After my trip and months of prep, I managed to get an amazing job at a huge tech company.

Kudos to yer! A friend of mine and her boyfriend did a year-long trip around Southeast Asian and then several months of road trips through the United States. Afterwards they bought a home in Hawaii and she's working as an engineer for one of the cities. Another friend and her husband did something similar and somehow she landed her old job again.

I am actually amazed by what some folks can accomplish. Some folks struggle to land a decent job while some can disappear for a year, come back, and get a good paying job again.


True, but it wasn't easy by any means. I spent a good 10 hours a day coding and studying algorithms, and making some of my own. It took almost 8 months to land an interview, then the interviewing process was brutal.
