I thought it sounded like a good role speaking to my buddy who works in another department there. The way he described the role was completely different.
>All new network gear with a €10,000,000 budget
>Free reign to make infrastructure designs
>Total buy-in from all involved
>€250,000/yr (pre-tax) salary, as suggested by my buddy
I was pretty disappointed by the interview. Seems like there was a disconnect between the IT leadership and my buddy who works directly for the CEO. I have a comfy job already and do not need to change it. The salary is what attracted me the most if I'm being honest. After a few nights of sleeping on it, I don't want to deal with an uphill battle every day, which it would seem like if I worked for that guy I interviewed with.

Any ideas of things to improve in my department's frontend code? I'm a bit out of touch with the latest and greatest, everything seems good. We've got a react app, it uses redux, makes api calls to our backend java code, we've got microservices for certain smaller side projects and stuff that requires on the spot deployments. It all seems good. I'm a zoomer so I missed out on the big shifts from winforms to angular to react, and no one seems willing to make any big shifts since everyone loves react. Idk beyond people wasting time rebuilding the identical components from scratch instead of using/adding to a shared library I'm not sure what to suggest in a meeting next week.

Try and reach out to some European game companies and see if they have some tips.
Find some top leadership of some of the semi indi devs, like Paradox, CD Project or the Finnish Max Payne studio, and see if they could help you in any way.
These people made their own studio from the bottom up, and usually these kind of people are willing to help if you are able to get hold of them and respect their time.

I have worked in tech support engineering for 3 years and as a software dev for 1 and a half years.

How do I transition to recruiting? I did some deeper thinking the other day and I think I have more of an ability to see the potential of people, and think I should go this route.

Asking cause I see mostly jobs with the catch 22 experience requirement and I am not sure how to spin what I have already.

Also I want to prevent more pajeets too and do God's work. I know it's not completely possible but to prevent one or two of them from making it onto your teams would make my day.
>>

Tell him no and explain why
>>
>>102562894
this is an idealistic take on recruiting's purpose.

recruiters are front-line or second-line filters in a hiring pipeline. the folks who gauge "potential" are the ones doing the actual functional interviewing.

i would advise seeking some 1:1 time with a few recruiters or watch some youtube videos about what it's generally like.

be aware that in a downturn, recruiters get laid off first, too.

I have learned that dev is not for me since I don't fit in as much as I thought I would. If I would have gotten in 5 years ago, I would have felt better but now I work with younger Zoomers that are just assholes, and can't stand it.

I think I'm better of going back to tech support engineering roles to be happy again. At least then I could ask questions and help other people on my team.

The silo work makes it all meaningless. I had more joy when I would go back and forth on some dumb dev projects to make the support team's life easier than I ever did having to just get criticized on gay shit like unit tests.

I'm a backend dev with roughly 1 year of experience. Java and Spring Frameworks to be specific. The project's team lead (also the whole Java team's lead) is a huge bitch. She mistreats her subordinates, shouts at us for no reason, constant backbiting, etc etc.

The main problem is... After my last project ended around February, I've hardly been given any work. The bitch took me under her project, but continued to give me documentation work, creating/comparing Excel sheets, testing on UI the code other people wrote.

I'm beginning to forget what it even means to be a Java developer. I don't wanna go back to the starting point.

What do?

I am doing a 2 year internship/retraining as a system technician/system admin/help desk.

I got my own office notebook on which I was previously allowed to use for school or my hobby or for accessing Microsoft learn to slowly get into azure, entra, intune and other tools to prepare myself for more responsibility.

However, due to constant changes of the network I am in while using public transport, the VPN that automatically connects had to use a lot of licenses.

I am currently told I can't access the internet for now.
But all my shit depends on it.

Now, I don't know if that costs a lot or if it's due to some shitty config shenanigans, but I am losing two hours a workday on not being able to focus on what matters while I have to commute.

I am gonna contact the colleagues tomorrow and see what I can do in this frustrating situation, but I wanted to know what you guys thought about it.
Is that possible to at least incapacitate the VPN for these two hours in the train to make up the lost time?

Bro, I wouldn't even bother. HR is just as crazy where they have allowed some of the most unprofessional shit I have ever seen on emails, messages and overall throughout the place.

I have been looking to get out of here since February but that's because of an incident where a backend dev threatened to fight me near my desk when I kindly asked his team lead to just have more positive productive comments on PRs instead of the nasty negative and mean ones I've seen on mine for multiple PRs in a row but on no one else's. My boss didn't give two shits during a one on one and said to bring it up with HR, even though if he was worth anything, he would have done this automatically. That put the weird pressure for me to do it and I never did.

Mostly because they play favorites at my job and that guy was their golden boy.

Said faggot has since left but he's still friends with all dev team members so I just feel left out and alone since I can't bear to really want to be associated with that guy.

Hoping the next job's team isn't as toxic. Looking to leave dev for technical support engineering jobs again. At least on those teams I felt welcome.
>>
>>102563502
Well yeah because there is no one lower than white men in the hierarchy, lol.
>>
>>102563451
It is definitely gay config shit and it is also definitely the network admins fault for not planning for this edge case. Not your fault.
Someone was trying to save money by buying discrete licenses instead if a site license. This is precisely what the license-sellers wanted to happen.
>>
>>102563466
Yeah, I think they got lucky with me, since I am one of the few support / admin guys that actually enjoy coding in their free time and would love to try it out at the job if given the go.
This current situation makes me kinda seethe when I am supposed to make the best of an opportunity that requires participants to be good at time management with the compressed class schedule along with internship, but then I see two hours a workday taken away from my day.

I am not saying to be lazy but just watch Office Space and realize that the main guy figured out that it's not worth it to give a shit about what you do. It's pointless.

As long as you enjoy some parts of it, you're on the right track. But never truly 'care' about it. Hopefully that makes sense.

Did the same on all 4 of the interviews p much, about a B or B-, I got all of them right but needed an occasional poke in the right direction.

On the leetcode one I fucked up and started doing the wrong thing once or twice and had to rewrite my code, the interviewer had p negative feedback to me about not "having a plan" even though I explained what I was gonna do and asked if that sounded good to him.

If you have absolutely no experience with AWS you should start with Certified Cloud Practitioner. That way you can learn the basics about services exist and how IAM works before you worry about tackling how to handle the API.

>>102566260
As long as you know the material that'll be fine. The cert can help show you have some experience with the platform if you don't have any professional experience.

Anybody who interviews people know this is a non-issue other than CS programs often being kind of shitty and students not bothering to learn anything necessary for the actual job market.

I admit it can be hard to get your first real job because you lack any experience and your DSA course isn't applicable to actual work because it's 2024 and not 1984. If your CS program does not include internships then don't bother with it. You would genuinely be better off trying to build real applications and getting the shittiest job you can find for 2 years (the 2 years you should have spent in internships at better companies where you would have learned way more).

I understand the anti-corporate sentiment, believe me I'm with you. But candidates are just such shit that it's unbelievable. The number of abject technical interview failures I see is insane to me. I'm not even a good programmer. Our stock questions are so fucking easy and people still flub them completely and we have the nicest and most helpful, stress-free interviewers you can imagine. Surprise though, those candidates aren't the ones coming from known, quality university programs.
A CS degree from a rando uni CAN be helpful for sure, but unless you're making an effort on top of that to network, intern, get extracurricular experience it's going to be a hard sell to any company with a decent engineering department.

I'd advice not to do what I'm doing. I'm preparing everything to drop my 2 week notice next week and kiss goodbye to this shit company. I ran out of fucks to give and I don't care anymore. If you care about your job, you WILL get thrown under the bus if you pull this shit; that's also what I'm hoping for and maybe get some extra severance pay.

Yes. I work with Pajeets, and unironically, they are the nicest of my coworkers which is a bit sad.

I mean they sell drugs on darknet. How much less restricted do you need it?

The work required to basically build an untraceable global spy network seems like a lot. Might be easier to actually apply to the CIA, become a spy, and use that network to do random shit

it's not going to be ok. I'm not going to lie. But stop being a fucking retard. You are in second year, now is the perfect time to switch majors. Most of your gen ed and basic calc classes are required by every other program so you're not wasting much money if you switch majors NOW. Stop crying like a bitch and make a move, don't listen to the coping bag holders here, they'll say things will improve but we have absolutely no idea and this field is new enough that even things that seem "cyclical" may very well be unprecedented.

whether or not you switch majors it's absolutely vital that you network, make friends, and get some pussy. It's as important as your grades if not more, seriously.

i was like that and then i figured it out. a lot of people don't have it figured out especially at the age you're currently at, and then you figure it out and then everything is okay. don't catastrophize your situation, the sun will always come up the next day, etc.

>Surprise though, those candidates aren't the ones coming from known, quality university programs.

its bazaar that you state this and can not clearly see why your candidates suck. You only interview people from top unis, but they all suck. Its almost as if the liberal retard university complex has failed. Keep interviewing people from the liberal elite and complain...

I will now refer to anyone with a job as an engineer now, even if all they do is something like taking out the trash. Why? Because I can :)

>Being internal IT is pretty comfy tho.
God I had a nice internal IT job, been unemployed 8 months and have to go work for some bottom of the barrel MSP. I will be making 50k less than I use to. The glassdoor reviews are fucking awful but I gotta start bringing some fuckin money in. My biggest problem is I just haven't been lying enough or maybe my pesonality is gay. I have no idea. I could throw a rock in 2020-2021 and get hired anywhere 90-120k. I made it to so many final round interviews for decent jobs and just got passed on. Though not even sure if the job was real. I have 12 yrs exp, degree, certs. Day of the rope is coming.

Spent this week daydreaming about licking my female engineer coworkers buttholes.

Have the day off today and I'm at an Asian massage parlour about to get a massage and a happy ending
Happy ending engineers are closer to real engineers than software "engineers"

That is exactly why people should return to office. It's inefficient as fuck. People complain "but I'd be on huddles all day anyways" no idiot you wouldn't you're team would no longer be scattered

Not meetings, calling around about what does what and why setting up screen sharing inviting others to look at it. Developer stuff. And it used to take few steps to next desk to walk through.

>>102563154

I did for the first 5 years. Then that job went to shit. Every job I have had after that for the last 5 years has eventually gone to shit. Nothing good last for ever. Its only a mater of time until it crumbles.

I too look forward to the day I can retire from this rat race.

I even had tards from a previous shit company working where I am now, and they are trying to bring a jeet manager on to shit the place up more. If they hire him I am done.

>I am not an engineer, I don't so engineering
Maybe you don’t. Some of us do.
Wikipedia defines engineering as:
> Engineering is the practice of using natural science, mathematics, and the engineering design process to solve technical problems, increase efficiency and productivity, and improve systems.
Designing a system to be resilient in the face of natural disasters that cripple an entire data center, or systems that can process millions of requests per second, systems used to securely remotely monitor and control a fleet of IoT devices, etc. are just a few examples of software systems that most certainly involve real engineering. Just because your job involves building web UIs and CRUD apps running on a web server doesn’t mean that’s every software job. But I concur a lot of people that call themselves software engineers are in fact little more than software developers.

There are software engineers out there, I would say most software developers are not engineers. But what brothers me is that people who manage Google email accounts and click on stuff in AWS call themselves an "engineer", since there is nothing relates to engineering about those jobs.
Is someone that works at H&M folding cloths a clothing engineer, or a chef a food engineer. Of course not. So I find the title "cloud engineer" almost offensive.
But then again, that's why "civil engineer" or "professional engineer" are usually a protected title and just "engineer" is usually not.

I'm looking for advice here anons. I've been working as frontend web dev for almost 5 years and I'm tired of it. Most of the time it's boring and I don't really like working with designers. I want to migrate to full stack or backend, but I'm not sure what language should I learn backend with. Going with JS allows me to focus on the actual backend stuff since I already know JS pretty well, then I could simply migrate this knowledge to another language if I have to.
