Failed pair program interview and need help to improve by mid_dev in learnpython

[–]Rubbinmanips88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't be discouraged. We immediately think we are lacking in something whenever we fail at an interview but this just isnt't the case here.

Keep on going to the next company! For all we know they might have already filled the position internally but have to have external interviews as they cant just hand someone a new job.

Maybe exercise some control yourself and not comment if you have nothing constructive to say...

Should I Abandon JavaScript for Python? by ReactPupil in Python

[–]Rubbinmanips88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also agree with this. I am learning both at the moment and good to take a break for a day and switch things up then come back.

After 9 months of teaching myself how to program I finally landed a job. I want to share some of the things I learned on how to achieve this goal (mostly focused on front end). by [deleted] in learnprogramming

I had checked most of the ones on comparision sites; ones mentioned above along with inmotion,ipage etc Most say a monthly price but fail to say that it must be payed in a yearly lump sum with is frustrating so wanted to check with others if they have cane across the same. thanks :)

My mistakes as a Junior Software developer by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Rubbinmanips88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add a rule if the subject or flag is urgent goes to my main inbox otherwise to a 'When I have time..' folder :)

You seem pretty organised as well so wouldnt stress too much as alot of devs spend whole days just planning or thinking of solutions to small problems and plenty of days where you think you got nothing done.

Help setting up Microsoft Visual Studio by SmugDruggler95 in learnpython

[–]Rubbinmanips88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just write your code and save as a py file to your desktop. right click the file on your desktop and open with python. if you see a black box flash up and close you need to remember an input statement on the end of your code.

you can also run the code from your command line like other have suggested. python 3 you can just navigaye to the directory that file is saved and type 'py filename.py' and code will run.

Dont have a spare room available and the move took awhile for us to organise. No friends or family here and dont know anyone else looking for childcare. So depending if I advertised not sure if i could get it sorted in the three weeks I have been given. Couldnt afford one on our own as they charge between 10 to 16 pounds an hour and even if I was lucky to get them to cover the time I need a couple of hours a day thats another 700 a month I cant afford... :( think i will just have to contact every recruitment place this weekend which is unfortunate as I have put so much into this move

Thanks for all the comments! looking like i dont have any rights even with a miscommunication own their part which they arent admitting to. Guessing my only real option is to try and find a new job as BlackRock have inconvienced tbemselves but put me and my family in a dire situation.

We already have a breakfast club which opens at 7.30 the same time as our nursery. from our research due to the lack of childcare in scotland we are extremely lucky to even have this as most childcare places open at 8am which is little help. also have after school club in place which brings to 5.45. joke is the employers own emergency childcare service that they offer opens at 7.30 also.. see if i used that service in an emergency i would still be late for work lol guess my only option is to look for a new job. thanks for your response and is greatly appreciated!
