i got my r2 tmr so im stressing 😭

vague egret Jan 28, 2026, 6:00 AM

dont stress too much

#

my interviewers were chill

#

thing I think that helped me alot was thinking out loud and explaining my process before doing it, so if you screw up they can help

#

i lowkey did mid on the graph one hoping I still got a chance tho

waxen shale Jan 28, 2026, 6:03 AM
