What NOT to do as a new engineer: message everyone on the team "What did you get done this week?"

@aldrinseanpereira140

that cold start algorithm is something I have never heard of anywhere else. top tier advice šŸ™ŒšŸ¼

@mcanu667

Yeah, the Cold Start Alg. is OP. I saw it in action from both sides: as a new joiner and a person already working on a team. Apart from getting you up to speed, it also establishes a connection between team members. It makes it easier psychologically to ask questions later and for other people to reach out to you. 

From myself, I would add - be generous and sincere with compliments. If somebody takes their time and shows you around the codebase, helps you with something, etc. Praise them during standup (or your communicator/kudos channel). I mean they've actually helped you, so it is not only a nice thing to do (they will be more eager to help you in the future), but also it gives them some leverage when talking with their manager about mentoring. It really builds the team and your manager will notice this too,

been binge watching your content. still can't believe this is all free. i'm learning so much. ty šŸ‘Œ

Rip to the people who came into a company/internship with a non existent onboarding process. The one I am in did not have one and I wasn't given good tickets to work on so I learnt little in the first 2 months. I was given inconsistent bugs which is very difficult, especially as a intern. It's getting better now as I'm getting features to work on. In hindsight I should've asked for a feature early on. 

Next time I find an internship or job I will ask about their development processes to make sure they do things right new hire wise.

Honestly, these videos aren't software engineering videos but professional guidance videos. If I had some of this knowledge at the start of my mechanical engineering career, I could have avoided so many blunders

@snehalmane

Joining a team for my first ever project so this video dropped at the perfect time! Thanks!

@SoftwareJournal

Came through to tell you your thumbnail is exceptional, sir! šŸ‘šŸ¾

@jaskaranvirdi6622

Thanks Rahul! This is incredible advice. The two bucket approach and cold start are something I wish I knew earlier in my career.

@dathuynh9772

Big thanks for the video since Im about to start a new job.

@zb2747

Never heard of the cold start algorithm - thanks for the advice! Peace and much love brother!

@aseemsharan

Would like to see a video on how a software engineer working in Infrastructure org compares to a Software Engineer working in a Product org.

Their works are slightly different. Product has more of APIs and using different tools. Infrastructure is more focused on distributed systems and scaling of their apps. They're the ones who make the tools, more focused on C++ rather than creating web apps  (IMO).


And how the career of both these Software Engineers differ.

@nishantjha9848

I think the transitions detract a bit from the content. Consider toning them down/going for something more elegant

@tech3425

Nice to get a look inside these thought processes

@THEMATT222

Interesting šŸ¤”

I needed to hear this

Thanks Rahul

@harman_74

Hi Rahul,  I wanted to ask you if Iā€™m looking to be a software engineer,  is it enough to only know the JavaScript programming language or do I have to also know Python?
