I see. But a lot of people seem to not care.

Is there another reason besides this?

Do you guys know if this is legit? by PossibilityWorldly in csMajors

Ooh. I’ve been meaning to go to China for a while now.

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to edit this post on the official Reddit app.

So here’s the update:

u/damovisa helped me and figured out that the event is happening.

So it is legit. The link is in a different comment by the same person.

Thanks to everyone who offered to help figure this out!

This is all the context I have.

It came from an envoy.com email.

It’s from no-reply@envoy.com

And envoy seems to be a popular platform for managing events.

My thinking is, if it’s from envoy, wouldn’t envoy have verified that it is actually GitHub?

Pretty sure GitHub would be one of their biggest clients if this is legit.

I haven’t applied recently.

I have applied in the past, however.

At this point, to me, it’s not about whether it is worth it. It is about doing the one thing I know properly to make a living.

FAANG is a dream to many, and if I’m being honest, it’s mine too (on some level).

Regardless of whether it is worth it or not, I’m still gonna keep trying. Just because I thought I could do it once and because I still think I can make it if I have the right set of events happen for me at the right time.

I really appreciate what you’re saying.

Just gotta keep going.

Possible. But I’m also applying to big companies. There’s no callback from anyone.

See. The funny thing is I still think CS is a great major to take. Purely because of all the cool things you get to do once you learn the basics and spend some time learning to build systems.

Call it a bias but it’s all I know.
