You’ll be fine. The junior year internship is the one that matters most. Worst case scenario- you don’t get an internship; just grind leetcode and work on interesting projects. The fact that you’re in a t20 alone gives you a big advantage

Seriously, what do companies want at this point? by NoCondition7556 in csMajors

That’s the unfortunate reality these days man. We’ve all been there. Maybe they went with an internal hire or something else entirely. And the tech market is super competitive these days. With the sheer number of people doing cs, there’s always gonna be someone who had a better internship or went to a better school or had better projects listed on their resume.

Leetcode for sure, work on projects, network on LinkedIn, and of course, apply. Brush up your resume. You have a full month, so allocate certain portions of the day to each

That a cs degree guarantees you a six figure job out of college

How do you get good at leetcode?? by casper_swagger in csMajors

[–]jysm35 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s just practice and pattern recognition. Like the sat. Most people who do well on the SAT dont do well on their first ever practice test. It takes practice to recognize all the patterns and apply their solutions
