  • So, as you can see, my office is basically back to where it was before.

  • Whereas last video, this area was completely downstairs because I didn't want any of those tornadoes, lightning storms or Hurricane Florence or whatever to come in.

  • And I don't know how strong that is, So I don't want to take any chances, but I'm not too sure I'm gonna keep this set of, like, Don't get me wrong.

  • I like it how it is.

  • But there are a few things that I may want to change just to change things up because I'm never satisfied.

  • I just kind of like to change things up a little bit.

  • So basically how normally the cameras right here and you have that directly in the background?

  • I'm thinking of taking this desk right here, toe where the green thing is a moving the green thing and everything on top of it right along this wall.

  • Not this wall, but this wall right here.

  • So it's the green thing will be right where I'm pointing this desk will be where the Green Thing is.

  • And but it up against this desk will be that desk right there in the corner my main set up, but I think I'm going to set up my main set up.

  • I want to this desk and I'm going to keep that standing desk as just a blank desk for me to put stuff on.

  • And maybe I don't know.

  • I don't know.

  • I just really liked this set up for my monitor and everything on this desk.

  • The height of it was perfect, and I never used the standing desk.

  • In fact, I don't even have the standing deselect tronics plugged in, so it's basically lucked at the current position.

  • It sits.

  • That's why I think I'm gonna move this setup over to that desk so I can actually plug that back in.

  • And I have to worry about all of these wires back here getting yanked up.

  • If I ever want to make this standing again, you see what I'm saying?

  • I don't know.

  • Maybe that made sense, and all of that would make this kind of the normal camera angle from here on out because my setup would be directly behind me.

  • And that's just kind of how I like to run things.

  • So for this Q and a video, we're going to keep the camera angle just like this.

  • See how we like it Cool for this?

  • You don't know.

  • I gather these questions for my YouTube post thinking everybody for hitting 25,000 subscribers, and I asked you guys ask questions for this particular video?

  • So if you didn't see that next time, I'm actually going to be hosting it over on Twitter.

  • So for those of you who follow me on Twitter, your questions are going to be answered first and foremost in this Q and A.

  • So be sure to follow me on Twitter.

  • Links are down in the description to all my Social media's.

  • But let's get started.

  • Our first question is the most popular question on that post.

  • And that is how much did you know to get entry level jobs?

  • A cell for engineer?

  • So basically what you need to know to get entry level jobs, software engineer is toe.

  • Understand what kind of software engineer you want to be General speaking software engineer will program in Java c++ or language similar to that.

  • Or maybe you want to be a full stack developer and Iowa's developer, whatever determined that first and that is your first step to actually becoming that type of software engineer.

  • The second thing you should know is actually howto work with the tools languages Framer said they're using.

  • So if you want to be self engineer, job engineer, then maybe you're doing Java development.

  • Using this spring framework, you need to prove to this potential employer that you can actually fulfill the task that they need at a level equal to or better than others who are applying for the same job.

  • Generally speaking, if you're coming out of college with the computer science degree, you have these skills under your belt at least enough to get an interview at entry level, soften junior position and then third.

  • You need to make sure you know what they're gonna ask you at this interview process.

  • You want to make sure that you ace the interview process because if you have the skills, the only thing keeping you from getting the job is that entire interview you want.

  • Make sure that you know your stuff and that you're compatible with their team, meaning you're personable, you're friendly.

  • You're not gonna get on anyone's case.

  • You're not going to bring in negative energy into the company.

  • That's what people look for when they're trying to hire somebody on our commit says Congrats, man.

  • Thank you, sir.

  • Where do you see yourself in your career with your C s degree?

  • Do you always want to coders or something else?

  • You want to come within the tech field?

  • Oh, also, which do you prefer?

  • Front end or back?

  • All right, So let's go back to the first question and that essentially, where do you see yourself in the future?

  • Within the tech field for me?

  • I would like to progress in my current position to sulfur engineer.

  • My programming skills aren't as high as I would like them to be to want to make sure I continue to fulfill all requirements that are asked of me within this composition.

  • So I get better and better and better, and then potentially move up to a senior role as the company I'm currently working for grows and people come in under me and there since you're taking the jobs that I'm doing and I'm able to take a more seeing your level roll and then from there, I would really like to see myself going to something along the lines of a sea solutions architect or a project manager.

  • And although different, I definitely see myself fitting either roll and the solutions architect.

  • I think that would challenge me, Maur.

  • But as a project manager, I think that will allow me to be more busy, based on my own self awareness of my skills and how I would perform in either role based on my understanding of those two rules.

  • I also think both of those roles will allow me to take those skills into what I would like to grow as my own business, because if you're running your own business, you need to know how to operate and how to determine who does what and just kind of we'll manage people and in terms of Web development, what I like better front and her back in front and for sure it allows me before creative, whereas back in I've never really enjoyed it that much.

  • Do you have any hobbies?

  • Maybe surfing?

  • Yes and yes, I do enjoy surfing.

  • That is one of my main hobbies when we actually get waves over here on the East Coast.

  • So yes, definitely surfing, snowboarding, fishing hunting, playing video games and making these videos.

  • Although YouTube channel has really grown out of the hobby phase and got Maur into the business aspect of things which I'm actually really enjoying, what is your favorite vacation spot?

  • I would have to say Costa Rica play going has to be exact.

  • I've been there on two separate occasions, and that was for surf trip because they have good waves, they have good weather.

  • The water is nice and warm.

  • There are a few different breaks along the coast, at least where I went.

  • There's a lot of fun when it comes to vacation.

  • I don't like to just sit there, hang out on the beach drinking, although I do like to do that a little bit.

  • I don't want my whole entire trip to just be that I'd like to be doing especially one of those four hobbies that I talked about.

  • You like to go on a surf trip or a fishing trip or hunting trip or snowboarding trip.

  • So when it comes to vacationing, I'm gonna do at least one of those four things.

  • How much computer science.

  • So I need to know to get my first C s internship in college.

  • Well, luckily for you, a lot of those computer science internship listings actually say We want you to be at least a sophomore in college or we don't want you to be a senior because sometimes a coop wants you to come back.

  • You know, every other semester said they will allow seniors to apply for that position.

  • They want you to be maybe even a freshman or sophomore or junior.

  • So look in the actual listing for what that requirement is if it's listed, and that'll give you a good knowledge based on what your experience should be, like these jobs that are offering these internships understand you're not gonna be coming in and being a programming whiz whether or not you are, because you're essentially just gonna be a freshman or sophomore in college.

  • A lot of these jobs, depending on if it's specific or not.

  • You know, if it's just computer science, you can expect a lot of different things.

  • But if it's softer engineering or if it's a systems analyst position or if it's a data scientist position, then you can kind of expect what to do.

  • But you will also be doing a lot of, I'll say typical intern work.

  • I'm not necessarily talking about going fishing coffee for the entire office.

  • I'm talking about heavily.

  • He utilizing Microsoft office as Word Excel Power Point.

  • You'll be creating those power points for higher ups to present to even higher higher ups.

  • So that's a lot of the work that I actually did it various different internship.

  • So that's to be expected.

  • A lot of these interests will also give you kind of like a one semester trial run, especially if it's labeled as a co op.

  • And that trial run will kind of see if you work out if you fit in and you'll be doing a lot of that grunt work.

  • But then when they bring you back the next semester, where you do a semester of work, a semester of school, another semester of work, that's the internship Coop.

  • You actually have a particular project that you work on at that company all semester long, so that was really just a long winded way of saying you don't need much computer science.

  • Know how long as you're a student at a college majoring in computer science, you'll be likely to be considered for that particular internship.

  • What programming languages do you use?

  • It work in which one is your favorite?

  • And do you recommend learning that language?

  • I use Java mostly at work, those of my incredibly incredibly busy days.

  • That's why can't really document any of that type of work on the channel.

  • So I would definitely say Yes, I highly recommend using job.

  • That would be my favorite, cause that is probably what I'm best at.

  • But I have been using a lot of different wed developments to accepting what the client needs cause a lot of work that I'll be doing isn't necessarily building things from scratch.

  • It has taken a an existing product in making sure it works properly for them, for the client.

  • So whatever they have that exists, that's what I need to adapt to.

  • That's what I need to learn, and that's what I need to develop an engineer into something that actually works for them.

  • So there are a lot of random languages and tools, frameworks, technologies that come into my wheelhouse.

  • But Java is definitely my most use on this current job, and that is it for the Q and a Let me know what you guys think about this office set up idea that I have the beginning of the video.

  • Do you think I should have it, like in the corner?

  • I don't know.

  • I think want to test it out and then just see how it goes If everybody hates it, and then maybe I'll change back.

  • Maybe I won't, I don't know.

  • But if you've made it this far in this video, I'm assuming you like what you heard.

  • So be sure to subscribe because I'll be talking a lot Maur and future videos about topic similar to what we discussed in this video.

  • And don't forget to drop alike because, you know, I'll take all the help I can get when it comes to catering to the YouTube algorithm and that his comments and likes.

  • I like those engagement on a YouTube video and watch time for all that matters.

So, as you can see, my office is basically back to where it was before.
