Ask HN: Working in a language that isn't your native one. How hard was it?
I'm currently interviewing for roles in another language and it's so difficult. I'm wondering if this is universal? I'm struggling to even imagine the daily work in a company. Handling meetings, understanding requirements, standing up for my solutions... I sound like a child. Anyone lived through this? How? 4 comments on Hacker News.
