Wow.. this was the exact video that I needed to watch at current point in my life as an international MS student with time running out for getting an internship
Update guys.. got an internship! So keep hustling everyone!!
@@musicbrorijitAmazing!
Honestly I have no words man. Every single point you made here resonated with me so strongly as an upcoming third year computer engineering student from UCI trying to get a job in software. I appreciate the helpful tips towards overcoming that low motivation, especially cuz the Comp Eng curriculum at Uci doesn't let you take software classes so you are more or less on your own to learn everything. Thank you for the motivation
Thank you KC, it’s crazy how similar my initial job hunting experience was to yours (6 months, 500+ apps). I was finally able to leave my toxic job after working 3 years to commit to studying/interviewing again and feel much better equipped this time around with these insights. 🙏🏽💪🏽 Good luck to everyone else interviewing as well!
thank you for a realistic vid on not just the same old study skill tips , and actually discussing the very real barriers we feel and how to overcome them 🥺
We don't know that the bread will take an hour. Hell - we don't even know the ETA - which is why we keep checking on the bread - hoping that it is done.
Going through it right now and so great to get validation that all these feelings other feel too. it feels good not to be alone on this process. finding a job really is a job in itself
Great timing! I'm not on the interview grind, but this is great advice for tackling any big goal/project.
I really appreciate your videos and insights.
Love this video. Thanks KC!
Thank you KC, I do feel exactly the same, I related a lot to this video and thank you for the tips, I think they will be helpful in my journey
Great points kc, the mind wants proof. Otherwise we can subconsiously shut ourselves down thinking theres no progress being made.
I don't usually write comments but sometimes i must just to say THANK YOU , really thank you KC for your amazing videos.
i'm not sure what to say either i'm lucky to find your channel immediately after finishing my degree and all the points you mentioned are literally what i'm going through right now
The reason why SWE interviews are so hard and take so long to train for is because the market is oversaturated. For every opening, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of applicants, so companies use the difficulty of the process as a filter. They want you to drop out because they want to hire only the candidates who want it badly enough to tolerate the process.
Recent bootcamp grad here. Hard to stay motivated when you can't even land any interviews. 650+ apps in, only 1 interview. Needa re-evaluate, maybe I'm doing something wrong
yes you do need to re evaluate asap...coz that's a lot of apps and the success rate is way too low... A change in strategy, restructuring your approach etc might help
Learn something that’s not just React
Actually landed a job back in oct. it's possible fellas
Thanks.
Great video ! Would be nice if someone that went through the process could break down the learning into milestones
Scary. I hope tech jobs are secure in the future.
Its already been around 1.8 years I've finished bachelors and I haven't still done proper leetcode grind. I mean I have done 50-60 questions but I was not consistent, I was some days then I wasnt't. I am not from USA so half of my time will be spent on the visa process.. the exams to get there and I have a full time job .
Will I ever start?
Well I don't technically do leetcode but I do exercise.
Not a programmer but like watching these videos. I have a few friends who do programming. I just can’t understand this not having a job for months. Can you make an informative video on how this works. This concept is just so confusing to me for some reason.
thanks for the video! just a quick question, how long did it take you to be able to solve a leetcode problem without searching anything on google? I started learning java and programming about 2 and half weeks ago and I've been trying leetcode for about 4 days up until now, it is a painnnnnnn

Thanks.
