y the hell am i seeing ppl with like 10000 internships and no ft
they do just larping
oh π
or they suck
if u have like 10000 internships im p sure u dont suck that bad
i get a feeling he knows he doesn't suck
oh that is true
there's no way he thinks he is cooked with that many internships
true
Ngl i know people with that many internships struggling for ng
yeah me too
yeah but it doesn't seem like the case for him
Praying
i think he just wants validation
for having that many internships
could be wrong tho
no its cuz ik ppl have like hella internships so compared to my 3 thats like very little
2/10 ragebait ill give u that
"dead end swe" as a ui ux
Ok man
i thought he said he was frontend
yep, listen to this guy ^
"picking the next generation" as if hes a recruiter for msft exploreπ
u right
sudo is fine tho, he can guilt trip soemone to giving him a referral cuz he basically helped get them internships
and ft roles
but its not like YOU need it; theyre doing all those internships for more experience/finding out what they wanna do etc
you already hit where you wanna be
did yall also get 3 emails for tiktok's OA π
yuh
weird
i also have 3 assessments
i thought tiktok oa was post res screen
no way, i larped 4 insane trading projects and bullshitted my resume
no way they would give me an OA if post screen
Getting Zon freshman/sophomore year genuinely changes the trajectory of your career
what are they
honestly dude, it hurt so much getting msft rejection after final rounds
how hard are their interviews
for explore
i havent touched any leetcode since then and i have no motivation to do any cs after that rejection
look at his tagbro
hes set
do u need 600
for interview
on gca
oh wth
this server is useless just people trying to stroke their ego
bc they dont get enough from their friends and family
^^^^^
bro spittin
bc they have no social life
If I apply to TikTok fall and fail
so they rely on cscd to make them feel whole
i think so
ur applications reset every 6 mos
actually u might be chilling
since that would be around november
i think they still int then
yeah idk
I'll just wait for summer app
How do you skip oa?
unless they pull a quant and send out internships for summer early
I've given up on quants π₯
like why is optiver in such a hurry for 2027 interns π
u gave up? i havent ever even had that cross my mind coming from a t250 school in alabama
Youβre probably him
I have no prev bro
You have deepmind prev
oh hes really deepmind?
fuh naw
amazon w......
@noble lion
so true goat
nvidia, some yc startup, and some buns startup
One day zon will save me
but like the 2 startups i genuinely did nothing they were so buns
better late than never
just relax then youre set
dont listen to this poseur.....
are your guys jobs just straight vibe coding
yo π
everyones job atp is vibe coding
its not an insult anymore
π₯
real
I see a lot of people are interested in Codex and claude code skills
On Job description
for like frontend/backend stuff or like anything specific
i dont know just look at job descriptions atcompanies
if you look at 5-10
i bet 2-3 will mention claude code codex or mcp server
they'rej ust using buzzwords in reality most people dont even use the skills tbh
i mean u can
maybe it'd be better
How long does Tesla take to get back for r2?
Howβd you get the startup job
linkedin post
and dm
the whole startup was vibe coded im so srs
Lmao
i definitely notice people just really want AI
atleast in my exp
Itβs really bad bro
idk how its like at other peoples companies and experiences
Like even just looking at new opensource projects thereβs so much tech debt
Can you refer me
I need a job π₯Ή
yes ima refer this whole server
yall just don't understand
What kind of LinkedIn post tho π
Sorry Iβm trying to get startup job
yea who tf actual codes
My dick is hard for startups
it was basically just like "we're looking for interns" typa post
and i applied and then they dmed like a week after
for the yc startup i just cold emailed the founder and got int
my friend did the same and also got int
Doo you have orz school or smth
What do u even cold email though
Just like hey look at me
I am so smart
Umm like target ig
lock in bro
aura
no way
dude cursor falling off
their models need to save em
composer pretty good i heard tho
do yall use bitwarden or 1password?
My brain
sad
bro helium is such a good browser
ive been using zen for like the past 6 months
but helium so fucking fast
i love it
crappp
should I apply to a job before or after a recruiting event
like I see open roles and the companies are coming to my school tomorrow, im debating if I should wait or come to the event having already applied
before i think and if theres an option to say how u heard abt this role see if u can put the event
Alright, thx ill try to do that
how long is a share valid
Idk
6 mo
u can do 3 oas in 6 months
does it kill battery like arc
Crazy
im connected rn so idk. thats the main reason i switched off arc. i switched to zen which still killed battery a bit but not horrible but it was slow bc firefox based. all helium is basically degoogled chrome so its actually faster and probably uses less battery than chrome
its so fucking fast
arc would kill my battery deadass on my m1 macbook air in like 2 hrs
so shit
dude
it feels so fucking smooth
for helium
does helium have drm
its everything i want in a browser tbh
helium so goated
nooo
arc is trash
just switch to chrome bro if u need that
i needa switch off it
theres an extension
is helium fr that good
its everything i want tbh; just a browser that is fast, no bullshit bloat
reccomendations?
r u sponsored by helium
nah i just switched today
i like the zen/arc ui better
thats it
u need to download a password manager so that was the only annoying part for me
I thought they did after 180 days
oh seriously
companies set the expiration limit they accept iirc
cant i just add a pw manager in the src ifi wanted
yeah
prolly
its open source
but i just used bitwarden extension
ive never used anything but the native shit
but i just exported to bitwarden and it was easy
google starting to pmo with all the ai browsers
Ramp stay in touch rejection email auto?
27x π
What is Zon fall HC at rn
67
Whatβs the closest yall have been to getting a job but gotten rejected
yeah
its auto vro
https://www.linkedin.com/posts/gautam-desai-595626110_you-need-to-be-prepared-for-any-type-of-swe-activity-7452465213037170689-ROQm are you serious π
You NEED to be prepared for any type of SWE interview.
Just grinding NeetCode isn't enough anymore.
One of my students Kevin (last name redacted) just got into the interview process with xAI.
The recruiter told him that the interview will be fully focused on projects, without any LeetCode or System Design rounds.
I'll admit it - the hard par...
dont know how real this is but literally what do you even do anymore
Just get good ig
helium is SO GOOD
its so fast
ive been using it for a month or two now
Ok
But like honestly I like this
I feel like weβve lost the point of software engineering
The point is to make good software
Not do leetcode or system design
just be an ai native
ur tapped. when i first downloaded it a month ago i couldnt switch bc it wouldnβt let me download extensions
what? i thought extensions carried over from chrome/were easy to tap into
unless youre on linux/i could be detached
im still on windows
it was being weird i saw a github issue
bro im so confused in this ai coding world. how tf do u get super cracked at swe. like genuinely i dont learn unless im coding with my hands but then ur way less productive
prob
Yo anyone got the map for zon lp / behavioral
remebering good principles
good architecture
and implementing them correctly
i dont know any of this shit ive never had a job.
this one is good right? Designing Data-Intensive Applications
Too many LNs to read
Books are such a waste of my time smh
then wtf do i do
π
idk so many people get stuck in the "what am i supposed to do" thinking phase these days
just go and do something
if it doesn't work
try something else
thinking about the optimal solution ends up wasting more time than trying out many different solutions
About this
What should I do to save my procless career
I need to find some Vietnamese who do fake marriage business π
lol
one of my friends told me their mom wanted them to marry a fob
and the other family was willing to pay like 10k
the marriage was in name only
Wait what is fob
Ye if only my parents decided to give birth to me here
you'll make it
there's tons of intl swes
thaat are here in america
if they can make it so can you
make some software that helps ur country. how is the market there?
or just sell to americans
I'd say less cooked
I got a job there last year
ur incoming quant anyway
π
How would that help
skill diff
π
@noble lion wow the elo system actually made it cohesive
Tiger 3 can u marry me
im taken

pins
i love you
inf supply of this at purdue
What is abc π
american born chinese
π
i think abc generally refers to just american born asians
but yea chinese too
aba maybe
I see
fr?!
Helpful advice π
any alpha trading going on in here?
yea
hey
@mellow saffron what have you done today
donβt make me summon ayman
so much
so much == nothing?
π
π
hey be nice, me and mythra just used the ebt method today
Mythra r u gmi
define gmi
Happy with ur life
oh iβm very happy in the trap with heisenberg
That's good
unironically probably just start looksmaxxing
and get married for greencard
How would that help
True π§
then u can apply without sponsorhip
he lowk got oara
i think talent density and tc
Baka...
doest xai pay hella
Oh I see
So what is it good at kanu
Is it true that you need some Olympiad and good pubs to work there
i think pubs is true for all good research roles
u jus tgotta be cracked
do everything
Me mogging my interviewers got me zon
how do i get db/ramp proc
waterloo
no not from waterloo π
no be waterloo
how much does school and prev matter for them
i think for db u need good prev
is waterloo hiring
lots
idk about ramp ngl
is incoming at li enough
who knows
theres some db people in this server u can try reaching out ig
they def know better
which quants have apps that came out already
just did my first codeforces problem
now get 1500 rating
optiver is out?
well ik they're giving out reachouts
they had dinners earlier this year too and i think people got reachouts from that
So true
Great advice coming from tiger 9
how do you get linkedin reachouts
i mean i havent gotten linkedin reachouts so im not the best person for this, but i guess hyperoptimize linkedin and interact with others on the platform
get your name out there, put a bunch of keywords on your page, that stuff
my optiver dinner thing came as an email so i guess i was in the system
didnt go so I missed out on generational wealth
how did they get your email?
good school and prevs
should i update my linkedin to incoming company?
and have a network at the companies/industry u want reachouts from
i didnt start yet tho
yea most ppl do
i applied to their internships last year
so idk
then prolly not
no
If I say none for this would they think I'm a bum π
is that enough for an internship

Prob
I think they only care for the purpose of expediting your proc if needed
just say you dont want to disclose the stages I would just be honest about late stage procs
Wdym
MUSTARD
So for late procs we should say we don't want to disclose?
I wouldn't be specific about interviews or stages, only if ur late stage you do want to disclose
Ye but I currently have no procs π₯
like for example I told Palantir I was in final rounds for other processes and need expedited process and they scheduled within 2 hours
so just say none
Does that hurt tho
no
u r a bum
Lol
no but they dont care its there only to expedite if u need
Hrt on site final
I see
you aren't making this up though
π
I am not bro
he is not
how many of the top people are actually cracked vs how many are larpers
somone ik j got told they hit hc and got fall application
like i'm trying to figure out if the top candidates are just really good at passing interviews and making good resumes and what not or if they're actually cracked
for startups
π₯
if anybody knows more about this pls lmk
yes stripe interns are all cracked and hrt interns are ngmi
i work at a startup
just funny
Why would it be
Lol
i'm trying to think like
how do i make myself as marketable as possible to startups
Just work on relevant stuff
Tbh
you're right
i'm thinking what's better for that
open source or making projects
or both
open source >>
i used to it's fun
working w others?
you learn a lot but it's harder to contribute nowadays because of all the AI slop PRs
you have to really get yourself out there to filter through the slop
mimics the workplace in the way that you do some code change
some person reviews
might say change this and that
if you contribute enough you're basically a part of the company
ngl thats goated
ok fire
depends what company
just spin 10 agents to go do open source pr's for u
claw pls finish this open source project make no mistakes
the thing is though no one likes reading AI slop PRs
and its usually obvious when its AI slop
so you also learn how to make good PRs
opensource is actually so goated
like you're forced to right amazing code
because if you don't it just won't get merged
you have to really put hella effort into every PR
bro tiktok code signal was such bsπ
like it's so easy to just one shot some ai app nowadays
is it not normal gca
the third question was the longest fucking question ive even seen in a gca so i couldnt finish it
bruh
its supposed to be
but its a question bank and i think i got unlucky
question 1,2,4 were all standard algo questions
but quest 3 i had to build a libabrly managing system with acquisition check out and reclassify
shit was so fucking long
bro 4 questions in a hour is doable if its normal length questions
not questions were ur building a whole fuckign system
i shared my 559
guess im cooked
it just gave me a 500
ALSO MY REFERRER REFERED TO THE WORNG FING ROLE
Bro holy shit
yo wtf
bc i wouldnt solve that long ass quuestion
this is like 400 zons
this guy is goated
UCLA peak
thats prob good enough bruh
i didn't know UCLA could do that
there are actually quite a bit of ucla alumni at oai
im sitting at the edge with 500 π
noob
use the chinese method fr
only behind like 7 other top unis like berkeley stanford, etc
gang it doesnt matter where he wentπ
i didn't think of UCLA as an engieering school though
its engineering is pretty strong lol
he prob coulda done this from any decent school lmao
ucla has pretty good engineering
yeah
this is just some shit you usally see from a Stanford kid
u not getting ts from enrolling in ucla if ur not already crackedπ
i'm just t5 pilled
u are lmfao
cracked kids from ucla have roughly equal results to stanford
and other t5
he prob is stanford level but chose ucla for other reasons
cuz at that point ur school ranking matters way less than ur own capability
exactly
mog
i know ppl from hs that are top schools cuz they grinded
but their abilities are chud level
top school doesnt always mean cracked
yeah
lowk matters
i dont think everyone in stanford cs finds jobs lol
how did he go from Zon to OpenAI?
def not
cs is like a top 5% takes 99% of offers type of deal
ts pretty common
u only see the cracked on ur linkedin feed lmap
how though
KP orz
i don't understand what differientiates this kid from everyone else
man if only i got zon id be him
good skool
but i'm trying to think what is he even grinding
im such a retrd
likely
bro thinks u have to be a fucking prodigy to get into oai
u do
yeah
its just like any other company
bro no
no its not
i heard oai only hires nobel lauretes
but they have so many people who want in
ok?
the demand is so much higher than supply
i just said
therefore they can pick the best of the best
the point is that openai can literally pick anyone
finally someoen sane
then who are they taking
they have a stack rank system yes
it also matters how early u got the int and did the int
earlier the better
then it comes down to prevs + school
yeah
bro this guy trolling
openai is banked right
prev + school pill is brutal
do you have alpha?
imagine passing intvs just to get prev + school mogged
whats pinterest new grad salary?
unfortunately stack rank pill is a hard one to swallow
how do i get access to this?
number of ppl who do well enough on the int is def more than their headcount
so youre basically saying openai only hires nobel laurete caliber people and people who cheat
so there is some way to pick after that fs
its very common a lot of oai level competent ppl need zon as a stepping stone internship to get to their market value
bumping
i got stack rank mogged at sofi
https://www.interviewdb.io/ this should lowkey be pinned in this server
Ace your next job interview with curated questions from InterviewDB, including exclusive content from forums like 1point3acres.
ts was so brutal
also spoonman its an internship its not like this is a post training RL infra role for senior+
i'm thinking though if you didn't have the school or the prev how you could get into openai
what would be the plan
nobel laurete or cheat
zon is good enough to get u the proc. better school def improves the odds of this too. what school was that guy u sent?
u couldnt
what is this question
oai stack rank is about to hit
????
i also think you go to a t5 and everyone around you is making an extreme amount of money so you're in kind of a bubble
i dont go to a t5
im just telling the reality of the situation
my school getting mogged immediately
this person had a good school, good prev
did well enough to pass one of the harder interviews out there
UCLA
and got the offer
that's good enough
do people actually do this
why would someone without the school or the prev believe they deserve an oai proc?
please make it make sense
WE will be doing this
i heard oai only hires nobel laurete people or people they deem to be nobel laurete caliber
i'm just thinking if you wanted to skip steps in theory how could you
i guess some cheaters are able to sneak through the filter
tesla js dropped fall i thinl
r u laurier as well?
yea UCLA + zon def clears bar to get the oai proc
holy cap
ts ragebait
this is what a recruiter told me
ah
if they're talented and actually can codemog everyone else who's applying?
yeah idk how that guy did it
the real answer is to a very large extent, u cant. if u go to some t1000 and no prevs and u wanted oai proc and u grinded like 20 hrs every day to learn ML or wtvr the fuck
he's got aura though
0 prevs no name school -> OAI
u didnt try hard enough in hs to get into a good college
"we look for people who can potentailly end up a industry leader or is a industry leader"
well a recruiter told me they only hire people who meow really loud in the interview
recruiter told me this at a career fair
did u do final round?
if they were talented they would be identified first and given a chance, thats what recruiters are for
i go to a pretty good school i'm not asking for myself i'm just thinking in theory
i think its luck honestly too
i just declined my offer last week, so there should be one more spot for yall
t1000 -> zon -> smt a bit better than zon -> OAI intern
ZON is the saviour of all swes
dam bru references? what would that even look like
past managers etc
or i think so
fuhhh boi whatchu declining oai for π
i know, im saying on average someone like that would have 0 chance. even if they "codemog". to a large extent u cant just replace ur past failures with more hardwork rn, those things stay with u and will negatievly affect u such as a bad school
it will take a LOT of work
this has got to be troll
i had competing and my recruiter knew about it
why do ppl think they can start on a clean slate
eh
i see. i did final round 2 weeks ago so i feel like def getting stack ranked rn
if u dont agree w that ur coping btw
im not saying its impossible its just a lot lot harder
yeah that's fair
i also don't like the fact that you have to go through a ladder to get what you want even if you already have the skills
that stays with u
i want to get rid of the ladder
that's just life bro
its a good chunk of luck too
how do you know if your codesginal gca has been verified and sent to the company?
bro another guy posted this exact screenshot a week ago
u don't
did u have to finish all 5 parts to get offer that fast?
π
you guys do know that there is a good chunk of high school dropouts working at these top labs
he took my screenshot
the only way to check is
this isn't binary
if u can share it
the only real way to check is if u get another gca and its shareable
to another company
it's obviously not impossible
i did two parts
unfortunately that is how the world works
yeah these r the prodigies
how many parts was the question in total
they are the exception not the rule
that's my point
Not sure, i assume 2
i got CD question
you don't have to go through the ladder
idt they are the average profile of an employee at oai
it's not mandatory
bro
those who know π
if ur top 0.000000001% sure
ur suggesting a top 0.0000001% existence
that's a lot of 0s
continuous deployment?
no like the file directionary one
i'm not saying i'm cracked like that btw π
no that's ci/cd this is just ladders
guys, no you cant get into ultra prestigious firms such as amazon unless you have top tier background, i have to agree with @narrow sierra and @opal needle here
oh. i see. like cleaning up the path name?
but i'm just saying that the ladder isn't mandatory
Didnt u say u got denied from zon
such as amazon π
yeah
I'm not even joking I would be happy w zon
why how many parts did you get?
yeah, unless you go to a target like waterloo of uPhoenix you don't even stand a chance for FAANG+
no that was someone else probably
how dare you be satisfied with $200k a year out of college
Me walking past u
there is one with 5 parts ifykyk
this is unironically a hot take in this server
i got the flower infection one and got done w like 4/5 parts
this gotta be ragebait
5 parts is diabolical
is each part like 5 lines
just a prestige thing
more to life man
genuinely
the first part is a bit, but everything after is a couple changes tbh
Unironically thought that was impossible 3 months ago now i want more than 200k out of college. Its never enough
honestly i'm not sure
is it worth
or should i reroll
ppl say 4/5 is the bar π congrats on the offer
Before zon accepted i was goin for 80k out of college
i mean the first was like 35 lines and then u add like maybe 5-10 lines per part, but the hard part is thinking abt the things u actually need to change
you donβt have to go through this ladder if ur cracked ye but on the off chance you arenβt, just start climbing, as non prodigies need this prestige to βproveβ themselves
me after 5 minutes on levels.fyi
Literally
hi
I suggest emailing your recruiter to expedite, my recruiter was very accomdating
tbh if ur not $300k out of college ur probably a failure
dont get my hopes up like that bro
not even hard....
well yeah but that's before tax
mfs will see quant salaries for the first time then say they expecting 500k out of college
this guy just said 200k isnt hard
500k
fuck you......
i feel like everyone here is an astroturfing bot
i hypothesize that if you can find a way to clearly market how cracked you are even without good prevs you can get openai and anthropic level procs.
why would you judge me for this super serious statement
I lived in a slum half my life and now im talking about 200k tc
there isnt references for intern
all it took was solving a couple LC meds
i think hard cap is 600k, but the real cap is 400k(HRT), otherwise there's a cap at 200k but most people waver in 70-130k i'd wager
π
yes
Fr bro
only ng+
if you can clearly indicate that you are better than the average openai employee even without prevs somehow i bet you can get hired @opal needle
what if u only have like 1 legit prev.. do they want like research lab PI or smth?
i don't have insurance
my friends hrt was 450k + 80k signing
honestly idk much about quant offers i just see the insane ones
but sounds about right
no
not even 600 lol
How do the rsuβs vest
one insurance pls
im afraid that if ur like straddling the bar, pressing them to speed up results in reject rather than offer
i mean i agree but i cant
i donβt get this whole ordeal bro
only if it's covariant in the output
ur actually right tho this guy is a bum
because this ladder mindset is just sheep thinking honestly
this year new grad
those who graduate π
My boy got point72 hes 200k+ tc not even outof college π₯
if you're cracked then figure out a way to leverage that
they should call it point67
yeah its just infra swe
don't waste years working for some company you hate just to get "prestige"
Spoonman do u have internship yet
nah i'm doing procs
i'm not saying i'm cracked like that
tbh i wouldnt mind 530k new grad tc for infra swe, its a little low but ig ill just have to live in a shittier part of town tbh
how else am I supposed to post an obvious decision in #1337377872112779264 to farm aura points in CSCD???
@neat moth can i dm
deciding between databricks NG and Crudbob @ OAI for summer 2028
I posted my acceptance on my snap story to aura farm
crudbob fs
databricks ngmi
vlog the vibecoding journey
Fr
what about datadog
u geek me bro
im down
datadog is fire
so bricks are ngmi but dogs are gmi
do cats have procs
pick your poison
i wanted to do this but then i didnt get another actual contesting offer for summer π π
ts so true
no its just a lot of cope
u claim to seek leverage
my main options were $25 CAD and $40 USD + intern perks
but prestige is the easiest leverage there is
doing well in high school to get into a t20 is the lowest effort highest return thing u can do
guys should i work for janestreet + citsec 20 billion dolar summer+fall or do shopify?
u have to be larping
what leverage is there to gain
what network
what kind of a opportunities will u have
as a t1000
?
its just a whole lot of cope
I had a weird proc season but I got burned on my really good procs
yea
been bro I've seen ur posts in #daily-progress surely you got smt better than $25 cad
π
tbf mine were like $17 an hour in kentucky or $27 at my incoming
in Canada
yeah $40 USD
almost had san jose bro im so pissed i fumbled that proc
i do think u were right about the lowering the variance with FAANG idea
nah I mean here
My best canadian proc was squarepoint but I bombed R2
bro chill been we need talented individuals in this country
it wasn't hard and i absolutely should've landed an offer
accept the fr
make Canada great again
what leverage do u have as a 25 yr old unemployed person who "codemogs"
R1 was actual leetcode and compiler speak and we went 30 minutes over time discussing my project impl
guys
been when u make it at least invest in our sovereign wealth fund π
R2 was reading from CSV and using the datetime module
compiler speak?
are internships hard π
which i've never done before
brutal
failing on that shi
after
this is my first real internship
doing the LC
and im super nervous about the work
$17 in Kentucky bro
they'd need to pay me millions
i larped compilers a bit but one of my projects on res is literally called "BeensFirstCompiler" which was my 2nd hackathon win. Interviewer thought i was taking compilers at the time(last fall) but I told him i'm taking it next sem, but I knew a little so he quizzed me on some fundls. I got most of the questions right but I fucked up some of the trivia
to live in Kentucky
thats like 400k NG in sf
LOL
....
its ok im sure your exp will be good
im in zon so i acutlaly might be yelled at too
how is everyone getting faang for their first internship?
is there a secret method i was lacking
flexed and dipped
leak method
agentic todo list
or odin projet
pick ur poison
