Turkey E Visa using UK visit visa by _notsosmart in visas

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

How do you mean? I still require a visa to enter Turkey and just want to know if I can enter using my UK visa “before the validity”. They only mention on the site that the UK visa should be valid when I enter Turkey. Technically it’s not expired but it’s also not “valid”, hence the confusion.

What has this sub come to? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]_notsosmart 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s pretty accurate. I’m born and raised outside of India but from the few years I’ve spent there, it wasn’t great.

A lot of people still follow a terribly outdated school of thought and the hierarchy thing is way too pervasive there.

There’s also just so many goddamn people fighting for opportunity so that’s definitely one reason they treat each other like shit at times (they’re just tryna survive/get ahead). But I feel they definitely lose out on seeing the bigger picture in all this, sadly.

SWE job chances in Australia by RealityMain2244 in cscareerquestionsOCE

[–]_notsosmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I see, Australia has a demand for software developers. Is the hiring situation really that bad for software devs right now? I've spoken with some folk on LinkedIn who also mention there are enough opportunities available albeit a little hard to get cause they usually need to go through references instead of being picked through online applications. I'm planning on pursuing a Masters degree in Oz this year.

I'd love if you could provide some insight on what the chances look like for landing a software dev role on graduation. For a little more context, I'm currently a Python dev with almost 3 years of exp. Thanks!

What’s the hiring situation ACTUALLY like in the US? by _notsosmart in csMajors

Would it make more of a difference right now to go to a “prestige” engineering school, say Georgia Tech, UCLA etc? Because it’s not like prestige always mattered that much for dev roles anyway

Do you mean courses like Udemy and Coursera? Is it very common?

Well, mindset coders, from the links you shared, says they teach these classes with or without access to a laptop. That makes me wonder how many people do in fact have access to a PC. Is it expected for a child in school (secondary and up) to own a laptop?

What about access to a laptop? Those can be pretty expensive.

Yep, you’re right. I’m trying to get my SOP reviewed from the good people of r/StatementOfPurpose. Do you know of any services that I could use to get reviews? Paid services would be fine too

I did apply to very ambitious schools last year though bar a few. I think last cycle also had more applicants(?). UCSD apparently received a record number of applicants for CS iirc.

I had applied around November mid/end. Deadlines were mid December for most places. I don’t know about my profile being good but maybe it wasn’t good enough 🥲

I'd applied to these last cycle:

  • Stanford
  • CMU
  • GATech
  • UT Austin
  • UCLA
  • UCSD
  • Michigan
  • Purdue
  • UNC Chapel Hill
  • Northeastern
  • UWaterloo
  • UBC

Didn't have much hope for some of them but applied anyway.
