bro how do u code if ur blind..
And these lawsuits are won
It’s flat out illegal
Like I heard that at many places the recruiter isn’t even allowed to see if u put that u have a disability
If you would be fully qualified to work at whatever job this is without your disability, then they're breaking the law
If a company is rejecting ppl on whether or not they have a disability, it will be discovered and a lawsuit will be won
It can be contested in court and the court will make the final decision
I mean you're literally just spewing nonsense lmao
Whether or not it’s unreasonable, it’s a fact
The ADA is very clear, if a company chooses not to hire you solely because of your disability, it's illegal
i feel like there's always heated discussions about LC lol
but arent there loopholes
u have no proof anyways
exactly
You legit just quoted the part of that sentence that fits your point
The employer cannot refuse to hire you because of your disability if you can perform the essential functions of the job with an accommodation.
If u sue and it goes to court, a hearing will be held
They can give you an accomodation
Yes, if an accommodation (like extra time) is enough to resolve the issue, they cannot discriminate at all
I thought the recruiter can’t see that information
Whatever u put on that form cannot be seen by the recruiter
says who
^
This is one of the wildest things I've ever seen. You realize this would literally never hold up in court right lmao
A judge would laugh if a company showed up to court, and said that a hearing aid was scaring customers
No, these things just couldn’t hold up in court. When the victim is of a protected class, it will be quite different
For example, reasonable accommodation may include:
providing or modifying equipment or devices,
job restructuring,
part-time or modified work schedules,
reassignment to a vacant position,
adjusting or modifying examinations, training materials, or policies,
providing readers and interpreters, and
making the workplace readily accessible to and usable by people with disabilities.
An employer is required to provide a reasonable accommodation to a qualified applicant or employee with a disability unless the employer can show that the accommodation would be an undue hardship -- that is, that it would require significant difficulty or expense.
But u can sue
The ADA makes it unlawful to discriminate in all employment
practices such as:
recruitment
firing
hiring
training
job assignments
promotions
pay
benefits
lay off
leave
all other employment related activities.
It is also unlawful for an employer to retaliate against you for asserting your rights under the ADA. The Act also protects you if you are a victim of discrimination because of your family, business, social or other relationship or association with an individual with a disability.
Yes you can lmao
No
The company would have to prove that they didn't hire you for a reason other than your disability
Not the other way around
That's exactly how this works
Lmao
what
It's a civil case
Yes
They’re practicing for their aspiring law careers
theyre venting
who would actually sue though
you're better off working at a different place
people just say "sue" for everything until they see the lawyer costs lol
actually you know who would really sue, someone on the inside because theyd be able to prove if an hc actually discriminates
Winning the lawsuit would be difficult but I mean chances are companies would just settle depending on the situation
the company could just claim a completely legal reason
They wouldn't even have to claim anything
First step would be filing a discrimination complaint with the eeoc, then they’ll review it
They can just say you weren't the most qualified for the job
U first go to the eeoc
It'd be much easier to prove that x employee was a better fit than you for reasons other than your disability
The only realistic chance you'd have is if someone told you in the hiring process that you wouldn't be able to fit solely because of your disability
Yeah you gotta hope that your recruiter emails you and says "If you weren't blind you'd be the perfect candidate"
Pretty much
Or if you get enough other people mad and it blows up on social media something, you can try and sue and hope the company settles
yeah
just never identify urself on the application
I never do personally lol
“Decline to identify”
I always think it's kinda funny some of the stuff they list on there
I've seen like IBS and stuff on there, like having to shit constantly could affect your job performance
I wonder if I went into an interview and said I had IBS, so if I need to leave mid interview to take a shit you have to accommodate that
That’s really not an acceptable reason to reject. Allowing u to work in the bathroom would be a perfectly reasonable accommodation
As someone with IBS, the struggle is very real
It affects nearly 1 in 5 ppl
Only slightly
https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2020/06/25/sex-addict-claims-hot-female-gamers-caused-him-to-injure-penis/amp/ reminded me of this lawsuit
do you have anxiety
Yes I do
yeah i feel like those are usually comorbid
break our dicks in solidarity
Yeah the link is very real and has even been demonstrated scientifically
twitch has a shit hr team
weed really helps me sometimes surprisingly
they did my friend dirty
but obv not good to use all the time
yes their hft arm
Weed has done good things for my anxiety but sometimes bad things for my IBS, and idk why
It only makes IBS worse it seems
It's only sometimes though so maybe it's certain strains
Yeah it’s not too frequent
what are we talking about here?
It's sometimes had the opposite effect on me, where I can't poop but I have crazy stomach pain
how to cure IBS
die
^
what kind of chronic pain?
Yeah, chronic pain seems like something well all come Across at some point
how do u know u won’t be in chronic pain when u die
Can you imagine if you had some sort of terminal disease that was just super painful, so you choose to just die instead of going through brutal treatments, just for that pain to persist in death
i mean i think at that point the pain is permanent in death so it wouldnt be bad yknow?
its just.. normal
you would just have your disc adjusted to take pressure off of the nerve
Yeah there’s treatments for those types of things that can at least ease the pain
weed
is using weed for pain med an affordable method compared to other meds and stuff
definitely
Yeah
i don't know much about medical weed and stuff
usually a few hits off a vape gets me nice and relaxed
It’s still quite rare tho
The only downside is that purchasing weed legally is usually way more money than illegaly
im tryna get that ketamine treatment
I’d say that’s changing
lol find a dealer
It's legal if you buy from authorized dispensaries
It’s becoming more accepted and even many companies are starting to take it seriously
@simple saffron I'm in mass too, where u from
hbu where u at
i go to umass boston
ah i see
my sister just graduated from amherst
college?
nah umass
i love weed but it makes me so unproductive
yeah i go to the LAC
weed makes me code better lol
i feel like im just a ball of anxiety and it helps me with everything
pretty good in general. definitely not for cs
I’m from California
i feel that
Yeah u need downtime to maintain my sanity
so what is anxiety like? are you anxious just naturally even when not doing anything?
If weed makes you less productive you should try strains with lower THC content
im genuinely curious
its just like being on edge all the time in my experience
Less THC more CBD
true i loved cbd
i might get a cbd pen
i used to hit my friends all the time in AP CS
i hit my friends too
yes
yes
yeah
Yeah microdoses can really help
the only experience i have with anxiousness is if i don't game for days on end. i start getting really antsy and hard to deal with. my attention span also goes to shit.
nah like actual withdrawl lmao
yeah thats a good word. i generally feel antsy everyday
thats me with working out
It’s like your brain is going 100mph even when you’re just lying there at night but it’s not even coherent; absolutely directionless. Different for everyone tbh but for me it’s muscle tension
i used to have bad anxiety but now it only pops up when im taking large amounts of caffeine
naw im in texas
I get anxious quite often but idk if it is defined as anxiety the way some people have it
Yeah that’s how I’d describe it
lmaooo
cali?
Yeah I used to have social anxiety really bad, I've been able to work through it mostly but it comes back if I'm in new situations
Where I am the county isn’t even really enforcing covid restrictions any more
@dark junco your anxiety is valid
Probably is
My school gym is open but to limited capacity with mandatory masks, it's worked pretty well
They literally seem to have given up because ppl were becoming so mad
and i need to game. i play a lot of fast paced games and i used to competitively game as well. so when i don't play i start like "noticing" everything i guess and im not zeroed in on anything and thats when i start getting really antsy and stuff.
I actually am very open to weed at this point
social anxiety sucks
it sucks ass
its so hard to reason your way outta anxiety
do a ladder of pushups. start out 20 and go down. do abs in between sets.
its just so irrational and you know it but its constantly there
Yeah I think it probably is anxiety, people def downplay it though
When I first started college it was the worst cause attending lectures was brutal with so many people
bruh if your gyms are closed then thats the most u can do
bro same i would skip just because i didnt wanna be around other ppl
online classes were kind of a lbessing
Yeah i can be taking an exam and my neck tenses up because anxiety
Yeah I fucked my grades my very first semester because I opted not to go to so many lectures
Lost a fuckton of weight because eating at the dining halls was ass too
Everyone saying go workout u are 100 it becomes v helpful
even walking in the commons was so hard for me sometimes
brooo lectures are actually horrible for me. ive noticed i cant even sit in my chair because i stare off into space and fidget a lot
its so boring to me
^ I honestly feel way more confident after like 2 months working out
Social anxiety seems like a tough curse to deal with
yeah I feel that doop
I used to only schedule classes at times where I knew there would be less people out
social anxiety fucking hurts man.
it hurts wanting to talk to people but being unable to
joining clubs and stuff really did help tho
and it would time well so that I could eat meals when there would be the least amount of people
like having an objective
dude same id have early or super late dinners everyday
my eating schedule was fucked lmao
Same here
Yeah I used to eat dinner right around like ~3:00 when I knew that there would barely be anyone at the dinning hall
Super random but as an hispanic i’ve gone to lit hispanic parties my whole life and if ur introvert it sucks because ppl think ur not enjoying. And if ur socially anxious it’s hell (i can be around people just not a ball of energy like lots of hispanics)
nah thats not random thats so tough esp if theres an expectation of enthusiasm
tbh i haven't been to a college party yet speaking of parties
that is really tough though
hate social expectations like that
i think thats with all parties @low epoch
Yeah its just hispanic parties have the added pressure of meeting girls lol you’d be surprised, it’s a culture thing
most of my party experience is me just getting really into the beer games and then dipping early with the boys lmfao
i cant do the social aspect
Issue is that at a spanish party ur gonna be dancing
went a party back in high school for new years and people looked at me weird when i wasn't drinking or smoking. and when i told them i had to leave because i had work the next day no one even said bye 🙂
Lot of pressure if you anxious af
Social anxiety i imagine u can only break out w brute force O(n^2)
yeah its really just practice and exposure
I feel like that's the most underrated part of going to a party school
Biggest thing that helped me overcome social anxiety was working out tho tbh, helps you feel a lot more confident
Almost everyone just parties and it's less judgy or anything
i lowkey started loving going to parties tho was realizing that everyone is absolutely hammered
for me what helped with my anxiety is to realize that no one really cares about what you say/do
I think some people at parties feel like they’re being watched/judged
one of my favorite things to do was to stay sober and just talk to people because its such good practice for social situations
this too
knowing everyone else wasnt gonna remember shit
Alcohol can be fantastic or horrible for anxiety lol
alcohol is amazing for anxiety
Worst part of my social anxiety was like walking around, and if I heard someone laugh in my vicinity, I would automatically assume they were laughing about me
i feel that
i think anxiety has a negative correlation with confidence
It helps me relax from my school anxiety, sometimes I can't stop obsessing over being productive
I feel like it's super hard to relax and decompress after a semester, especially when going through the hiring process. I don't know what to do with myself now that I'm not studying or refreshing my email/application portals 24/7
I still remember when i first had my anxiety first year i legit told the doc “yo maybe i have a brain tumor”
lol when i realized my passion for school was fueled by my crippling anxiety
I find myself out of habit going to check my email to see if a recruiter emailed me even though I'm not waiting for anything
yeah this rat race makes everything so much worse
means to an end tho boys
hopefully
For sure. Just get in, get $, get out. Prioritize wlb
learning about the CS industry has made me so anxious
I think having a gf in the future will help focus on something else
there are so many fucking gods and im scared i cant compete
i say this even tho i grind leetcode and check my inbox everyday even tho i already signed an offer
having gf can be a big plus and also con tbh, i know ppl say u should be happy w yourself but even one meaningful relationship can change u for better
The biggest thing I had to stop doing was checking linkedin, because seeing these kids with like FAANG/Trading Firm offers for fall winter & summer was depressing af
YUP EXACTLY
Comparing yourself to others is cancerous
It can be con in the sense that if u mess the relationship up ur confidence takes a nosedive
yeah
my fucking southeast asian mom constantly compared me to other people
its so hard getting out of that mindset
this was me until i realized not everything was my fault
honestly therapy helps so much
i was fucked up before i finally was real with myself and addressed the things i was dealing with
gotta just compare yourself with the past you
Like dude both my breakups were like that peepo i felt like i did something so wrong, and the person in each case treated me like shit at the end
U just move on i guess yeah, glad u worked thru it
ive been holding this in for a while so imma just let this out: i'm not as good of a coder/dev as I think i am. im kinda bad actually. but i'm gonna get better.
well its easier to move on when you realize your ex is a narcissist
.
Insert robin williams
this is perfectly okay honestly. you don't need to be a rockstar programmer as a junior in college.
narcissists suck peepo, they make u think its ur fault and they gaslight u
im below a junior
Abusive relationships take many forms
i feel like everyone has this realization one day. and its the first step to becoming a great programmer
even below
like im learning react right now and im so confused
its okay to not be a good programmer right now. companies don't expect you to be a rockstar programmer
not right now
Omg that movie is fantastic and robin williams had such a tragic life too with his struggles
and my relationship was emotionally and psychologically abusive. so happy i ended it when i did and moved on.
I feel like there's so much I don't understand about how real applications work and I'm scared imma do bad at my internship
when did you have yours?
when I was working with a machine learning system during my research last summer
you'll be fine man. you got an internship in the first place so they def want u
it was brutal
do you think it changed you?
realized i couldnt cruise with innate talent anymore
yeah i was a lazy pos before
also really made me appreciate my classes so much more. like information was being spoonfed to me and i was taking that for granted
yup. you're not gonna get the quality education you're recieving anytime else in your life
i think this is the one thing i can't really relate to. idk im genuinely happy seeing people announce where they are going because the way i see it, our generation is really gonna pop off and be the future. im also competitive so if i see other people doing good i want to get to that position too.
but i also definitely see how it is hard to look at every time you get on the app
when people intentionally try to flex it
peepo, you are one of the dudes i look up to on this server
Yeah but if you're sitting there with no offers and you see everyone else popping off that shit can bum you out
i-
bro u went from two unpaid internships to good ass offers
you went from the ground to the sky bro
i hope to be peepo some day
same
we all wanna be peepo one day
peepo poggers
we all respect the hustle you put in
i think i have to surpass him in osu first
i was like that. i made me scared for a while tbh. that i wasn't doing good enough. going through my break up at the time and then depression and other shit while trying to keep up with recruiting was hella rough
glad i went through it though. i definitely grew a lot as a person i think.
having no offers and whatnot. getting rejected after multiple interviews sucked too
after recruitment, its always feels better in hindsight
but going through it is fucking rough
hope u treat her well skwiid
definitely
🙂
this month has been really tough since all my interviews happen at 2AM-6AM
Nah for me it's how he just seems so positive idk
my fuckin internet died right before redfin interview 💀
f
meanwhile my ex kept me from pursuing opportunities my sophomore year because "she did so much for me" and i was "just gonna leave her". definitely thank your gf for being there for you. it would mean a lot to her.
hopefully 2021 will be better
all of us can learn from that
I think it’s like, every major has stereotypes and we are in one that has a bunch of weirdo introverts lol so we sympathize w each other. Also learning cs humbles u cuz its hard as shit
it sucks when all ur roommates are business majors and complaining about how bored they are cuz they finished all their work
Thats what im saying just embrace it 
then im just locked in my room studying for hours upon hours
Lmao two of mine are business and they always straight chillin
i mean honestly i wouldnt want to do something that bores me
^
i like how exciting and challenging cs is
yeah exactly
i was almost an english major and i was going to be an AP Lang teacher
thats sick i was gonna be a philosophy major and teach HS philosophy lol
i mean im still a philosophy major
It feels so empowering and useful too. Like part of the reason i entered this is cuz i legit FEEL like tech runs this world lol
yeah you can actually make meaningful contributions
tech will run this world. its unavoidable.
i just hope we're responsible with it
Which is why i sorta have a moral debate if i wanna work somewhere i make mad bank but potentially useless work (and just donate my money) or try to find some job i build useful stuff
Ideally both
and i just like to see people do well. i love coming to the server and seeing people put in the offers they got and i love seeing people succeed in general. all of us in this server are going to do great things out of college and have good comfortable lives (permitting you manage your money right). its just really nice to get to know the people here and what you guys want to actually do. even if all i know you guys by is discord names.
my irl name is also bean_pancakes 😳
sorry if this is off topic but will it look bad if i take 4 1/2 semesters to finish college? might take a sem off to intern
also i know im not the best programmer and quite frankly im not insanely smart or anything either. so seeing all of the leetcode and quant and faang chads is really nice.
i don't think it matters tbh
No big deal, i dont event mention college start date on apps or resume
damn thats a good idea
yeah an internship is the best reason to graduate late anyways
its definitely crazy seeing the difference between the mindsets of the people in this server compared to those in my school
ive only met a few who have gotten internships or are even looking for internships this year
Yeah my resume just says Expected: Dec 2021 and same for any apps. If they press u for a reason (they wont) just make somethin up lol. Personal reasons, family stuff, etc
pretty much all CS students at my school don't do internships or personal projects
Same
talking to you guys makes me wish i went to college at a tech school or big/bigger school compared to where im at. sounds like so much more fun
I have credits going back several years like 6, has not been a problem
no i think its fine, from what ive heard graduate on time = more $$, graduate late = more time to explore different companies. im considering graduating late cuz you dont rly have another chance to just work somewhere for 3 months
And yeah i might just delay one more semester, u will be fine
yeah exactly. I decided on CS so late so I really will only get one chance at an internship otherwise
gotcha thanks guys
same, i only went to my current school cuz it was the cheapest option
my school is paid for entirely where i currently go. but also im in arkansas so 
I'm blessed to have a great state school
literally the only person besides my roommate in this server that is in arkansas
kind of crazy
I’m just trying to get more internships. Honestly it seems to me that late graduation is worth it for internships
My biggest regret was not learnin bout the “grind” till super late and now i’m set to graduate with only 1 internship unless i delay it but i try not to worry
yeah especially for places like salesforce that dont hire new grads
10 internships aren’t worth
I actually feel that internships literally pay more than new grad (cuz of the housing stipend) and being able to not have to spend the salary on living expenses
wb the 10x intern tho
I said what I said
Most i’ve seen here is 6
i agree with @restive falcon
only intern at places you would be interested in for full time and the company lines up with your future interest and where you want to live and stuff
One summer (even excluding housing) literally pays more than most Americans make in a year
^lmao i talked about that earlier
kind of crazy what they pay interns in this industry. i don't really get it
i understand the full time pay
but not interns necessarily
Talented cs majors in demand
For ft my plans are very different (mix of startup and hft stuff)
My team is literally struggling to find a decent mid level iOS engineer
Yeah the average American seemingly makes something like $15 an hour
cs interns still require actual skill, many business interns basically make coffee
ft?
Yea
just crazy to think an intern at HRT is making 14.5k a month is all im saying
And on this discord a $15 an hour internship is considered the horror
I’d gladly take a big ass paycut if americans could make better liveable wages
i also understand though that our skillset is really rare tbh in terms of the population
More
I mean I wouldn’t mind doing a 15/hr internship if I get to learn cool stuff
$14.5k is more than ~10% of Americans earn in ahead
like even among this server people have a tough time getting into HRT
i thought JS re 1-upped?
Hasnt hrt started hiring more non-targets?
Yes ucf broke into HRT
I found a decent chunk of non Targets on LinkedIn
but ucf is a target
My top 15 cs school wasn't on hrt dropdown I think lmao
so will they hire me from my school in arkansas 🥺

Skills: 0
Charisma: 8
Confidence: plus ultra over 5000

I originally thought it was the most elitist one but after looking at LinkedIn apparently not
I think a few of the smaller boutique shops are way more elitist
Rentec>>>
I actually heard that contrary to popular belief, quant firms may actually be more lenient in who they give interviews to than even faang (passing the interview is a different story)
Tbh swe work at trading firms seem kinda dry ngl
UCF “breaking in” sounds dope
Working on a product used by millions of ppl is fun
What who doesn’t love shaving off nanoseconds of runtime so a rich ceo can take more money quicker from investors
I think out of all the quant firms akuna is the most liberal
money printer go brrrr
If u go to no name state school pls try to lift up ur peers. Im in a club and were trynna get people motivated af but its hard
But if u truly wanna become rich it’s a different path
i think being a SWE at trading firm is dope as fuck
You’ll either have to climb the corporate ladder or start ur own thing
i think its cooler than most faang/unicorn
it was so hard to get people motivated but it is worth it for the few people that do try
@tacit halo how much is rich for you?
imagine coding in ocaml
Idk I rly value fulfillment in the work I do
How do you guy know which quant firm is better than others? is there like a ranking?
Being rich and being comfortable are different things to me
we love ocaml
Rankings is dumb
I want to fatfire by 50
i recently left my school computer science and cybersecurity clubs at my school though ngl
Being rich means u have some influence in the world and can start saying fu to whoever
I’d rather do IB than code ocaml
what net worth do u think that is?
Comfortable is swe salary (nice home plus a few vacations
Rich is probably 30m
Net worth
ocaml is honestly a lot of fun
quant firm ranking is wlb 
Nah way less
its quite primitive though
Ok hiru we get ur an ocaml hater just tell jane and not us
15m is incredibly rich
Why? Is it like mine where my club is the only tech club that actually does anything lol
comfortable is like 150k salary
Jane won’t respond 😞
Ur set for life at that point
What if hiru got heart broken by jane
Why did u trigger him
Its cuz ur not jane’s tarzan 😏
its crazy how my family lived on 20k a year for years and some new grads are making 20x that
I’d say the first level of rich starts at 5m and ultra rich is 50m
Alex ur from cali so u have a diff perspective
I'd say thats incredibly subjective lol
Thing is, swes make more than a comfortable amount of money but some model gets paid 1m to appear in a single photoshoot
5m in texas is insane
Get you someone that can do both 👑
my moms 280k house here would be like 3-4 mill in bay area
Where I’m living the median house price is 1.5m
💀
I could get a mansion for less than a quarter of that in Texas
But I like the Bay Area
uh multiple reasons but mainly there just wasn't any benefit to me being in it. i had freshmans messaging me essentially asking me to do their lab projects and homework for them. no one applied for internships. no one asked for resume help or anything. so i just pasted a bunch of sources and stuff for them to refer to and i went ahead and left all of the club group chats and discord servers.
i helped two people (my roommate and my cybersecurity friend) get into the recruiting season though and my roommate got an offer to Cerner and my friend to IBM for Red Team Security. So it is definitely fulfilling to see some people really succeed form helping them but also the people at my school just don't care enough. they only would do recruiting if they could just show up to an interview at google, reverse an array, and get an offer. just really disappointing tbh. no ambition at my school
as someone who lived in cali and texas
I much prefer it here in cali tbh
id rather pay the premium if I can afford it
Yeah small apartment in a nice location is honestly preferable
@limber hazel you are hereby banned from whataburger
i wanna live in seattle ;3
okay that was aggressive
my future bay area shack
but I dont like it
2b2b shack
im excited to have a really nice apartment in DFW as my first place to live out of arkansas tbh
Sick shack bro
shake shack
I love shake shack
in n out
yeah I love socal
that is so much though
. guess im just use to the arkansas housing market prices lmao
shake shack > in n out
no
🧠
just no
Absolutely
Yeah it’s a great place for all ages
HEY you misspelled too
u just edit faster than me
I
wtf mobile
shake shack is also like
Where I live the average age is like 60 tho
I’m on mobile
twice the price
La Jolla
Yes ma’am 🥺
everyones insta wazowsking alex lmao
free Alex
Wazowsking? I mean I am part polish
but cfa > shake shack
cfa?
Sounds like a polish name
chick fil a
chick fil a?
Culvers goat
nah
Where is mr emote when we need him
mr emote is retired
gotta rep the south
Fastest fingers in the west that guy
chick fil a is pretty decent with the cfa sauce
Mr emote now works at chik fil a as sr engineer
but otherwise its meh
Waffle fries 🥰
Restaurants are super expensive tho here
A full meal is like $40 a person in La Jolla
An entree costs much less
Waffle fries are the trading firms of fries
But a single entree is never enough
theres a lot of places really cheap nearby though alex
How come all the workers at my local chik fil a are baddies
convoy st 
Yeah I’ve been to convoy a few times (my dorm mates dragged me over)
https://www.quora.com/What-happens-when-a-customer-says-my-pleasure-to-a-Chick-Fil-A-employee the important questions
I do enjoy asian food. Mainly order the noodle soups
Food is life
join food channel pls
SD mexican food >>>>> LA mexican food tho
post food
But even 10 minutes away from La Jolla food prices start dropping dramatically
This has to be true because as u approach the border mex food gets better lol
yeah until a few months ago
lim (mex food) approaches infinity as location -> border
I lived like 5 minutes from the border
when I would walk my dogs my phone would use roaming data
Yeah there’s like several taco stands on every block hear
it thought I was in mexico
When u can hear the gunshots while eating ur tacos ❤️
lol
I’m live a 40 minute drive from the border
I think there was a time when we first moved here when we accidentally drove into Mexico
I was too young to remember it but it happened
Amazing taco stand 5 minutes away from me. $1 fish tacos and they’re quite good
Barring authenticity, yes they are best accessible tacos
Hey do Goldman Sachs summer analysts negotiate salary? I got an offer letter for 70,000 prorated but I see some dude on reddit has the same office I have but 75,000 prorated
What location?
Are you both swe
Btw when did u apply? They’re website originally said applications were due in September but now there’s no deadline and they’re still open
Salt Lake City, I applied end of October
The Reddit person has same title as me but in his post said they are going for their masters
Yea prolly because they completed undergrad
Maybe they have more experience than I do? This would be my first internship
Gotcha
I heard internship salaries for the most part aren’t negotiated but also sometimes they are so lol
Confusing
Think I should not say anything?
Awesome thanks, makes sense
free $21 lol
hello rad
imma hop on that shit
wait wtf, tesla new grad offer is actually good?
i thought they pay meh for intern and new grad lol
Yeah I thought so too
oh shit what
tesla doesnt sound too bad then
i thoguht it was shit pay and shit hours
Good pay for new grad. Can’t guarantee wlb though. But work is really interesting. Pay and work are primarily why people go there if I remember correctly. Not so muchh for wlb
Would've been nuts to work there with the stock appreciation
btw, any suggestions for home desks anyone?
looking to get a long enough one to hold multiple laptops and monitor, but ideally on a budget (under 150)
same for chairs^^
Idk but when i have money imma get a standing/seating convertible desk for sure
I feel like it’s lowkey good ergonomics
yes, getting a desk that can go up/down by itself is way nicer than putting some jank thing on top of the desk to move monitor up/down
For chairs the most popular high quality ones are herman miller aerons but it’s mad expensive so get it used on craigslist or buy used from a business that’s closing. I feel like u can get by with some gaming chairs maybe. Remember posture is #1
For the record i have a used aeron chair, great investment. Can sit on it like a bum all day and feel good 👍
hmm any way to get some quality new chairs at that price level, or just go used?
i try to avoid used if possible
but ik my budget kinda lowl ol
With used aeron what u have to do is inspect it in person and since these brands are popular you can find youtube vids that show how to inspect them/how they work. But yeah i understand wanting new, hopefully someone can recommend. Worst case sit up straight, buy a lumbar pillow no cap
anyone have experience with amazon basics chair? 😂
ahh i see thanks for the pillow rec!!
That sounds like back pain waiting to happen lol

any (ideally not used) recommendation in my budget?
it’s not that bad
ayy do u use it? also which one cause there are like so many diff versions lol
I have the ikea markus and its pretty good imo
Anyone interned at Dell or interning there the coming summer?
lmao
my inbox gonna be so dry this holiday season
Does anyone know consequences of reneging on Amazon?
Do they hold grudges?
i want that
hot
Amazon recruiters don't even know who works at Amazon
I read a linkedin post by an Amazon recruiter who said she cold calls people, and some of the people she cold calls already work at Amazon lol
Fair
good morning rad

Does anyone have any tips on how to actually get Facebook to respond? Contacting 16 recruiters did nothing. Does anyone know any particular ones who moved them forward?
16 recruiters
16 is a lot there’s usually only like 1-2 recruiters per school
Cause Facebook has school specific recruiters
So you should make sure you’re emailing the one for your school
I feel like my school probably should have school specific recruiters but idk how to find them
I have no idea who my school recruiter is. I don’t know who to ask
ask ppl from your school who have interned at fb
At info sessions there are recruiters sometimes for a particular region like southwest/northeast/UCF, all the key regions
Anyone here intern at dropbox last year? or know someone who did?
hey did anyone take the 20 mc test for Facebook's production engineer intern position? How was it and what does it focus on? confused on what type of questions it'll ask lol
Didn't know ucf is a region now
UCF too powerful
My friend did. They were mostly systems questions. She got like 60% right and has her final round soon
is it worth learning bit manipulation
Finally got around to doing Amazon OA 2
not as bad as I thought it was going to be
LP part was easy too
No need to learn all the fancy stuff but I've occasionally had to: (i) generate all subsets of n bits, (ii) check if a particular bit is set, (iii) find the least set bit
What's that other platform for OA's other than hackerrank?
the video administered ones
NVM codesignal
Anyone who did the Coupang OA and had a brute force/any solution for the 1st question (Perfect Number), can you DM me?
I just want to know how I should've approached the problem. (Just for personal knowledge gain)
I spent like 1 hour staring at it and couldn't get any working algorithm.
Can i dm you?
I don't need the full solution, just an idea of how to approach it. I remember the question.
I think fb is trying to actively hire for enterprise engineering internship this year. Seems like they're only hiring one, and it's the team's first time hiring interns. But the role is pretty much swe that makes fb's internal tools.
I think applications for the role are still open. Hiring just one intern may sound like a high bar, but if a recruiter from fb was desperate enough to contact me (a stupid sophomore who didnt pass resume screen for swe internship) to offer an interview, my guess is that not many ppl are applying your chances for response rate is pretty decent
has anyone done a twitter phone interview?
Do u have official info to claim they’re only hiring 1 intern? Even if 50 ppl apply, those are still pretty low chances
1 sounds very low
Are you sure fb is only hiring one intern for enterprise engineering? I am going to be interning for them this summer 
Oh sry for miscommunication. I say 1 cus on their website it says "we're looking for a talented blahs blahs bluh" which made me think they're only doing one. But I doubt theres a real restriction on it if they can find multiple qualified candidates
yeah 1 is impossible hahahaha
I just though it was likely bc it's the teams first time ever hiring interns
had me worried lmao
sure!
do uk if it asks scenarios or just syntax?
Just wondering are banks still actively recruiting?
And how slow do they tend to be? Like how long does it take to hear back?
I heard they’re a bit easier interview wise and maybe more liberal with resume screens
I know c1 is closed but jpm, Amex, gs, and others seem to be open
pretty sure if you're not in the pipeline currently it'll be tough
a lot of super-days have happened
JP Morgan extended the deadline. I’m in the pipeline there
The applications reopened for some of these
Does anyone here have official info regarding banks?
i feel like it's pretty late for goldman they start recruiting in like july
they probably have very little if not no spots open
goldman was still recruiting in feb this year but it’s possible there’s only few spots left
jp morgan is still actively recruiting
TD Securities probably is still recruiting if their application is open
Does eBay call to reject?
both
@arctic basalt when did you apply?
not usually
What is Enterprise engineer intern at Facebook ? I have been recently contacted by them
Who’s ur recruiter?
First I had Cindy but also got another recruiter
My friend got an offer for that position, I think it's their internal tools team
Does Facebook only have 1 technical interview? I was fortunate enough to hear back from a recruiter with a scheduled interview in January and I am so nervous 😭
I think so, my friend failed the final for the fb swe, but got contacted about this a couple weeks later
for some reason i never got the codesignal email
its not counted this year i think
ghosted by facebook 
dw man facebook ghosts ALOT of people
Anyone have an email template for having a recruiter check the status of your application?
just say literally that lol
"wondering if you had any updates on my application/the process"
Hi [recruiter],
I hope you're doing well this week. I'm checking in regarding my process with [company and role] internship for the summer. I have [upcoming deadlines], but I'm very excited about the potential of moving forward with [company] for next summer. I'd be interested to know if there's anything needed from my end to further the process or if there's any current updates.
Thank you.
Best regards,
[name]
^mods pls pin
we should have, like a channel or doc or webpage just with all of these templates these are fire
Thanks!
obvi add some razzle dazzle and personal touch about your interviews if you can
Trying to help my roommate move through the process quicker at jpmc
Wish he talked in this server more 
@dapper shard I got ghosted after they asked me if i want C4G or normal final lol
prob cus I said C4G but it was already done 
lol I said I wanted normal final instead of c4g and got ghosted
yup same

My roommate got an email a while back that was being moved from the Houston pipeline to Plano
After all of the c4g
And he hasn’t gotten rejected yet either
ye like 40-50 lol
I don’t think Plano is done hiring so I’m hoping he can get squeezed in
I think plano is a nicer office
He has a competing offer at cerner but obviously J.P. Morgan is better name and pay overall so I’m really hoping he can get that. Would also be crazy for me and my roommate to intern at the same place
wait how did they rank the cfg finals
That'd be dope
My friend and i interned in the same group last summer
It was fun asf
imagine having friends who even think of internships 😦
half my CS friends dont even know what leetcode is
this is facts ^
i got a few of my friends to start doing binary search with me but they think internships arent even gonna help them get full time jobs after grad
like good luck bro lol
yes
im not even joking
my friend said he regret going to a hackathon "cuz he was a bit behind on physics hw"
bro the experience u gain from a hackathon >>>> physics hw
Lmaooo I had a 4.0 and I still got ghosted by most freshman programs lmaoo
But fr tho... most peeps I know don't care about internships
or Big N
that means u can learn from em
^
idk my friend referred me to the company, recruiter saw how good friends we were, and paired us on the same team out of like 11 to get randomly placed in
that was a fun internship
refer a friend?
unless you mean assuming neither person worked there before
yea I mean the average person tackles life one day at a time, which is kinda nice tbh because that way life is less stressful
like a lot of CS students I know are just chillin
True... but then one day you realize that you're miles behind where you wanted to be
Totally
which is fine, people have the choice to live their lives however they want
we choose to be part of the rat race 🙂
Lol yeah... but I find more happiness taking the red pill
what is red pill
Matrix reference
metaphorically blue pill is the blissful ignorance
And red pill is the unpleasant truth
thanos
😱
take the black pill
theres a balance between working for the future and having fun in the present
yes I agree, most people get hyperfocused on one of the two unfortunately
it seems like the most successful and well rounded people i know can do both
also can soph interns get return offer?
any intern can get a return offer
if you're a soph you'd get a return offer to intern obv, instead of return offer for full time
post interview wait is pain .
I like being a degenerate rat 🙂
you were probably on the fence
@dapper shard being paid big bucks to be a degenerate rat is pretty fun lolol
Okay but slick all of the degenerates I know actually pop off irl. Kind of crazy
Why is Sabre’s OA so obnoxiously long? I just quit halfway through. Not even worth it
Does anyone know if visa does off season internships?

Glassdoor is useless
