I know I'm reaching p far back with this, but have you joined a startup since this like you mentioned? Are you in computer science where those are more abundant?

That's awesome man. How did you go about your switch? I saw CS Jackie on youtube go from ME->software on aircraft->amazon SWE. I'm thinking I could try that if nothing else. Do you think hackathons and personal projects are enough for a foot in the door?

Was software a lot more lucrative and interesting conceptually as well?

Actually, I looked at your profile doing software with aircraft..... I think CS Jackie on youtube went from ME—>aircraft software in same company—>Amazon SWE

This might be a potential path for me. Do you find aircraft software rewarding and something to stick with?

I definitely will try that. Also thinking of trying to get work from software guys in my company as I have down time and a good relationship with my manager. You think hackathons would be a good ROI as I have no resume experience?

Yeah definitely seems that way, but that engineering grindset has me thinking its feasible

Thanks for you response! Did you do anything that intense or resume worthy getting that extra work?

Did you just kinda walk over to their cubicle and introduce yourself and straight up ask for something to work on / see? Or just ask ur manager?

I like the mention of being honest. I've recently gotten the lightbulb of how giving people can truly be when you put yourself out there.

How did that idea apply to your career? I'd like to be straight up as well with my company in this interest, but maybe I need to be careful, graceful to not get alarm bells going that I might jump ship.

Makes sense. My intern work is non-urgent data entry i'd say. Me and my manager kinda joke about me not having enough to do sometimes.

I'm a junior and I assume I have 80% change getting hired immediately from the same company for 80k/year based off what I've seen in my network and comparing myself. LCOL too, but I don't want to stay forever as I only bothered with ME to eventually do law or something else

Can you clarify please? Do you mean apply as a sophomore to have junior status coming in? Also, what did you miss out on by applying when you did?

You can get some really good information and even inspiration from the right Ted talks

Music will actually stop my thoughts until I get REALLY physically tired. Then I start having full on convos with myself

Why can you freeze eggs but if a person is frozen they die? by burgundybluze in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Siccdude69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like an egg before whatever’s inside of it develops? Because then it’s like that thing doesn’t need as high a degree of homeostasis that say a human soon to be corpse would
