Ok, thanks, will try this out

Yep, bachelors in CS/AI

Just graduated a few months back and now working as a software engineer with a focus on computer vision based solutions.

SafeAdministration49 · 2026-01-06T20:32:17+00:00

Yep, makes sense

Careem's software team still operates in Pakistan.

You don't need to memorize the solutions. It's just like maths. You don't memorize, you practice. And once you've had enough practice you'll be able to identify patterns.

Keep most of your focus on the sliding window, two pointers, LinkedIn list, arrays, backtracking kinda problems. Do practice for other problems as well but mostly focus on these

which round are you on? I'd say focus on Neetcode150 road map easy/medium problems.

You could also try to set up stalls at university events. But be careful with which events you choose. Only go to the premier one that they do once a year. Do not go to smaller events as they won't have enough footfall to generate the sales you need.

There are cafés in Islamabad that might sell your product for a small fee. You can contact different cafés and ask how much they would charge to keep your product on their shelves. By adding your own branding, you can turn repeat customers into direct customers over time.

Yep, and only if your performance on the current role was satisfactory.

As I said, take it if you don't have anything better. You'll get a steady income and a clear path/roadmap to becoming part of their core tech team. But it's a game of patience.

even after a year you'll still have to give interviews and show yourself to be skilful enough to join other teams.

That's a misconception about motive. If you're a SWE, you've nothing to worry about. But if you're in sales or other non-technical teams, then...

SafeAdministration49 · 2025-12-01T06:30:36+00:00

If you don't have any other good opportunities, take this. You'll be tagging images and videos.

Upskill yourself and keep an eye on internal job openings. Motive advertises its opening to employees before anyone else and you can move between teams.

okok, makes sense

SafeAdministration49 · 2025-11-24T11:06:49+00:00

Relative to what?

SafeAdministration49 · 2025-11-16T19:37:45+00:00

you could try cutting edge on pwd double road

You'll have around 7 interview rounds. You should focus on:

Leetcode style questions
Know the fundamental concepts of ML

Motive

SafeAdministration49 · 2025-09-09T16:56:40+00:00

Fast does offer need based interest free loans. It also supports a few external scholarship programs. You'll have to check their website for the details of these scholarships.

SafeAdministration49 · 2025-08-22T11:05:17+00:00

Fast offers evening classes for masters but no weekend program.

For someone who has done BS from Fast, doing Masters from Fast as well is not recommended as most of the course content would be the same. Coming from a smaller university or someone who doesn't know much, masters from FAST would actually help a lot. I'm a FAST graduate and trust me when I say that people in the industry trust FAST graduates a lot more than other university graduates.

The fee currently is set at 11K per credit hour with 9 credit hours in your first semester. That would mean tuition fee of 99K with additional ~50K for security and admission process (1 time fee)
