@tiny heart is lc design a good way to practice this?
wait with class I just try to speedrun the oop problem when the assignment drop so I gotten pretty fast at it idk though maybe not the method but that’s how I learned
A better stat to look at is how many are seeking for jobs or internships
I’d say if you include unicorn and quant headcount, it’d only be like 30-40k max
Are we cooked
Am I one of them
Perhaps but that’s a lot harder to track
^
My point is everyone here treats faang or something of similar tier as a bare minimum
But in reality it’s already exceptional
the year is 2030, all of faang has merged into one megacorp
Idk if it's special because I know like at least a third of CS students have an internship
It's really hard to say what really is impressive
a third is pretty bad ngl
You look at LinkedIn and everyone around you is doing well
That feeds the perception
Ik but I'm saying
Success is more visible than failure
All of us not good enough we gotta get better all of us are ngmi at the end of the day
When I got c1 I was overjoyed for the first few weeks. And I still am very greatful to have an internship. But everyone says c1 is the literal lowest of the low and I go right back to running the rat race
And people say the same thing about Zon
The cycle never ends
A third is low + “an” internship can include anything
You can never succeed in this industry
i wish i could get an internship
There is always higher. You will never be happy. Think about all the people younger than you doing it better. Stop loving your li

This. Getting a zon/c1-tier internship in the big picture is actually like top 5%. In this discord it’s average or maybe even below average
i have never heard of this
If you think different, clearly you don’t see the number of people graduating with 0 internships
Bruh you just become depressed cause u think it’s the new average
That’s exactly the mentality that feeds this server
What even is ngmi?
If not a standard this server sets
To define the average
Where is splunk
well this server has always been self selecting
And this server is rarely self aware of it
Lock in
Always lock on
This simply is not true
faang is 180 - 250
Fs bro
bruhgamer are you balling 200k ng
1M*
200k in Seattle and SF is like 10k/m post tax that’s kinda cheeks no?
u get reamed on property tax
Seattle n sf in same sentence
@gaunt reef offer spread rn
It’s around 50% no?
And a dog
Talk the 200k let’s see it fr
I think this server also skews towards more wealthy upbringings as well
have you decided on where you going?
Yuh this is poverty shit
Last night I said I share a bathroom with my siblings and you replied with “why” 😭
Which companies
Sharing a bathroom is a foreign concept to this guy
This is lwk crazy though sharing a bathroom very normal
C1 if I don't get Zon
GitHub if I get Zon
Databrih
I'm holding both rn
Main thing is prioritizing RO
I feel like that’s not as uncommon as ur making it out to be
Everything else is secondary
Wait lwk I think it’s pretty common I was sharing a bath room with my sister and unc
Yeah that's why I'll take gh if I get Zon
2 bath
I'm alr interviewing for fall anyways
1 for parents
why not just take zon if you get zon?
Yea isn’t it pretty normal?
Idk how I feel about it
Ye it's gotta be 1 bathroom for every bedroom imo
I'm fall
I thought so but I said it yesterday and these guys were confused 😭
Fuck I meant every 2 bedrooms
Why cuz of data necessity
which office is it for?
It’s tanking cuz of anthropic
Seattle AWS
wait lwk like when I was at zon everybody was just rich I was lwk surprised for interns
I'm fr failing ngl
if you dont mind me asking asking whos recruiter?
Think about the upside if you join now when stock is low and the saas fud dies out
And stock pumps
Lowkey
zon interviews super rng, espically seattle
They do a good chunk of rsu and they’ll ipo soon ish
Murder little kids vs data company
Hopefully
Hard choice
Full remote too
Hubspot if you play ur cards right can be better comp than a lot of companies tbh
😭 I’m not meche so it’s ok I’ll build ai agents or sum
Peace only comes from death
U can live in the middle of no where Texas for 2k/m
And be taking home 160-180 from hubspot
I mean u can move to nyc when ur rich
Man imagine living in your 20s bum fuck no where
Saving money just to die and hold half of it
Bury me w it
High paying is like 1M
Nah it’s one mil pretty common now a days
Unless u cook on a startup and stock goes crazy
laze around
League and goon?
fax
The dream lifestyle
you can do that while having a job too
rec
He’s a known rage baiter dw
wake up at 4pm eat, play games repeat
How can I league and goon for 14 hours a day when I have to work 9-5
Also how can I wake up at 4pm
Fax
get a remote job
U don’t understand the neet lifestyle
Meetings and shi
You’ll get bored ngl
Unless u have kids
most of the things people want to do after early retirement they can just do while having a job
Then maybe it’ll be fun
Goon but more
Well of course but I think most people want to spend time with their kids lmao
Lowk same 💀
live life
^
yuh I like my private gooning sessions
you can
My kids gonna be on LC straight out the womb
Can’t do it during company time
I goon during lunch in the company bathroom
Can you show me
You know those sleep pods zon has around the offices
buy my course and ill teach you
Stop talking bout evil zon
Ok where
zero2sudo on instagram
I want to eat lunch during lunch time
zero2sudo gooned to a minor idk if you want to buy his course
What if sudo only DMs my sister whose a freshman rn
Maybe if she’s a freshman in high school
He’ll be interested
Wait lwk I actually send my sister to collection info from sudo works every time she’s a freshman in college
tell her to message mr boba talks
Ok
free tsla proc
does anyone know how long after interviews you usually get feedback survey from Zon?
he literally has a chaewon job tracker website
Comparaison is the thief of joy!
I have struggled with depression my whole life so there's that lmaooo
sorry I don't mean to doompost
I won't say anything more
I was not aware
but yeah that's how it feels to be swe sometimes
Yeah I feel you, especially when you're in echo bubbles like this server it's hard
joy is the thief of comparision
Wait lwk it really is this bro

im going to use this as my excuse one day
Link
hi lol
Most likely is
hi orzers
WAIT
WHY AM I NO LONGER UNDER CONSIDERATION FOR ZON
I was checking to ensure I was properly pushed to fall bro wtf is this 😭
portal is weird, happend to me to, just ignore it
bro its actually fucking over
wait deadass
is this normal
it happens to everyone
zon portal 🥀
@plucky pagoda you pushed to fall?
they gave me a call
keep in mind I alr had summer intv
some ppl with OA passed got email saying they could email to push
that's not what happened to me
ppl say the same thing about amazon
real
yeah
it kind of sucks for self esteem
c1 is goated
People will say this about anything bruh
how long does it usually take to get the feedback survey
For which comp
front end engineering
a bit weird/diff from usual procs here ig
zon front end?
rare pull
lowk messed up interview 😭
really?
in the sense of what
😔
basically less positions to give out?
or ig, higher bar for interviews
theres less hc for sure
idk what were your ints like
damn
techs: concepts, "design a widget", and LC but in JavaScript
oh and also behaviorals
so it was like implement smth in react?
no
for anyone who's interned at tesla before, dyk if there's onboarding /training during the internship itself, or is it before
plain vanilla js, css, and html
oh interesting
it was all in livecode
LC in JavaScript is some devious shi
it is what it is
was there a client that could render it?
nope
damn raw js and no preview
what kinda frontend int lol
wdym?
eh ig idk how frontend ints usually go, but mostly what ive seen is implement xyz in react
i mean idk honestly, they gave me a DFS + graph traversal kind of question
nope
so i implemented a map and stack thing but lowk had no idea what I was doing (fully)
idk... it was honestly so bad
and so this was in addition to the widget design?
yeah i wouldnt read into the follow-up, i didnt receive it until after getting my offer despite it supposedly coming on mondays
6 business days
ah
i'm lowk so paranoid because i've seen on reddit people do (supposedly) pretty good
and still get rejected
tho this is for SDE (doesn't really matter, but still)
so idk
is the job id 3066439
ye
gotchu
no i was just curious
oh fair
i don't
one of them was from arizona
the other i think was west coast
i didn't get team before int
interesting
your interviewers are typically the team you'd be on
oh interesting
idk the job posting said seattle
yea i see that thats why i asked
ah ok
seattle just takes hella interns in general tho
are you a freshman
makes sense
bc if so then c1 is quite good
ok but ur a freshman
I didn't even recruit last cycle bc I didn't feel like it
dude if you dont take zon ur making the biggest sell ever
take? Homie I gotta get the interview
I had my reasons and I'm not going to get into it
i signed
I had an internship last cycle so yeah
I just didn't recruit
ah ragebaiting then I see
wait act
ah
can I DM you about your proc
@plucky pagoda is c1 fr 71/h
like how you felt about the ints?
C1 NY specifically
dallas richmond=59, mclean=65, nyc=71, chicago, somewhere in between
theres also stipend
are stipends usually given as a lumpsum or does it come with contingencies
lumpsum
so its basically a signing bonus?
yea you can say that
alr
Less for me actually, since I'm 8 weeks
my rec legit told me since u live in dallas, take the money and throw a party with it
quarter late start
though I know a few people who are doing late start so it's not abnormal
isnt dallas/tx in general vlcol
depends on where u live in dallas
wait are you junior?
oh is it like
the newer suburbs are cheaper but the older more established are more
exactly
yea my friend told me that
this is unironically me this upcoming cycle 😭
newer suburbs are out of city though so more commute time
anyone know if c1 is still hiring
ive been thorugh 3 cycles of recruiting already and i dont want to do it again
onboarding is already pretty much done with bc checks and other stuff, it would be very tight
lowkey just delay grad by 2 more years and grind internships out
i should do my onboarding soon skull
for anyone who's interned at tesla
Bro thats cap c1 is good
hedonic treadmill + imposter syndrome
c1 cant get fall procs🥀
@plucky pagoda have you had any luck with c1 for fall apps?
R u a junior
yea but planning on delaying grad by year
Then ur chilling
wait also btw i feel like
company prestige in general is very different from its resume vlaue
a lot of very cool/prestigious companies have basically 0 resume value bc theyre unknown to recruiters
zon and c1 have huge resume value for swe despite being clowned on so much
what companies hire winter?
Zon is my dream
Anyone have advice finding housing in SF in nob/russian hill for the summer for a 3 month lease that's not super expensive?
ur fucked homie
Dang 😭
I just got my offer recently 🙁
rent out someones room
why does it have to be those two areas?
Yes that could be an option but where do I find those people?
u could maybe look outisde sf and commute in
It doesn't have to be, but I prefer those areas because that's where most people live, where bars, etc are at
tenderloin is close to both actually
Preferably not haha
I do not want to live in tenderloin 🙂
It's quite unsafe
whats ur budget
if you're the most dangerous on the block nowhere is dangerous
Well I have a 11k stipend for 3 months
So anything within that range.
that'll turn into like 7 after tax
No, it's a lump sum!
it's 11k after tax?
It's already been taxed is what the recruiter told me.
oh i misread, 11k is pretty good
yes!
for 3.6k u can get anything within reason
Yep for sure, but I'm trying to save on money if I can haha, would rather not want to spend all of it if possible
u can easily live in russian hill, may not have ur own bathroom tho
furnishedfinder typically
ok sweet thanks!
as long as u dont care ab having ur own bath u can spend <2.5k/mo
Would you guys also know if there are specific company-specific discord servers where I can try finding people?
and if u want smth cheap u can do like flex 3b/1b
I would rather have my own bath, but it's not the biggest deal yep
facebook market place too
I haven't done fall apps. It's only Zon cuz they pushed me
when is the best time to post "the proud to announce" linkedin post
a tuesday
is tuesday lunchtime optimal
idk abt the time just tuesday.
aight
day 1
of internship
sayin this is my first day at being a crudbob at cscd
we dont' hire crudbobs
day 1 already passed big bro this my 453rd crudbobbing at cscd
holy smoke ive been in this server since may 2024
who do u hire then? d1 wells fargo interns?
this is my 703rd day crudbobbing
bars
cscd is everyone everyone essentially
all of cscd is everyone everyone
yes
specificallty wells fargo quant interns
sorry i read that as what percent of ppl here at cs majors and was boutta asy
but now my reading comprehension got turned on and
id assume like 5% lol
yeah but if we could adjacent of like
ds
and comp e
and allat
its like prob 80-90%
where's the wells fargo trading intern \
i was more talking about hte % of current or past us students
the majority of people you see making it to a crazy company are probabyl at least aware this discord exists
prob more but its hard to get metrics like that
are they in it? probably not they have better things to do
according to the wise goggle ai
so like 25% of cs majors in the US are in this server
thats kinda crazy
surely less tho
yea
yea
wow
@acoustic knoll != @light shore
😢
im ok with being a goober... but calling me a geezer PLUS loser
thats too far man
How many lc is enough
1 or 350
100 easy + 50 med + 25 hard
until you reach the point that if you do any random tagged for whatever proc your in you can solve in <30 mins
