kind of

i think the main issue is the lack of foresight and the propensity to pursue immediate gratification

exactly

like how soon do you think it will be before college numbers drop more because people want to be "youtube or twitch" famous?

rn

it's going to be more significant in the next 2-3 years

how hard is it to get into google, microsoft, yuotube or fb

not at all

?

i thought it was hard af

but google is tough because they're super into sjw stuff

i had a better time at yahoo

whats sjw

social justice warrior

gotya

identity politics

that stuff

regardless, i thought they're known to be hard af to work at

to get into those places, it's about who you know and how you know them

like u need perfect grades, and talent

oh - so say you dont know anyone

how hard is it then

i only got my job at google doing validation engineering because i used to smoke weed and do shrooms with one of the department managers

lol

i don't have a degree, but i have the experience

but not enough to make me stand out

at yahoo, it's because i used to play fighting games with the site director

yeah - how hard would it be for me to get an internship at one of those companies? i've got decent grades

damn thats interesting

internships are tricky because at those places they do put you in a very shit lpace

almost like you're typecasted

as in you'll only get "intern" type work

whats the process like to get in

and they'll dangle the carrot of "full time employee" in front of you to get you to do shit work with shit hours

true - i dont think i even want to work at any company because my dream is to freelance for a living - but the interview process sounds fun

if you say so

lol

i think that if you look at it as a free game it's fun

i enjoy problem soloving

you should watch "silicon valley" it's almost a 100% accurate representation of those aforementioned companies

no i meant the interviewing part
