I'm Aman Manazir, a software engineer and former computer science student. I make videos about technology, productivity, and study skills. I post new videos regularly, a new article (manazir.org/articles) occasionally, and run an email newsletter (manazir.org/newsletter).
Good Video but some kids don’t have the opportunity to do an unpaid internship during summer or just work on leetcode because they have to pay for their school fees. Recognize your path and privilege and understand there isn’t one right way to obtain this goal.
on point
you are utterly and eternally cringe
Great Video, as a current Junior at the University of Minnesota, with a SWE internship inbound for Summer. This will be my 2nd internship, and my first in SWE.
Getting started early is huge. But don’t be too discouraged, it’s still possible. This is an unforgiving industry after all. I really began grinding sophomore year.
In my experience the most important things that got me my internships:
- Make friends with academic and career forward mindsets. You’ll all learn so much from each other and be able to expedite your learning about classes, industry and career readiness. This helps you stay in the news about industry standards.
- Update Resume Weekly
- Apply Constantly
- Student Orgs
- Personal Projects
I just started my freshman year at UW-Madison. Currently enrolled in CS300, can't express how useful your advice is for me. Thank you!
Hey i noticed that you are already in UW Madison so I would like ask you the question and know your opinion on:
I have an offer letter from UW Madison but i am confused on whether to got for it or not, i am thinking about Texas A&M (college station) and UW Madison. It would be great if you could give your opinion on that it would really help me choose..... (I am going for fall 2024)
Thanks for all the informative info Aman! I'm inspired by your journey and hope to replicate it in 2024 as someone who is on the infrastructure side in tech but wants to become a SWE.
I played the game and won the game. It was a lot of fun. I loved working in corporations. I collected a lot of great friends along the way. Now, I am working remote projects out of my home office in semi-retirement. Yay!!!
@Amanmanazir I am a fresher man CS at the university of Nigeria your videos gives me insight on how to walk my through CS thank you 😊
I really appreciate this video, I was already on the road to get an internship and this video just solidified it even more
Please make more videos around CS for college students and for career, they're really informative and useful!
More coming soon!
Amazing and such pragmatic advice. CS sophomore at UW Madison here.
As a junior who just got their first internship this year, I wish I was more proactive as a freshman and sophomore to better prepare myself lol. I grinded last summer doing a lot of tech industry programs, so I think that helped. I'm also hoping that I do well enough in my internship to get a new grad rto (fingers crossed)
Any tips for a freshman?
Great advice! As a freshman in college, would you say I should focus more on personal projects or leetcode?
Explain every thing perfectly.
I'm studying Applied Maths Aman and I'm in my freshman year of college is it possible for me to get software engineering internships
Also, question, do you have any resources in mind for mock interviews? Online or otherwise?
This comment is really late, but it was great meeting you Aman! Happy to give a referral to TikTok anytime haha 🙏
Thanks a lot
good information ima study computer science as well
All the best!
Great video but horrible take about the students that work a full time job during the summer. It is easy to see you are quite privileged
He’s earned his privilege, having done 5 internships as a student which is a testament for extremely hard work. And he’s talking about students who don’t even try to get (technical) work that’s relevant to their major, who have likely partied and wasted their academic year without applying for internships, and then have to settle for an unrelated job.
@@NeptuneTalesyou don’t really earn privilege so your point doesn’t really make sense
Agreed
@@NeptuneTalessome people just don’t accomplish things as quickly to land an internship, especially in the tech world. or they arent as privileged living off of daddys money.
@@NeptuneTalesPrivilege isn’t earned bud
Hey i really liked the video. I have an offer letter from UW Madison but i am confused on whether to got for it or not, i am thinking about Texas A&M (college station) and UW Madison. It would be great if you could give your opinion on that it would really help me choose..... (I am going for fall 2024)
making allies part hit me
i had my bachelor when i was 20 years old but i am still broke i guess it depends on the country you are in
I am in 12th standard in india now
I want to take admission in UW in CS branch.
Could you please tell me the fee structure???
Begin with the end in mind is how you should approach your job. Monitor them closely and read their annual reports. You'll know when to bounce!
Hey Aman, I think the title is sorta misleading (not in a negative sense) and it would be way better if it reflected the amazing advices you gave.
Some people just live in areas where tech profiles are not needed.
2:19 ahh yeah, the back-pedalling bicycle
You're reading Dune! I know you're a great guy now!!
I don't why I laughed hard when he said his brother, Ado asked him "Doesn't everybody get Google?"😂
How I can do that I am interested to stay computer
Thanks for showing your degree. I like to see the result of hard work.
Jeez you have grown so much!
When you started, you were the typical skinny Indian, that pray 5 times a day to LeetCode xD
Look at you now!
A software engineer, buff, the Software engineer Giga Chad! Haha!
I got the chance to study Ai from Madison, it was super cool!
Wow, great job!
I still have two years left, so hopefully, I can see you on the side!
Cheers!
I want to become everything online instead of physical.becauae it takes four years and wasting of time
Everyone is playing checkers bro is playing 7D Chess
Dune!!!
4-6 months to make that jump, and he did it in less than a year?? I assume you meant 4-6 years
Yep I meant years, easy mistake :D
Thanks Bro 🙏
And regarding your Notion coding notes and others which you said you will share once you reach 50K subscribers.
Humble request if you can make it paid whatever nominal amount 😊 , so we students can purchase it .
Because 50K subscribers we are not sure when its going to happen . Hence requesting you to share it making it paid for purchase 🙏
The notes are already linked for free in the video's description.
@@OpheliaSin1 Thank you for leaving your comment 🙏 and helping me out .
Yes i got the notes now😊
Do you know any idea where the coding notes are for the leetcode , i can see only coding template, but no notes on it .
@@RameshKumar-ng3nf I don't think he has notes for leetcode. I can see his class notes though.
save
@@OpheliaSin1 Okay, Thanks
first!
How you got your degree?
Online?
When covid hit, most colleges/universities went online.
It's save gas money
@@sukapow i want all universities become online i really don't wanna wasting someone time like mine
@@Dataabc you don't really....
The big advantage of going to a university is the "network"
If your university is filled with smart and talented people then people can create a company inside of a university like Facebook and Google did. You just need a good idea
@sukapow I haven't seen all these that you are talking about.
@@Dataabc it's just takes two or more good people to make a successful company but many college students are fantasizing about getting a six figures job but so they're grinded leetcodes meanwhile they're tuition is like over 80k in many universities lol meanwhile if you are paying 80k for 4-6 years then you might as well buy a house lmao since buying a house isn't impossible in most of the majority of people (middle-low class)
Hey sound like he dont know the struggle of real life
Useful for new CS students
