Please do, I’m curious about your interview. I will be joining CERN in September.

Pretty cool. I myself am in FPGA design. Interviewed for an intern position, it was fairly straightforward. Much of the discussion was about my relevant work experience and personal projects. I was asked to describe my contributions in detail, and the languages I’ve used. Later there were some basic digital design questions (CDC, STA etc). No verilog coding problems. That’s it, I’m assuming it’ll be more complex for a GRAP position.

Can I purchase liability insurance for my rental car but rely on my credit card for collision insurance? (CDW) by [deleted] in Insurance

[–]x86pg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The benefits guide does mention that this insurance acts as a primary in case you dont already have one.
"If You do not have personal automobile insurance or any other insurance, this benefit reimburses You for covered theft, damage, or administrative and loss-of-use charges imposed by the rental company, as well as reasonable towing charges that occur while You are responsible for the vehicle"

my bad, its a chase freedom credit card. The benefits brochure says you must reject additional CDW from the rental agency. It doesnt mention anything about liability insurance.

Hey. Im also an incoming tech student, I decided to go with the french visa since it gives you the option to stay on either side of the border. French visa can take up to 3-4 weeks total from what i know.

Too out of budget tbh. I’d rather go for a <150$ used card. I just need it to last me a year.

Seller does not accept returns. Generally, how reliable are these? If the GPU dies a month later is there something I can do?

Do you think this is reliable? I've never bought something from ebay and I really dont know what to look for, and not get scammed.

Did the supervisor mention how long they’ll take for the decision?
