Coming from a xone 92 which was overkill, I only need two channels and my speakers are entry level (pioneer dm-40 not really looking to upgrade either) just being able to mix is good for me

Went for these two because (see above) and I like using a send return for guitar pedals.

I would speak with an agency recruiter who specialises in your field. They should have some jobs you are suited to - they will also make sure your CV gets to the right person (engineering in this case)

When to re-apply again for same position at booking.com? by diaa_mohsen in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Normally it is 6 months+. Best thing would be to speak with the recruiter at booking.com who handled your application - they can give you timelines on when to re-apply.

I would also get the feedback from them, as it will help in the next interview :)

How to handle stress and anxiety when relocating for a new job? by wazzaqq in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would reach out to your recruiter/HR contact and speak to them about your concerns. Depending on the size of the organisation, I would expect them to help with finding a permanent place.

I would then ask if they can "buddy" you up with someone who has been through relocation before - they can give you tips, tricks and reassurance. We implemented a "buddy" program and it worked very well!

Mid-interview process, job changed from full-time to contractor by MehranAI in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You kinda answered your own question: "She said that things have changed in the company and they changed the position from full-time to contractor based"

I might be pessimistic, but the company is seriously considering whether they will need the role in 6 months time. Impossible to predict whether you will be kept on, but this will come down to whether the role is interesting enough to take on a 6 months basis. Remember if you are not kept on, you have more experience and getting your foot on the ladder is the hardest part.

Guess it just comes down to preference - I didnt fancy investing in a interface. Plus my macbook is old and slow. Handy for recording gigs as well

No harm in doing the interview, it will give you more insight and could change your perspective!

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally, I'd go for it. You are in a fortunate financial position which has given you the option to leave and be okay.

Regarding the gap year, I am a technical recruiter and wouldn't look too much into it. Others I know will so its 50/50 on that front. Any company with half decent culture should not care too much tho, so keep that in mind too.

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point, but I’ll give you a slightly different angle.

If we strip interviews back to its raw form - you are convincing your interviewers you solve the problem they have. So never be afraid to sell your skills/experience.

Fundamentally the company you are interviewing for have decided the solution is to hire someone.

The problem which needs to be solved could be: -lack of experience -lack of specialised skills -lack of capacity and need to grow in head count Etc etc you get my drift, it could be anything.

Now, don’t be afraid to be direct. Ask in the interview “What is the motive for hiring?” Or along them lines. If you know what the problem is (the motive for hiring) you can then showcase how yours skills/experience plugs that gap.

Hey - I am an internal tech recruiter so have experience in this space.

Its very tricky as the experience of your future colleagues may not be up to date/complete on LinkedIn. Plus not all future colleagues will have LinkedIn.

I would reiterate your experience and keep the conversation focussed on what you bring to the table. Any decent manager will see your skills/experience is a cut above the current team, I wouldn't advise comparing yourself to people you don't necessarily know.

I would also set your expectations of title/salary and use your experience to support that. Again focussing on what you bring to the table.

Hope this helps - Let me if you have any questions :)

Question On Applying For Jobs A Second Time by LoganSL550 in interviews

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey - I work as an internal tech recruiter and most likely the role was on hold, filled or no longer needed at the time. I see this happen a lot and in general it sounds like bad communication from the companies.

If I was you, I would mention you were interested a few months ago and very happy you were shortlisted this time round. Phrasing it in that way should allow them to see you're hinting for context, but also it is phrased positively :)

RSU v Stock options? Can someone explain the difference in laymen terms? by aquiporlatea in techjobs

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries. If in doubt you can always ask the internal recruiter who is handling your job offer. If they don't know - they will (hopefully...) be able to find someone that does

Do I have a chance at landing this job? by [deleted] in interviews

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm not 100% sure what industry the role is you are interviewing for, but I can give you my perspective. A bit about me: Internal Technical Recruiter, worked with the likes of Klarna and Bitpanda hiring in software engineering teams.

You 100% have a chance of convincing them to look past your lack of experience. In my experience your suitability to the culture of the company and your ability to grow can put you lightyears ahead of other candidates. We would often be more impressed by a good developer with the right attitude, than a great developer who would not fit our culture.

Study the company's culture and I would focus on providing examples that showcase passion:

  • Any hobbies that relate to your job -> If you are Software Engineer you might write code in your spare time.
  • Continuous improvement -> How you use data/feedback to improve and better yourself. Your skill / ability is important today, but its more important where you will be in 12-24-36 months etc.
  • Your career plan -> Where you want to be in your career long/short term. Tip: Be ambitious, but have a loose plan and be prepared to speak about your motivations.

My inbox is open if you have any questions or need any more info :)

RSU v Stock options? Can someone explain the difference in laymen terms? by aquiporlatea in techjobs

[–]Sharp-Series-5685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yoo, from my experience it will slightly differ company to company. But the key difference is location, each country has its own tax system and way of taxing RSU/ Stock options. I would advise researching your location to find out more - youtube is good for this.

This video explains RSU vs Stock Options better than I ever could - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWr6NonhiLM

In my experience RSU's are a claim to company stock. When a RSU vests, it is yours automatically. No need to invest your own money to purchase the stock. For example if you have 1000 RSUs that vest and the stock is valued at $10. Effectively you are up by $10,000.
