Tldr; Detailed guide to land your dream software engineering job out of college in top tech companies like Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, etc.
Software engineering can be an exceptionally rewarding career, but there’s a lot of effort (and a pinch of luck) that’s needed before you can start to reap those rewards.
It’s not all about the coding problems – at least not for the first half. You need to be aware of the opportunities that may come knocking, followed by a plan to convert these opportunities into job interviews, and then finally prepare hard (and smart) to crack these interviews and grab a few offers.
Some credibility: I went to the University Of Southern California (USC) for my Masters in Computer Science and now work as a software engineer for Microsoft. I have always wanted to share my experiences since I landed some top tech job offers - something I always dreamed of but seemed very challenging and distant when I started.
So, I wrote this detailed article on all the areas that you can leverage before and during your collegiate years, that almost guarantees a job offer from your dream software engineering companies! Please don’t hesitate to ask questions.
