    I really like this monthly-ish summary format, don't feel bad about doing it this way again if this works better for you :)

    I get really damn nervous when speaking to companies over the phone and even while watching you just wait for a phone call my stomach drops. Can't wait to go through this process myself in a couple weeks when i start applying for grad jobs!

      What I do while I wait is stand up and stretch. Put some positive music on and have some water nearby.
      Best of luck

      Just imagine they are naked and have a funny hat on. It will put a smile on your face and you'll sound much more relaxed and positive for the other side. Good luck!

    I had a job interview yesterday for a summer job. I have had great internships but I don't really care anymore. I might as well be unemployed next summer.

    I have also been using a Casio F-91 since primary school(Over 10 years now). My friends tell me it makes me look like a high school kid, but who cares, I see Jake you are also using the same watch.

  • @johnosullivan2017
    @johnosullivan2017 6 лет назад

    Good luck with the current leads; you've been on the market for a while now, and I'm surprised there've been no takers so far. Both Monzo and Ovo are cool, fintech flavoured, startup firms. But you've done startups for all your roles so far, and the FT could be a good option. You'll have less competition from younger startup minded devs, and get to experience the corporate environment. More stability, much better pay, but less interesting work. Another upside of corporate experience with FT is that it will equip you to work as a contractor at banks in the City of London where there's lots of well paid regulation driven work. And yet another upside of corporate experience is that it also equips you for senior tech roles at B2B startups that target corporate buyers as opposed to B2C like graze.

    I'm trying to get my first compsci internship and it is so stressful because my programming skills and knowledge are so buggy that I feel I won't land anything for this summer. I also haven't worked on any big projects yet :(

    let me give you a piece of advice, give us a video of how to make a table.. you should focus on those kind of videos, it musnt be difficult for you dude, and that will boost your visits.. looking forward to watching your coding videos

  • @lucassalt4721
    @lucassalt4721 6 лет назад +13

    Hi Jake I really like your videos this is not a critique but I would recommend you sound more upbeat in these phone interviews and also get a suit and tie for the face-to-face interviews I would also recommend you look at how to sell yourself and your set of skills and turn the fact that you left your previous job in the probation period into a positive I know that you didn't detail the full phone interviews in your video and this is just a general comment I never comment so and I was not going to but I wanna help you

    • @Mr__Chicken
      @Mr__Chicken 6 лет назад +1

      I thought this as well. I'm actually surprised that a Cambridge graduate doesn't wear a suit for interviews, or work on their charisma. Maybe it's just the way programmers/their department is?

    • @jakewrightnet
      @jakewrightnet  6 лет назад +16

      Thanks for the advice! The suit is an interesting one though-wearing a suit for developer interviews is just not really a thing. I've never known or seen anyone do it (except for jobs where you'd actually be expected to wear a suit, but this is very rare for developers).

    • @andrewmumford2144
      @andrewmumford2144 6 лет назад

      Not that I am all knowing but for an internship for a software developer assistant at the cdc me the guy before and after me were wearing suits just thought that might be interesting

    • @PeteS_1994
      @PeteS_1994 6 лет назад

      Russell Tbh, the suit or charisma doesn't make the programmer. But I haven't applied for any IT jobs.

    • @erdmax_
      @erdmax_ 4 года назад

      He was being himself while probably performing the technical part admirably. If I was doing the interview that is a perfect candidate.

  • @sanzthescorpion

    I thought jobs for comp sci are plenty in London? Weren't there supposed to be lots of opportunities

    • @WhoShorts_
      @WhoShorts_ 6 лет назад +12

      There are loads of opportunities, he's just so picky and keeps chopping and changing from one to another. Could have easily of kept the previous job whilst looking for something better. More often than not people have to do jobs they dont like 100% but not this guy.

    • @anarki777

    • @DONofC0D
      @DONofC0D 6 лет назад +7

      you should check his videos from when he was at cambridge. he puts so much hard work into time planning etc. he's just looking for work that would suit him which software developers have the privilege of doing since there are plenty of opportunities

    • @jakewrightnet
      @jakewrightnet  6 лет назад +44

      I left one job that I didn't enjoy. I don't think that really counts as chopping and changing. There are lots of opportunities in London-I'm very lucky to be living here. You don't just get offered jobs without going through interviews though and unfortunately they can be slow.

    Why don't you apply for jobs at Whitehall, The Treasury or The Foreign Office ? Your Cambridge degree would make you an excellent Whitehall mandarin and you chances of getting a job would also be higher .

    • @oxymoronified
      @oxymoronified 6 лет назад

      As somebody currently in their final year at Cambridge; the civil service is one of the worst places for Cambridge Students to apply. All of my friends who have applied have been rejected, they are not interested so much in where you studied your degree, placing far more importance on online assessments than CV/University reputation and grades.

  • @ROCKY-pu1zt
    @ROCKY-pu1zt 5 лет назад

    Jake, you come out of a great name, Cambridge, impressive! You are quite unique in your presentation, but I feel you are far more of a people person than a developer, even though that is obviously your passion and are very good at it. You are very good indeed at marketing, and you give a good narrative, a company would be wasting a man like you if they just plonked you behind a desk with a computer and keyboard and asked you to design and type code. Still, this is just my opinion
