The jump from "We use google docs and slack" to "Integrate solidworks and AutoCAD with 3 other programs for manageent and communication" is so relatable lmao.
I'm about a year into my first engineering job, I felt that 90% figure for a good 8 or so months. I'm happy to report at 1 year only about 80% things go over my head now 😊
As a Software Engineering (ex) student, this is exactly what I expierienced last year. Remember though, 90% of why you're there is to learn and get experience. They dont expect an intern to be able to do what a full time engineer with 100 years of experience can do (these job requirements are getting out of hand). So make sure to ask a lot of questions, especially early on. Even if you dont absorb all of it, you'll start catching on.
Actually insanely accurate, the constant sense of awkwardness you feel on the first day is exactly like this! Especially with how friendly all the higher ups are!
This video could not have come at a better time, I just started my internship and I thought I was a major screw up, I didn't realize that they were all like this.
Trust me this is all normal and part of the process. They don’t expect you to know everything. They just want to see you make an earnest effort to learn.
Great video! As a fellow Mechanical Engineer, I can definitely relate to the excitement and nerves on the first day as an intern. It's refreshing to see someone share their experiences in a humorous and relatable way. I cover various topics in the field of Mechanical Engineering also and would love to connect with fellow engineering enthusiasts. Keep up the great work Tamer!
I've been working in the industry for over a decade at this point, and honestly it's great to have a video like this so I can get a feel for what the experience is like for an intern. A video I'd love to see is the best things you've seen done for companies onboarding new interns and junior hires. That can always be a struggle to get right.
This is exactly what I felt on my first day, LOL! Couldn't agree more about the abbreviation part! There are a bunch of abbreviations to get familiar with, which makes me anxious in the first few months.
My first day on the job as a Chem E intern started in a bio pharmaceutical lab, It was awesome! I’m kind of glad my time didn’t start out like this, everyone I was with was very supportive, friendly & energetic. There was also a multidisciplinary team there, of pharmacologists, microbiologists, chemists & the engineers were there to scale up the production process. It was nothing like this, I would have been really disappointed & uninterested if my internship started of like this, the inside of the building looks old, moldy, dim & depressing.
As a current engineering intern that 2x speed manager explanation and "I have to jump into another meeting right now so I'll let you figure it out right now" intern: "oh ok makes sense" hits right on the bullseye 🤣. That is literally one of my default replies while I'm processing, along with "uhh", "I can't really seem to find the . . .", and "for sure" while not knowing jacksh*t and trying not to internally have a mental short circuit while more meetings I'm in go over my head
I'm not an engineering student yet.. but i somehow understood everything that the manager told to do.. and, that acting like "I know what I'm doing" was so connecting! 😂😂
Edge computing refers to a decentralized computing paradigm that brings computational power and data storage closer to the location where it is needed, rather than relying on a centralized cloud infrastructure. In edge computing, data processing and analysis are performed on or near the edge devices, such as smartphones, IoT devices, routers, or edge servers, which are located closer to the data source. The concept of edge computing has emerged as a response to the growing need for low-latency, real-time processing of data generated by devices at the edge of the network. By processing data locally, edge computing reduces the need to transmit vast amounts of raw data to a central data center or cloud for analysis, resulting in faster response times and improved efficiency.
@@grandsome1 Even better, microcontrollers are inherently designed to use built-in resources. For the lack of processing power, they mostly use look-up tables stored in their memory which were computed earlier by the external processing and stored.
Big dum-dum question here. Wouldn't the paradigm still be centralized but with further steps? Straight out of my thoughts, it would look more like a tree, where the cloud server is the center, the nodes to which the end devices connect act as an intermediary with the cloud server in order for it to reduce latency.
Oh so instead of relying on connection to computing servers somewhere else, you bring the computing servers on location so you rely less on internet connection speed for the data to go back and forwards? I don't know, never really heard of it until now.
Bro I ve been following your channel since the beginning, and you drop this video 2 days before I start my first internship as a mechanical engineer 🤯 Keep up the good work !
I wish you all the best! I hope one one day I’ll become a mechanical or electrical engineer as well. Your videos are helping me a lot, so keep up with new content.
Thank you for the video! Good content as always. I start my first engineering internship this summer so this video gave me a lot of insight. Not sure how well it will go for me, wish me luck!
4:30 as someone who is currently a comp sci student, but has also been working in different industries for the last 15 years the drama/gossip is always prevalent no matter where you go. It’s unfortunate so many people get dragged into it and even if you abstain from it sometimes you’ll end up being the gossip.
As someone who helps onboard new engineers and interns, this is super accurate. My main suggestions for new people are to relax, and to not worry about getting everything in the first few days. Feel free to ask again if you forgot something, or need help getting up to speed on a new tool or project. No one expects you to be able to meaningfully contribute in your first few days there, so take the opportunity to meet people, and to start familiarizing yourself with the tools, workflow, and projects. You'll be part of the team in no time!
That is why entered to mechatronics engineering after being a mechanic technician of a few years. Nowadays every device has some embedded electronics and software. I was familiar with everything I was able to hear in the video. It looks like IOT is a big part of the product of this company. It sounds like they were discussing the physical layer of a radio communication system. Something about modulation maybe, for an edge device. There is, a device that is going to get data that is probably going to be processed in the cloud.
Man if this is how you people approach internships you have to work on your confidence, you already got the job, now make questions all the time it doesn't matter if you end up looking stupid. Relax and bound with people when eating lunch together and stuff, everyone is human, just be you.
On day one you’re still figuring out the deal with the company and the people. If this was portraying how someone acted a couple weeks in, I’d agree with you. Day one, especially of the very first internship is an adjustment period.
My first day at a "real company" was 3 signatures, a box of merch and my colleagues showing me where the beer is. First week was just waiting for a remote vdi, and then, it came, the setup hell. 3 days I struggled to set everything up, but me and a couple of colleagues did it. After that, smooth sailing.
Coming from a country that 80% are small medium companies, can’t be happier for you specially after seen how they treat people in Apple recruitment process.
Man, I remember my first days as an electricians apprentice in a huge firm the exact same way. I didn't know shit about anything. A year later and it felt like I had been there for years. None of the problems I had at the start remained. Instead, I was the dude that new guys sought out to ask questions. Honestly, it felt pretty rewarding to god from not knowing a thing, to knowing more than enough to teach the new guys. By year 3 I and two of my other other apprentices were basically teaching the new guys more than the instructors did. (We got about 30 new apprentices every year) Honestly, teaching was probably one of the most fun parts about the job. Maybe I should take that into considertation going forward.
I'm an intern at a soft dev company, and on my first day there were literally 3 people including me. And one of them was also an intern, rest of them all worked from home:)))
Having a laptop for yourself right in the first day? That's too good to be true. You'd normally have to wait from 3 days to an entire week to have the company give you a computer, they have to order it, file the asset, set it up, set up your accounts, and you know... it usually takes time. And all that time you are not going to be able to do actual work, you are going to spend it reading manuals and doing minor stuff they give you to keep you busy. That's how it went for me at least. Oh yeah, and then they'll make you use a thousand databases and software you probably never heard about. That mention about Jira really calls home.
John is the kinda of person who always gets me nervous as hell for no reason. He's the kind of person who'd talk wild s*** about you and would try to get you fired over the smallest s***.
So end of the day was so accurate as I am interning now and I always have wait till 5 or 6 to be able to go home when HR gives the permission. But where I am interning I don't usually get works like 1 work in a day is like avg which takes like less then half hour to complete😂😂.
not knowing how salary worked was so funny. from basic jobs to basically being on call was so trippy. i still remember the boring meetings and having to solve your problems alone, could not even rent out an intern. to this day i still think the techs made more than us. (over time) "end of day 5pm " haha you fucking wish.
on the first day of my job as a tech support, they send me to a factory to fix a laser calibration machine. no training and meeting. can u imagine how confused i was?
What always push my buttons is when people say the most important thing crazy fast! It is like, you said so much ShT but it never occurred to you to speak fast but now!😕😕
The jump from "We use google docs and slack" to "Integrate solidworks and AutoCAD with 3 other programs for manageent and communication" is so relatable lmao.
1K likes and no replies? Let me change that.
No shit... in my experience theres a project proposal at Day 2 and I get to design Test Development Software for a product.
Even as a full time engineer, I have no idea what the fuck anyone is talking about 90% of the time in my meetings.
😂 I feel that. 90% of the discussion doesn’t concern me, then I hear a word or phrase I know and the switch comes back on
lmfao me with literally everything
I'm about a year into my first engineering job, I felt that 90% figure for a good 8 or so months. I'm happy to report at 1 year only about 80% things go over my head now 😊
Bro, I felt this
Glad to know I’m not the only one.
This is the most realistic depiction I've ever seen. Everything is exactly what I experienced on my first day. Good work 😂
is it actually like that??

thats reassuring
Thanks for this man
Aight that sounds great guess ill keep applying getting frustrated af tho
If they don't expect me to have experience then why do they still say "528 years of experience in this or similar positions (required)" on the job ad
@@Napert and if you dont lie they ignore your resume
Actually insanely accurate, the constant sense of awkwardness you feel on the first day is exactly like this! Especially with how friendly all the higher ups are!
not just the first day, he will feel that for at least week
“Even if I do I’m just an intern anyway” 😂 sooo accurate.
Man this is so ridiculously timely, I am starting in an Engineering firm next week and was looking for something like this, thank you so very much
LITERALLY SAME

Dawg same, I am nervous out of my mind
I start an AWS internship next week lol
