Chicago office has the best toasters, if you can find them

Congrats on getting the internship! The Chicago, NY, and Boston offices are all super nice. The Philly office is pretty run-down. Culture-wise, I would say Chicago and NY seem to have the most social events, but my perception is limited to the offices I've been to myself and the home offices of my team members. Chicago in the summer can't be beat; there's so much to do and the weather is amazing, so I would pick that if I were you!

I'm curious how important it is to have a referral etc and what you'd recommend for applications opening in jan. Any advice is super appreciated I don't have any connections to the industry but it's something im interested in.

I studied computer science in school but I didn’t do well due to life coming in the way. I got poor grades but ultimately finished my degree without any internship experience.

After three months of job search, I started for 45K at a construction company as a Jr App Support. After a year I shifted in to QA for 65k and now after a year of QA, I have finally gotten a position as a software engineer for 78K base.

The imposter syndrome is finally gone!

Hang in there, hard work pays off.
