Having G on your resume is a huge booster. And if you can pass the hiring bar there, you can pass a lot of other places. You don't have to worry too much about finding another job.

Another thing to consider is that there are a lot of other people who passed the same hiring bar that are also applying for the same job

Hi Jon. I am currently having problems with my KZfaq account. The videos and content in my account is not refreshing and all my watch history is outdated. How do I get the latest trending videos on KZfaq such as technology, entertainment, fashion, gaming, business etc. Can you confirm if my account has been hacked or if my codes have been swapped?

Hi Jon. I wanted to ask you for advice on how CS grads and people getting into tech can actually break into the industry these days. I’m sure any insights you can give will help not just me but plenty of others as well. I can’t tell you how many graduates aren’t even getting interviews, myself included.

@yourfriendintech 2 ай бұрын

It's a tough market right now. If you are not doing this already, I would recommend seeking out roles specifically catered to new grads, as it's still competitive but less competitive than entry level roles. A good IG account to follow is @jonathanwordsofwisdom, he provides a lot of helpful tips on how to get a job in today's market. Hope that helps!

i was a google TVC in the fiber transport group working in all the major US data centers for 5 1/2 years. Google did not renew my groups contract last May and we were laid off. No reason was given. Now I work as a sub contractor to Ericsson as they laid off all the US field personal that supported the Google metro network sites.

Hi my friend i really like your vlogs it quite give me boost to do hard work and it always reminds me my goal My goal is simple like you i also wanna work at Google like you ...i am in class 12th 😅😅 I know thats pretty early to think all of this... I know that you join Google or i cn say you start working full time from 2016 and its been 7 year you are working....so my question is can you afford a luxury car cost around one hundred thousand dollars ??, like i am just asking cause of curiosity as you are working this much 😅😅

@yourfriendintech 3 ай бұрын

Thank you! IMO 12th grade is a great time to think about your career. Use this time to your advantage and figure out what you can do to make progress towards your goals. Can I buy a $100k car? Yes. Would I? No. It’s not a priority for me 🤷‍♂️. I have a few videos on how much money I make and how I manage my money if you’re interested in that topic
