"I'M NEETCODE GODDAMMIT"
Mega chad
🦍
same thing I thought.
Sorry, I guess by definition this *is* a humble brag, but I still thought it was worth sharing.
I mean, how else am I gonna remind you guys that I use to work at Google?
true
It's fine. Most of the life story clips are gonna be humble brags, that's why we're here
Love it
Humble brag or not this was helpful. Working at Google and looking to get promoted this year
Rule 1. Never forget to mention Google
Rule 2. Never forget Rule 1
it works tho, channel was pretty unknown until google was mentioned
Yes,but he wasn't completely positive about it.
Smile fades away from junior to midlevel
babe wake up
it's a new neetcode story time
You’re really relatable, which is why I watch your videos. Right on
I really appreciate your honesty. Some people just completely ignore the luck factor. I believe in today’s it plays a huge part.
I loved this. As someone in my first year as a swa this is great for me.
Great story! Thank you for sharing this!
Man, I'm proud of this random dude. That was some good insight, thank you!
One thing I learned from working in tech: Reflection addiction
Doing stuff gave me feedback, it was my job to interpret as much of that as I could, and reflect on it
Cool story! I was expecting that you'd be extinguishing all kinds of alerts and weird bugs for the following weeks, rolling back and rerolling infinite times. Neet job making it work from the first try!
Great video - Thanks for sharing
great story!! Keep it up!!
Nice insight 👍🏻
As a new member, the balance of what question to ask and to not ask is the no.1 challenge throughout my career
Thanks fam!
Going through same shit and I want to quit.
Not giving up anymore ... :-)
Sometimes( a lot of times actually) will is as important as technical skills
Crazy that a junior engineer was able to complete a legacy service migration with an independence. When I look back to my first job out of college, I didnt know what an API was, what a microservice was, what a monolith was, I didn't even know how to use GIT. None of those things are taught in school and leetcode didn't either.
Where are u from?
Which uni and how long ago
TBH that doesn’t sound right even for a junior
Good that you acknowledge your luck.
He's that guy. Goat
You're a great speaker. How did you learn to do this?
I'm interviewing now and this sounds like a perfect story to share during an interview.
Awesome, love a good neetcode story, thanks for sharing
Nice breakdown. I can tell about my Google experience: Joined as junior. Team is pretty competent but stuck running extremely fragile system in prod (fires everywhere, touching stuff is scary, infra keep getting deprecated forcing lot of migrations). First project is a manager's pet project that was never feasible, I have nothing to show after 6months. Manager quits after 9 months. I still don't have a project and now under a new manager, I'm stuck doing tedious cleanup that nobody wants to do for another 6 months. 16 months and I have nothing to put towards promo. Finally get assigned to a 2 person project with L6, but I'm able to contribute pretty much equally. 26 months in my Google career, the project is pretty much done (and good quality) but it's not launching because of politics. I still haven't launched anything and quit b/c I'm a little depressed and feel that promo is impossible.
What is your work setup? chair, table & mic etc
Any advice for someone whose degree taught them R, works as a database engineer using SQL Python and Java (Talend) for ETL, trying to get into full stack development/systems?
Well said. I am neetcode. God damn. Oftentimes, I said the same things to myself.
Do you have plans to go back working in a corporate setting?
"I was actually able to deliver that project, by the grace of God." 😁
did u do a lot of googling and copying and pasting and searching stack overflow?
What does design doc at Google look like?
First Comment
Always wanted to do this 😂
Cool story, Do a honest roadmap story without adds for self-taught developers.
Grace of god indeed!
What tool is he using to draw on the screen?
so when is it good to ask for help and when not to?? what about those times u don’t ask for help and cant do it independently?
Hey! I was plannning to make my own Load Balancer as a project. Could you provide me with some guidance. I'm Appplying for SDE-1 jobs and felt like this would be a nice project
Can someone please what tool he is using for the sketching
What does he use for board drawing
Is that guy is Techlead ?
You are very talented. Why dont you use your software skills on solving humanity s most important problems such as energy, food, water and diseases?
Good point. But if I can teach CS concepts to 10 people, maybe those 10 people will go on to solve those problems. I feel in this position I can be a positive multiplier.
@@NeetCodeIOGood one ❤
My friend joined Tesla Energy as a SWE last year, switching from data analyst to SWE by following this channel. Totally agree with the positive multiples
9:37 for TL;DW
based
the fact that you only where doing leetcode for a year is so crazy to me
it explains a lot about whats wrong w me
Jr dev: afraid to ask questions
Manager: you're so independent
> gets work done without asking questions
That’s the main part 😅
But there's also a guy who back up as you said in the video
If you have the will, how can you possibly fail?
They had blocking code at Google? Seriously? At Google?
Got promoted and then left Google.
Ultra Ultra Chad.
you got promoted in a year then left after a few months?
yeah its more common than you might think to leave after promo
