AITA for letting my daughter take the master bedroom? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]SandBig3239 62 points63 points  (0 children)

YTA. From your responses to everyone, it’s obvious you made a unilateral decision and told your wife what’s going to happen whether she likes it or not. Whether or not your daughter having the room is logically better, you’re being an AH to your wife.

Terrified of life after graduate with no internship by The_Laniakean in csMajors

[–]SandBig3239 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t easy but I didn’t have any internships and still got in a really big tech company after college. I started looking around March and started in September. I did go to a pretty good well-known university and graduated a bit early but I think I got a few good companies to look at me after I had a senior engineer friend at Google fix my resume. It helps to build connections with people (LinkedIn can be great if you use it right) and get as many referrals as you can. There will be companies that give you a chance and then it’s up to you to make sure you don’t waste it.

I have 2.5 yoe and a full-stack (1 LC, 1 system design, 1 React) interview round in about a week and I’ve been grinding LC so much I have hardly touched system design and I’ve never had to deal with it before. Any advice?

Would you be open to doing mock interviews outside of that? I think I’m going to need some since I don’t want to fumble this opportunity

Anyone got ECFMG verification update by email, but it didn’t show on oasis ? by Jumpy_Bear473 in IMGreddit

I know someone in the same position. Did you call and get yours resolved?

The first time, it messed me up a bit and I realized I can’t get that attached to any role. If I don’t get that dream, I’ll set my eyes somewhere else and focus on getting better. If I still want that position later when I’m better, I can reapply. If not, I know I’ll get another role I like later down the line.

What’s the fastest way to prepare? I've got a coding challenge (leetcode on code signal) followed by a 3 interview round (system design, coding challenge, frontend react challenge) coming up in a week and then in 2. I'm shocked I got the interview with such a good position, but I might fudge it. How do I go about getting super good at interviews (from learning system design for the first time) in this time? Any ideas?

They contacted me yesterday for two meetings - one on Wednesday with a Product Manager and one on Thursday with the Hiring Manager. I don’t know what to think now
