In this video, I'll show you a coding project that gives me an unfair advantage in the tech industry. Using technologies like Spring Boot, ReactJS, and PostgreSQL, I'll demonstrate how to create a full stack application that will impress any FAANG recruiter. I even had a Microsoft employee review the project, and I'll share everything he mentioned...

I’m really trying to come up with ideas One idea I had a was an ai sports commentator where it could be a an ai voice over of someone maybe a celebrity or something and you upload a video of a basketball game and they commentate over it. Do you think that is a good idea for a resume project. Only thing is that it does not solve a real problem and would probs not have much of a user base

I think the technologies involved to solve it would be really good on your resume. But it’s something you’d struggle to host online somewhere for sure

@@SWErikCodes do you think I should still try to do it? I’m really trying to think of a bigger project to do for the rest of summer

@fm7018 I think it’s always better to just get started and do it. Besides, any AI project will stand out on your resume!

I follow you on Instagram, and it's been really interesting to see your progress man! Your tips are great, and the "road to fang" series of yours always reminds me to continue on grinding. Motivational!!

Awesome!! Have you completed Tech with Tim’s SDE course or still enrolled? And what is your experience with it like was it worth it?

@SWErikCodes 12 күн бұрын

I’m still enrolled (at 70 percent complete). If you have any questions please email me I’ll give you a full break down!

What resources did you use to learn PostgreSQL??? love the video

@SWErikCodes 11 күн бұрын

I honestly learned it in university, and gained hands on experience by following a spring boot + PostgreSQL tutorial by amigscode. I’m trying to drop a video (soon 🤞) on this so stay tuned!

Nice project. I was just wondering how are you getting your API data for your backend? Is there an API endpoint in which your university put their data?. Thanks in advance for the reply

@SWErikCodes 11 күн бұрын

I built the API myself by data scraping

@@SWErikCodes ah okay. I wanted to do a similar project for my canteen's university. They post a weekly menu on their website as a pdf. I was wondering if you have some idea on how can i get the data from the pdf file?

@golden-oj3mk look into data scraping with pandas and beautiful soup!

Took me 4 weeks originally, but I’m continuously working on it as I’m attempting to integrate it with McGill enhanced

i have made such projects for my uni too where in my head I imagined it being deployed and used by others but I am kind of an introvert and struggle to ask the faculty, uni or like you approach a Microsoft swe how did you approach these people ?? and how did you find them in the first place ?

@SWErikCodes 12 күн бұрын

To gain a user base I just posted about my project on LinkedIn and Reddit. I then cold reached out to people that may implement it, not expecting any response but being pleasantly surprised with the responses

Would a fitness app to track macros or exercises be resume worthy? react frontend, node backend, and postgres db? also sidenote can you walk me thru the chick fil a interview process lol

Project: I think this is a great idea because it sounds like something you’re passionate about (which goes a long way in interviews) and is in the in demand technologies

Interview: I had an OA with leetcode questions and random dsa knowledge questions which were mcq. Then had to do this video recorded interview, then a final phone call which was both behavioural and technical.

a question I have was, why did you use Spring boot instead of using something like NextJS + TRPC + Prisma?

Okay, but see the problem with coming up with a project that solves a real problem and has a user base is....Well, you are basically a start up and if you are able to build such things and there's people interested in your software then you probably don't need a job. If you are at this level and are able to produce software that people want to use...why trade it for a job?

baity title( should be "This Coding Project Might Give Me An UNFAIR Advantage...") with no work experience to back it up, clearly reading of a script, stating the obvious, shitty haircut etc. springboot mentioned tho so i left a like :)

1: Solve a real world problem 2: Has a user base ... Stop there. If you legit did create that then you wouldn't want to go to FAANG where you will die on the vine there. You would just start your own company if you had any actual skills. The fascination with working at FAANG is just ridiculous. Its all about getting clicks and selling courses
