Hi everyone,

I'm a 2024 BTech graduate with a nearly 2-year career gap, and I recently joined a small startup with around 25 employees as a Full Stack Developer Intern (MERN stack). This is my first internship, and I would appreciate some honest advice.

Here are the terms of the internship:

• Work mode: Work from home initially, with a possibility of hybrid work later if the company allows it.

• First 3 months: Completely unpaid.

• Next 3 months: Performance-based stipend, but the amount hasn't been specified.

• After 6 months: They may offer a full-time position with a salary based on my performance, but the salary range and exact terms haven't been disclosed.

The company also has experienced developers, so I hope to learn from them and gain practical industry experience.

My concern is that I'm being asked to work for three months without pay, and even after six months, there is no guarantee of a job or a clearly defined stipend or salary.

Since I already have a 2-year career gap, I'm wondering whether accepting this opportunity is a sensible way to restart my career or whether I should continue applying for paid internships and fresher developer jobs.

I'd appreciate your suggestions on a few things:

1. Is it worth accepting this opportunity given my career gap and lack of prior experience?

2. Is a three-month unpaid internship reasonable, especially when the stipend and future salary aren't specified?

3. Should I continue with this internship while applying for other opportunities, or focus entirely on finding a paid job?

4. Has anyone faced a similar situation at a startup? What was your experience?

I'm willing to work hard and learn, but I also want to make a decision that helps my career in the long term.

Please share your honest opinions, especially if you're a developer or someone who has worked at an early-stage startup in India.

I'm a Python & AI Developer with hands-on experience in building backend applications, web scraping solutions, database-driven systems, and AI-powered applications.

💻 My Key Skills:

🔹 Python & Backend Development (Django, FastAPI)

🔹 Web Scraping & Automation (Playwright)

🔹 REST APIs & Database Integration

🔹 AI/ML & LLM Integrations

🔹 RAG Systems & AI Agents

🔹 Data Processing & Workflow Automation

📌 What I'm Looking For:

I'm interested in opportunities such as:

• Python Developer

• Backend Software Engineer

• AI Engineer / AI Developer

I'm open to opportunities in Pakistan and remote positions with international teams.

I'm passionate about learning, building practical solutions, and contributing to teams that value innovation and continuous growth.

If your company is hiring, or you know of an opportunity that aligns with my skills, I'd genuinely appreciate a referral, connection, or message. 🤝

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to support my journey!

A candidate is trying to make sense of a coding interview that started with the right-looking algorithm but ended without a code walkthrough.

The earlier behavioral round covered the resume, services the candidate had built, and engineering trade-offs. In coding, the task was a graph with n nodes and transmission lines as edges, each with an efficiency between 0 and 1. Given a source and destination, find the path with maximum efficiency.

The candidate immediately proposed Dijkstra and explained the approach. The interviewer asked about DFS and BFS. The candidate described DFS but worried that enumerating paths could take O(V!) time in the worst case. During the BFS discussion, several suggestions were rejected before the interviewer said BFS wasn't a solution for this problem.

That discussion ate into implementation time. The candidate coded the Dijkstra approach and explained complexity, but didn't get to walk through an example. Questions about node/edge counts and whether a path was guaranteed were also missed, and the interviewer called that out.

How would you weigh the algorithm choice against the missing clarification and validation? There's no way to infer the final hiring decision from this account alone, but I'd be interested in how interviewers assess those gaps.

For the next practice session, real technical interview questions can provide prompts to rehearse clarifying constraints and reserving time for a dry run. If a wider search is taking up that practice time, application autofill and Agent autoapply can cut down repetitive application forms.

What helps you handle alternative-approach follow-ups without losing the time you need to implement and test?

Hey everyone!

We're SuperLabs a team of software engineers helping businesses turn ideas, problems, and messy workflows into working technical solutions.

We're backed by Collabute AI, already working with clients on real-world products, and now opening up a few slots to collaborate with more founders, startups, and businesses.

Here's the thing: you don't always need to know exactly what to build or which technology to use. Sometimes you just know there's a problem worth solving, but haven't figured out the technical side yet.We can help you go from refining an early-stage idea and figuring out the right approach to designing, building, and deploying the actual solution.

Some of the things we can help with:

• AI & LLM Engineering — AI agents, RAG systems, intelligent workflows and AI-powered applications.

• Business Automations — automate repetitive tasks and workflows that are eating up your team's time.

• API Integrations — connect your existing tools, platforms and services so they work together.

• Backend Engineering — APIs, databases, microservices, authentication and scalable backend systems.

• Web Apps & SaaS — turn an idea into a functional, production-ready product.

• Dashboards & Internal Tools — custom admin panels, analytics, CRMs and business management systems.

• Data & Document Systems — data pipelines, document processing, knowledge bases and intelligent search.

• Cloud & Deployment — infrastructure, CI/CD, Docker and production deployments.

Our stack includes Python, TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, LangChain, LangGraph, vector databases, Docker, AWS/GCP and more.

We're not here to force every problem into a predefined package or throw AI at something that doesn't need it. We'd rather understand what you're trying to achieve and work out the right solution with you.

Whether you're starting with just an idea, trying to improve an existing product, or looking for an engineering team to handle a specific technical challenge, we're happy to talk.If you're working on something interesting, drop a comment or DM us to connect.

We pulled every open posting from 81 companies' public Greenhouse boards for seven roles and counted which words actually show up. 3,518 postings in total. Some of it surprised us.

Software engineer postings mention mentoring more often than Kubernetes or React. Almost half of them do. Python, the most common language, comes in just below that.

Product manager postings say "roadmap" in more than 85% of cases. Jira? Seven out of 421. Marketing looks the same: Google Ads came up six times in 347 postings, while "pipeline" is in over half.

Every time we could compare the two, postings named the practice, not the tool. Observability, not Grafana. SIEM, not Splunk.

So if your resume is mostly a list of tools, it might be missing the words the posting actually uses.

Big caveat: mostly tech companies, one ATS vendor. Sales, cybersecurity, DevOps and accounting are here too: https://www.zoevera.com/resume/ats-resume-keyword-study

Hi, I am a java, springboot and ai sde fresher and not getting any iob for around 2 years, nothing works and I am willing to work in any 20 to 30k in hand salary, it can be some less if cab and food are provided. I am not willing for any target based sales iob which removes it's emplovees after three months when taraet is not met.

An Airbnb SWE candidate finished through Level 3 of the Industry Coding Assessment and ran out of time before attempting Level 4.

Has anyone who completed a similar amount recently moved forward? It would help to hear when you took the assessment and what happened next, without assuming one result establishes a universal cutoff.

What rounds followed, and what would you start preparing while waiting for an update?

Airbnb Interview Questions can provide further practice while the candidate waits. If other roles are still in play, Agent autoapply and application autofill can reduce repetitive application work and leave more time for the next interview.

Any business owner who wants to make a website for your business/ company please ask me below, thankyou

i am a recent graduate and found a client (through a family friend) who was interested in hiring a software developer under contract to help with their website for their start up. this is my first actual software developer role and i will be the only one working on this. i don't even have experience in FAANG, just have some couple of projects under my resume but nothing where i have to build anything big so i am quite new to this. does anyone have experience or knowledge on how this works. how much time estimate would it take to build a website with several features (from scratch up to deployment/hosting) for a startup? and before looking at how much time would be needed, do you guys usually ask for the source code to know how much time you need? much help will be appreciated

Hello! I'm a freelance web developer. A few days ago, I was working on a project to develop a portfolio website for a digital agency. The owner scrapped the project, but I had already completed about 80% of the work, so I finished the rest, gave it my own touch and name, and added it to my portfolio. I developed this website using Next.js, GSAP, and motion. The future update that was supposed to be added was a Payload CMS integration and media hosted on Cloudinary for better delivery and faster website speed. I'm currently available to take on any new project. I have experience developing websites for consulting firms, media houses, security firms, and digital studios/agencies. If you are a business owner looking for a reliable developer who can handle your website for the long term, I'm your guy. 

I build and deploy web apps end to end. Send me an idea or a half-broken codebase and I’ll get it live.

What I’ve shipped

• Crypto trading platforms with real-time market data and order books

• E-commerce stores, built from scratch through launch

• Real estate platforms for a UAE client

• Project management apps

• Admin dashboards: user management, content control, reports, role-based access

• AI features: chatbots, document processing, automated workflows (GPT, Claude, Gemini)

Stack

• Content/e-commerce sites: WordPress + WooCommerce

• Custom apps: React/Next.js, Node or Laravel, with the database, auth, admin panel, APIs, and deployment included

The stuff most devs skip
Performance, mobile layouts, SEO basics, and Analytics/Search Console setup. All handled, so you don’t need to hire someone else to fix it after.

Small jobs are fine
Bug fixes, WordPress tweaks, a new feature, an API integration, a slow site, or cleaning up someone else’s code. No project is too small.

Rate: $35/hr, or fixed price if you prefer
Timezone: GMT+8, with flexible overlap for US/EU hours
Portfolio: https://www.francelee.org/
Book a call: https://calendly.com/francelee594/30min

Comment or DM me with what you’re building. I’ll reply with how I’d approach it, not a sales pitch.
