free housing in NYC, what a deal.
i still can't believe i got the offers, i must've maxed out luck on character creation LOLOL
Honestly a Big Tech on the resume is way better on the resume than a great GPA 😁 Congrats ! 🥳
Congrats on the offer! As a CS student myself, I was starting to lose hope and becoming more intimidated by the interview process for SWE lol. But this video popped up at the right time for me.Hearing your story is inspiring and makes me want to work harder and push myself even more.
Congrats on landing a MAANG job!! Edit: now with facebook being Meta, we can actually call it MANGA
I am an absolute coding newbie, currently in my first semester as a freshman in college. I am taking Harvard's free online CS50 class and have liked it enough to change my major to CS. Hoping one day I can be in a position like you are now. Keep up the great work, you earned it!
He is truly going "above and beyond" ngl
Duuuude! I relate so much. I have ADHD too and I got interviews with Facebook Microsoft and Amazon. Push me to keep on studying and leet coding please! I need motivation and who knows maybe I'll see you this summer at a Facebook office!
For most coding jobs, the reasoning and determination used to study for the interview is more indicative of being good for the job than being able to come up with the solution completely on your own quickly. Building on existing infrastructure is far more important for innovation too
Joma is in NYC. Go there and dm him to do a collab. That would be so fun to see. Congrats btw
the only tech youtuber, which does not try to sell me a course, which is basically a rip-off of leetcode solutions
Man, I’m a second year Computer Science student based in Northern Ireland, your videos are absolutely beautiful. I see the absolute grind you’ve been on to get where you are today, this line of work requires sacrifices, you are inspirational. I can tell your good sense of humor is one of the keys to your success fella. You are at the minute, where I one day aim to be, but first, a discrete mathematics exam in January and my first work placement. We got this 💪🏻
Congrats Frying Pan!!!!! I had a similar experience this semester (hours everyday of Leetcode grinding) and also got an internship offer from Facebook on Nov 9th. Feels great to finally be out of the process and back to focusing on school, but I also kinda miss the nerves and excitement that I felt during the interview prep. I'll be at the Seattle office but maybe one day we'll run into eachother. Best of luck next summer!! Looking forward to your video next fall about your return offer.
Congrats! So glad to see someone with ADHD doing so well with this! I was once a “gifted” kid until I finally hit the ADHD plateau/wall and have been doubting myself ever since. This video gives me hope. 🙏🏾
I really loved hearing you being honest about feeling dumb and struggling with programming. My boyfriend also has ADHD and we constantly have to re-motivate ourselves to continue learning, he took various medications as a kid but didn't like how he felt on them and stopped. It's so refreshing to hear you succeed, congratulations and good luck on your internship! As for location, you can always move, you will learn more about yourself and what you like in either location.
tbh I can't blame him, in university you will waste a lot of time like really massive time studying for worthless courses instead of doing something will return benefits for you.
One step at a time, I'm sure you'll bounce back up from your midterm! Congratulations on the offer. I don't study CS but I still find you really inspiring :)
Congrats, as a CS student, I admire your hard-working. Beside, could you do some videos how about the CV or Resume which got you the intern?
"that's when I start praying to god, because I have no f**king idea..." o_o Motivated!!! Love you!
