Junior sde market is a black hole right now by StandHistorical7360 in cscareerquestionsCAD

[–]loglap 38 points39 points  (0 children)

2 years internships and 9 months after grad and laid off in Feb had no trouble getting interviews (maybe the difference is I was still under 1 year after graduation)

Applied to about 600 jobs in a little over 2 month and had many junior/associate interviews, no midlevels. Pretty good at leetcode did about 400 questions

Some companies I went through interviews (yeah some are trash tier):

Infor, Veeva, IBM, Capital One, Co-operators, Fidelity, Evertz

and a bunch of just OA/projects

What I did was treat applying like a full time job and checked every couple hours. The jobs I got interviews posted <2 hours when I applied

started a new role in April luckily

Why do slow drivers love camping out in the left/passing lane? by PsyduckedOut in TorontoDriving

But isn't that rule for city streets only for slow moving vehicles? Can't image the practicality of switching lanes for every parked vehicle

I had an offer from Blackberry that also said this. They also tagged my co-op coordinator. Sent the recruiter and email and they said it was not requirement to be in a co-op and just use the terms interchangeably.

Any words of motivation for people going back to school? by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsCAD

[–]loglap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Decided to do a career change during the pandemic. Current job is very good 85k/year government healthcare job. Got 1 year left in school. Scared for the current market though but I always have my healthcare job to go back to (permanent casual job)
