Re:Is it worth pursuing .net Core Razor Pages? on Saturday December 01, 2018 @01:21PM (#18578020)
You probably want to look up the .net sub on reddit and ask your question there. I think most .net devs use Angular on the frontend, though React/Vue are popular as well. In addition, there is an experimental frontend technology that a lot of .net devs are playing with called Blazor.

Your interview actually sounds like a fun process. I've been really frustrated with all of this lately. I don't know what I should be focusing on. Should I grind LeetCode/HackerRank, work on personal projects, or read CTCI a million times (ugh)? I love working on projects more than trying to solve problems on LeetCode/HackerRank.

The first one whets the appetite with an overview/setup and the second one gets your hands dirty building a CRUD app.

Wow, that's deep. Well said and I think that's exactly the situation I'd like to be in as well--being a member of the offensive push.
This is pretty typical of Western Canada. I'm not shocked at all. You're talking about an area of Canada that is all about oil, gas, and mining--natural resources. The tech industry is non-existent out here with the exception of Vancouver. I also heard that this particular company is notorious for letting you go if you don't catch on quickly. If I were her, I'd run far away from this joke of a tech company.
Preach on preacher. This, this so this. Well said.
