    Hi, my name is Tina and I'm a data scientist at a FAANG company. I was pre-med studying pharmacology at the University of Toronto until I finally accepted that I would make a terrible doctor. I didn't know what to do with myself so I worked for a year as a research assistant for a bioinformatics lab where I learned how to code and became interested in data science. I then did a masters in computer science (MCIT) at the University of Pennsylvania before ending up at my current job in tech :)

    1. There IS NO DREAM JOB. focus on doing stuff you like and are good at. if you don't particularly like anything, do general stuff and then start digging deep if it pleases you
    2. your career is a group of different things. (yt + job + teaching). you can make your own dream career by doing multiple things that satisfy you
    tips:
    1. start small. prioritize
    2. be consistent
    3. giving up doesn't mean failure. if you don't feel like it's the best for you, move on
    4. don't place too much importance on a single choice

    *Wall of text incoming*
    I needed to watch this video as it's very fitting for where I am in life. I'm 25 and always had a passion for technology and wanting to build things since I was a kid, namely videogames. This dream slowly died as I got older due to a lot of doubt and feeling like I wasn't good enough. I ended up going to college for social work because I thought tech would be "too hard for someone like me" even though I finished top 20 in my class in high school and got accepted to all the universities I applied to xD. I didn't even get through my first semester of college before I realizing "I hate this major". I told my parents and they basically forced me to stay because they were pulling out so much money to keep me in school (poor family... still don't know why they didn't just let me do community college tbh). Rough situation that led me to falling into some serious depression. I somehow pushed through and got my degree and as soon as I graduated I tried becoming a counselor. I still didn't like what I was doing but was WAY too afraid to face the truth since I invested 4 years into pushing through to get my degree.
    I eventually got counseling through my church that helped me with my mental health and the feeling of anger that I had towards my parents for not letting me change majors or schools. From there I quit my job and grabbed a random job at Whole Foods just to make some money. I was so lost and needed something to give me direction. Shortly afterwards, I met someone from my men's group at my church who's been doing full-stack web development for over 10 years and basically had a long talk with him about my interest in what he did. He told me through code you could build things like apps, websites, and even videogames and I was like WHAT I thought coding was only for the hacker Matrix type stuff lol. He pretty much set me up with the classes that I'm now taking, how to learn without making a lot of rookie mistakes (tutorial hell), and offered to be my mentor. Since then, i've been on the self-taught web development route and am finally choosing to take control of my life and career.
    Here's the goals I have set for myself in regards to what I want to do:
    - Get hired as a web developer for a company so I can get paid and still learn lol
    - Make an indie game and release it on Steam as well as other platforms if it does well
    - Content creation (RUclips)
    - Teach classes on how to code once I get good, a lot of people in my neighborhood have really crappy education as well as little money so it would be nice to offer something like this to them. I'd also wanna release an online class through a place like Udemy!
    - Start my own business
    - Still use my skills that I have gotten in my degree and incorporate that into making a project or app that can help people with mental health issues/helping them to get their life on track
    TL;DR - Take control of your life and your career, it'll be so worth it when you find joy in the things that you do!

It was exhausting but when I finally found things I liked it was so worth it and all the burnout vanished because I was working on something that I enjoyed. I realized that if I don’t grab my career by the horns and make it mine, its all on me and no one else.

Especially when there are ppl out there saying ‘man, you’re low-key wasting your time...’. The concept of dream job implies that there’s an ultimate and static goal in your life and I’m not willing to adhere to it. My goal has always been to be multidimensional, have an impact and grow every day, so thank you for ensuring me that it’s a valid way of living🥰

I keep teetering back and forth between "if I just put in some more effort and be patient I can finally land that dream FAANG job without the debt" and "nobody will even look at my resume without a degree so stop wasting time and just get the piece of paper." I definitely have big entrepreneurial aspirations that I've just been waiting to find the right idea for. Maybe it's time to just do it and see what happens.

    To anyone reading this, here's some advice from someone who's been through making all the wrong choices with my studies and career:
    Know what you want.
    REALLY know what you want, and don't compromise on it. Stand up for yourself and know when to quit when things aren't working out. If you're uncomfortable around your colleagues, or if you feel like your work isn't want you hoped it would be, figure out how you can get out of that spot. I'll tell you now, it'll only end in misery. I wasted three years in what I eventually realized was a really toxic workplace and it absolutely wasn't worth it.

      I was in the exact situation for three years, too. But when you suffer from anxiety and imposter syndrome, you're never sure if it's the workplace that is toxic or your brain that is overreacting. Plus, if you've always been miserable at any job you've been to, than something must be wrong with you - I think to myself. Anyways, currently unemployed, yes that work drained the happiness out of me but the anxiety of being unemployed and never being sure of WHAT I WANT is getting worse with each day. The longer I stay unemployed, the lower my expectations fall and this is a cycle that leaves me searching for any job I could get my hands to, which in return leaves me miserable. Dammit!

      @lcl3331 2 года назад +2

      @@melnjada2 Hello, sorry to hear about the situation you are in.:) One little piece of advice, try to visualize your ideal self, what kind of work is that person doing? You need to see the big picture clearly at first (what would truly bring you satisfaction?), then figure out the steps to get as close as possible towards that vision. When working towards that vision, there will be A LOT of failure for sure. And I mean a lot. What's important is really sticking to working towards that goal, regardless of how many failures or hardships you go through (because after 99 failures, there will be 1 win). Also, it's absolutely ok to take breaks (in order to prioritize your health) as long as you get back to it. Having an ideal in mind that you believe in will bring you comfort when times are hard. It's important, however, to make sure not to compromise too much (i.e.do not give up trying to do what you really want, just because you don't believe you can do it), so you don't end up feeling miserable again. You can do it. You absolutely can do it.

    Hi Tina, I’ve just started watching your videos recently and I must say that I find your insights really helpful! I just started grad school in a field that combines classic molecular research with AI (deep learning). The fact that you talked about multi-disciplinary stuff being interesting to you resonated with me a lot. At first I was worried I couldn’t cope with this field I chose being from a more classical ME background (I did do some AI stuff on the side in my undergrad but I was exploring a lot hence didn’t hone my skillsets that much in any particular branch of AI), but hearing your experiences was really inspirational since you didn’t come from a tech background. Your approach that you mentioned towards the end of the video really opened up my mind that I cannot be too worried about the masters program I chose, I was worried that this might doom my future prospects of getting a career in tech (should I decide to not pursue academia). Instead, what you mentioned about learning and building skillsets that can allow you to adapt to any job (or the job you want) quickly, that is really helpful and practical advice. I was struggling to learn new stuff in masters as a lot of it is still new to me and my anxiety has been ramping up haha. Your advice made me want to learn this new knowledge with more consistency, and once I am stable and more confident in it I will explore data science or other knowledge I find interesting. Again, thank you so much for the inspiration!

    There absolutely is a dream job. I know because I've been doing mine for the past seven years. However, just because you landed your dream job doesn't mean you should do it forever. Even if you're having the time of your life, if you're not learning new things, then you're not growing. Your priority for your job/career shouldn't be about having fun; it should be about continuously building your skill set. If that's no longer happening at your job, it's time to get a new job!

    we are alike in so many ways, i like many things but i've never been excellent in ONE specific thing, i want a life worth living (bc why bother staying otherwise). i was - and still am - very lost and afraid right now and i don't know yet what i expect from life but watching your videos really motivated me to try to do my best everyday, not necessarily for my job aspirations but for my career (i liked the way you defined it by the way). i think your videos are what made me realise that there is much more to life than just the job we choose. i will be completely honest and admit that i am still very much afraid of life and the difficulty it seems to be and most of the time i struggle finding the will to put so much effort in a life that doesn't seem so rewarding but i will try to my best (to be noted that i suffer from depression and other mental illnesses so don't absorb my perception and make it yours, you who read that comment ^^). in any way, i wish you all a good life

    Woow.. I won’t comment so much on the content itself, like the great reference to the atomic habits book which I personally use like a bible or the fact that I’m sync with you about what great time it is to be alive with so much freedom and free information to help us choose our careers. I’ll just say that for me this is the most mature video you’ve done so far and your improvement in the content since you started the channel is showing up. As with everything, you can always tell if a person enjoys what they’re doing and that’s crystal clear about you and youtube! You’re shining! So well done and you totally deserve becoming successful on youtube through this channel!

    It indeed requires guts to admit that you will never have a "dream job" coz even if you reach that stage, your dream will change in an instant and you're back in the chase. Choose a "dream standard of living" instead. You'll be much more grateful and most importantly, choose your "dream standard of life" coz that's what counts the most and we tend to forget it very quickly. 🐢🐢🐢
    Rant over. Peace ✌🏻🕊️

    I have a pretty good data scientist job but with covid and remote work I'm not enjoying it anymore so I'll quit and do something else for a bit, go back to school and try out new things. We will see how it will work out and I know it won't bomb my career. Better find some motivation now than go through a giant burn in a year or 2.

    Jobs Vs Career! Thank the gods someone gets it! Your jobs are servicing clients. They can dare think they own you. They don't. No more than you own that mechanic or doctor. You employ them to help you with something you don't want to do or can't do. Are you limited to one job role or can your skill base encompass so much more? Income per job type is how it is valued to that client or restricted to what is held within that wallet or purse. Remember: someone could easily underbid you for that note. You can try and cherry pick your clients and promise to add value with a good service agreement.

    I recently discovered your channel and I really like it. I'm currently doing my bachelor's degree in CS. I never really thought about what to do in the future or what kind of job I want to do. I just choosed computer science because I thought it's pretty cool and now I'm stuck what I really want to or love to do. It's so hard for me to figure it out. I actually searched my future job based on highest salary and future demand. But your video really changed my mind. So I will continue explore to see what I really want or love to do...😀Thank you so much for your advice and love you a lottt....❤️

That's one great skill to develop because this may sound cliché, but the only constant in life is change. So as Bruce Lee said, "Be like water, my friend". 😁

I walked into my last internship barely knowing anything about Linux, virtual environments, azure devops, etc... I learned enough to get by but I’d love to get a more formal training. Not sure where to start though.

    @Ryan78336 2 года назад

    Someone once told me, passions don’t exist. If you start with find your passion, as if it’s something that’s out there waiting ready made for you, you’ll never find it. A passion is built from experiences gained. I grew up wanting to be a firefighter but I became a nurse. I didn’t grow up wanting to be a nurse and definitely didn’t have a passion for it when I was training. But I wanted job security, something I could always use to earn an income wherever I am in life. Over time I discovered aspects of the field that played to my strengths as well as other areas of life that do or that I find interesting. Music, finances, gardening. I’ve learned that whatever you decide to do, you’re not always going to enjoy it. So squeeze out those times where you do. For me in my field, this was always when there was a tricky clinical problem to solve. This tended to occur most when I worked in large hospitals and rehab hospitals and almost never in nursing homes. So I gotta chase those opportunities to play to my strengths and the aspects of the field that I truly love. For now tho because I’m so in need of a long brake, I work in horticulture. This I didn’t anticipate, but I’m gonna take what I can from the experience.

    I tried trading bots, day trading, found I do better making trades on the hour time scale. I got my first job where there is some coding in the job, but there are other non coding task in job.
    I started back in 2011 trying to cultivate multiple streams of income. Nothing has panned out. I didn't have clear goals. Didn't know RUclips could help by posting videos regularly. But with coding I'm going to take the entropunarial route and try building web pages with html, cos and python.

    One of the trickiest pieces of advice someone can give to us is to persuade this myth called "dream job", there's no such thing as that. As you said, we need to find a job who fulfills our needs (like paying our bills) and who is not awful enough, and at some point, we start became really good at it and it this starts brings us some kind of joy. At this point, we can feel that's the right job they mentioned about.
