As someone in FAANG, this is cool to see. I've been in office from 2013-2020, and coming back to office has been a unique experience. I appreciate WFH and WFO
@@maestreiluminati87 I'd say it depends on what team/role you're looking to join. Honestly, there are TONS of entry level spots that are almost too easy, but then some on other teams that the bar isn't consistent. We/they typically do an online assessment first, followed by a phone screen, then a loop. As long as you keep your compsure/walk through your implementations it's not too difficult.
The office looks so great Shawn. And amazing how you could dress casual at work too! May I just say that you are definitely practicing work life balance. :)
Your video brings lots of memories. I had the pleasure of being to LinkedIn HQ to record my courses for LinkedIn Learning. It is a beautiful campus/facilty! The food menu is unbeatable. The people whom I got to work with are super nice. I look forward to going back there someday soon. Thanks for sharing and all the best!
This is pretty similar to my days going into the office. My team hired lots of folks remotely during the pandemic, so I basically go into the office and end up sitting alone / calling into meetings the same way I would if I were at home. The office amenities are definitely nice, but idk if they're worth the idle time from 8:30-9:30, which is usually my most productive hour of the day at home.
Dream bigger, I used to be like you, I thought fang was the dream, but they're just companies like any other. And a lot of them are demanding especially on critical roles. Just find a chill company that'll pay you well
So Portugal is really something else, i wake up to be at the office by 8am and then from that time till 13:00/13:30 thats when we have lunch and then we get out at around 17:00, i guess u can clearly see that Portugal is slacking on the paycheck as this man is working half my time and receiving probably 5 to 10 times more than i am xDD Great video thou, i loved to see the differences is office space, and also got some tips from the video too
Really like the vid but wish the shots exploring the office were slower and more stable. For a lot of people FAANG and similar offices are of interest. Looking forward to future videos :)
That seems like a nice short day. I'm not a software engineer, but we generally have a problem in the UK with working hours which actually leads to worse productivity in many cases.
I have Bachelor's in agriculture .My degree is like 10 light yrs away from Computer Science but I am Learning How to Code...Hope one day I'll make to any good Company ..👍
Hey Shawn, LinkedIn employee here. Big fan of your Ember tutorial. We are playing basketball every Tuesday and Thursday noon at encinal park? Want to join?
Senior Engineer at LinkedIn is actually just a Software Engineer 2 at other companies like Google, Amazon, Facebook. So actually the next level "Staff Software Engineer" at LinkedIn is equivalent to Senior at FAANG
@@Rachman01 I agree. From my experience the narrower your field is, the faster you are considered to be a senior. PS: Obviously disregarding points such as programming-, communication- and other crucial skills. In the end those should be the most important factors to measure seniority.
Hi mr.shawn, nice to meet you on this platform,I request an advise from you, my name is Sri I am 31yrs old I have completed my graduation in aeronautical engineering and worked 5yrs in aviation maintenance industry due to this pandemic I lost my job recently and forward I am looking to switch my career in to IT/programming field now I want to start this from scartch and request you to suggest where to start and what language to learn as per current market trends request your suggestions
Depends on which track you want to go, if you like to do something visually, try to be a front-end engineer and learn Javascript, otherwise try to learn Python or Java
Mean while at a real job all food is to be paid for, your working in 100 degree plus, 2 15 min breaks and 1 30 min and dont be excited to go home because you may have to work a 12.
Hi! Thanks for the video! Do you go to the office out of choice, or are you required to go in? The office looks pretty empty. It looks like you don't have a desk that is your own specifically, but just pick any random workspace?
@@branquitodemunze but why are u upset about him doing whatever he wants? If the guy wants to wear a fuckin mask then just let him wear the fuckin mask...
Ok. So to be completely transparent I know NOTHING about anything pertaining to this job. How difficult is coding and anything pertaining to your job. How happy are you? What are the pros and cons? Would you have taken a different route if you went back in time?
Is 7 hours pretty normal for most of the engineers at LinkedIn? Or you think that comes with being a senior SWE and having a stronger grasp of the work?
Guys please answer me please 🙏 l am an arbic guy from sudan 🇸🇩 in Africa l am student at low level . in the future l wanna be software developer but me problem is English language me English is so bad l need to know if me English is bad or not l will be better in coding or not
This is why so many companies are cutting the fat now and firing so many people. I counted less than 3 hours of actual work and 2 hours of meetings probably clocking in over $200k doing nothing. Meanwhile I work from home and in Job 1 work a straight 8-9 hours and I'm lucky if I can take many break even though my kitchen is in spitting distance. Job 2 is 3-5 hours with a 5 minute break. I see these videos and I get pissed off because I'm the one that picks up the slack while these guys drink lattes and play basketball all day
yes this is definitely the day in the life of software enginer, when your backlog is almost empty :D
thank you for the clause
😂
What is baclog ? Meaning
@@Basseloob backlog contains the task that assigned to developer's
You're right man!
As someone in FAANG, this is cool to see. I've been in office from 2013-2020, and coming back to office has been a unique experience. I appreciate WFH and WFO
How hard was it to get into FAANG? Ik it's hard but how hard was it for you

Can anyone tell me what this senior developer does at linkedin because linkedin is already a working website so what do they do?
@@vacate81 lmao
@@vacate81 are you serious ?
The office looks so great Shawn. And amazing how you could dress casual at work too! May I just say that you are definitely practicing work life balance. :)
Yooo watching this vid was a blast into the past. I worked at LinkedIn right as COVID hit and offices shut down. Great to see it opening back up
Did you quit or something?
@@girlanonymous Yea I did
It seems that "a day in the life of a software engineer" is a UA-cam genre by itself

Great video Shawn! love the ending with the cats.
Thanks for the video! I start my new position as a software programmer in January… I’m so nervous.
You got this!
That's paradise, in Vietnam we do totally different, so busy and so stressful all day :D :D
Don't worry, this isn't a typical American's workday!
Seniors IT engineers in California usually have comfortable salaries but the cost of living over there is crazy😦
the best thing in these kind of videos are the free food they get
Play basketball: play for 30 seconds just for the video
This called work life balance, I work for 12-14 hrs daily & there is no concept of stretch break as such🤷🏽♂️
You are cycled. If you would one day want to leave the LinkedIn, you will end up on LinkedIn again during finding a new job. :D
One day I’ll get a job at a big company and make a video like this too 🥲 y’all inspire me a lot !!!!!!

your ember tutorials saved me last summer !
This is every Indian IT workers' wet dream
Wow such a great place to work
And glad to know you like Indian food 🤩
Ah it’s refreshing to see you’re back at the office! Great video ☺️
Its great you like indian food
The food choices for me were what I wanted to know the most.
It gets lonely, doesn't it? That's why two adorable cats, isn't it?
Hey brother..nyc video....its hapy to see you like out food culture..keep it up..
So, 2.5 hours of actual work in a day. How can I get that job?
Have good soft skills (more managerial opportunities) and work at a company that doesn’t need to push their SDE’s for a full 40 hours.
Your day is great!

@Entomolgy How's the coding journey going ?
You have to wear a mask at desks and in meeting rooms alone? Surely it makes far more sense to WFH at this point...
I wish I can get to this level someday, one day. I will
This is the work life I want bro… struggling in cs at university just tryna get like u one day. Btw if I lived in Cali I’m giving u buckets in 🏀
Great video Shawn, love it.
WELCOME TO INDIA 🇮🇳😇🙏
THAT LOOKS GREAT - the nan and meat was so niceeeeee
top de mais o video! parabéns pela sua dedicação e sua jornada
I already now that i want to work for Linkedin. My goal now!
Lovely video! short and simple

wow, hope one day I will be the one sharing these kinds of videos
I love to see some piece of code you do next time just a sec snap is enough!! 😀
Such beautiful offices exist in developed country we don’t have fans in some offices
Nobody talking about how he just could have almost the same with WFH :D
yes but it's still different working in an office than at home even when all meetings are online. Plus they have unlimited food at the pantry
@@guycom99 Yes, different -> better 😅
Unlimited food with 200k base salary, come on...
Good to see you like Indian food! watching you from india feels very nice
4.30 PM off-work in china is not possible ....... we have 996 work time !!! 9am - 9pm, every weak work 6 days .salary is 3000usd
Same her in Syria by the salary 150 usd
I dont get why engineers keep moving up and down every hour.
In at 9:30 out at 4:30. During which you work 2 hours. Man what a life.
He didn't take bath. He is the real programmer 😂😂
How many years did you spend as a junior SWE before moving to senior SWE and how did you go about it? You look young and great video :)
Good question.
Usually 3-5 years is “senior” at most tech companies.

your cats are so cooool!!!!!!!!!!!
The cat leaning on your hand is cute🙂
too good to be true.
It's a great office. How do you applied in linked as a software engineer and what is the interview process in LinkedIn?

You love Indian food and being an Indian I love your content Shawn👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻
That part..Indian food..I totally loved it.
Love from india brother 😁
2:41 Glad to know .... best wishes from an Indian ...,,
День сурка, блин. Нахрен надо😱😱😱
Great video
Nice
Hey Shawn. Nice office and really liked your taste for Indian Food. BTW, who takes care of your pet when you are for WFO?
Auto cat food feeder + Auto cat water fountain 😊
Awesome video
Notice how he never looks at the keyboard! Wow
Love from India.
Which Indian food do you like the most??
3 hours of coding and they pay I guess over 300k for him. Business is good.
He seems as a senior
500k
300k a month?
Your cats are adorable.
But why wear a mask when you're alone or even outside playing ball?...
because he is an idiot? he shouldn't wear it at all, even non alone, stupid covid propaganda
@@branquitodemunze but why are u upset about him doing whatever he wants? If the guy wants to wear a fuckin mask then just let him wear the fuckin mask...

It depends on teams, but LinkedIn does have very good work life balance
The envious eyes from Chinese coders 👀 We Chinese working over 12hrs a day and still working on Saturday 😖
Hmmmmm
This seems too good to be true! I code for 8 hours per day. But I don't work at LinkedIn
Background music like Dr driving 🤣
Indian Food 🍱😋😘🥰
Why linkedin does not include MAANG ?🤔
I just got depressed watching this... it seems like a lonely world out there... nonetheless I have to do it!!!
So... apart from the free food and whitebooard, why did you go in? You could have done everything from home?
Create a vid on how you got in
So perfect. The fact that you don’t have to dress formerly
Just like a dream
Didn't LinkedIn used to have a 3v3 basketball tournament? Who won it? Did that team happen to win it in back to back years??? ;)
keep it up bro....lots of love from INDIA ❤️❤️
Literally, nobody does his works, everyone is in the kitchen.
I work at Mc Do. I have to bring or buy my own lunch.
Can u show us what u have been coding all along ? 🧐
20 min drive to work? Free snacks? What planet is this?

You wont be able to test anything if you dont have one LOL

I have a question, please
what should I type in position if I am a fresh graduate?
