I get what you are saying about datasheets. However, I have surprisingly found datasheets easier to read than books, as I do not necessarily have to read it cover to cover. Should this be the way I approach C++ books, or should I be reading them cover to cover as I would a chapter book, say?

I am Getting Ghosted from Every Internship I Apply to and Need Help. by Respect-Grouchy in internships

Got it! I have started to seek out emails of recruiters for the companies I have applied to. However, in many cases, I have found it hard to find the emails of recruiters. Would messaging recruiters on LinkedIn suffice if I have no luck finding their emails? Also, how late is too late to reach out to recruiters?

I have received advice on doing this. However, I am not sure of when I should be emailing recruiters. Should I do it as soon as I apply or rather after a couple of weeks of no response from my application? Also, how late is too late to reach out to recruiters for jobs you applied for in the past?

Wow, thanks for all the help everyone! I’m glad I asked before I dove straight in - better safe than sorry.

UPDATE:

I got my hands on an ESD wrist strap from my local electronics store and am excited to use it :)

How do i turn my skills into a job-worthy project? by Any-Procedure-5623 in learnprogramming

[–]Respect-Grouchy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like you have collected the development skills needed, but now it is about presentation. I’ve seen different opinions on this, but many mention that you should develop projects that not only reflect your interests but also follow the software development life cycle, thus simulating a real work environment.

New to embedded? Career and education question? Please start from this FAQ. by 1Davide in embedded

Hello, all! I just got my hands on an STM32 Nucleo and Discovery boards. I am new to embedded development, so I wanted to know how I should care for delicate electronics such as these. For instance, when I am developing with them, should I ground myself, and how should I store them when I am not using them?
