YFE Embedded

I love everything that is happening @yfe_embedded this period 🥹 I'll have to step away for a few weeks because of responsibilities I can't skip, but I'm so so grateful for how far God has brought us 🥰 Sometimes, we look at other people's lives, and see it as reason to belittle what we're doing That shouldn't be the case Comparison is really the thief of joy YFE is going to be accepting 8/9 interns this month A partnership is cooking And my team is solid, so I don't really need to stress about what's going to happen while I'm away (Have I mentioned that I love my team a lot 🥹) I thank God for all He's doing through us, and I know for a fact that it'll only get better 🥰🩵 The lesson here is thank God for how far you've come Don't compare And don't let your food get cold looking at somebody else's plate God is doing great things in YOUR life Focus on that, and do your best with what He has given you I say this with love Happy Tuesday, beautiful people 🤗 Let's have a great one 👑

1 event 50+ people 120 minutes of pure value! 🥳🎉 When I decided to host an event in October, I knew I wanted to do something that would bring real value to my audience during my birth month 🥹 @yfe_embedded's Founder's Day event did exactly that, and everyone who attended can say so. We covered how to position yourself for international opportunities, how to make the most of your undergraduate years, and what it takes to become a WORLD-CLASS engineer 🔥 There was a lot to take home, but a few things stood out for me. 1️⃣ It's not about being perfect. It's about building momentum. Once you do the first thing, the second gets easier, then the third, then the fourth. It snowballs, and over time it compounds into results you couldn’t have forced in one go. 2️⃣ Teamwork is a skill worth working on. Learn to work well with others and get the most out of the team you’re in. 3️⃣ Unpaid internships are not a scam. That one got people thinking, and I’m glad it did. I want to say a special thank you to Sir Davis Booth for saying yes to being our guest speaker. He answered every single question with such patience and genuine care. You could feel that he wanted every person in that room to leave better than they came. Even when my internet decided to act up (Airtel acting like a weapon fashioned against me 🤧) Everything still went wonderfully well, from the planning before to the follow-up after. To everyone who attended, thank you for showing up and for the questions you asked. I know you’re leaving with value. YFE has never hosted an event that wasn’t built to deliver value, and this one was no different 🙂‍↔️🔥 Now, on to the next! 💃🏽 If you attended the event, what's one thing you're taking away from it? 😉 Let's have you in the comments 👇🏽

We ran interviews for @yfe_embedded's interns today Longest, 4 hours of my life But I'm grateful I got to speak with raw talent I know great things are definitely coming for YFE and the future of hardware 🩵💜

Opportunity will always go to the person who was prepared This is something that was emphasized at @yfe_embedded's event yesterday If you keep applying and applying, you get shortlisted, and you never make it past the interview stage... (Or let's even say you do, but you're not "ready" for the role because you don't have adequate skill) Maybe you should check yourself Build your skills (UPSKILL) Build your portfolio Work on projects Get a list of skills people in the industry are using and learn it (I'm speaking to myself too) Because if you keep up the cycle, you'll never move forward Even ChatGPT needs material to work with, and if you're giving it 1 yard, my dear NOTHING FOR YOU!!! The cloth will not be okay
