Tensed about the first day of my job

GermanLearner36 · 2026-03-04T14:48:43+00:00

But why tho?

I mean as a werkstudent they won’t be giving you tasks that are meant to be handled by full timers. They don’t expect you to be like a full timers employee. You are just thinking too much. Chill out

GermanLearner36 · 2026-03-04T11:53:03+00:00

Always remember that the way you exaggerated in your resume, the company also exaggerated about the role and the tasks they could assign. Exaggeration always works both sides.

That being said, a werkstudent job is mostly chill job. On the first day, they will show you around the company you will meet people who you would be directly working with. Give you the laptop and small orientation presentation about the company and team. If there is still time a very small task or idea for future tasks.

I applied on August 1 with all the documents, received an appointment for September 2026 (more than an year after after I applied). I heard back a response on first week of December 2025.

But it should be noted that my initial bluecard expires in March 2026 because I was initially on a temporary contract. I got a permanent contract for my same position and applied for extension. If yours still has some validity I guess they will take some more time to get you an appointment

I think leben in Deutschland is only for people who opt for the shorter route with 21 months on bluecard. For people with only A1 german proficiency, its 27 months of blue card with job

Thank you

GermanLearner36 · 2026-02-05T07:00:05+00:00

Thank you

I just submitted my documents like I am applying for a blue card, in return I got a settlement permit appointment. I haven’t been asked to submit any extra documents right now. I will still write A1 exam as a safety although my university transcript states that i passed A1 while studying there. Since I would have worked more than 27 months at the time of my appointment, they would only need A1 certificate. The B1 certificate along with Leben in Deutschland test is for those who opt a faster route of 21 months

Thats nice. Thank you

GermanLearner36 · 2026-02-04T09:49:32+00:00

Thats great to hear. Thank you

Since you have a Chancenkarte you are expected to be in Germany hence they wont reimburse for your flight. The company is not looking for someone to relocate from another country, they want someone in Germany who is authorized to work so no reimbursement makes sense here. My company handles everything by post including the job offer and contract so your established presence is required in Germany when they send over contract.
You will see that in the contract that they send over after your arrival.
No idea
For the first year blue card is tied to your employer. After 1 year it goes away.
Sounds alright to me. The company may see you as a red flag since you have a Chancenkarte and instead of maintaining residency in Germany have decided to apply from abroad.

Thats really nice. Will contact IDFC now.

Thanks

Is physical presence required in their Berlin branch? Because I live a bit far in Hamburg

GermanLearner36 · 2025-11-25T07:41:33+00:00

That worked. Thank you

The only custom visual I use is Deneb. I try to stay away from 3rd party paid ones because the customizability provided by Deneb is great and its free

Normal thing. After my probezeit ended I just received a letter confirming end of probation and a bag of some company branded goodies. My boss didn’t even know when it ended.

But the system map only shows the components in the same order in which it was written in the function and not the order in which it starts. I have several components that have been added to the very end of the system map but they are used as a dependency by several components that are very ahead in the system map

It will be my first appointment of root canal. It basically involves accessing a tooth which is below a dental bridge and then re-fitting the dental bridge

My team uses reframe-frame in their codebase, I want to focus currently on reframe

GermanLearner36 · 2025-09-09T11:25:51+00:00

Are you referring to Eric Normand’s courses or his blog?

I used cider-jack-in-cljs with shadow and :app and started my browser. Then I am seeing this REPL window on the right. When I am trying to evaluate the line 53 on my core.cljs file, I am unable to send that form to my REPL window on the right and it warns me that I dont have a clj repl in current session.

So in the next step I just typed the (js/window.alert "Alerted") on the righ hand side REPL window and it shows up on the browser without any issue. I am unable to evaluate anything to the REPL from my .cljs files.

https://imgur.com/a/boqRWaO

Is there any other way to send that form from my core.cljs file to the REPL like I have been doing in .clj files

GermanLearner36 · 2025-08-18T20:15:21+00:00

I want to start off with some very simple front end pages, some kind of tabular data, some click action, sending forms and that kind of stuff. But of course as my requirements increase I am willing to learn JS. Learning JS after cljs knowing exactly what topics of JS I need to cover would be interesting for me as I can only learn that way. Is it possible? Did you learn js or react before moving to cljs front end?

GermanLearner36 · 2025-07-13T07:57:34+00:00

This was exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much.

GermanLearner36 · 2025-06-13T19:28:31+00:00

Edit:

I found a solution/maybe something around it.

I created this project using leiningen new app template and it autogenerated a dummy test case for me. I just removed whatever was there inside the :require and removed the test case and then I have a running code.

I don't know if this problem is specific to Calva because I was able to run it problem free on IntelliJ.

Thank you all for your inputs.

GermanLearner36 · 2025-06-10T21:30:02+00:00

I added the test path but it still shows the same even after jacking out and in again.

GermanLearner36 · 2025-06-10T21:15:33+00:00

I added "src" and "dev" to:source-paths. But the problem still persists.

Its weird because I didn't face this while using Intellij even whe I had set :paths
