Two months in already!
Last week was also pretty slow for me. I spent a lot of time working on the CI Challenge with my team, but other than that, there wasn't much for me to do. The only real problem I've had at Sun Life so far is that there doesn't seem to be enough work for me to actually do. I made the improvements to the internal tool that I was assigned, and hope to deploy it some time in the coming week.
I recieved a couple of OA's from companies that I would like to do well on (Uber, Cisco).
I completed the OA's for both Uber and Cisco this week. I did very well on the Cisco one (only one test case missed out of the 3 questions), but absolutely tanked the Uber one (got stuck on the third question, ended with a 404/600). Disappointing, but can't really get too upset about it considering I had only spent less than a week preparing for them. I'm hoping that I will be able to get an interview with Cisco at least, as I think I did well enough to get one. I already know that I won't be getting one from Uber, but I am happy nonetheless that I was able to get past the first round (though I know that many people recieved it).
Moving on, I also recieved an OA from Snowflake this week. Apparently it's very hard so I don't think I will be able to do well on it, but we will see.
Fall 2024 Goals Update
It was a pretty slow week this week. I only ended up going bouldering twice, and didn't swim or go to the gym at all. I spent a couple nights helping Ruby study for her midterms, so that took priority over swimming and the gym. We will definitely be going swimming again next week.
Personal Life Update
On Sunday night, I went with a couple friends to Halloween Haunt at Canada's Wonderland. We all got fast passes, so we were able to go on all the rides and mazes that we wanted to (though, even with the fast passes, there were still some pretty long lines compared to last year). The second ride we went on was the Leviathan, which was exciting as always. Maybe we should have saved it for later in the night, and had a little bit of a warm up with some of the smaller rides, lol.
