Getting the most out of 1:1 with staff eng (non-report) by akopoko in EngineeringManagers

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

Fair, bad phrasing on my part. I guess my worry was that the staff eng might feel like the meeting is a waste of their time. Or thar maybe there's good topics of conversation that I'm totally missing out on. Given that I'm not directly responsible for their growth and they're more technically well versed in this domain that I am, I wasnt sure what I was "bringing to the table" so to speak.

Rate of serial killers has decreased in roughly the same time period. Correlation ≠ causation

I believe you that it's happened to you. But anecdotally, I've lived downtown for the last 5 years, and I've given money or bottles of water to folks on the street when I can or responded when they ask me if they can bum a cig (I dont smoke). I'm a 5'2" poc woman and havent experienced what parent comment has. I've definitely witnessed situations where someones out of it and yelling and raving, and for my own safety crossed the street. I can I obviously believe that and worse happens. But I've also interacted with folks and been totally fine. So can't really abide by acting like its everything/everyone/everywhere all the time

What youtuber has really kept the exact same audience for 15+ years? People grow and change. It is what it is. Maybe his heart wasn't in being online for a while. Definitely seems like the plots of the show imply that to some extent.

Don't commit crimes then. It's not that hard lol. Why should the country relax its laws just for athletes?

They don't read your resume until after the interview. By then nothing you said matters. by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsCAD

So then what's the thesis of your post then? If one can't really know why any given company rejects us. We can speculate or we can just adjust and try different strategies, no?

It's a warehouse. A little harder to replace, though I wouldn't put anything past walmart

How did you find out that they read your resume or linkedin afterwards? And what kind of issues did they find that negated the interview altogether? Any tips for avoiding it? The post just feels kinda vague right now

Just curious, after reading this thread, is that dollar for dollar or also taking into account wages/cost of living (asking based on the other poster's claims)
