    Hey this is really cool. Great to see what these large companies offer for SWE grads. I had an offer from ARM but turned it down for somewhere else I imagine arm would have been similar to Sky I’m more regards. Thanks for the insight into Sky

    awesome video man, sorry to ask but i really need to know! Im a 14 year old and im interested in being a software engineer. But I have 0 coding experience, so what programming language should I learn as my first programming language and what subjects should I focus more on? ( I'm homeschooled) oh and have a great day!

    • @zafaris
      @zafaris  7 месяцев назад +1

      Hey, thanks for the kind comment! Firstly it’s amazing that you have this passion at such a young age, so keep it up. I would suggest focusing more on Maths, Physics and CS at school as these subjects are important for A levels.
      I would suggest learning Python as your first language cause it’s simple yet powerful. After that it’s completely up to you based on your interests - dive into app dev, web dev, systems, AI.
      Enjoy the process and try to make some cool projects. You got this :)

    At what point should I start applying for internships? and also is it better to do an internship after year 2 or year 1?

    • @zafaris
      @zafaris  7 месяцев назад

      Try to apply ASAP, as soon as the internship application for a company opens. From my knowledge for summer internships this is usually between August to January. Spam applications so you get better at the process. It’s up to you, if you want to have more experience early on and earn a bit of money then why not do one from Year 1, unless you have other plans lol. Also there’s no reason you can’t do one in both years :)

      @zafaris  4 месяца назад

      You should still be fine, just make sure your CV is good with work experience and programming projects. Sky doesn’t have a very difficult interview process, but for other companies you’ll have to grind Leetcode (grind 75 is good)

      @zafaris  5 месяцев назад

      Congrats bro! Do you have any other offers? There are definitely job opportunities for international students in the UK, as a lot of my friends are international and they’ve secured job offers. It is competitive so you need to prepare for interviews, leetcode, behavioural etc. Companies will also favour people who have experience, through internships and past jobs on their CV. Best of luck!
