If you read the article

#

It's for consultancy internships, accounting majors.

#

I read that headline on LinkedIn too and was about to go cry/cope... and then read the actual blurb, it's about the big consultancy firms wanting to get to candidates before their competitors.

#

Why

#

Hit the gym!!

rain patio
#

lmao i love how pissy the Starfield developers are

#

like bruh did you really expect your reputation to be good enough that fans ignore the glaring issues in your game?

#

i at least expected something as fun as skyrim...but this has to be one of the worst games i've ever played in years

#

it's like they wasted too much time working on stuff that doesn't even matter

#

i don't care about procedural generation if the characters and story are more bland than a middle school harry potter fanfic

#

i wanted skyrim in space

polar grail
rain patio
#

yeah but even skyrim has more stuff to do

#

it feels more alive

#

sounds like Bethesda spent too much time remastering skyrim 20,000 times and forgot how to make games lol

polar grail
#

I think the game would been

#

cool if the expanded

#

on the multiverse

#

gameplay

#

part

rain patio
#

yeah me too 😭

polar grail
#

but nah

#

only the start may have change

#

after you rebeat game 5 times or so

rain patio
#

and it's horribly optimized too. When skyrim came out, i could play it on high settings on a freakin 2012 office laptop with integrated graphics. And it ran fine and i had a blast

polar grail
#

if ur lucky

rain patio
#

Now that I think about it, only every other game by bethesda has been pretty successful...not counting Fallout because I don't really follow or care about fallout lol

polar grail
#

If u also think about it they really be following same formula

#

on making all their games

#

everything just modded skyrim

rain patio
#

Arena was what kicked off bethesda in the first place, and it did well. Daggerfall was meh. Morrowind was so good it brought Bethesda back from the brink of bankruptcy and is still a gem to this day (why tf won't they remaster it!?). Oblivion was mid and people always make fun of it. Skyrim was overwhelmingly successful. Starfield mid....So elder scrolls 6 may be amazing?

polar grail
#

really depend how good they make their rpg

#

aspect of their story

#

never will be on bg3 level

#

unless they really really try

rain patio
#

I just want skyrim but with slightly better combat, a less generic fantasy setting, and maybe they can do something to make the perk system better cuz half the perks are useless

polar grail
rain patio
#

😦

polar grail
#

they would done so already

#

if they wanted to

rain patio
#

I mean, combat has changed a lot from game to game

polar grail
#

they first need upgrade their game engine

#

or use different one

rain patio
#

nah their game engine is fine...they just are lazy

polar grail
rain patio
#

you can mod skyrim to have dark souls level combat and it works great lol

polar grail
#

all of them feel same

rain patio
polar grail
#

just one got swords

#

and other got guns

rain patio
#

sword combat in skyrim is so boring

#

just swing at each other and you can't really dodge

polar grail
#

like most people say the only good things about their games

#

is their mod community

#

and mod engine support they give

#

and how they fix their bug for them

rain patio
#

yeah the amount of bugs in elder scrolls games is absurd

#

wish they would patch them

#

like the modders who patch skyrim have everything so well documented

#

bethesda could just look up the list of fixes and ask the modders for their code so they can integrate the fixes directly into skyrim

#

my issue is that a lot of bugfixers take creative liberties with their mods that you can't download separately

#

it's really annoying

You can buy resistance bands

#

some can go upto 600 pounds of resistance lol

#

also take the happy pill prozac

#

pretty useful

rain patio
#

waz

forest scarab
#

NGMI

rain patio
#

I take prozac (or is it Lexapro?) and all it does is make it so it takes a lot more for me to feel stressed

#

but if in a really stressful situation, it's like it does nothing

crystal hollow
#

also therapy and SSRIs can help but its a process

#

if you need to get your shit in order quick, its moda time

rain patio
#

i need to go to the gym 😭

#

gym is the best therapy, or so i'm told

crystal hollow
#

but really, everyone needs time to sort through their feelings

#

inner peace and all that

#

if you can't devote time and effort towards that then anything else is going to be a bandaid

#

but if you're already on an SSRI or other anti-depressant, keep it up

#

better a bandaid than brain zaps from SSRI withdrawal

#

gym is therapy sure but have you considered the wind thru your hair and the crunch of macadam/dirt under the tires of your human-propelled machine

How many LC is optimal per day

#

For retention and learning

tardy geode
#

3-5

tribal rampart
#

I have pretty much the whole day though

tardy geode
#

i mean it depends how strong are you with the basics

#

like lets say you can solve any easies

tribal rampart
tardy geode
#

so you can do like 5-7 mediums a day BUT if you are ass at easies then i would say start with easies

#

then get on mediums

tribal rampart
#

Okay

tardy geode
#

just don't jump on mediums

#

many mediums are extensions of easies

#

hope that helps

tribal rampart
#

Yeah got you

tardy geode
#

i learned a lot of tricks that helped in mediums from easies

tribal rampart
#

Need to get good in 15 days

tardy geode
#

15 days

#

bro its not a race

#

LC is like going to the gym

#

you get better as you do it

tribal rampart
#

I only have 15 days for meta

tardy geode
#

if you are on a time crunch

#

oh wait

#

# tribal rampart Who is this bankman

Some guy who founded a cryptocurrency exchange business called FTX. A ton of people invested in his company because they thought he was making people tons of money and they wanted to join in in the fun. I think he lied about his financial info and also hid a bunch of crypto in some kind of offshore account that no one can find. He's definitely going to jail for decades or maybe even the rest of his life...but if he gets out he's gonna have a ton of money he can use to disappear

#

Funny how you can straight up murder someone and get 5 yeara of jail, but the guy who made rich people lose tons of money is probably never getting out of prison

how realistic is first job 110k remote (unicorn) -> FAANG pipeline? i believe i have the lc skills but really just lacking experience to land interviews since i didnt give much attention to internships during college. im thinking of taking this offer but afraid a "low paying" first job will make getting a high paying second job harder

#

thats why i put quotes. im speaking in relative terms

#

im living in nyc w my parents rn so i dont worry about hcol that much but 110k in nyc for swe is considered low

patent flame
#

U are bugging

polar grail
#

i mean tax it nyc is on higher end...,but ur living with ur parents

#

so...

#

dosent really matter

  • no office transportation costs
hardy relic
#

right but objectively speaking, my goal is way higher TC. i am afraid of the consequences of job hopping in whats potentially a few months time if i happen to land a job in the coming months (as hiring is going to be active again).

patent flame
#

Even if it’s not a crazy cost

hardy relic
#

its a bad look on taking a job and hopping a few months later, but is it really as bad as people make it seem? or if my goal is higher tc, would u guys even consider taking the risker route of not taking the offer for this goal

#

wouldnt it show up in background checks as im paying taxes

muted kindle
#

I have a feeling: a lot of big companies that had hiring freeze will reopen new grad hiring

hardy relic
#

really?

muted kindle
#

FAANG and those stuff

#

there are people reaching out

hardy relic
#

so i could just continue applying without updating my resume of this new job when i start and the company im applying to wont find out

#

o shit

polar grail
#

polar grail
#

to company u just hopped off on

#

but who cares

hardy relic
#

i wouldnt care about that

#

my biggest concern was just getting an interview and the company deciding to cancel it bc they found out im a job hopper

muted kindle
#

No one would say that in this market

polar grail

Countless experienced people got laid off bc company administration sucks

i found it on linkedin. it wasnt in the github repo. interview process was 1 hour (30 min behavioral + 30 min tech) followed by 3 hour final (four 45 minute rounds)

#

i have 250lc

brave forge
hardy relic
#

the tech was typical leetcode. i did have a 45 min system design round which i prepped through one of my brothers friends who works at faang

#

glassdoor shared that everyone was asked to design venmo specifically, so i just focused on that and that was what i got

brave forge
#

well

#

that's great stuff

#

my interview i knew the leetcode question they would ask off glassdoor but i overcomplicated the shit out of it because i thought they were Java only but they didnt care and i tried to cram learn java in 3 days and wasted my time

#

also the system design wiped me because i have no clue about that

hardy relic
#

i only got like 2 interviews off companies posted in the github repo, with most of my interviews being jobs i find on linkedin. since i dont have much internship experience, im guessing linkedin jobs are prob a better bet for me

brave forge
#

ya. im a may 24 grad so guess ill just keep that in mind while i job search and try and better prep off glassdoor next time i land an interview somewhere

In terms of job searching

hardy relic

im may 2023 grad so not jover ig

brave forge

why would they be it havent even been 1 year

patent flame

Idk bro my experience has been weird to say the least

brave forge
#

ya

#

what was your experience yams

patent flame
#

Some consider me too old, others not. Very random

brave forge
patent flame
#

Too old as in my grad year is considered class of 2023 but it doesn’t feel that way

brave forge
#

i dont see how 6 months post grad would be old

patent flame
#

That’s what I’m sayin

brave forge
#

they usually give you one year

patent flame
#

Maybe I’m overthinking idk

brave forge
#

unless they specifically asked you "why dont u have a job yet"

past hound

I just never gave up

patent flame

personally i want to job search harder once i graduate. idk how people balance school + job search + leetcode

#

i guess they job search over the summer break i just never have that

my state of missouri sort of sucks. there are jobs sometimes but its always "low pay" and they are rare to begin with

patent flame
#

Go for it

brave forge
#

was it easier landing a random job when u started searching nation wide

past hound
#

I was searching nation wide, ended up not needing to move at all.

#

Still plan to move at some point after getting some experience. My area is terrible for tech.

patent flame
#

I just want to get out of this place so bad but part of me feels like I’m rushing it

brave forge
#

na you should get used to moving to new places. it is how u grow your career the fastest

patent flame
#

Yea. Might as well while I’m young

#

Before my parents get too old

past hound
#

End goal for me is probably a tech hub like nyc or bay area or seattle.

brave forge
#

living in these low income states just isn't worth it

past hound
#

I am going to stay in my current area because the cost of living is dirt cheap and I am making six figures while remote, but once I get some years of experience, for sure going to try to see if I can move. I live in a state (NY) with a tech hub (nyc), but I live no where near it, so the tech jobs here are terrible.

brave forge
#

ya your in a lucky spot

#

all the devs that live in MO are remote also

and you can fly to either of the coast any time

i mean flights are cheap since its in the middle

brave forge

ya texas is such a mix. You got strong mexican american influence, lots of very conservative people, huge sprawling concrete urban areas, and just idk. lots of stuff that doesnt make it really appealing

brave forge

autumn iris
#

Susge no

brave forge
#

i was in bioinformatics/neurotech (not major, just career path) and it's a tough road to go

brave forge
#

@autumn iris why dont u apply here with bio informatics

analog oyster
#

I feel like the bio side is easier to pick up than the informatics side tho

#

U will prob be okay

autumn iris
#

also it really depends on ur situation

brave forge
#

do they pay u well for research?

autumn iris
#

i dont have any loans/debt

brave forge
#

ya ive heard that from every bio major

autumn iris
#

so many people
