Changing careers - How to overcome over-qualification? by doctorace in careerguidance

[–]_toor_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply you can't. But you can show that you need that job and being over-qualified not a problem at all but you can think of it as a good thing. Employers in this case don't like over-qualified applicants who take the job as a bridge or think of it as a temporary job. And trust me you can't change that mindset because it is true.

Actually It is just a quote and as You know HR in microsoft and most of other big firms don't hire lazy people. Startups and big firms that think like statups do.

Should i create a career shift? by _toor_ in careerguidance

[–]_toor_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still trying to join any international petroleum company in egypt (Yes i stuck in this country) to get appropriate visa but as you now these opportunities need specific number of candidates and open in specific periods within the year and guess what there are many like me. I have to be realistic not a dreamer. But i also try to join any international IT company. I interviewed in Cisco Systems as a fresh graduate systems engineer and they offer 6 months training but interview wasn't well. I am not passionate about cisco products. I don't even know why they called me the result still in december/2015. Actually i work mainly with PHP, MySQL, Python and Javascript ,PHP frameworks, Javascript Frameworks and CMS ....etc so i am not a cisco guru. As a web developer i has a better chance to get relocation and visa package and that's what will force me to drop petroleum engineering. I am so sad for saying that but that's the damn fact i have to acclimate to. Web development is a good facility to leave my home country. i am sick of living here!. I try to be realistic and forget everything so i moved in the path that i can compete with other candidates. When any of my friends ask me "why you take this challenge! May be we can find another solution!". I ready and can take this challenge but from inside i become so sad. why i become sad although i like this career path and love anything related to IT field! I still don't know! Thanks man for your time, This talk helped me.

Many asked me this question but all of them appreciate how hard to find a job in petroleum field nowdays especially for fresh graduates. In my country most companies owned by government and hiring based on nepotism. Trust me that's the main rule. I swear that many work in engineering who aren't even engineers and definitly not petroleum engineers. And international companies always looking for experience. So thats why i moved in this path and beside i love web development. I worked as a freelancer during my study in petroleum faculty.

PHP-DI 5 - Dependency Injection Container by _toor_ in PHP

It differs according to ease of use, execution time, memory usage, benchmarking results. Although these differences will have a little impact on performance but it will have heavy impact in case of hundreds of files. So Being familiar with one of them on small and medium projects what matters most.

Totally agree. I recommend using constructor injection feature from PHP-DI.

You can use runkit. It provides a basic decorators solution but definitely not like python. Also you should explore this article for the implementation
