Thanks for putting these videos out. Especially this one. I’m recently making a transition from chef to Full Stack Engineering. It’s been stressful but when I reached out on Facebook to friends who code, I found out that I have way more friends who code than I ever knew. They e been super supportive and their words, including your stories have helped carry me through this tough transition. Keep up the great work! Glad I stumbled onto your channel.

[@ChaoticBlackout]

Hey Joma, I watched this multiple times during the beginning of my job search 2 months ago, after being laid off from COVID-related restructuring. You gave me a good way to approach my LeetCode grind. Like yours, my problem wasn't getting interviews; it was passing. After struggling hard and pushing myself, I too started to see the tricks and patterns for many of the problems. Well, I just landed a contract-to-hire job at one of my dream companies!!! And I'm gonna sign up for a daily coding problem service to keep my DS/algo skills sharp now that I know HOW to study, so even if I don't get converted, I'll be ready to interview elsewhere. Thanks for this video man, it inspired me. Happy Holidays, I hope you're enjoying yourself at FAANGULTAD :)

[@rv8804]

And just like that a bromance flourished before my very eyes 😂

Hell yeah Joma. I did over 150 questions over 2 months for my FAANG interviews and got an offer!. I’m enjoying my summer now, but I want to try to do at least one question a day or two after I start so when I interview again I kick ass. Might look at your program later!

[@qwarlockz8017]

Congratulations on getting the job you wanted. It is great that you put the work in and thanks for the "process" video showing the general steps you took. It is really helpful. I do have to say that though I started watching tech lead and occasionally I will still catch one... I find they are not good for me. Maybe it is me not getting the humor or something. But, they almost combative and I end up feeling worse about interviewing. Yours though tend to be really supportive. Thanks for the help!

Hey Joma! This video just came at the right time... 3 weeks down of my interview prep and job search and my self esteem is going down the drain... The more I study, the more I feel like I know nothing and start doubting all my skills and knowledge. Passing the phone interviews hasn't been a problem, but can't say the same when it comes to coding interviews... Thanks for assuring me that this is a normal feeling and it shall pass! And now, let's do another leet code exercise...

Joma is the epitome of "hard work pays off" and it really does, talent can only take you so far but if you're talented and lazy you begin to cap off and all the hardworkers behind you will start to catch up and out curve you in skill since you've become complacent in your ability. Always stay humble and have a thirst for knowledge. You are an inspiration and I don't think you know it.

[@jiazhenghuang9638]

Today is my 5th day of Leetcoding, and I feel so depressed because of the questions that I have done. I just keep forgetting them after I have done it a day before.

Congrats on all the hard work paying off for you! You have been inspirational, as I am doing a career change into tech right now as well. And for being transparent about the easy questions too. I think you have made a lot more people feel better with that one comment. Wow, I was very interested when I heard about your program, but there is no way I can afford the special offer price, even at the first-week extra special offer price. Have you considered setting up any scholarships or income share agreement setups for those without the initial outlay? Or set up a pay it forward programs-type of set up for others that have an amazing job to pay it forward as a way to support more people to get into tech careers? The price that is hidden on the site, is more than my rent that would but the sad thing is, that it would probably triple my chances of getting more income. No matter, I'm still determined to get a job. Ahhhh Catch-22s are a pain. So, another month of living vs this program. Humm....Hope my roommates are nice to me, just like yours were.
