Barclays has the most awful job application

man slow af and buggy af

[grizzled bronze]

that's why you might have a chance

[tardy geode]

yea

[slender axle]

So guys if you did internships in the past, is it normal for big codebases to have shitty functions 8 if statments inside each other?

or is that just me

[polar grail]

https://tenor.com/view/colors-toho-animation-anime-motohiro-gif-12676597543115537139

Who said you cant be one

[marble ivy]

seems pretty common if ur internship was at a bank or insurance

haven’t seen anything like that in tech

i remember id do prs and ppl would start talking about time complexity bigO stuff in my comments and recommending more efficient ways to do my code

[worthy aspen]

does anyone who apply for the ibm role get an OA?

[unreal rampart]

Ya

[worthy aspen]

how does it progress from there

is the OA difficult?

[unreal rampart]

Just cheat tbh

Mine was hard

[worthy aspen]

how much time do they give you

[tardy geode]

dude that july august mid surge was hard

after that its all reposted bs

[swift falcon]

wracking my brain to remember this surge

[tardy geode]

like fr it was hopeful

[swift falcon]

https://tenor.com/view/memory-no-memory-where-am-i-memories-harry-potter-gif-5385535

they should make a reposted filter tbh

[solemn spire]

[swift falcon]

ffs i deserve to be jobless at this point i sent out the wrong date in a response email

[tardy geode]

i am hoping but

[tardy geode]

i leave it

its annoying AF

SF workday apps are good they mark even WorkEx section filling as optional

god bless greenhouse and lever ,

i have been applying like so crazy that sometimes if i see a reposted job , i already know that i had applied to this

[swift falcon]

All recruiting firms need to disappear as well

[tardy geode]

i don;t have a prob with them

BUT

remove that reposted shit

[swift falcon]

they clog up/inflate the numbers

[tardy geode]

also promoted + reposted = Trigger

ik

😭

[swift falcon]

like I know they're posting for jobs I've seen already

[neon perch]

Ugh

Every day the anxiety peaks

[tardy geode]

i wakeup and sleep with anxiety

[swift falcon]

i'm so tired of powerbi I just want to code

every day at my dead-end job is torture

[tardy geode]

at this point i am willing to do power bi too

[swift falcon]

I dont' get to do any of the fun data wrangling

[tardy geode]

first of all nuke leetcode man , shit is annoying af and unecessary

[swift falcon]

I need to get on a daily schedule maybe

i just sit here all day raging and procrastnating and nothing ever gets better

I just have 0 motivation

[solemn spire]

Me and the gang waiting for referral

[swift falcon]

i miss actually enjoying life

[vapid oasis]

Damn I got rejected from Pinterest

For mobile

Idk what they want tbh

[pliant arrow]

oh great i can look forward to that rejection

[vapid oasis]

I wish I could ask recruiters what I was missing

They just ghost u

Why these mfs want 2 y.o.e+ for NG

[swift falcon]

they expect you to have a job during university probably

[slender axle]

they want cheap h1b workers who did 2 years swe in india, did masters degree in usa, and will work like a L4 for L3 pay because they need the visa sponsorship

they're a startup with little money so there is no way they can afford real new grads (i.e. just out of undergrad)

also note I'm not saying anything bad about Indian software engineers, it is american companies that take advantage of their need for a visa

and pay them less

[swift falcon]

damn that is fucked up

[obsidian crater]

h1b people aren't generally cheap labor

h1b people have to be paid >= median wage for that profession in that area

https://h1bdata.info/topjobs.php

[slender axle]

Since they're a startup they have no money. But also since they're a startup, they need only high level workers. If they spend 2 years training 10 new grads, that is $3 million dollars spent. They just raised $30 million so they would be spending 10% of their cash on new grads

[slender axle]

That is changing when the job market has declined

[obsidian crater]

I mean even to file an H1B

You have to get a lawyer and prove you're paying above median wage

Ain't no way a startup is going to afford all that

[slender axle]

low pay for a software engineer is well above median wage

[obsidian crater]

It's like 10K to file an h1b

[obsidian crater]

It has to be >= median wage for that profession in that area

I know there are h1b scams and stuff though for real

Like consultancies and etc

This fact sheet provides general information concerning the payment of wages for an H-1B worker under the H-1B program.

The H-1B employer must pay its H-1B worker(s) at least the “required” wage which is the higher of the prevailing wage or the employer’s actual wage (in-house wage) for similarly employed workers.

https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/62g-h1b-required-wage

[slender axle]

If the job title is Level 1 Software Engineer, and they pay them $125,000, they will be paying above average. But by requring 2 years experince, they are expecting Level 2 Software Engineer work

[obsidian crater]

ok and?

[slender axle]

They can get around it

[obsidian crater]

true

I know it's very scummy

h1b is very sus

[slender axle]

So they are paying "above average for L1" while actually getting "underpaid for L2"

[obsidian crater]

idk about that

125k is very reasonable for mid level

[ornate cliff]

replace all h1b employees with TN employees 🙂

[obsidian crater]

only faang/big tech would pay more than 125k for mid level

[slender axle]

that's the top of their range too

100k is bottom end

and it is in san fransisco

I know people making 130k base in the midwest for l1

[pine topaz]

I eat Kobe with BBQ sauce and ketchup

[obsidian crater]

yeah and I know people making 500k for l1 in NYC

hachiyuki

[neon perch]

God damn

[obsidian crater]

I mean she went to CMU and works at HRT as algo dev

So ....

She is intl and will probably get h1b

[swift falcon]

ay bro I just looked at her site and job hunt advice blog

i'm fuckin stealin these

the technical challenge one is gold

i'm gonna fuckin ask that one if I ever get an interview with technical ppl

imagine asking that and then they say their whole spiel and then you're like sitting there with a blank face not knowing what to say afterwards

"ok cool" 😐

[vital meteor]

I always ask the first one

It's a goated question

[swift falcon]

how is it usually received?

[ornate cliff]

99% of the time it's "i wish we had less on call"

[swift falcon]

"We don't get paid enough"

[neon perch]

996

[fossil jewel]

idk for me it’s received well

“i get to work with a lot of smart engineers everyday”

[swift falcon]

and the "improved" part?

[fossil jewel]

that part i didn’t ask but will start asking that now

[tardy geode]

bruh GHC wilding on Linkedin

this guy

[swift falcon]

https://hachiyuki8.github.io/tech/job-hunt-advice from here

I suppose if they vetted each person visually etc. they'd get slammed for discrimination at some point

[ornate cliff]

it's the white socks for me

[gleaming trellis]

Thanks bro!

[swift falcon]

no you won't

@chilly burrow

[narrow harbor]

i am interested pick me pls

[tardy geode]

bro do you sponsor ?

ok so the US government is gonna shutdown on 30th september .

Why tho ?

Also when would it be back up ?

but whats the reason for shut down ?

[fallen fox]

pto

[swift falcon]

buncha fuckin clowns

[slender axle]

getting a cs degree 🙂
working as a software engineer 😦

[slender axle]

I also like how workday doesn't differentiate between information systems and computer science. IS kids could easily fake their way in and not technically be lying if they can pass a few leetcode questions

[obsidian crater]

IS kids won't pass system design ever

[smoky portal]

Hey has anyone applied for JP Morgan Feb 2024 start Software Engineer? If so, after completing the hackerrank, did y’all hear anything back about an interview? How long have yall been waiting to hear back?

[swift falcon]

I have a degree in computer and information science, they literally changed it the semester I was going to graduate and I missed the cutoff to keep it “computing”

it’s stupid because the PhD program is CS

and it’s all the same classes

[slender axle]

nothing heard back

I passed it in literally 15 mins

so idk

If I see "only accepting grad date may 2024" one more time I'm gonna scream

do they expect to leave an entire year's worth of kids out of the job market?

like what is going on here

[smoky portal]

Dude I’m on the same boat

What do they expect us to do! Most “entry level” jobs are asking for 2+ years of job experience. Like WTF

[slender axle]

I really want to do the apple rotational program but I feel like I'm gonna be auto rejected

c'est la vie

[past hound]

All you can do is apply

[slender axle]

yeah I will

but still its demotivating

[smoky portal]

Literally graduated at the worst time

[obsidian crater]

yeah

[ornate cliff]

what is the rotational program

[slender axle]

you work on a different team every 8 months, wallet, maps, app store, apple music

in nyc

then you pick which one you want to stay with

almost all roles I see open are san fran or seattle

I want nyc so bad

• apple makes it so desirable

[ornate cliff]

WTF.... that's sounds amazing

How do you even get that position loooool

[slender axle]

you need 3.5 gpa and grad date in 2024

[ornate cliff]

gg

[slender axle]

I have ios experience, 3.6 gpa... 2023 grad date

i cry

[smoky portal]

But their interview process is prolly really hard

[obsidian crater]

rope

[slender axle]

i've done all blind 75

i can do it

literally its just getting the chance

my brain is massive

but my opportunities are small

lol

[tardy geode]

???

I have done all B75 and out of NC 150 i have done around 120ish

can't do anymore man , i fucking hate this shit

[obsidian crater]

leetcode isn't really that important after entry level

[smoky portal]

Yeah I need to start doing b75 again

[whole roost]

dont you still need to do LC if you want to break into big tech later

[tardy geode]

well entry level is some 2020 shit

[slender axle]

entry level does not exist anymore

[whole roost]

I get it's weighted less cuz there's sys design too but still

[tardy geode]

there is nothing like entry level since Q3 2022

[slender axle]

now it is big mode only

[slender axle]

ALSO IF WE DON'T GET JOBS AS SWE'S NOW HOW WILL WE LEARN SYSTEM DESIGN

AHHHH

[tardy geode]

well

you can learn by reading

[whole roost]

I try not to actively think about that lol, just gotta take it one day at a time

[tardy geode]

the more you read

the more you get better at sys design

atleast the thought process

[slender axle]

yeah but imagine if instead of doing that I got paid $200k + apple corporate housing in manhattan

for the rotational program

that i know I could get into

[tardy geode]

apple gives corp housing ?

[slender axle]

If i literally decided to graduate... later

[slender axle]

yeah

[tardy geode]

also what is rotational program

[slender axle]

for the rotational program they pay for you to live in manhattan for 2 years

🥴

[tardy geode]

DAMN 2 years that too off rent

sick

[obsidian crater]

rope

[tardy geode]

whats dei ?

i only know DUI

[obsidian crater]

how do we tell him

[slender axle]

does bisexual count or nah

[whole roost]

D(eeznuts) Enterprise Incorporated

[tardy geode]

oh i see ,this is something new i learned today

[tardy geode]

even they require 5+ YOE

[obsidian crater]

nah

I am CEO of DN

We just require 5+ YOE in internet trolling

Not SWE

[slender axle]

its 125k cash + 25k stock + 75k bonus. I know cause my friend at Columbia university just accepted the offer

• housing

[tardy geode]

omfg

125k cash with housing

[obsidian crater]

We subpoena IETF to check your history

[slender axle]

she's 2024 tho

uhhh ok or she called her best friend crying tears of happiness and I believe her

so

up to you i guess

[obsidian crater]

none of us are getting in there

so stop coping

study go

Go is the new Java

[slender axle]

top 20 cs, 3.6 gpa, ios experience, etc

I can

do it

[obsidian crater]

not 2024

[slender axle]

just let me interview

pls

i beg

[tardy geode]

bruh what makes you think that

[slender axle]

maybe i can go to community college and finish an A.S. degree by next year to technically count

lol

[ornate cliff]

Go is the new Java

[obsidian crater]

Dr. Crud said so and I blindly believe everything he says

He is my life advisor

[whole roost]

Go is the new java

[tardy geode]

if i was i a citizen i would take up some temporary job , earn monies until market gets better

[ornate cliff]

new String s = StringFactory(StringBuilder(another_string)).toString()

[obsidian crater]

I got a referral

Hopefully it works out boys

[tardy geode]

even if you learn they need exp in Go

[ornate cliff]

gl champ

[obsidian crater]

(Not to a company)

[tardy geode]

from where would you bring that exp ?

[slender axle]

except it looks so bad if you graduate and have a gap on resume. like why did you work at taco bell? must not be smart enough then

[obsidian crater]

To a research lab where I will be developing math models and coding them for a professor

[slender axle]

and then they will be requiring 2026 grad date or whatever

[obsidian crater]

Got a referral from Duke PhD prof so

[tardy geode]

wait . are you from Duke ?

[obsidian crater]

no

[pseudo wagon]

is golang worth it to learn? i hear so many conflicting information

[obsidian crater]

not rich enough for Ivy

[tardy geode]

then how can you get a referral and for what did you get a referral?

you applying for a Phd ?

[obsidian crater]

I work at a company run by Duke PhD guy

Who knows this professor

[tardy geode]

man refer me

[obsidian crater]

[tardy geode]

i mean atleast to stop my clock and learn something

[obsidian crater]

I'll probably get rejected lol

This guy has a PhD from Cornell

I'm too mediocre for him

[slender axle]

how did you just randomly email him and be like, yo, refer me?

[obsidian crater]

He called me to tell me that he's referring me

Called me at 12pm lmao

[tardy geode]

even if you learn GO , companies want experience in go

[ornate cliff]

make a project

[obsidian crater]

Imagine being me

[tardy geode]

in this market just putting Go in your skills section of your resume or in the projects section won't get you picked up

[obsidian crater]

I'm about to enter the bathroom to take a shit

Halfway as I take my clothes off my boss calls me to tell me about this

[sturdy crane]

If you applied for any location besides Plano and I think one more smaller region then you aren’t going to get a response, those locations are full. A recruiter gave me a link to resubmit my New York application and change it to Plano. Didn’t have to take Hackerrank over but I got a reject like the next day

[slender axle]

get online job and take the classes during meetings

[ornate cliff]

you said your gpa was bad so I was just providing appropriate resources 🙂

[obsidian crater]

roasted him

sheesh

if you have < 3.0 rough though

[vague slate]

how do we feel about rotational programs

[slender axle]

also apple and meta employees often get stanford online masters through the company so i dont think it could be that bad

[obsidian crater]

different case

they are employees doing a side degree

It's good if you have a job

[ornate cliff]

masters is cope

[slender axle]

ok so work at mcdonalds then do the degree

[ornate cliff]

just LC

[slender axle]

or olive garden

[smoky portal]

I applied for Wilmington, Delaware. And no one reached out to me to change my location

[obsidian crater]

you need experience

nothing makes up for experience

[sturdy crane]

As of sep 14 Plano, Wilmington, and Columbus were open. I would reach out to a recruiter to ask for the status of your application. I didn’t get reached out to by anyone either I had to message a recruiter cause I was wondering what was going on

[smoky portal]

Ok thanks I will do that!

[swift falcon]

I’m going back for my associates 😎

[tardy geode]

i mean

why is everyone's dream faang

lol

you're still gonna be a slave to the corp and grind

[slender axle]

Already received a reject letter from apple after 4 hours

Dreams crushed speedrun

No nyc rotational

[sturdy crane]

Anyone heard back from Okta after taking New Grad OA?

[slender axle]

Somehow never received the oa despite getting harder ones

I think it’s maxed fast because remote

[fossil jewel]

i mean fair

but ngl basing my life dreams on one entity of companies isn’t my thing

honestly the less studying i did and more i focused on social life, the happier i was

happiness diff for all of us

[swift falcon]

don't you have a dream company though?

like one where it's like, fuck I need to work there

[vital meteor]

Valve or riot games

[fossil jewel]

nah i’m happy with working some place with decent TC, interesting product and good WLB

i wouldn’t mind exploring a round a bit and going for the prestige companies

but i wouldn’t sacrifice my mental health for. it

[swift falcon]

I have one that I don't think I'll ever be satisfied until I work there

I got rejected from it for a contract role for IT support way back in 2017, and I feel like the sad orphan looking in through the window at the family eating dinner

I thought getting an MS would really help and kind of be the easy way but it's like I'm not any closer lol

[wet jacinth]

Companies don't have loyalty towards us, and we shouldn't have any loyalty towards them. Go to whoever offers more money. We've seen them ruthlessly lay off 1000s, we of all should know this more than anyone.

Well, they should be the change they want to see.

[rain patio]

We wouldn't hop if companies gave big performance based raises

[wet jacinth]

yeah!

[swift falcon]

idk man

unless I was seriously abused by this company

I'd probably try to get rehired if I got laid off lol

but even so, if I got laid off, it would have been working for that company

[wet jacinth]

Do all that for yourself, not because of loyalty towards the company. Jump ship when something better comes, because when they hurt financially, they wouldn't care about you either.

[swift falcon]

yeah, maybe I should explain it more as, it's a competitive company so it'd be an accomplishment, but I'm also very curious about the work culture and the perks and want to walk around in fancy corporate setting etc. - it just seems like an adventure that I'm missing out on rn

[fossil jewel]

nah they do that bc they care about profits

back then they used to give pensions

stuff started becoming anti worker

[wet jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/marx-marxism-communism-intesifies-funny-gif-16697750

[obsidian crater]

I mean why would employees stay

They can get laid off any time, no pensions, barely any PTO et al

[obsidian crater]

hi

[fossil jewel]

i mean hey

[hardy cypress]

Assuming you prepared for the interview you should be good, hopefully it isnt one of those 5v1 interviews 💀 had one like that while back

[willow sedge]

its a technical but im just worried they gonna ask a random oop question and im not gonna know it

or a web dev question thats obscure idk

although i found out the place i did a co-op for cut 20% of its IT department this year 💀

[obsidian crater]

overdrive resume rejected me

🪢

[willow sedge]

they did to me too but i met with them at my colleges career fair today lol

[obsidian crater]

You think they gonna turn away some cracked mofo

26 year old dude making bank

not us International Masters, we'll get there at 28

[tardy geode]

this

[wet jacinth]

it's ok, 400k is 400k even if you're 28 when you're making it. Don't be greedy

maybe a little less because of inflation

[bold pier]

250k tc by 30 or bust

[bold pier]

Stop saying this, I will kms

I'm 28

Next target is Bloomberg, I hope they give 250k for 5yoe

In 2 years

Yes

But not in US, that's why it's rope. If I did my undergrad here I'd be 300k rn for sure

[crimson stump]

Hey guys is anyone working in Walmart?

[bold pier]

Finished grad school in USA just now, Emea before this

[obsidian crater]

[crimson stump]

I had a doubt. Can we use AI tools in big companies?

Like chat gpt or bard?

[bold pier]

Wow I stopped looking for jobs for a few weeks and meta started hiring again 😭

[obsidian crater]

ask your boss

wow

[crimson stump]

But searching for AI tools won't be a problem right?

[bold pier]

Nicee, you didn't go through interviews right?

Biggest long term investment return of the decade

[crimson stump]

Do they just disable them or we are not supposed to go to those sites?

[sturdy crane]

wtf so you didnt get a return offer after but might get one now?

[bold pier]

Imma hit you up for referrals once I get my visa in an year or two lol

[sturdy crane]

good shit

[crimson stump]

Umm okay

[sturdy crane]

hopefully that happens to me as well

[bold pier]

Don't wanna risk layoffs without h1b i hand already 💀

[sturdy crane]

interned in 2022 but company had no headcount so no return offer, i reached out to recruiter maybe a month ago and she added my application back into the pipeline for a potential return offer if they get headcount

[tardy geode]

I was , waddup

[tardy geode]

yo what email did you put to them?

[crimson stump]

Hey need some info regarding usage of AI tools

[tardy geode]

you are in Bentonville?

[crimson stump]

No

[rain patio]

Did he get banned

[tardy geode]

well everything is monitored on the vpn , and i reckon walmart has its own bot or something using the chatgpt api

[crimson stump]

We can use the AI tools for reference right?

[rain patio]

Ask your manager, it varies from company to company

[tardy geode]

just don’t put any proprietary code in it ; otherwise you would be in trouble

also please refer me

ffs i am a former intern and i am getting rejected and shit by them and i see folks from outside getting hired man it hurts so fking bad

[crimson stump]

I'm on contract bro lol

I don't think they are hiring many candidates for full time

[sturdy crane]

i asked her if i could return and she said theres no headcount currently but she will keep my application for returning in early next year

My gf slots were filled sadly

[tardy geode]

Veeva just called me to reject , wtf this is the second time 💀

[grizzled bronze]

yo that's not fair, I haven't gotten a call or rejection yet

[tardy geode]

dude this same shit happened last month too

[tall cedar]

I recently did an interview and I just looked back and realized one of my questions that I solved was wrong with a small mistake but the idea was correct and my interviewer asked me another question after that does that mean they didn't realize it or could they just not have mentioned it?

[fossil jewel]

could be either

could be that they saw it but it wasnt cared more about concept/understanding

[tall cedar]

Gotcha I'm definitely panicking now lol I was so confident up until just now I realized I solved it partially wrong

[solemn spire]

Im just wasting time

Fuck am I doing with my life man

[tall cedar]

they literally just got back to me and I made it to the next round!

[fossil jewel]

[bold furnace]

Where is this if you don’t mind sharing

[vague slate]

2023 grads are so back

[rain patio]

I feel so sad for everyone in CS who is still looking for a job, and not in a demeaning way. It just sucks so much for everyone 😭

I remember when I was doing my group exit interview in college, and the CS professor who was doing the interview asked us if we had jobs lined up, and none of us did lol

This was a couple weeks before graduating

[tardy geode]

[tardy geode]

LFGOOOO

@swift falcon

like in my older kb

is this normal?

well the feeling is amazing tho , should have gone for a mech kb long ago

[tardy geode]

i don't even mention my GPA on the resume unless its a new grad position

[tardy geode]

i have lost trust in NG positions

as an international

i think its soon time to rope

[vague slate]

still haven't had my interview yet

[serene pivot]

Im in the same boat. at this point im just saying that I wont be needing help in the future to maintain sponsorship or whatever and deal with the consequences once I get an offer

[tardy geode]

has zuck passed a memo or some shit to publicize that they are hiring

i see so many meta engineers posting we are hiring we are hiring thing

and also like at this point it seems like shit post just to boost the stock and fr are they even hiring ?

[rain patio]

waz

[tardy geode]

wtf costco rejected me smh

like the entire job description matched my resume

ffs

FUCK THIS MARKET

sofi ng also reject wtf

[vapid oasis]

I’ve lost hope as a citizen for ng positions

[tardy geode]

i wouldn't be worried tbh if i were a citizen

nor lose hope since there would be no time constraint

[vapid oasis]

There is a time constraint. After a year you’re considered expired goods. Obviously you have it rougher than me because you are on a timer

[tardy geode]

stay with parents

why would you be homeless

i would be maybe since i am non US

[obsidian crater]

I've been seeing LI posts about Meta hiring

But it's mostly E4

yes

[obsidian crater]

ropecito

[tardy geode]

i mean I didn't mean that way

[tardy geode]

I have shit ton of connections from my home country whose activity(likes reposts etc) I don't want to see in my feed SO should i remove them from my connections or just unfollowing them would help ?

[ornate cliff]

remove

[limber gulch]

but how

[cloud zinc]

Are you referring to linkedin feed?

[native mango]

did someone get Samsara OA?

[tardy geode]

yeah

[split igloo]

well linkedin is cringe fest

[cloud zinc]

who uses linkedin feeds unironically tho?

I feel like it is a useless feature outside of trying to mimic facebook/tiktok/etc

Outside of user-posted job postings, the feed is nothing but influencer garbage

[vapid oasis]

Agreed

[tardy geode]

Let's say if anyone of y'all has a Java Dev Interview coming up so do you guys like mug up the top interview questions ?(like you know concepts etc)

[slender axle]

I GOT 600 GCA!!!

Ok does anyone know if there is a way to resubmit a new score to a company you took the GCA with before?

I got 500 on the capital one GCA, 600 on the ziprecruiter GCA, wondering if I can submit it back to the first one

[hardy relic]

unfortunately not possible. if u take a gca with a company as opposed to sending a previous score, they will use the score u achieved on that assessment

[tardy geode]

https://tenor.com/view/rakeitoop-rokeitup-dj-khaled-surf-gif-21792750

omw from GHC i got lost and now i reached colombia

btw is the govt shutdown for like 30 fking days ?

[slender axle]

anyone know what the difference is between migrated GCA?

and normal?

[rain patio]

looks like the hours passed a bill to keep the government open

fr it's so dumb that they can shut down the government

why do republicans vote for government shutdowns all the time

bros don't wanna work or something?

[obsidian crater]

yes

[rain patio]

politicians already get way more vacation days than most people smh

[obsidian crater]

they get more money too

from insider trading

[rain patio]

lol true

[brittle pond]

pretty sure its just like u used a previous score?

from a different company's prescreen

[slender axle]

I took CapOne last week, got 500. Took ZipRecruiter now, got 600. I want to submit the new score to the old test

cause they didnt reject me

but like

they might prioritize me with 600

[formal glen]

When getting an OA would it be ok to do it after couple of days or would the company already have enough people doing interview?

[slender axle]

you should do it asap, but also don't do it while tired or unprepared

I put mine off to the weekends

but if you wait to the last day

its not great

[formal glen]

ok thanks

[slender axle]

I JUST LOOKED IN MY SPAM BOX AND STRIPE SENT AN OA LIKE A MONTH AGO ;_;

wtf

I lost

[cloud zinc]

what is it called when you do nothing for several days straight, but then suddenly get a surge of productive urgency/anxiety at one point?

[torpid bloom]

ADHD

[cloud zinc]

I was feeling down because of my interview results and felt tired and lethargic for several days. But after drinking some energy drinks, I suddenly feel anxious enough to resume productivity

[wet jacinth]

Low blood sugar

[cloud zinc]

I'm not medically diagnosed, but I want to determine this low point so it doesn't happen again

[wet jacinth]

You're not eating because of worrying about getting a job leading to low blood sugar.

I Sherlocked this shit

I still ate during that time, but you might be on to something. I remember was eating less than usual.

The reason I'm bringing this up was because I felt this sudden rush during a project standup meeting and finishing my energy drink

I feel awkward about it because I was looking at some documentation and was shaking up for no reason near the end of the meeting
