Recently I was going through a placement process of a company ( From Big 4 )  and their whole process was worst... You know why? 

See, 

1) Almost every student used chatgpt for coding like just imagine how bad their security process.. 

2) They selected Students with 0 code and rejected students who have done 2 codes. 

3) In the interview they are asking girls " write a code for finding greatest of three numbers " and for boys they are not at all responsive or reactive... Why the hell they took this placement process if they are not interested to take

Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

Sure, you have people around, flatmates, coworkers, friends....and family is just a call away. But still, it can get incredibly quiet, and sometimes the noise inside your head becomes overwhelming.

How do you cope with that?

P.S. I live with family now, so there's always some drama going on....But I’ve lived alone before, so I know what it feels like.

Also, I’m not sure if this is what loneliness feels like, or if it’s something closer to depression?

For those who live alone, how do you handle the silence?
