Introduction
It is my personal story I like to share. I knew Desmond Zhou working in Amazon long time, in June 2018 I asked him for advice for Amazon onsite interview, private coaching, he did not give any important advice. What is next?
A book to read
I attended Vancouver 9 cat tech event. Desmond Zhou gave out a talk about his career and advice. I showed up in the meetup, and asked advice.
More detail, I planned to attend the event, and I told the organizer that I will bring some fruit, snack and fruit juice from Costco.
I found out that I had terrible allergy second year again, my eye was so itching and I found out that it was the first time I am crying and screaming inside the car, outside the Costco. I decided to get into the Costco as soon as possible, purchase antihistamine pill and took 2 pills right away. I was worrying about how I can drive since my eye was so itching.
After the presentation, I asked Desmond Zhou for advice. He said that it is a very good book to read called Designing Data-intensive applications. That is around March, 2019.
Another recommendation
Later I met a young graduate Bhavya who worked at Visa in Singapore on interviewing.io as an interviewer, I connected to her on Linkedin.com. She also gave out recommendation for the book on linkedin three months ago. This month she joined Google in Singapore.
First chapter
I spent over two hours to read the first chapter last week. I like the writing and also tell myself to calm down, understand some basics first.
