books are small

yes this is an update of my life.

hey, i'm not going to talk about my modules today. instead i want to talk about something slightly more interesting but more scary at the same time. currently, i am still in the midst of finding a suitable summer internship role to really make use of the learning experience to put my statistical skills and knowledge into real applications.

rejections are natural. however, there have been few interviews as well.. some still awaiting result. then there are few in process of reading my application as well. for now, let's talk about the interviews i have so far. i am privileged to have been called for interviews with some big organisations/companies. nonetheless, the questions asked can be deeper and more challenging. among all the interviews i have been to so far, i have realise just one thing. books are really small. like i know learning through books and classes is one thing compared to working outside. however, i am shocked and amazed at the same time as i see the gap from school to the outside world.

technical questions asked can be prepared but not entirely. there will be time when such questions become so specific that no books of Google searches can really help you. it is difficult to explain in detail but i guess sooner or later you will find out what i mean.

beaten down many times but never staying down.. i'm stubborn like that. until next time then, cheers.
