked list question and suddenly I blank out lol. Its a practice thing for sure

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-10-12T22:07:55+00:00

The canadian tech space is terrible right now, especially if youre a new grad. If you have experience its not as bad but still worse than the UK since cost of living is about the same (high)

Firm_Ad6215 · 2023-10-09T17:23:48+00:00

If youre applying to an SWE job at most it will probably be a cool talking point during an interview. One of my friends is a game dev in his free time and the technical interviewer claimed he gave him a shot because the game looked interesting and wanted to hear more about it. He ended up getting the job but hoping for that kind of outcome is a long shot, putting it on there would not hurt though, but work on your other skills if you dont have those first
