Really enjoyed this video!!

As a senior manager in the software industry, the average associate/junior software engineer salary is about AUD80K + Super, most of them don't include a bonus or an ESOP.
how about remote, i live in Vietnam can i get AUD80K + for junior software engineer
Hey amazing video!!! Im currently preparing for tech interviews and wanted to know how difficult tech interviews are in Australia, like leetcode mediums, hards or just the basics
Majority of questions will be around medium level !
Considering that I am european, to me aus, us or nzl makes little difference in terms of which one is worth more the distance from my homeland, as they are all far away😂
Hello andrew, I inpired to do software engineer from you. and I would like to ask a question.
It is good for software engineer degree in australia like university of woologong .
I mean univesity is more important to land job after graduated? i am international student and I am planning to study in Australia for software engineering.
What your prefer
University is important or grade is important
I mean what is important for software engineer to land job
super cool video! you should do an Australia's vlog :)
I have a day in my life video on my channel :) will try to do more vlogs this year !
Cool video bro! Is that work overtime as SE in Autralia often?😉Juan bu Juan？(Chinese)
Looking into getting a role in AUS actually. Preferably MEL if at all possible. Currently in FANG US so a lot of research needs to be done.
Hey andrew, just found your channel and loving your videos so far. I have a question to ask i’m an intl student and if you can help can you tell me how is rmit for software engineering compared to swinburne.also what will be better cs or se as i dont have any experience in cs up untill. If you can answer it will be of great help
I didn't grow up in Australia so I don't have any idea on those universities sorry ! Generally speaking, most software companies don't care as much about the university you go to these days since they mostly teach the same content. They care more about your actual practical skills, which you'll develop a lot through projects you do outside of school :)
Bro I'm from Nepal n if u don't mind can u tell me which is better for career IT or software engineering
Nice information, but there is a typo in Relocation benefit, its 10,000 AUD but written as 10,0000 AUD.
Wow… that’s a good salary in Sydney. Just moved here and I have been working for a while…
Hi Andrew, I am a fan of your youtube videos and have helped me make the decision to switch my degree from mathematics and economics to Computer Science. I am currently a first-year student at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch. I am trying to decide whether to switch to a CS or SE degree. I know UC is different to UoA but they are both similar courses with CS being a BSc and 3 years where SE is a BE and 4 years. If I was to do CS I would likely obtain a minor or major in economics as well. I am hoping that after my degree I land a job at Google, Optiver or another big company. With all that being said do you think the extra year of SE provides a significant advantage to obtaining one of these top-level jobs compared to just completing 3 years of CS (with an economics minor)? For the UC SE program, there are group projects in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th year whereas CS does not have any projects. Just love to hear your thoughts having gone through the NZ university system. Keep up the great videos! 👍
Hey ! It seems like the SE vs CS situation seems pretty similar in UC compared to UoA. From what I've seen at my uni, CS seemed to be a great choice for people who knew what they wanted (i.e getting a job in big tech), and wanted the fastest path to get there (3 years instead of 4). Oftentimes, these were the people who already had coding experience outside/before coming into uni so already had a lot of the necessary skills.
For someone like me who didn't code before uni, I personally enjoyed the longer degree with more projects, as it gave me more opportunities to practice my software engineering skills. Being able to do an extra internship also allowed me to experience a wider range of companies before deciding where to go for my grad role. I think because of this, I came out of uni with a more diverse skillset compared to other CS students (who also didn't code before uni).
Also keep in mind that employers won't care whether you have CS or SE on your CV, as they're basically both the same in their eyes.
hello i am very happy for your salary. well can you please tell me that in which field you work as a software engineer. thank you
Yo make more videos bro. Subbed.
How was your interviewing experience in NZ? I'm currently a 2nd year and tbh there wasn't any leetcode questions when I was applying for internships. Only Xero asked a hackerrank question but that was leetcode easy difficulty at best. Do Australian companies ask more leetcode medium/hard questions?
Yeah, I found that NZ companies don't tend to ask as many Leetcode type questions. It's the bigger companies (which you'll more likely find in Australia) that do :)
@@andrewhu7214 Sweet. Thanks! Guess I'll have to do more leetcode then if I ever decide to go across the ditch.
hey mate, can someone learn coding or programming through youtube videos or online courses and get a job basically self taught. I'm from melbourne
Hi,
Very informative videos. Thank you
Juat currently waiting for my residence visa to comes thru here in NZ but i have been wanting to become software engineer/developer... any suggestions where to study here in NZ? Or how to start up my career to become one?
Currently working as an fulltime account administrator. If i can study part time?
Your response will be highly appreciated.
Studying part time is common, lots of unis offer it. In terms of where you should study, that depends on your money situation, I would recommend University of Auckland just because of the name value, it’s more known in AUS/NZ than other unis, but I believe what you learn in whatever uni is generally the same
Hey Andrew! I was just wondering what degree you did in New Zealand? Awesome video!
started off doing software engineering + commerce conjoint, but dropped my commerce conjoint after the second year and graduated with just the engineering degree :) cheers for the support !
Hey Andrew, I am a CS student from India will be completing my course soon and I'm planning to apply for masters but I'm confused between Canada and Australia even though I personally like Australia more for a few reasons like the weather, higher minimum wages as i would like to pay my own fees from 2nd year of my masters. I have heard that Australia isn't the right place for software engineers and its much better to go to Canada or America for instance. Can you please shed some light on this topic ? Is there requirement for software engineers in Australia and is there growth in this career pathway over there? or should i actually get my mind off Australia. thanking you in advance and please continue to make such useful content.
Hard for me to comment about Canada as I don't know many people working there. For Australia vs US, it's really dependent on what you value. I would say growth and salary is definitely better in the US, especially when you're looking at tech hubs like SF and NY. Even within the same company, theres a pretty big difference in pay between the two locations. There's still plenty of great opportunities in Australia though- from fast growing start ups like Canva to big companies, I think it's still a great place to start your career.
One big advantage of Australia is that work life balance is significantly better here, and you'll be working much more reasonable hours compared to the US counterparts. I also know quite a few people that have moved from the US to Australia simply because they didn't enjoy being surrounded by people working in and talking about tech all day. I personally enjoy Australia because of the variety of people I meet and things I can talk about outside of my work :)
Hope this helps !
Hey, ashar have you made your decision to move in Australia?
Since you are studying in india don't choose canada since canada doesn't accept foreign degree's unlike australia
I am an American working in tech and I would say that purely based on a culture and quality of life standpoint I would not suggest coming here. Yes, if you are in SF, Seattle, or NY you can definitely make a lot of money, but the trade off is not very worth it to me because of the state of the country. Like, if you want to have a family at some point I would suggest going to Australia or CA. There are a lot of safety issues and very bad healthcare system here. I am leaving the country because of the QoL going significantly downhill plus inflation is very bad. Also, the attitudes toward immigrants is very poor here and immigration is very difficult. I have heard good things about Toronto, CA for tech jobs, but I am not familiar with their immigration process. Just something to think about.
@@andrewhu7214 Can you comment regarding Ashar's point of software developers in general being welcome or not in Australia? I've done some research and found controversial opinions regarding this. 33 years old, early-mid frontend developer asking here. Are there many local devs who would be chosen over immigrants? What kind of level of skill would one have to have to be considered by Australian companies?
what's the tax situation like?
Hi thanks for the content❤️
Quick question:
Do you think a computer science or software engineer degree is better in terms of compensation in Australia?
no
Is this in aud or usd dollars and pre tax or post tax? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.
AUD :)
Hello. are those amounts you are speaking of after taxes or before ?
Thank you a lot.
I am thinking of moving there from Romania
Salaries are always before taxes
while me getting 17k ayear..time to go to uni..
Sir my elder brother recently got a google offer which is about 277k usd for l4 role. How good is this offer?
Congrats to him ! Not too familiar with US salaries so hard to day. Maybe check out levels.fyi for reference :)
Depends. If he will be in San Francisco, that's not super impressive. Location does make all the difference.
okay buddy so you moved to AU.
I think europe is better if you're going to move anywhere in the world. you have faster internet in europe than in Australia.
Where u get the baby chimpanzee man in the background? I Love it🤓
did you study computer science in Uni? to become software engineer?
I studied software engineering , but you learn basically the same content :)
@@andrewhu7214 so software engeering is different from computer science? like when u apply at Uni instead of doing computer science u apply for comp engeering?
@@jermpoz2971 you can be a software engineer even with a compsci major. look into the differences in your uni and you’ll see they are different and focus on different things, but generally there’s a lot of overlap so you end up doing similar jobs
@@stxllr4687 oh i see thnx for that info....
Hi Andrew, Please can you help me with 7 big tech companies in Australia that can hire a python engineer, with good knowledge of SQL, JAVASCRIP, PHP, HTML5 and CSS. Please do reply asap. Thanks a lot.
hey ! most big companies won't require specific knowledge of a certain language (unless you're applying for a very specialised role) at the grad/junior/intermediate level. check out google/amazon(or aws)/canva/atlassian or LinkedIn for more options :)
@@andrewhu7214 Thanks a lot.
Would you say it's plausible for a Korean uni graduate to get a software engineer position in AUS right out of school?
Absolutely. Australia is in desperate need of software engineers. Australia is trying their hardest to recover from the COVID pandemic, and software engineers play a huge role in that.
definitely possible, Australia is pushing to have a big tech industry and this is pretty evident by looking at other cities apart from Sydney. Such as Adelaide which is pushing to try and take the throne from sydney for being Australias tech hub and this is pretty much the same for all cities. As Australia doesn't really manufacture and export things apart from mining it is another way to get more Australian exports out and is why the industry here is growing so much all the time
Are you a senior developer?
no, I'm currently a junior/grad :)
This is not true. I interviewed for a Senior Engineer role at Optiver Sydney & the role pays lower than my current job. Not shy from 200K AUD.
But still you get the requirement: 10+ years work experience.
The 100K AUD base for fresh grads has been standard for Sydney since 2015. I lived there for years.
Move to Singapore if you want to be rich.
Sounds like a singaporen......
nice ikea monkey :)
