For the reference, Citadel is usually the ultimate goal for uwaterloo students. Even the top students might only get an internship at Citadel in their last coop term. Joma got it in his second year, while I was still applying to no name companies. Imagine killing the beast titian when your peers are still learning to use the mobility gear
I really don't know if this guy is really a software developer... he seems to be too cool and funny. Awkward ending with the hug: Yup this guy is legit.
some of the sw engineers are really cool and some is really.. ugh... It is a reverse bell curve and more successful ones generally are from the cool side of the curve
It's incredible how much practical experience you get to have within a bachelor at University of Waterloo! 6 internships? Here in Italy you'd be lucky if the university allows you to get an internship for your thesis, once you're done with your exams because "at university theoretical knowledge is the #1 priority"... Guess nobody wonders why we're so much behind the US when it comes to tech..
That's what I love! I graduated last year in chemistry and got myself a job as business analyst at a fintech startup in London making £65,000 plus 2000 shares as well a private healthcare and pension. Best thing this was without doing any internships prior. Maybe I was lucky?
Are there any other universities that support these type of intensive co-ops? Would it be odd to apply to co-ops as a graduate? Getting this much experience seems amazing!
I just want to say that I just found your video and you have motivated me and increased my interest in programming and in other computer science topics. love your vids. Keep making more content
Hey Jomaaa great video! I thought it was very interesting and informing. You should do more content like this where you show real steps you took to get to Silicon Valley - and the process of landing super competitive jobs. I know about your course... so maybe this would be more of a retrospective look at how you got there and more tips!! Also, I'm glad you're looking more happy and are back on RUclips.
It's good that you shared all your job offers and rejections when you're coming up in the field, it's such a motivation because most people won't show that stuff
Palantir tech asked you the same questions and you still failed xD you are so funny ! Thanks for the laughs. You and TechLead are the best and keeps us noobs going.
I don't understand why people think being a freshman vs sophomore vs junior etc matters for the types of questions a company would ask you. Except for certain programs where they want freshman and sophomores, they're gonna ask the same type of questions to everyone. They want the most qualified people for the job regardless of how far they are into school
@@isaacjfung yes, but the point of a system design question is to draw on experience as an engineer - that being said, you can grok most things. Though, not really a great test for first time interns.
Nice at least I’m not alone, I’m currently working at McDonalds too (I might also be the worst team player lol) and I hope I could go to UW (if my top 5 doesn’t drop below 94 :P)
I guess studying at a top tier school really paid off. You were a freshmen and got some offers from Bloomberg, Citadel, and other well known firms!? TF!? I graduated with a Finance degree, but can't even get a freaking bank teller jobs!!

You are telling us what your offers were here at all. We didn't click on this video to see a list of companies, but to see how much they offered you at what stage, and what the terms were.
Sounds like your college education was actually worth the time and money. Mine was more like a book club with grades.

Same here my life compare to him feels like nothing tbh lol
sign me up
Waterloo is def worth it.
In tunisia even if they give you money you are the looser cuz its the shit it self not even a piece of it

This does put a smile on my face.
16:20 she got friendzoned faster than speed of light.
blasttrash I think that’s some kind of respect 1000000000.
But could be fzoned too :P
LOL
ariana grande dont affect him
nothin wrong with getting friendzoned btw, still better than stranger tho
The only problem when you are faster than light is that you are in darkness....

He fricking cut the video off to not tell he didn't get any offers !
The last part was gold. Let's do that again !
That might have been...no it definitely is the most awkward acceptance of a gift I have ever seen. Both of you helped to make it more awkward 😂
Kinda warm my heart a bit when you appreciated a teacher for her work.
11:21 that was a brilliant cut for not to revealing companies name 😂
I got U 😁
It was for brol
Palantir tech asked you the same questions and you still failed xD you are so funny ! Thanks for the laughs. You and TechLead are the best and keeps us noobs going.

How do I turn Indian recruiter calls into actual job offers lol
Code Phony offer services as a consultant, for a small upfront fee and basic contract, you can help find them recruits xD
Lol!
Being Indian, we are still figuring out.
@@magn8 good to hear! We're waiting for jobs out here!!
Honestly, if I can't understand or recognize the recruiting firm they're calling from I assume they're scammers and just hang up. Ignore their emails.
i love the way Joma showed her room mate the way to react xD really got the sense of humor
11:22 Wow, The Techlead would never make this mistake while filming.
That's not a mistake man! It seems to me it was a b-roll
Navo so dumb.......
Only, it wasn’t a mistake.
00:27 Techlead vibes, I'm lovin' this.

as someone who cant ask anyone else these kind of infos, thanks for this
To this day. I’m still trying to understand that hug rejection
Social awkward developer...
Your career graph is inspiring and shows that anything is possible with discipline and effort. Keeps us coming back to see where ur heading to next..
Watching this 1:22 AM instead of studying for my discrete math exam at 8:00 AM. Maybe this vid'll give me some luck.
Did you survive
Cliffhanger.
whoa still no reply!
Legend says this man is still writing his discrete math exam
This video is so wholesome. This is the shit I like to see.
Last time I checked, Joma's face is still on the homepage of Citadel
THIS IS WRONG LOOL
Protect this guy at all costs
Man you’ve got huge opportunities in Canada/USA I started to think about moving from the Middle East to the US
Do it
You should
Haven't seen such an awkward moment for a while. Thanks Joma.
i just miss this Joma, so much engaging with viewers.
I can watch your videos whole day and still can’t stop watching it....
I like your humour 👌🏻
talking about and ungrateful that girl takes it to a new level. You should’ve given that to somebody who really needs it.
Just full on shut down that hug! I wish I had the courage to do that.
“The best school in Canada”.

Mark Lu I have interned with co-op students from several universities in the past. UW engineering students were the most chill and fun.
As an american (but candian citizen) planning on applying to candian eng schools, would u recommmend waterloo or UofT?
8:41 This is what Nostalgia looks like.
Joma just found out you are French Canadian. You sound like you grew up in California. any Montreal stories?
Thank you so much for sharing Joma. One suggestion: please mention the internship salary/package with the offers too. Thanks :)
Yooo this guy makes me laugh in ways that I have never been made to laugh. I like it!
Switching every semester for internships is a brilliant idea.
Great video!! Looking back with all the AMAZING knowledge you know now is there anything you would’ve done differently!?!
And bro says bro is still single. Bro is just rejecting the life partner offer without knowing
19:51 damn that
Oopsie.. Seems like someone pressed the trap
Nice at least I’m not alone, I’m currently working at McDonalds too (I might also be the worst team player lol) and I hope I could go to UW (if my top 5 doesn’t drop below 94 :P)
