    Jeff Bezo said “We’re not going to raise our prices.” Amazon prices are thru the roof on so many products. Not to mention the excessive costs charged to the third party sellers. which is passed on to the customers.

    @jinaligala92 Před 29 dny

    Thank you for your questions. Halfway through the video, I got disinterested because it primarily focused on "what not to say" rather than providing specific examples or scenarios that illustrate what hiring managers typically expect. As a candidate, it would be helpful to see more examples to better understand how to effectively prepare myself for the hiring process.

    The "you are right one" is my favorite. It is often misunderstood. It doesn't mean you assert your (potentially wrong) opinions. It means you seek the truth, listen to others, and admit when you are wrong.

    I graduated as an EE in the 90s in Romania; one who can pass such entrance exams or Gaokao or IIT will have no problem at these interviews (CS based); You can pass these interviews by cramming. After more than 7 years as a SWE in Mountain View, I can tell you how little correlation is between passing the interviews and being a good engineer later on the job. Hopefully LLMs will help this in the future. For example most problems on Leetcode can be solved by LLMs (tuned for programming). Thank you for the great work and help you are providing.

    To sum up the hiring experience as being a nice reliable genuine person managers wont hire you because they know the team will like you more than them and will gain an upper hand in communication compared to a manager that receives fake respect or admiration this is a reality they know and which is why they dont like more charismatic positive people

    This reminds me of my very own experience. I would say it’s kind of difficult for me to write down the questions on the spot as I might be too nervous so what I did is to repeat the questions myself or ask the interviewer to repeat which was definitely worthwhile as I used that time to think of which LPs they were trying to ask.

(2) If we did not have ownership to the project, and lack of numbers to illustrate past contributions/ achievements, how can we present our impact of work as part of the team?
