A lot of it has been family and college. The college I attended has a research group that allows students to do internships.
The college also runs job fairs every one in a while. Those kinds of things I huge.
Conventions of any kind as well, where you can speak to people in booths, or even any of the other attendees.
My first ever job was running a wood chipper under my uncles tree business. Did that almost every weekend for a number of years. Even sometimes in the winter. I wasn’t even a teenager when I first started this job.
Second job was working in a warehouse at a company my mom worked at. They really needed weekend help.
My third job was doing landscaping over the summer at a smallish company where my brother in law worked at. The owner loved to hire students for cheap.
Fourth was a few software development internships ran by a research group at my college. I had a friend who was part of the group and vouched for me.
My current job is my first true career job as a software engineer. The project manager from one of the internships I had actually got a job as CTO at this company. Offered me a junior position there out of college. Been there almost 6 years.
I have applied to places where I certainly would have needed interviews, but I was never offered an opportunity.
To make this even more awesome is that I’ve interviewed candidates myself at my current job for junior positions.
I’ve never had to do a job interview. 5 different jobs, all word of mouth.
I save them in my camera roll so that I can share them with people. I then just never delete them and they get lost. It is nice every once in a while to spot that random meme from 5 years ago and have a small chuckle.
Until you freeze it… Diarrhea ice cream!
I had always disabled chat in RL. Nothing good really ever came through it.
Out of curiosity, would they be subject to these laws/protocols/regulations if they are (developers or organization) based in the US, but offer releases hosted elsewhere in the world AND/OR develop the product with code hosted elsewhere in the world?
It is informative, but how often does the average person read this kind of information? Especially when they are set on doing something simple, such as turning off Bluetooth. What if you never use the settings menu, and only turn it off from the notification drawer? They never see that information. Not to mention that it’s such a small option (even though it’s a big paragraph) that they make it seem like they don’t want the user to disable it completely.
What they should do, is when the user disables Bluetooth the first time (anywhere on the phone), a pop up is at least shown to instruct the user that it is still scanning in the background. That way the user is informed. OR, hear me out, have background scanning disabled by default and prompt the user to enable it the first time they disable Bluetooth.
When I was in high school, the history teacher you got was like winning the lottery. One teacher showed war movies and had “fun” assignments related to that movie. The other teacher had written assignments almost every class.
I got super lucky… He was a fantastic teacher. Last I heard, some students ratted on him and he had to change his curriculum.
Not necessarily. A burrito can have one or both ends closed off. So it can also be a quiche or a calzone.
8 ball pool. The popups/ads suck, but you can play time attack mode on single player offline. Also a good time killer while online.
If it’s just fries, then nothing other than salt.
Otherwise, cheese curds and gravy.
