yeah those would be good examples but also consider companies that aren't full on "technology" like healthcare, finance, etc... Huge companies like that can offer better compensation and working conditions, but you're gonna be a tiny cog in a machine. if you want something inbetween there are your 200 - 1000 employee type businesses that are always starving for talent. at that size you'll be doing way more work, you'll probably be paid less, but you'll have way more control over the company product if that's something that interests you. You wont have to deal with as much startupism at this level, but you'll also still probably need to figure out internal advancement on your own.

Pollyanna posted:that is true, though i feel the need to work with software engineers over just an "it department" - i'm not entirely sure why, i think it has to do with growth. maybe im misunderstanding/wrong all of the above. insurance too. Pollyanna posted:i'm more worried about whether they'll give me even a passing glance unemployment is so low right now that anyone with a pulse can get a job. If you have technical skills or you can show the desire and ability to learn you're gonna be above most applicants these days so don't worry about it. M

Pollyanna posted:also, what would you say is the typical time-to-new-job for an engineer? starting from unemployment i mean it will depend on where you are, but right now for the most part its gonna be pretty quick so just get out there and keep interviewing. you cant get a job if you aren't looking for one. stay positive and be confident when you interview.

nah junior devs usually don't know anything which is good if you're looking to train them properly, but bad if you don't have the resources to train them

Mao Zedong Thot posted:how tf do you graduate with a cs degree and be literally unable to program? did i accidentally go to a good school or something? maybe, but also consider unless you did a coop or side work you got paid for, you cant really judge your skills in the context of the real world. this is not a problem as nobody is expecting CS grads to know how to program irl. you goal should be to get somewhere that can mentor you and your mentor's goal should be to turn you from a time sink into a productive employee.

also new grads always want to reinvent every wheel instead of just using the appropriate library. you have to break them of that pretty quick.

Sapozhnik posted:java is 80% the same thing as c# except that java has a standard build tool that isn't idiotic and a third party open source library ecosystem that actually exists. so you can pick up java very quickly, you'll spend more time learning the ecosystem than the language. maven is really the only thing java has over c# these days.
