Thanks for the video. The first tip, "your first job doesn't have to be your dream job", really resonated with me because I am at the stage where, coming out of graduation, I had to decide wether or not to accept a current job offer at a decent company or to reject it and keep preparing for my dream job. I chose the job that I got offered because I realised that this is just the first step in my career and I have so much time to discover myself and test my assumptions about what I like and don't like, which will compound over time and benefit me tremendulously.

Mayuko, thank you so much for creating content like this. It's so heartwarming to watch your videos and see your positivity come through. It's clear how genuine you are and how much you want to help others through your videos - thank you for existing and helping pave the way for more females into tech!!

This was a cool collab 😍 I have been a leader in QA on various teams. Bugs aren't always bad... They make tech teams grow for sure. Great vid.

Thank you sooo much!

Thank you Masha and Mayuko! I start working few days later and it is my first time to be a full time developer. I'm really nervous to walk into the whole new world but now I have the tips you gave me! Thank you so much! 감사합니다! Love from Korea!

Great video!
I'm graduating late this year in Mechanical Engineering, and this video fit like a glove (a very fitty glove).

TAKE NOTICE : record your videos with the audio turned all the way up because you can barely hear what you're saying if there's any background noise so make sure when you do the final edit on your video the volume is turned all the way up before you finalize your video

Hello Mayuko, just wanted to let you know that i'm about to take a degree in Software Engineering and have an interview tomorrow for an internship in the related field, and your videos have helped me prep for my interview a bunch. Thanks!

[GlenCodes]

Hey Mayuko, just dropped on by from Masha's channel. I dont have advice to give as I'm not professionally in the coding industry (yet) but this vid and the one on Masha's was awesome. Thanks for sharing :)

[mayugeful]

Cool. Hope many students in JP also watch this video and get motivated.

Hello Mayuko! Can you make a video on how to battle with sexism as a woman in tech? I love coding but sexism in tech is causing severe damage to my confidence. I am attending a coding class where the lecturer often uses sexist views to explain basic programming concepts like object-oriented programming. I don't want to quit but I am being left behind because I cannot accept his ideas.
