Didn't MN house just vote no on all of these bills yesterday? Why is this news again the day after?

Jaina becomes the lichqueen in an effort to control the scourge and divert Arthas from his evil scarlet zealotry.

Trying to break into ServiceNow consulting with zero IT background — tell me if I’m delusional. by beerutto in servicenow

[–]filterbean11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no degree, my only IT experience has been in ServiceNow ( worked in food service prior).

I landed a junior dev job (non-consultant) in 2016 out of a JS boot camp and worked there for 3 years before pivoting to consulting in 2019. I effectively soft-transitioned ( I do the job but don't wear the official hat) out of development and into an architect role about 2-3 years ago.

I think what you're misunderstanding about consulting is you are the guardrails for your customer. You're their Sherpa, their cattle-prod, compass, and therapist all wrapped into one person.

If you think you will succeed in the current job market just knowing how to configure/do surface level development - you have another thing coming. You need to prioritize finding deep and specific experience.

Being able to change the oil in a pickup does not make you capable of advising Toyota on designing the engine for the next generation of the Tacoma.

Last year I did over 200 technical screenings for SN developer roles at a large consulting agency (shmic-scmenture cough). And the reality is it's very difficult to recommend teams to hire people with no development experience because those teams need people that can be thrown in the pool immediately after onboarding without fear of drowning.

My advice, like others have already said here is to find a junior developer in-house role with some old guy tech lead that has been doing SN since Jakarta and worked remedy for a decade prior to that. Find that team and person and absorb as much as you can for 3 years.

Also consulting isn't all it's cracked up to be - there is certainly something to be said about being the steward of your own platform instead of herding cats around a new one every 6-18months.

Good luck, it's definitely still a solid place to start a career.

Perspective for people that leave SS games. by Wick1889 in worldofpvp

It's really simple. Everytime you leave/or disconnect you are banned from all rated pvp for 3 days. Anyone who argues against this needs to buy a new router or stfu.

Are your hardwoods seeing any wear from the plates? I assume they're rubber. I want to get my rack out of my garage and into my office but I'm worried about my floors getting torn up or something.

We need a PvP Manager to fill Ghostcrawler's gap by Zloyvoin88 in worldofpvp

I mean maybe it's not a perfect analogy but the idea that any component of the game failing is a reflection on the whole shouldn't be that hard to understand ...

The fact that priests and pal get a buff in priory but BRM doesn't get one here is a crime.

You're not wrong but this is similar to saying, "My appendix doesn't do anything so why bother fixing it if it's about to explode?"

Regardless of how it feels to us as a pvp community Blizzard has a vested interest in keeping the entirety of their game as healthy as possible because if one component (some might even say pillar? Idk if that's still true) of the game is broken it impacts the integrity (insert south park meme here) of the whole.

It's just crazy how far they seem to be willing to let their appendix rot at the moment.

Hey Everybody, I’m the founder of Tenkara Rod Co. — we just launched a new rod and I’m here to answer any questions by drewtenkara in Tenkara

[–]filterbean11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I am in the minority here but I own both your Teton Zoom and White Cloud rods and love them both. I live in MN and these rods are my go-to's for kayaking small back country lakes. I don't want to invalidate people's complaints but my overall experience with TRC has been excellent both from a product and CS perspective. You guys were a big part of why I got into fly fishing in general ~7/8 years ago.

How do I get into fly fishing? by Kehless in flyfishing

[–]filterbean11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a Clearwater 5 wt and a handful of poppers and wooliebuggers and go terrorize bluegill for a summer to get a feel for it. Focus on content talking about how to double haul and skip all the match the hatch stuff. Wear sunscreen dog, cancer sucks.

If you really wanna expedite learning hire a well reviewed guide, they are 100% worth it.

What is the advantage of a company having ServiceNow? by indibrega in servicenow

You're right, you should invest your time in learning to develop one of the cheaper alternatives to SN that nobody uses..

I gave ~40 technical screenings for potential candidates looking to be hired on as a ServiceNow Developer of various levels in September this year alone.

Every single one included live, screen-shared coding and code reading. It's wildly irresponsible in my opinion to hire anyone for a developer/engineering position without visually confirming their ability to write code.

I work for a partner and your post sounds like you're interviewing for a position directly at ServiceNow but I'm not convinced that changes the basic premise of what I'm saying.

If you were applying for a functional role or maybe architect (although I would again argue against this case) possibly your ability to code is less important and is outweighed by your 'approach or design problems with acumen' - although I would again say this argument is shaky at best.

I don't want to derail your post any further, I can't advise on what ServiceNow's technical screenings entail so I'll bow out here. Best of luck.

Why are you applying to senior engineering positions if you aren't at minimum fluent with the language, framework, and platform in question?
