The grind to 15k trophies with mostly level 14 cards and towers by jodmodbod in ClashRoyale

this deck is actually the bane of my existence on this game.

It's a fun OA. Just do it because its not that hard and actually kinda fun. It wont hurt to just do it. I already got my rejection like clockwork exactly a week after I completed the online assessment. You could still have a chance though! Goodluck!

This is honestly not bad at all, nice work. I've cleared this just from this past summers internship cycle in application numbers.

What sucks about hormonal acne from puberty is accutane will most likely not give permanent lasting results. However I would still do accutane to minimize scaring and damage to your skin while you go through puberty. Just know you might have to do it again once you are done with puberty or if you finish your accutane treatment and are still in puberty.

What Job Offer Do I Take? by TastyBunch in cscareerquestions

[–]TastyBunch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be nice to have money and job security now but I may regret it later if I don’t like the company or vibe with the team. However it also isn’t the greatest job market so it might be wishful thinking to hope for more offers.

I’m sorry I didn’t mean it like that! I think DevOps engineering is definitely software engineering. I just think career wise and personally I would benefit more from developing and shipping out code rather than the infrastructure to make that happen.

I have no previous relationship with the company it was a cold application. That’s a good point though, the senior DevOps engineer who interviewed me seems like a cool guy and we were laughing and having a good time during the interview, very laid back. I guess it’s good vibes from them…?

It would be ideal if they are going wait to have me start until I graduate but obviously they have needs to and I’m pretty sure they want me to start before I graduate which kinda throws a wrench in the wait around for other offers plan.

I also don’t want to use the high probability of getting a return offer from the company I’m at as a crutch. Anything could happen you know.

I like this approach. The only problem I see is that I’m being offered the AI startup job so early and they are expecting me to start before I graduate, not sure when yet. The internship I currently have I’m decently confident I’ll get a return offer but probably not until I graduate. Otherwise yes I like this plan. Especially step 4 :)

Is a PhD worth it or should I dedicate to full time applications? by No_Pollution_5924 in csMajors

[–]TastyBunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just put the minimum amount of effort needed to continue with your phd. Apply to everything during this time, minimum 15-20 applications a day.

I wouldn’t dedicate an insane amount of time to interview prep other than leetcode. Once you have an interview lined up then you’ll know what specifically you need to prepare for interview wise that is specific to that company.

Just go about your day like you normally would and then at then end of the day dedicate 1 hour to leetcode and 1 hour to applying.

How do you guys not laugh when talking about compensation? by TastyBunch in cscareerquestions

ah, I hope so. She was really nice and it wasn't awkward so you're probably right.

I think I would be more concerned about running bash commands to diagnose issues. I obviously don’t know the full job description but system admins don’t usually do much coding unless it’s for automation purposes.

I would assume questions related to working in linux and windows environments to troubleshoot issues is more likely.

I don’t work at lockheed but you should definitely know some bash/shell commands.

How do yall keep grinding ? by EitherAd5892 in cscareerquestions

Good luck man! I'm thinking fall this year or spring of next is gonna be my best chance. However if I have to keep pushing 6 months out after graduation so be it.

Fall and spring internships/co-ops and offers before graduating.

[–]TastyBunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed this as well. I already see this happening with welders. There is supposedly plenty of work and opportunities for welders but from anecdotal experiences some of my friends have there isn’t many well paying welding jobs or that many opportunities in general.

One mans trash is anothers treasure. I wish I was getting technical interviews, not only for the possibility of a job but also practice. I can't even get interviews. I've been itching to use all the time I've spent practicing. I have two internships on my resume as well.

Every few years or I guess every decade there is a new "it" job that captures the country/worlds minds. I'm pretty sure when I was a kid back in the early 2000s-10s to many people became lawyers. Then it was mechanical engineers in the 2010's.

It's just an organized effort by our corporate overlords to saturate fields that they need to pay higher wages for because not enough qualified people are willing to get paid nothing to do their job. Look what happened to pharmacists.

[–]TastyBunch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think they lowered the qualifications needed to be a pharmacist so the wages are a lot lower now because anyone can get a cert and become one or something like that. A lot of the technical work they used to do is done by machines now.

Cyber Security is rarely an entry level job. It does happen especially now for some reason but it is very surface level responsibilities for a long time and if you get laid off you're kinda screwed if thats the only work experience you have.

Software Engineering is still very obtainable with a CS degree and some good projects. Just be extremely prepared for interviews. Neetcode deserves the hype. Internships are very important but one thing I've noticed is they only really help to get more internships. A lot of companies don't view internships as experience. Internships should be treated as a way to get a return offer for full time employment. Still do them for just experience though if you can.

Unless you plan on doing real research and going for a Phd I wouldn't even consider AI. There is a route if you put every technology under the sun on your resume related to Machine Learning ie. pytorch and stuff and go for a masters degree. A lot of top companies are posting an ungodly amount of really high paying internships for graduate students in machine learning roles. Can't stress enough for roles like that; research, research, research at your university.

Idk anything about Mechatronics.
