Never understood jobs that have entry level positions but it says you have to have experience😂. That would make no sense. The job isn’t entry then.
That’s an employer’s wish list, just like when they ask us about our desired salary, I aim higher than what I really want, so they pay me what I want 😉
Exactly.
I got my first tech position as a graduate intern after three years work experience. 😂😂
How do you have “no experience” but you’re a cs major at a very reputable school? You also had other internships. Very misleading
Just what i was about to say
"Go to the Career Fair" yes yes yes. I always tell people to do this when they ask me how to get into FAANG. I literally got my FAANG job through a career fair back in 2014 :)
Nice
where do u even find those fairs?

affirmative action hire lmao
back in 2014.
This was such a good overview of the basics of getting a software internship for people just getting started, thank you so much!
Super Useful. Thanks : )
i found this video 15 hours after it was uploaded, you're godsent! thank you for the great advice!
I saw the title and thought to myself - since when did Internships require experience. The very purpose of an internship is to provide experience to students
This video was very helpful, thank you!
really love your video. good advice.
I was searching for a video that helps me getting an internship in my junior year. Ended up taking life lessons that completely changed my mindset, and will have a great impact on my future. Thank you
awesome video as always :)
This is a great video. Nobody wants to say they’re family or friends are the reason they got a job, but in reality that is the case for MANY people
This video is not good. He's constantly iscouraging people from applying to big name companies. LOTS of companies have programs that target freshman and sophomores. He's unaware. Also, how come people shouldn't apply for big name companies? No one should tell no to themselves, its the recruiters job.
Good video as usual, hope this blows up soon
Love your videos, did you ever upload your notion templates?
I am a senior with minimal experience related to tech besides school courses. I am struggling to find an internship or a co-op and am becoming worried about my situation. Am a little lost right now
You're not alone. I am on the same page, but I have been self teaching myself to code outside of school. All I really have for myself are personal projects and no internships. I am nearing my final semester and sweating buckets.
Me too.. I am worried that I have gotten my degree for nothing but personal work. I have 1 more semester until I graduate and I have only been able to get one interview. Someone told me that looking for online work is kind of pointless and that I should be looking for an in person job that's local.
@@greenleaph5145hi bro! What's your situation saying now? Did you get an internship?
Thank you!
Thankyou Aman
Heyy Aman, Actually I require JavaScript in my internship, and I am currently struggling with it. If you, please share you Notion notes about it. It would really benefit me immensely. Thanks
I really needed some advice like this thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!

Nice Vid!
I got asked to send my resume to an IT company and I dont have a portfolio on git yet. What do I do?
You said things that I know I needed to hear, but didn't want to, a good man, thank you, commenting is all I can do, since I can't reach out to you personally, but if someday I can, I will make sure to bagger you with tons of questions, so much that you have to tell me to go away because you'll have to be somewhere or you'll run out of time😂. Looking forward for some genuine progress.

Could you share your resume without personal or sensitive details? It would help me to have a structure to make my own. Thanks and keep making these helpful videos. Daniel.
Just posted a video on it :D - czcams.com/video/RJmKrb_QJA8/video.html
im currently entering my senior year of highschool, can i do this?
I got my actually skipped the internship and went straight to entry-level just by sending a simple “cover letter” along with my resume, and I was still in school.
So you reached out to them first? Or did the company have a role open and you applied with the role
@@edboss36 They had a open role. And, then sent a cover letter along my resume expressing interest.
@@snoopie51 nice👍
what happened later?

This video's pretty good.
7:28 I dont know why but this part REALLY resonated with my left ear 😂
What questions do I badger people with? Whenever I’m in that position my mind goes blank…
You’ll want to mainly ask about their journey and background-so if someone mentions they interned at a specific company, ask them about the interview process, how they got the 1st interview, what prior work experience have they done, etc.
And if they mention anything surprising or counterintuitive, make sure you ask clarifying questions and dive into it.
Holy I love your personality. I'm going to start my grind, do you think it's possible to get some internship before college starts? I'm going to India over the summer but I'd love to get a small time internship online with any tech company, is that feasible?
dude your channel is literally a gold mine, ima binge these vids tomorrow
youtube recomended me your video and i am soo thankfull, really stuff man
btw
i was wonderring do you need an editor for editing your videos man?
Thank you
I don’t understand the measurable aspects of the resume because where are you getting the data from? It sounds like people slap random numbers when I read their resumes
You do your best to come up with real numbers from the internship project - but at the end of the day, it is a little bit of finessing
how to make resume for internship as a software developer

Congratulations 🥰
Can you share a resume template
Where can we find the small companies to intern at? Is there a website?
Google is your best friend - you’ll want to search for roles near you or in adjacent cities, and then go down the list and apply to them
@@AmanManazir can we search like , small tech startups near me?
Can you get an internship without being in college?
I don't..
when He job...
maybe help me the future
nice

I like ya cut g
oh my god
but people so angry
I don't know
neetcode carries this entire generation of swe interns tbh
Just view
so should i leave out all my fast food jobs if i make a resume...
If it's not career related, don't include it.
lil bro entitlement is crazy
maybe job online
“Specifically talking to girls out there” excuse me huh? As if everyone isn’t using this cringey resumes
Your video lost all its credibility when you're constantly, throughout it, discouraging people from applying to big name companies. LOTS of companies have programs that target freshman and sophomores. Are you not aware? Are you not educated? Also, how come people shouldn't apply for big name companies? No one should tell no to themselves
other than that video is good i love it
This slavery
And I bet that they gonna want experience to be a slave also 😅
Yes 🤣🤣@@howtopassthat
you don't need to magnify your face, it's bigger than our earth
