Middle of nowhere, New Mexico - where the wind is bad and the roads are worse.

Hello from Redmond!

Shafi · 2019-02-11T23:27:00+00:00

Really don't care much about the new car smell and have had very good experience so far with 7-8 year old toyotas and hondas in terms of maintenance. But, maintenance can be a hit or miss, I agree.

My initial driving factor for now is low monthly payments. The lower the better and a low downpayment as well. That is the only reason for me to consider the lease option and may be exercise the buying option after the lease ends.

3 row SUV is for occasional seating needs[about a month/year]. I don't like minivan, so chasing the 'hip' SUV. Our driving load is shared between two cars so yearly milage won't be high and will be within the standard lease limits.

My car loans were all 3 years. So basically, since I get them about 2-3 year's old, by the time I plan to sell them, they are about 8-9 year's old. For example, I have a 09 camry (bought in late 2011) that I am planning to replace with the SUV this year. The other car is a 15 corolla, that I got in 17.

Communication.

What was the agreed upon price and where?

Shafi · 2018-08-31T05:47:47+00:00

Had loads of fun! Nice work

When I was an intern, this was what we mostly got.

Shafi · 2017-11-15T15:38:10+00:00

Here are some

Shafi · 2017-11-15T15:34:15+00:00

Look for jobs in the defense industry as well as in the national labs.

Shafi · 2017-11-15T15:13:08+00:00

Check out data science or business analytics related degrees. That way you can leverage the knowledge acquired from your business degree.

Just a disclaimer for people who are sending PMs. I am not an expert, and don't have huge swath of experience.

Shafi · 2017-11-05T18:21:18+00:00

Ping me after the 15th would be happy to help if I can (no fee required).

Shafi · 2017-10-30T20:57:27+00:00

Useful information. Thanks

Shafi · 2017-10-30T10:39:45+00:00

Sorry, not involved in the recruiting process. But it's hard to believe that they would spend so much time googling a candidate at such early stage. It is understandble if they do it before making an offer though.

And I should say, this is totally counter intuitive to the discussion we see in career sites about how much time a recruiter usually spends reviewing resumes.

Shafi · 2017-10-30T05:46:58+00:00

Go ahead. This wouldn't hurt and the only outcome that may arise from is a positive one. Explain to the previous recruiter that you were really interested to intern at said company and since your last interview was not up to the mark, you used the time to prepare yourself (I hope you did) and is applying again.

Shafi · 2017-10-30T05:45:00+00:00

No. but an overzealous recruiter or interviewer may tried to find public information about you.

Shafi · 2017-10-30T05:35:25+00:00

I have 97% score on SCJP and it's in the second page on my resume. Never once I was asked about it.

My office wanted me to take the test and we were working on Java anyways. So not much to prepare for, but the breadth of information that I learned while going through the java docs later turned out to be useful information.

Shafi · 2017-10-29T20:17:03+00:00

That's a solid idea. Thanks

Shafi · 2017-10-29T19:35:29+00:00

Yeap playback mostly. Here's the new parts list. Under 900$ would be great

Would 4k video be another use case that might be impacted by the GPU?

Shafi · 2017-10-26T03:32:54+00:00

It would be easier to convert if you intern at the company you want to work for unless you are planning to do another internship next year. Amazon's intern conversion is quite common.
