    Wow, this was so much fun...as someone who has been struggling to pay attention to anything lately and constantly skipping huge chunks of every video I encounter, I can't believe I watched this until the end without even realizing it. You are a very entertaining person! please continue making content lol

    It's truly a piece of art. It may seem funny when you look back, but it is actually thoughtful. The story of being lost and making a fish your buddy is quite thoughtful. The camera angles and background music choices are creative, making the first shot. Overall, it's sooo creative and cool. I hope you make more when you feel like it :DD

    Great video! I'm also currently in the same situation and im relieved that im not alone and someone else was also in the same situation, hearing you succeed is bringing back my motivation to keep applying. Really nice style of video compared to all the 4 minutes 10 minutes video on youtube, super informative and realistic. Thanks for sharing your story.

    Why does no one want to go through an interview as a junior? I think you have to act naturally as you are (even crack a joke) after all, the person who is going to interview you is just another person. The problem with recent graduates is that they have the vision of superiority with others, I imagine it is because of so many years of homework/grades. I think being natural and a good person counts more.

    Struggling with the idea of a resume. I just transferred to my Uni as a junior with an AA but I have 0 coding experience up to this point. I feel like theres nothing I can put on my resume other than my retail jobs XD. You dont have to go into details but how "filled out" was your resume? In the past month or two Ive been GRINDING in c completing a couple easy and medium leet code questions, can I even put c proficiency lol, I love the idea of networking but I also dont want to prematurely put out a bad rep for myself

    jayK is the GOAT. My parents told me if I don't get an internship after my sophomore year of college is over, I had to work full-time at McDonald's. I dropped everything I was doing and started grinding to get a job. It was the month of January and I HAD no experience, NO resume, and I had NO professional speech mannerisms. BUT, every night I would make 30+ resumes had 10 other people review them, applied to 1-3 companies every night, practiced behavioral and technical questions. By the end of April, I had 8 out of 150 companies asked me to have an interview with them. I BS MY WAY THROUGH ONE OF THE INTERVIEWS always keeping a calm demeanor but acting knowledgable and managed to get an internship from them. Then I had my last interview with a big company near the end of April and got an offer from them as well REMOTE! Moral of the story is to never give up and its never too late to start applying don't push it off to tomorrow. Good Luck Everyone!
