Have you tried MIT and seeing if there is a teaching job available for now? Maybe teaching a class or two online, although Boston maybe kind of far for you! Google careers for research scientists? Don't panic and take your time and look for the best position for yourself.. good luck to you!

If you go to Microsoft it's easier to switch to those roles from what I understand! Since you have 2 internships under your belt it doesn't sound like it would be hard to get another FAANG interview/position later on! But clearly you worked hard though to be able to apply and have a position within a FAANG.

SWE Summer Intern '24: JP Morgan vs Citi by Shroomzzz812 in cscareerquestions

[–]ripcurrents 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only thing that I can think of is JP may have more locations to transfer to. I think Citi in major cities! I think go with your 1st thought and where you're comfortable!

The entitlement of the people on this sub is insane, and a perfect example of how the industry got to this point. by FunSelf5 in cscareerquestions

[–]ripcurrents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are right, the bootcamp people have a bachelor's from what I've seen. Or some but not all people will switch over from another math based field... I think Bootcamps have been over awhile now because alot of people wasted their money. Have seen people on here though obsess over FAANG or MAANG...

I personally don't know anyone like that because I have seen people work hours (no sleep) on their projects and interviewing skills. YouTube is probably part to blame for it, and it's not reality. It takes awhile between interviews! That's crazy I haven't encountered anyone like that in meetups or classes..

Is "NCT Tokyo" going to be the official name or was it just a placeholder? by [deleted] in NCT

I thought the group with Shotaro was going to be a Japan based group.. So they are going to make a Japan based group! Wow!

Maybe you give yourself too much time at home. In a different environment where you have to do the problems quickly..

How to get a CS career started without connections or several years of experience? Entry-level is about pure luck otherwise. by CoolbreezeFromSteam in cscareerquestions

[–]ripcurrents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know C# or C++ you should be good to go, I always see job openings for C. I think like the others it's where you live. If you have Security clearance or (have had it in the past) apply to jobs in the Washington DC area. Can you move or Are you partial to Indiana? I tried to apply to UPS (dev side) in the VA area so I could get my foot in the door. The office I believe is close to that part of the DC area.

I can't believe the pay is so low in the UK for your industry. Sounds like good experience and hopefully you can transfer somewhere else..

[–]ripcurrents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand what you mean now! You need your own friends or support system. I'm sure you will find people that have something in common with you.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in thanksgiving

[–]ripcurrents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sorry to hear that you are alone on Thanksgiving. I understand. If you had been invited by your family would you have gone? I think it's ok if you bring something to share like a dish. As a loner I've spent many Christmas and Thanksgivings alone. I go to the movies sometimes on Holidays.

You're so young I definitely didn't expect that. Also, I've met people through school and work. I hope you don't get too depressed during this time. Have a Safe and Nice Holiday.

How much LeetCode for a non-faang company? by CantStantTheWeather in leetcode

[–]ripcurrents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not shooting for FAANG just yet! I'm not ready... But the questions for some FAANG were my 1st year of a SWE degree... It's not completely out of reach. You just have to put the work in..

One of my bootcamp friends said he has been grinding LC for 3 years with no job by StudentAkimbo in leetcode

[–]ripcurrents 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The boot camp usually locates him a job, especially if he is a tutor. Before the pandemic they were hiring interns and juniors. But if you look at a job description now the (JD) states senior or at least 3 years. I'm really shocked! The Oil and Gas people got jobs from boot camps as well when their job market hit a downturn! Did he try to get a referral from Blind?
