SWE Week Thirteen!
What did you do this past week?
This past week, my team and I finished the final project for this class! It was a struggle, but we got most of it done. Shout out to Dylan Droll, who really ramped up the effort and made the website look incredible. I also started my internship application process. I know it’s a bit late, but I actually have a few interviews lined up! Exciting!
What’s in your way?
Too much to do! I wish I had more time. The saving grace here is that there’s a lull before the exam for this class. A lot of my other classes suddenly became very demanding, and I simply do not have the time.
What will you do next week?
Interviews! There’s a few very promising opporunities coming up for this summer. I’m a bit nervous, especially since I’ve never had an interview that wasn’t for WalMart or Tech Support. Still, I’m excited. I’ll actually be able to pay my rent this summer!!
What’s my experience of the class?
Finishing out the semester strong! On a real note, the things I’ve learned in this class have really helped me. I don’t think I’d be getting these interviews if it wasn’t for these classes. One of the interviews I had recently actually went extremely well because I was the first candidate to have used Google Cloud Platform, which I used for this class. So yeah, shout out to Glenn Downing.
tip-of-the-week?
For my tip this week, I’d like to recommend Fiddles IO, a set of online emulators for various languages. Their most popular one is their Javascript Fiddle, which allows you to test HTML, CSS, and Javascript and see the results immediately. A lot are still in the works, such as their Python Fiddle, but it’s still a good tool for quick testing, such as syntactical questions.
Keeping it short this week!
Until next time!
