I'm not convinced I know the "proper" grip but I get food into my mouth without dribbling. Yay me. From observing the labmates at school or family friends at gatherings, I've pretty much come to the conclusion most people I know have a different grip.

As long as it works, it's somewhat reasonable and isn't really uncomfortable then it's probably fine. Different cultures, different norms too. And that's not just how and when people use them either but also the actual chopsticks themselves.

This being my impression anyway.

According to my parents the proper way to use chopsticks is each stick touching each other when you go for the grip on the food. If they cross each other (like on the left picture) you would be doing it wrong. But really, unless you have to impress your Asian girlfriend's traditional and strict parents or have to prove how authentically Asian you are, the way you use your chopsticks is the proper way. As long as it can grip food you should be fine.

when i interviewed it was straight to a coding screen but it was 5 years ago lol

guess more recently at other large techcos I've had a quick first phone screen with a recruiter asking basic tech questions (google did this lol) or coding assessments.

2 hours is a lot tho


When I interviewed for pfizer my interview was 2 days long. 8 hour sessions every day (presentation/meetings/lunch/dinner). That shit is the worst. Give me a 2 hour interview.

I'm pretty used to full-day interviews (just about every interview I did when moving out here was like that) and outside of taking time off of work I don't really mind them but

jesus christ 2 days is nuts lmao. I did like 9:30 to 4:30 for this job and it was rough lol

The worst part is eating with your direct superiors. You end up not really eating so you are on an empty stomach for the rest of the day unless you had a big breakfast. First day was getting interviewed by people who are a big higher than you but then you get to meet the big boys the second day. I got grilled by a bunch of senior directors so that was a big spooky. I will say though, these guys have so much money. First class everything is pretty nice.

Reminds me of the story about how IBM decided whether they'd hire people back in the 70s. They'd do the normal interview stuff, then take them out for steak. If they salted it without tasting it was an automatic fail.

I actually figured out how to get directional sound working ok in pubg

most people don't even know that game has 5.1 surround audio lmao (including the devs)
shitty thing is windows sonic requires you to select stereo in sound configuration but if you do that pubg automatically reverts to stereo and then you can't fucking do the headphone virtualization thing because lmao actually letting people to choose their audio configs in 2018

so what you need is a little something in between your windows sound config and your headphones

what I also learned is some sounds in pubg use proper HRTF, some don't, and some are just plain mono which is pretty shitty in stereo

2 hr is just the first phase to weed out the weak coders using an online assessment for amazon. After that I've seen the in person interviews be 1-3 days long. Interviewing seems to be a big part of their culture. Juniors who have been in the company for less than a year do interviews lol

Yea 2 day interview was 3rd round. I guess that’s about the norm once you get into a certain bracket. Good luck if you decide to proceed.
