Man those who are starting college watching this kind of content are so lucky, one of the “bad sides” to watching these kinds of videos is that you realize you were never “dumb” or “not talented” enough you just didn’t have the right roadmap the right information, the right teacher to guide the decisions you make.

Totally agree - it's a complete game-changer to have all the right steps from day 1.

as a senior dev heres some advice: noone is hiring under 5 years of experience anymore. work on projects of the field you actually want to work in and maybe if you can profit from it, with a lot of leetcode and system design you might pass an interview. also don't trust these youtubers who dropped out of their free 2018 faang internship who claim you can do bootcamp and get a job in months. the reality: within 24 hours there are 600 other applicants with bachelors/masters degrees and 10 years of experience. you have to be able to compete and profit even if you're "entry level". also, you won't be able to get a job if you only invest your time in leetcode. you have to build things.

@zachbeall6810 День тому
As a junior developer. I got a job without any leetcode and you don't always need 5 years of experience to get hired. Sure it might be really hard but I don't think it's as doom and gloom as senior developer thinks it is.

im 21yo, in my 3rd year of bachelors(cse) and ngl since i started getting serious about career and what to do , i realised that people of my age have done so much already that im late and regret those 2 years of wasting time doing nothing with an average gpa , makes me feel demotivated but i try to counter that feeling by making myself believe that its never too late and 1 year can change a lot and i already started being dedicated , religiously learning , building stuffs , cut off useless scrolling time on social media and made a routine Im not confident enough to get an internship at microsoft and other big techs due to lack of skills but im gonna aim for it next year with a strong resume . 1 year ,12 months , 52 weeks , 365 days, each day making the most out of it .

Hey, this is my first time watching you. I really love the advice you gave here, I know I will be rewatching this multiple times. However, your point about getting my first internship came up with a question. What if I do not have family members who can refer me? The only person I can think of is my father who works in a large company and is in a relatively high position but for a completely different department than what I would expect software engineers to be in. What should I do?
@AmanManazir 27 днів тому
Ask your father to reach out to the software engineering department - even someone in that department will respect that he is a high up in a different area. Good luck

the software widely used my companies is called ATS (applicant tracking system). ATS struggles to read fancy formats so a basic google/word doc with no more than a header, a few dividers, and some bolding/underlining is more than enough. A nice start to achieving an ATS friendly resume might be to google or youtube “how to create an ATS friendly resume”

Use your network - reach out to people who graduated from your school that work there via LinkedIn. Ask friends and family if they know anyone who works at the company you're going for. It's a lot of messaging, word of mouth, etc. You got this.

@thelearningchap8529 Місяць тому
hey aman, i am international high school senior from india. I recently got into Georgia Tech for CS and the cost for 4 years would be 200k USD. I also got into University of Texas at Dallas (UTDallas) for CS and I got a scholarship there. So at UTD my cost for 4 years is 50k USD. So do you think I should spend extra 150k USD and get a Georgia Tech CS Degree as it is a brand or should I save money and go to UT Dallas.
@AmanManazir Місяць тому
Thanks for the question! It depends on how much money you have. I lean towards picking Georgia Tech and grinding as hard as possible - put your entire life into CS + software engineering and within 3-5 years you'll earn the difference back. The name-brand does matter and more importantly Georgia Tech will be very competitive and will motivate you to do much more. Good luck.
@thelearningchap8529 Місяць тому
@@AmanManazir my dad does have enough money to pay extra 150k (if worth) so say i choose GT and grind hard. But like there's one more thing that scares me. The traditional CS/SWE jobs are gonna go down probably and i am international so it would be even more difficult for me to get companies who sponsor intl students. So could you suggest a backup plan i should lean on. Should I minor in finance or something. or should I just focus on core SWE and it will not be a problem?
@AmanManazir Місяць тому
Minoring in finance is a waste. I would recommend getting great at AI - if you can double major CS + something AI related, you'll be set for the new AI based economy. You can do this.

This includes tons of projects, hackathons, clubs, etc. Try to find an internship or research to put on your resume. Sometimes companies will hire people with little experience if they do well on the interview, but it's tough. Good luck.
