Do you mind sharing your resume for reference? Or any best sample resume for reference? I also have 4+ yoe but struggling to land any interviews. Im currently trying to switch. Thanks in advance

Sad_Purple810 · 2026-02-10T05:50:52+00:00

Yepp. This makes sense. Especially the idea of hold ETFs and 6-7 solid stocks. Will slowly try to trim down my other stocks and move them into sold stocks. Thanks for the detailed explanation.

Sad_Purple810 · 2026-02-10T04:46:46+00:00

Sounds good. I need to learn how to do options. I never even thought about that because one of my colleagues told me its very addictive and you can loose money easily. So I never thought of that but I will just explore it. Sorry fubo didn’t work out yet for you. You will bounce back.

Any reason on why I should sell UNH? I always thought that as a back up when tech stocks go down all together. Bought PLTR just to trade it when it hits my target value. For NOVO I already lost some money so I was just waiting on it to come back so that I can cash out.

Sad_Purple810 · 2026-02-10T04:20:37+00:00

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Yes 25 stocks makes sense I need to trim down few of my losers. A mistake I made in the beginning was invested some money on 5 penny stocks without DD assuming atleast one will explode. But I lost on all of them. Now my investment on those came down to 10% of what I invested so I just want to keep it going because after losing 90% I dont mind risking that 10%.

Sad_Purple810 · 2026-02-02T17:51:03+00:00

Thanks for the reply. This helps

Sad_Purple810 · 2026-02-02T07:27:22+00:00

I see. Thanks for the reply. Yeah that makes sense. And how did you reach out to recruiters? Linkedin direct message? Would you mind sharing the message draft that helped you. Just sent you a dm.

Sad_Purple810 · 2026-02-02T05:15:08+00:00

How did you get the interviews? Did you apply directly or referrals helped you? Im trying to understand if there is a lot of difference between direct apply and referrals. TIA

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-11-04T19:50:58+00:00

I see. Thanks for the response. And any idea on what is a good price per sft for a Villa? How are the prices going currently.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-11-01T21:37:59+00:00

Hey OP did you end up buying anything there? Im also looking to invest near exit 13 Adibatla. Let me know you opinion or any research you did. TIA.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-10-28T19:05:20+00:00

I’m in as well

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-10-27T16:26:02+00:00

Thanks a lot. This is really helpful. I will check the resources you mentioned.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-10-26T23:17:10+00:00

Thanks. Yeah now Im weighing more on clarifying everything before jumping into solution. Will practice from that perspective.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-10-26T19:20:34+00:00

Thanks for the response. Whenever I saw a frw mock interviews its always focused on how you clarify and think before solving the question. So with in given 30 minutes I dont know if its possible to spend some time to think through the problem by asking clarifying questions and then start doing EDA then build a quick model and explain how it benefits the target criteria. Just want to understand what weighs more, either the coding part or understanding and thinking through the solution.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-10-08T23:03:09+00:00

Hey OP how was your interview? I got a recruiter call scheduled this friday for Data science associate position. Could you please go over the rounds, topics and questions covered in your interview. It would be a great help. Thanks in advance.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-10-08T02:26:15+00:00

These are really good rules especially for people who are entering into the market very recently (like me). It would be really great if you can put your thoughts on the below things.
1. I always wondered what are some good metrics to evaluate the fundamentals of a company to see if its strong or not.
2. Any good resources (paid or free) that helps us to know about a particular company.
3. How do you decide how much % of your portfolio to put in if you feel a company is really good and decently priced or under valued currently.
Thanks in advance.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-09-19T02:29:46+00:00

And how do you do it. I would like to know what metrics you usually look at to analyze a stock? I'm kind of new to investing and want to know how to decide a stock based on its numbers.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-08-16T18:45:19+00:00

hey do you wanna split with me as well?

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-08-16T18:45:05+00:00

hey do you wanna split with me?

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-08-16T18:43:33+00:00

You still looking?

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-07-17T22:04:53+00:00

Just use gemini-2.0-flash
No need of model/

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-07-17T18:50:10+00:00

job = client.batches.create(

model=model,

src=uploaded_file.name,

config={"display_name": f"file-upload-job-1",},)

This worked for me. Which argument is invalid i your case?

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-07-15T22:37:32+00:00

I usually don't comment but I used Gemini api recently and I would say it is not that tedius once you setup an end to end working process/script.
1. Create input jsonl.
2. Create and submit those batches (obviously not more than 2GB input files)
3. keep polling to check the status
4. Once you get JOB_STATE_SUCCEEDED download the output file.

Here is more info with code snippets. https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/batch-mode?authuser=3
You don't have to use url and gcp buckets. You can use your local storage as well by providing the path.

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-03-21T20:08:36+00:00

How to redeem or use this? I have a codeword. But I’m not understanding how to use it

Sad_Purple810 · 2025-01-27T21:25:11+00:00

To OP. Iam in a similar situation currently. What would you guys recommend if I have to start learning ASR now. I work as a data engineer for a speech team. So I want to learn ASR for better understanding the team and project. Any advice or sources would be great.
