No problem!
@orchid nebula - Link got expired. Can you please send it again?
Yeah sure!
This link shouldn’t expire
for process tracking, can we get a number instead of <5, 5-10, >15? and also one for intern one for new grad?
yup should be released end of month
ayee lets goooooo
Can we open the 2022 intern process thread?
scroll up like 5 inches
Ah, thanks. My bad

:pepoG:

Ban @strange fable for advertising

@slow elm we can continue our convo here if you want about moderation stuff
Can't think of much more atm, implementing something like Carlbot would be handy and opening up applications for moderators and ensuring they're in different timezones
As well as having a #853449023972311040 or #off-topic that is potentially more heavily moderated
bumping my request for :pepoG:

when is 2022 intern process is going to be available?
Just curious and no worries if it’s still in development 🙂
Y not roles for grad year?
<@&699116154983153824> thoughts
I agree
it was kinda fine to get rid of 2021 summer channel probably
i just wondered if ppl were still using it to discuss their current internships and such
nah was pretty inactive relative to other chan
@faint marten agree with kobebean and was going to say the same thing lol. Its really helpful to see when the process for a company started and ended and who has had experience interviewing at a company
i’ll make a public archived category
we can disable reactions
the issue before is that people would use those channels to talk about random things
its disabled now to streamline conversation into the correct channel
any chance we can get sort by each column in process tracking sheet? not so useful rn cuz there's only 40 companies but im guessing itll prob be a helpful once there's a lot more added to the sheet
Maybe allow threads to work in the process channels? That way you keep everything concise still, while still fostering public discussion about people's applications/interview processes (which I honestly find to be one of the most helpful things in this server)
Also you can congratulate people which is really nice and helps build a positive and supportive community (which is definitely my absolute favorite thing about this community)
And ngl makes you feel really good after all the work we all put in
@faint marten
huh so threads kinda work
first message is auto deleted, but any following messages aren't
you can just make your own copy of it and then sort that
oh wait is there a link to the excel sheet? didnt see
why can't we sort on https://www.cscareers.dev/process-tracking/2022-new-grad T_T
ill add
thank you daddy joey
What is the point of the applied column in the tracking site
How do we update that?
when u submit process tracking through the site u can do applied
ill add it to the discord interface tonight
Dope
referrals channel?
no
Joey have good reasons why we shouldn’t have referral channels. It doesn’t help ppl at the bottom.
^^^
Unfair advantage for people who are already established in tech/whose parents have connections imo
I wish referrals weren't a thing
imo referrals in this situation are helpful as long as trading isn’t allowed. while referrals exist, they are mainly circulated around the same circles. having a place to offer referrals would let people who would normally have no connection to big n, get a referral from someone outside their socioeconomic circles
I agree that referrals themselves are flawed, but the only way to improve them is my by sharing them with people who don’t have the economic or social ability to pursue connections at big n companies
And this is a platform where that can happen
But how are referrals helping ppl established if it's a channel in a discord where you could offer them to anyone in need lmao
That's ass backwards
If anything it's opening up the opportunity for people who couldn't normally get a referral to potentially get one
You could at least maybe get the input of the discord instead of shoving your opinion down everyone's throats and just saying no 🤷♂️ but hey I'm just a believer of democracy
no ♥️
Here's a good server suggestion: instead of just shutting people down bc "my discord my rules", actually take people's input and have a productive conversation :) it helps no one when the leadership of this server isn't willing to give any reasoning to anything and is not transparent.
Maybe consider having a polling system for server changes instead of believing a team of 3/4 knows what's best for a server of 20k people
Also maybe up the admin team to not just 4 people who are all your friends 🤷♂️
I mean it's his server so it's his rules tbh, no point trying to argue that
i don't think you can reasonably compare "owner of a discords server doesn't want a certain channel" to "this means anyone who agrees with that wants a dictatorship"
Considering the membership of this discord is comparable to a small city, it's definitely beyond just being a random discord server
But go off!
? I am not taking a side here my dude, don't know why you're being so passive aggressive
if anything, i'm the one who advocated for the referral channel in the CSM server to heavily discourage trading (which was one of the main arguments against a referral channel here)
I'm just giving you counter arguments, not sure how that's passive aggressive lol
I thought everything below this was implicitly passive aggressive but that's just me I guess
If that's how you wanna interpret it be my guest lmao
Ain't my problem
🍿
@faint marten thoughts?
no referral chan
i feel like it provides more negatives than pros
and pivots the community in a direction i don’t want it to be in
thoughts?
Also thoughts?
Sounds good I'll ping you tomorrow 👍
You have such a way with words joey
not sure why you are so passive aggressive
i don’t owe u anything lol
if u don’t like the server, leave lol
Never said that, just don't like how you run things
And I'm happy to speak out
I like the other people tho
that’s fine

referral when
dm @main wadi for referral 🙂
who
Air bread and breakfast
they went out of business
The bot in process tracking should reply with pog emoji when an offer is given
we should do a bunch of emojis haha
i think we need to have the emojis on our server though
pog, what other emotes shoudl we have?
that we could use to react on offer msg


Does anyone else think we should remove the apply command bc it dilutes oa/phone/final/offer commands?
Like I'll personally look thru the processing channel to check if companies have started interviewing or doing OAs + to see if any of my friends have gotten an internship (to congratulate them)
And it can be hard to do that when there's a ton of apply commands
Also despite your stance on the referral thing, @slow elm did bring up a good point about doing voting. Maybe for certain ideas/requests we could do server voting to see what people want (like keeping/removing the apply command for ex) @faint marten
You can filter by searching
Fair point lmao
yeah this is the priority over everything else for sure
upvote 
more peepo emotes in general
think i said this earlier too but bot should delete the apply commands after they typed i think 
yeah honestly that's a good middleground
i think this makes sense
i guess my idea was to understand which companies are hiring
but i guess doing OA does the same thing
but someone might apply slightly later relative to apply
yea i think voting or showing interest for a feature or server change is good
but i’m overworking atm and i’m behind schedule with what i had planned
so i don’t have time to commit to more large changes stuff
sounds like you could use more admins
ya true
Dude chill, Joey has done so much for the server
The cs careers new website is all him
Sure we can do stuff better but Joey is literally at full capacity and trying his best
im not sure where i said he didnt
Ur being kinda passive aggressive lmao
Yeah ofc man. Take your time and make sure to get some rest/have fun
no im serious where did i say that lol
.
that was not in response to joey
Lmao bro we are literally trying to provide a nice service
For free
On our own time
.
It’s in response to this discord in general lmao
We are trying to get new mods and we have added Carl to our discor
that suggestion came because he's always saying he's too busy
Like we are literally doing ur suggestions my guy
well he said not now
Honestly @slow elm you make a ton of valid points, but I can see how some of the stuff you say come off as passive aggressive
not that you were trying lol
Yes we will not do referrals ever
if he had said we are trying then my response would be different
We can make this decision
Me and Joey have talked about it extensively
Seen it implemented in other places
And it just doesn’t work
what about it doesn't work?
i'm not even saying I support it lo
i'm more frustrated that y'all make decisions for 20k people without any input from anyone
and don't offer any discussion to us
it's just
I’m happy to talk about this later but literally it only helps people who are on the top
We do ask for insight but we are going to make some decisions on our own
Not everything can be community guided
People have offered reasoning
but not y'all
Bruh moment
and not joey
?
until i pressured more lol
it was literally just no
idk man if I was running a discord I'd probably not give people one word responses to suggestions but that's just me
just doesn't come off great
but it's not my discord so 🤷♂️
U really want a channel of people begging for referrals “Please give me this” and getting mad when it doesn’t work out
again
where did i say i support it? i'm playing devil's advocate lmao
my frustration is the lack of communication
i don't give a fuck about a referrals channel
one way or the other
that's not what i'm arguing at this point
bruh this isn't a polisci class
Yea Joey should’ve said more but also ur stretching when u say this is a dictatorship lmaoo
still about this server my guy lmao
not really, i would have said that if so
Doesn’t matter if u said it to Joey or not?
well yeah
the context kind of matters
considering the guy was saying if you own a server of 20k people u get to make whatever rules you want and i'm like eh
Anyway you can reach out to me if or other mods id you want clarification
Joey doesn’t have to provide all the answers
And it’s unreasonable for u to try to get all them from him
i don't think it's unreasonable to ask for more than 1 word but you're his buddy so i ain't gonna convince you lol
I’m literally have a discussion with you
Happy to go into details about why referrals bad
But I’m 22 and in nyc rn and I’m about to go to a bar so we can talk later
Honestly @slow elm the questions/feedback you're giving is good, but like it comes off as mad passive-aggressive
Also that's a mood
Yeah but it comes off as that way
well it's the internet man
Like I'm not gonna bring up examples or anything
Yeah I agree for sure
you feel?
Yeah
god bless emojis tho
But I think if you practice a bit more on trying to avoid any sort of passive-aggressive language, it'll help in the future
I just feel like people devalue how much time and effort Joey spends into this server
and i meant this in a serious manner
He genuinely cares
i'm not devaluing it i'm just saying if he's spending time working on website shit then there should be someone who should be more focused on server matters
like there's a ton of shit that just flies under the radar
and of course he doesn't have time
that's fine
i'm not saying he should devote his life to monitoring the discord
but my main suggestion that he seemed to push under the rug until you clarified was adding more admins or adding more help
Yeah I agree in that maybe it'll be helpful to bring on some more devs? That way he can sit back and relax a bit more
instead of just letting it devolve
like for a 500 member discord I ran we had 5 admins
the fact that you have 4 for 20k
is just insane
yes but that's still quite a bit for 4 admins no?
especially when one is FT
i get that it's hard to warrant who would actually be a good fit
and you want to add people you trust
Yes and like we said we are actively getting new mods rn
ye i didn't know that until today tho is my point lol
Idk what u want me to say about that lmak
i'm glad you clarified
oh that was forever ago lol
i don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to know status updates
Bro that was like less than 2 weeks ago
Damn they banned alexandra occasio cortez
your point being? it's been like this for more than 2 weeks
i'm surprised that discussion took that long to come up
We implemented Carl bot literally the same day
We are trying our best my guy relax
i'm super relax lol
i'm just talking bruh
maybe it would help to have a changelog? so people knew what was going on?
we should go to magic hour and pull bitches
This is not true at all. The mods' arguments against such a channel seem to be assuming that such a channel would end up being a trading/begging channel but this is a cop-out reason
Nobody wants a referral begging channel, the whole point of one would not be for people to ask, it would be for people to provide
That’s not how it would end up though
how do you think it would end up then?
very one sided similar to the “community” jumpstart had
Exactly as I said that’s how every referral type thing goes without serious gate keeping and referrals are overrated for big companies
Have you seen csmajors referral channel
nope
Literally 0 people asking
^^^
All people offering
The cscareers one is kinda sus tho imo
that’s fine
Like most ppl are looking for trades
yea and i don’t want that
hi
Plus the ones offering probably get overwhelemd in like 10s lmao
but either way, obtaining referrals is not impossible on here
it’s just more focused on building friendships first
that’s my intent with the server
r u my friend joey
yes bestie
cscareers.friends 
I'm gonna give my two cents but tbh I think a referrals channel is pointless because if someone really wanted to give a referral then they could literally just give it away in #2022_grads or intern posts, like it's such a trivial thing that you don't need a whole channel for it lmao or just dm each other I don't see the point in having a channel for it unless @faint marten it's against the rules?
there isn’t a rule but i think it’s by function of us not moderating as much as we need to be for something like a referral chan, we don’t have funding for that channel
err resources*
and we also are trying to keep channel count to a minimum
like i’ve seen referral chan’s in slack communities implemented the way i would want it to be
i’m literally just fried off work in general and am still overworking on stuff
how did they implement it?
Can we add this emoji? https://emoji.gg/emoji/4645-sheesh
@faint marten sorry for the ping but I’m curious to know when intern sharing process is going to be out 🙂
no worries 🙂 I def understand that you r hella busy! thanks for the update !!
Shared my short write-up regarding my thoughts on referrals (and a brief mention of a "channel" people talk about) a while ago on rant channel. It's not something I'm personally invested in and I'm not advocating for a certain course of action on the server but people need to look at all the pros/cons.
https://anonymous.4open.science/r/referrals-in-tech-DC3D/README.md
At the end of the day the server's been a good resource and oddly enough I agree more with this perspective out of everything I've seen people say.
Yeah. Plus it makes people more desperate and care less about making connections instead of just coming to this server to get referrals. This server is one of the few good cs forums where I feel like the community is super helpful and friendly, with not the slightest bit of toxicity
yea this was an early thing admins agreed upon not doing
is there a locations channel for chicago????
!join chicago does nothing but I'm still in some other location channels
any chance that you can add location or region of the people who submit process tracking commands for certain companies like microsoft, so we know which region they're currently sending interviews / OAs to?
probably not sounds like a lot of extra work to support ? i think
also not sure how that could integrate in a process cmd
and how would it even be shown in an aggregate fashion?
Yeah I think the only reasonable thing for that could be like Amazon USA v Amazon Canada
But by region would be a lot of work for not much lol
ah yeah thats true ig most places dont go by region
yea just a lot of BE work haha
BE
BE >> FE ngl
bumping this and also can we get :pepoG:
https://cdn.frankerfacez.com/emoticon/218530/4
already transparent crop ^
Nah
No one will use
Cause the assumption is people are emitting the command in somewhat real-time (maybe a few day buffer)
Like when I receive an oa my thought is to send the update on discord and check how many others got it
And I’ve noticed people have the same trends
Of updating relatively in real time
has the #intern_postings_old channel stopped working?
Few people seem to be using the !process (company) apply feature. Maybe have applications be automatically noted when someone uses another command like reject or oa (if they haven't used apply already)?
i like this idea
i guess we could support this for all steps
e.g. if a user types !process company final
it should mark apply, oa, phone as fulfilled?
Also offer and final round right?
sometimes I've seen people be able to skip steps tho, like for microsoft some ppl get OA and others go straight to phone
And the ceos son gets an offer directly 
well part of the issue is apply is relatively new
at least notify people that putting a scribble on top of a pdf probably doesn't remove their name underneath lol
There are many places (like Apple) where an OA is not usually part of the interview process. Or other cases when you may skip a step in the process for whatever reason.
yep,second this
cscareers Minecraft server when
^^
Are the logins to the job sheets still unavailable?
Hi @faint marten I have an idea for an improvement.
When looking at https://www.cscareers.dev/process-tracking/2022-new-grad, I was trying to look at a specific company quickly.
Of course, I can just command F to search. However, do you think it's a good idea to implement a search bar at the top and filter listings by name?
yea that makes sense
Programming +10
lol you QA'd your own messages
🤫
Is there an app under development for the site? I would like to contribute if possible
i was wondering if u could put the exact name of the position for the postings such as this posting is an data eng or ios eng
where exactly?
oh under discord message postings?
i see we don't do it there
not currently, will have to remain closed source 😦
yes and on the website too
Unless I’m actually blind
yea we have a title attribute
that we can make w/e
by default is SWE intern
i try to modify them respectively to whatever the posting actually is
Appreciate you adding this to the posting !
"Log in/sign ups are currently disabled. Join the Discord for updates."
Is there an issue?
I could not sign up/log in to the https://www.cscareers.dev/
Me neither
Offer debating channel?
Any eta on intern salary thread opening back up?
not sure, depends how im feeling
we still want you to submit your salaries via https://www.cscareers.dev/salary-submission for now
has a swag/merch channel been considered?
Can we get back the !join command?
Is the website open source? I'd love to contribute if it is.
Joey said it’s not open source
what about a front-end prep section? from what i've seen and heard, larger companies are moving away from LC for FEE interviews and are doing more practical + frontend system design type of questions
yea its true for non entry levels
sadly most of the tech companies are just doing the standard leetcode prep
for new grad/interns
Can we add an option to include country in process tracking?
@faint marten curious to ask you about this but would you expand the server for ppl who are looking to go into fte
like ppl who grinding for l5 at google
or will the server be only for interns/new grad ppl
it makes more sense to dive first on a more niche audience
eventually i want to create the website to be what u know as a levels.fyi but for early career
so probably not
def understand! i love the platform that you built so. I was hoping that you extending it for ppl who are past new grade
yea i understand haha i would like it too as i'd benefit from it too
im not even done fully supporting interns/new grads so i just imagine how much more scope is required for everyone else 😅
who knows though :)
def a lot of big things that you haven’t touch yet within internships world! so I’m looking forward to seeing how I can help others in the near future
With what u building!
Is there a channel for negotiation? If not that would be a cool addition. CSMajors discord has a negotiation channel for new grads
Rn I guess we're using the 2022 summer/winter/etc channels for negotiation stuff
Idk if you'd get as much input with a dedicated negotiation channel compared to just the regular channels
Since I think only ppl who are asking for help with negotiation will be checking the negotiation channel
But that's just my 2 cents
Will the new grad salary sharing channel start posting the submissions soon? It would help to know if were getting lowballed
theres negotiation for new grads xd wat the heck
Is the join command broken?
nah its disabled sorrry i should add a message
Are there plans to bring it back?
Nah because majority of channels were dead
can we have a sheet for companies which sponsor and hire international candidates for each region EU,NA, Asia etc. for #international channel ? Do we have already have something like this? We have lots of people here so we can collaborate and prepare a sheet for this. Any opinions? Also if you know any other resource/server for this please inform me. Thanks. 
yo can we tell ppl who got the return offer not to process that
in summer 22 channel
Maybe there should be a return offer command?
It's still good info to know what companies offer return offers + get an idea of how common they are
we plan on addressing this through reviews...similar to what glassdoor does
its on the roadmap™️
i guess that’s true
Maybe incorporate !process apple return
i think that would be beneficial
meh
it would be super small pool of ppl
that would use that
its probably not worth for me to spend eng time on adding that
like for every 1000 process tracking updates , how much would be a return offer
i can figure it out but i know the number wouldnt be that high
( would base off the people that edit their message and add a return offer thing to their discord message)
i would like to get salary sharing out + running
make senses
since lots of people are getting offers now and they need to make sure they arent getting finessed haha
which is going well
the harder challenge is ingesting all of our salary data into a canonical format that fits into our table schema
Can we also bring back the salary sharing channel? I like the website, but I honestly preferred that I could use all of the functionality of the site on the discord. I found the benefit of having stuff on the discord is that it results in people talking about that stuff (a specific salary for example) which is one of the things I found really nice about this server. Like maybe allow users to submit salaries both online or in discord, and display them both in a salary sharing channel and on the website?
Idk how many other people feel the same way tho
yea salaries will be relayed onto the website and the discord
similar to what we're doing with job postings
some people straight up lie on salary sharing
i know cause i also got an offer for new grad in same location and someone posted something that was almost double
which?
dm'd
Are we gonna have cool charts
if i feel like working on it :')
maybe i can just stall it out until december and release the spotify equivalence of recruitng season
YOUR 2021 RECRUITING SEASON WRAPPED
haha
You have been rejected by 532 companies
And gotten 0 offers

yea im not sure if thats the way to frame it haha
maybe we can make a
YOU GOT GHOSTED BY ___ COMPANIES THIS RECRUITING SEASON!
and make it a meme on lnikedin duno
That would be hilarious not gonna lie
You know what would be cool
Making an api
So you could introduce like 3rd party stuff like a Spotify wrapped thing
leetcode bot, when it gives you all the questions and their count, could provide a percentage breakdown too
!problems csc.dev
Fruits into Baskets (10 times) (50%)
Bananas into Barrels (10 times) (50%)
Make it generate an image you can post
Make it so that the leetcode bot and process bot use the same company names
Leetcode bot has JPMorgan
But process has J.P. Morgan
Can we get a Austin channel
a companies discord channel with slow-mode on where people post invite links to discords for interns/new grads at specific companies would be nice
ah gotcha
i was thinking more along the lines of what the csmajors server has, where it’s just a channel with nothing but invite links and people just join company servers using that
yea i understand
not sure how i feel about it
i understand the value add to the person, but will them hopping to another server decrease our activity?
sounds like a loss to our community
that’s fair actually, i think from this servers perspective it would def decrease activity
I guess you could be more comprehensive and add a us-south channel, would cover like atlanta/north carolina/florida
Nah ur only supposed to live in the 4 cities listed
for whatever reason wolverine trading doesn't show up on the bot, but when i try registering it on the website, it says it already has an entry
Could the bot process accept dates?
+1
Can we get a Canada channel in locations?
Negotiation chat channel to post negotiation email templates and get feedback 
ack to all of these
going to revamp how suggestion system works when i have time
in next few days
Ok
How does a channel where people offer their interview experience sound? The experience shouldn’t contain the exact LC questions asked but should give the readers an idea of the interview structure/difficulty
yup this is already on my roadmap
once work settles down i’ll get back to working on these features
Can we get ability to react to messages in the salary sharing channels? (Both intern and new grad)
i dont think so. we had it enabled initially and people would react with condescending emojis for compensations that were on the lower end
that’s so sad and toxic ngl for the ppl that does that
yeah its sad
it even happens in job postings chan too
just at a much lower frequency
ngl that mindset is such turn off from me
It kinda made me wanna switch majors at one point
i dont think ive had a bad in-person interaction with a non new-grad/intern engineer
but again thats just my experience and i know theres a lot of fucked people in this industry
i try to call stuff out that i see for what it is
especially with this platform, i feel an obligation to
I have a suggestion for a channel called "pathways" where people can share a line of companies they worked for up to where they are now and include info about what type of project/team they specialized in throughout the process and maybe even other offers they considered with the one they chose.
A post could be structured like this:
Capital One (Intern - Summer 2019, Infrastructure) -> Amazon, MathWorks, Bloomberg, Google Internships -> Google (Intern - Summer 2020, Advertising Tech) -> Stripe, Google Return, Amazon, Facebook, Bloomberg, Snap, Asana New Grads -> Snap (Full Time - Current, Distributed Systems)
think it’s worthwhile to add an industry category
interns, new grads, industry
where people with 1+ years experience can chat
i asked Joey about that but he say he want to focus more on interns
also can we force ppl to say if there offers are negotiated
yea i’ll try to create the suggestion thing im wanting today
so we can gauge interest on stuff
im not against the suggestion but i don’t want to spend resources on something no one cares about
i think therell be a natural shift given the current audience that they’ll want more early career stuff instead of intern
Suggestion for the website, when on the process tracking sheet, it would be nice to have the column names stay at the top of table when scrolling so you can remember what column is what. Maybe its just bad memory on my part when I'm down at the 100's and I'm looking at what stage the company is is sometimes I forget which column is which so I have to scroll up
create a bot that takes in suggestions and adds reactions below to gather community input
github issues will do this..........i just need to set it up haha
I don't know if people would be interested in this, but maybe adding a "signed" column to the process bot would help people connect with others going to the same company
I think we should add a section where people can talk about their experiences at an internship to help people decide what type of environment they want to work for or so what
Wolverine Trading is not working in the process channel
but I can't add it to the career site
because it says it already exists
fixed
Pog
I was wondering if it’s possible to have a bot that takes suggestions and then ppl can react to a message of the suggestion to see if it’s a good feature!
@faint marten you should blacklist discord gift links
Like we did in the other server
#resource channel where users can post useful links / tutorials that can be beneficial to other users regarding interview prepping, can have a big cooldown so people dont spam it
What is your suggestion?
Add Atlanta as a channel under Locations. There are a lot of CS-related jobs opening up as MSFT, Google, and AirBnB are setting up shop in the city. With these relatively large companies moving to Atlanta, there has been an uptick in CS-related jobs which will continue.

What is your suggestion?
A company swag sharing channel to share what free things companies send for internships, events, etc
What is the value add for adding this to the Discord server?
It'd be an interesting datapoint
Additional context
No response
Discussed this with the admins and we are all pretty much in agreement that we don't want the community to devolve into being a romanticization of companies. Implementing a channel like this is devolving into a path.
The goal of the community is to best equip job-seekers with information they should know about in the recruiting process, and we don't think company swag is a part of this.
I don't have an issue adding this one channel, but these requests raise a larger question. How do we gauge what channels to add? We are under the constraint of creating mass amounts of channels. Having a bunch of channels is overwhelming to new people joining the channel and leads to worse UX if we have to scroll around more.
While adding one channel won't necessarily cause this, if we keep adding these channels adhoc to requests then we will find ourselves in that predicament. We tried pr...
What is your suggestion?
Headers in process tracking sheet should persist after scrolling

A visitor need to scroll back all the way to the top just to remember what an entry signifies

What is your suggestion?
As I looked at levels.fyi, I noticed that they don't specify if an entry is negotiated. We should include or ask users to specify if the offer was negotiated. In addition, we can also include which companies that they negotiated with as well, but this should be optional.

I feel it would be helpful to have two separate channels for the leetcode-bot; one with most frequent Qs asked in intern interviews and one with most frequent Qs asked in new grad.
What is the value add for adding this to the Discord server?
It'll help folks focus more time on the Qs with a higher chance to be asked in an interview (not that solving new grad LC questions wouldn't help).

Agree. maybe some sort of pagination or filtering based off company types seen in https://cscareers.dev/companies would be useful too
We could, but is something we actively decided against as an admin team for the following reasons:
-
Our data source does not provide granularity for the context in which a problem is asked in. Company level questions is the best we can get unless we want to crowd-source our own which we don't.
-
IMO, is crossing the border of cheating. The difference between what we have now and what you're suggesting is that the company level questions are preparing you for the average-difficulty of in...
Feel free to report in #spam_bot_report channel if you see any more spammers
Makes perfect sense to me. A goal for 2022 is to refine our salary-sharing tooling we have and I think we can include a field about this.
I think implement regions instead of individual cities makes a lot more sense.
@brettfazio @SamiMRahman do y'all have any suggestions on which to add initially?
just as an additional comment, any company than has more offers or rejected than applies is automatically listed as skewed data.
Microsoft 38 apply 52 offer 47 rejected - min 9 person skew (difference between apply and rejected)
Amazon 51 apply 88 offer 80 rejected - min 29 person skew
VMWare 12 apply 27 offer 18 rejected - min 6 person skew
Imc 21 apply 48 rejected - min 27 person skew
15 of the first 30 companies have skewed data
What is your suggestion?
In any of the process changes, whenever someone submits an offer include their @ and the company name in the ‘Congrats!!!’ message.
Ex:
Joey - !process Uber offer
cscareer.devs - Congrats!!! (@Joey Uber)
or even an encouraging message with the company inlined (Congrats! Have an amazing time at {})

Thanks for considering the suggestion! Maybe, we can consider having a thread about how users negotiated with the offers as well. This feature would require a lot of man work which you can only do so much lol

I mean the title says it all. Realistically a lot of members move on after getting a job but some stick around for the connections they made along the way. I’d even go so far to say a career dev section where non-entry level devs can share full, described offer packages could be beneficial.

There should be an additional channel for people who'd like to work as Data Scientists/ Data Engineers/ Machine Learning Engineers/ anything of that sort.

These are very much CS careers but we need different advice than SWEs as well as we face different kinds of interviews than SWEs. We also have different projects.

Add some bot that allows opt-out from #leetcode-bot channel.
What is the value add for adding this to the Discord server?
Currently, #leetcode-bot clogs up search immensely when searching the name of a company. Example: search "blackrock" in the Discord and you cannot find relevant results because of #leetcode-bot spam.
This will allow search bar function to be much more usable.

Make the intern postings and new grad postings channels "announcements" channels via the Discord Community server feature.

Add a bot command to see all questions that have a company as tag
there is a command to see popular questions within last 6 months but it doesn't work for all us. Smaller companies like c3 ai have no questions within last 6 months so all we can rely on is questions that are tagged with it
If there are too many questions have the bot send a file rather than put it all in a message
It doesnt need to be updated all the time, even updating once a year may...

Allow react roles for intern / new grad / industry. Only when user is assigned a role, give access to the specific "section" that has the channels in them.
Since people can choose what roles they can get, if they're a new grad & can give advice to interns, they can get both roles and have access to both intern and new grad sections.

Could alternatively make !companies send the "Supported companies: ..." message through DM instead of pasting into the chat every time.
Or make !companies send a link to one pinned master list of supported companies.

makes the server a bit more fun/personalized in my opinion instead of seeing all white/default colors when chatting.

Yes, a referral channel will help. I also have this same suggestion to the admins.
