2021_summer

[waxen orchid]

just learning python can get u an internship, but u need more maturity to get citadel/two sigma/ect...

faang is mostly luck though

most students get resume rejected

and interviews are easy

yeap

[gloomy lodge]

Honestly just want a good internship for experience haha but I'll work hard to achieve the best one I can

[gentle cradle]

u want faang just join amazon

[waxen orchid]

startup interviews are way harder than faang

[abstract wagon]

interview was easier for faang than startup imo

like way easier

not if youre international tho

[crimson brook]

yeah ive only ever gotten LC hard in startups

[abstract wagon]

being american is a privilege

[abstract wagon]

me too rip

yeah

that doesnt imply mine arent talented dude...

[gloomy lodge]

Darn, so do python and apply to faang cause start ups are hard... Got it 😂

[charred roost]

oh rip I"ve had the opposite experience with startups lol

[abstract wagon]

it's just luck and maybe timing

[charred roost]

Only ever gotten super simple take home assesments

[crimson brook]

i think sf tech startups are like super anal on their interviews

but other startups are eh

[charred roost]

Yeah I applied to startups outside SF that could be why

Yeah the biggest thing about internships is applying early

That makes the process a little easier

[crimson brook]

i had a startup in the bay give me a concurrency systems design in round 1, topological sort in 2nd round, the LC hard graph 3rd round

[charred roost]

Still possible to get internships as late as May but it can be difficult at that point

[waxen orchid]

To make things short, 1) if you want Quants/don't have green card, u need to be a god at leetcode. 2) if you are an American, you can either luck out with FAANG, or have to be moderately good at lc (solve medium problems reliably)

[charred roost]

Jesus

[abstract wagon]

interestingly my really smart/talented international friend with competition awards/projects had little response rate when he had his "asian" name on application/resume but started getting replies after giving himself a fake english name

[crimson brook]

ngl comapnies mad sus but discrimination def exists 😦

[abstract wagon]

you can search up "minorities who whiten job resume get more interviews" there are studies abt this shit

made me mad for my friend but at least he understood the system and got out of this bullshit

[abstract wagon]

yeah and there's nothing to prove it so we cant do anything abt it

[sinful tinsel]

How?

[waxen orchid]

This is a big assumption that he/she will pass resume screening, which is very unlikely for anyone

[crimson brook]

seems like a psychological thing too i mean if im a recruiter at a career fair im not gonna remember every international students' names whereas a john smith might be easier to remember
Edit: and im asian too

[abstract wagon]

no he clarified it's his nickname and not his legal name

i did the same thing (foreign as fuck name)

[sinful tinsel]

Ru a tutor?

[charred roost]

Yeah they're a mentor

And a Youtuber

[waxen orchid]

wait how do u game the system?? Like I have 5+ projects & go to top 3 cs school and haven't had the success you had

[crimson brook]

yeah i heard back from most FAANG except G/A and i actually had referrals for those two RIP

[sinful tinsel]

Interesting haha

[waxen orchid]

except amazon, no faang gives out free interviews lool

[crimson brook]

tbh u might be onto smtg every referral has ended in a ghost this year

[waxen orchid]

In the summer

[charred roost]

Here's the guide for anyone that wants it

https://www.notion.so/Hi-Justin-Here-6365027f82674f9fa76945abb1b330a1

[abstract wagon]

arent referrals by students/interns usually pretty useless

[sinful tinsel]

@floral ravine wuts ur YouTube channel?

[crimson brook]

oh fr? why?

[waxen orchid]

I meant this timeframe

😛

[charred roost]

There should be a link here: https://linktr.ee/justinwlin

[abstract wagon]

google closed aug 30th lmfao

[waxen orchid]

thought it was summer for some reason

[sinful tinsel]

Thanks

[sinful tinsel]

For swe intern?

[charred roost]

Yeah np

[abstract wagon]

yeah

[sinful tinsel]

U know wen t opens?

[charred roost]

Oh yeah Google closed super early

I only noticed on Sept 1st rip

[abstract wagon]

google was open late july - end of august i think?

[waxen orchid]

FUCK Algoexpert.io

their quirky youtube ads

piss me off lol

[abstract wagon]

so you want to be a software engineer at google?

[crimson brook]

i personally like clement's videos but i will never buy algoexpert LOL

[waxen orchid]

nah after that, I'm not going to google

[abstract wagon]

he went to apple final

[waxen orchid]

only faang I got

and salesforce too

[radiant hamlet]

anyone know if Facebook announced summer internships being remote? I know they were tryna press for in person

[waxen orchid]

I have 3+ hackathon awards, 5+ projects, 3.7+ gpa...

somethings wrong here

lol

[abstract wagon]

facebook is remote summer, maybe in person fall

[waxen orchid]

I never felt FAANG gave out interviews

I just don't think this statement is true

[charred roost]

I know Amazon hands out a lot of OAs

And hire a lot as a result lol

[gloomy lodge]

Jesus 😭 how am I supposed to compete lmao

[charred roost]

But others are harder

[abstract wagon]

its literally just luck tbh

[waxen orchid]

yeah its just luck, don't rely too much on faang

its mostly marketing ploy

just work on improving as best as you can

[abstract wagon]

they dont have time to go throughh all 300k applicants or whatever so imo best thing to do is just improve yourself and take any chance you can get

and when chance comes hopefully youve prepared enough to reach it

theres nothing else special abt recruiting imo

[waxen orchid]

most students get something if you truly put your mind to it

[abstract wagon]

and even if youre late its not impossible

[waxen orchid]

that is, worked at it for the whole semester + summer

[abstract wagon]

exhibit a: me

[waxen orchid]

without whining abt work live balance

think yield rate dropped or sth?

idk

highly paid slave

[abstract wagon]

oh yes of course

[charred roost]

^^^ this 100%, you never know what opportunities will come your way

[abstract wagon]

this needs to be worth dropping pre-med

[waxen orchid]

indentured servitude, but at then end, you get a mercedes :3

[abstract wagon]

and mba

no its the fact that i wont be a doctor after covid madness

[gloomy lodge]

Thank yall so much. All of this stuff just gave me more motivation. Imma head to bed cause is 2am already here. Hopefully next year I'll be here talking about what internships I got. Good night!

[waxen orchid]

lol good luck mate

u got this!

[charred roost]

good luck!

[abstract wagon]

at least they go to a school that is friendly to premed

my uni gives our premeds 3.0 gpas lmfao

grinding cs is nothing to grinding biochem holy shit i do not miss that life

menlo park

[charred roost]

nice

[abstract wagon]

i live close enough (30 min drive) and i think interns might try to meet up over summer (safely)

[charred roost]

I visited facebook's menlo park office a few years ago when I went to a hackathon nearby

Super nice place

[waxen orchid]

ah you get to see stanford at a glance from fb's hq, too bad you will be escored out if you enter

[manic oyster]

Anyone had final round at walmart for SWE intern ?

[balmy blade]

3 of my friends did

[mild kelp]

this literally me

[ashen needle]

at what point does experience on your resume actually have a serious impact

[still gazelle]

when u dont have any

[acoustic geode]

Hey did anyone get any web engineering offers from Spotify yet?

[wide mesa]

anyone got any idea what autodesk asks in first technical interview???

[weak oracle]

when your linked in post saying you got a job has a lot of likes

[ashen needle]

lmao

I don’t think I’m gonna make a linkedIn post I don’t wanna be that guy

[weak oracle]

Nah you got to

I gained 500 connections from mine

bite the bullet 😤

[crimson brook]

You can make the post but just don't be the guy who goes to MIT and has 3 prior experiences + research tryna whisk up some inspirational bullshit like bro we r not the same

[sinful tinsel]

Is it possible to get hft interview if someone has faang on their resume?

[weak oracle]

yeah fuck no don't try to make it inspirational

just be like "I'm super grateful to be able to accept this position and look forward to working, insert people you are thanking

Don't spew BS like "See all it takes is hard work you can do it"

[terse torrent]

has anyone had more than 2 rounds for apple? i had a coding and a behavioral but not sure what is next

[neon ridge]

Has anyone here applied to Schlumberger and had the 2nd round interview?

[ashen needle]

if i do it itll just be like "Im happy to share ill be interning at place this fall. I'm super excited to get started"

or something along those lines

[charred roost]

Damn that Vanguard OA was kinda tough

Though it was all leetcode type problems

Managed to get a 100% so hopefully they reach out

[cyan valley]

GL 👐

[charred roost]

🙏

[icy juniper]

Does anyone have a good renge template?

[charred roost]

I think there are some in the pinned messages in this channel

[earnest kestrel]

to anyone who took the goldman sachs HackerRank OA how was it?

[upbeat fossil]

1 easy 1 DP

[earnest kestrel]

shit barely studied DP. Mines do tonight do you think if i study the most common leetcode questions from goldman sachs ill be fine?

Bet Preciate it

[steady obsidian]

hi guys

is there a 2022 grad channel

[charred roost]

I don't think so

[mystic warren]

has anyone applied for zocdoc and heard back?

[simple saffron]

damn the degeneracy from this channel is gone

[terse torrent]

alexL is also gone

so is boba

[simple saffron]

bobas been gone

[rustic sonnet]

is it rude to ask a recruiter what their offer would be before I interview

I already have a good offer so I dont want to waste my time interviewing at companies that wont match or beat my current offer

[lunar dagger]

Low-key imo

But you could mention to them that you already have an offer and that you're looking to have them either match or beat your offer

I'm not an expert on this in any capacity tho. This is just what I feel like would be most appropriate to do in ur situation

[rustic sonnet]

yeah I think ill just say (more formally) Here is my current offer if you cannot match or beat I am not interested in the opportunity

thanks for the perspective!

[crimson brook]

I feel like this is more acceptable for ft roles but it should be more mainstream

College students got tuition to be paying

[rustic sonnet]

ye

I just dont want to waste my time lol

[crimson brook]

Yeah I'd just be straight with them unless you're down for the extra interview practice LOL

They don't have anything on glassdoor?

[round sparrow]

anyone else get vmware phone with mapbu group

[marsh burrow]

How likely is it for swes at faang level companies to make over 400k per year?

[marsh burrow]

When do most people shift into management? After they become senior swe?

[subtle compass]

Is this for intern or full time roles?

[neon ridge]

Intern role

[subtle compass]

Same! I heard in the past only ppl applying to full time roles get second rounds (interns only do 1 interview and test).

[earnest kestrel]

Hey guys I just got the debugging section for amazon and got moved to OA round 2. I am assuming its due a week from when I completed OA1. I got a couple questions.

1. didnt think id get this far so Im kinda week on DSA background knowldge how to I prepare as best I can with the week given.

2. Do i target company questions or how should I go about cramming for the OA really want to make it to final round

OK thank you so much

[exotic atlas]

do the top 25 amazon q

[silver notch]

Anyone know how the digital interview is like for J&J Talent Acquisition?

[formal finch]

wait r u serious?

I guess this is how Google filled up so quickly

this year

[earnest kestrel]

You have the application link? Cause this is really early

[terse torrent]

^

[lethal ore]

^

[manic saddle]

did you interview before with google or something

[earnest kestrel]

hey guys I submitted a bunch of applications to different companies 2 weeks back. At what point is it okay to contact a recuiter on linkedin to check up on the status on my application/ get a coding challenge. Also is it better to just cold message is Linkedin or email. Cant find most of these recuiters emails.

[weak oracle]

TIL Amazon AS interns make 75 an hour lol

Bonkers

[remote geyser]

What is Amazon AS?

[weak oracle]

Amazon Applied Scientist Intern

[thick shore]

isnt that a phd internship

[weak oracle]

Masters and PhD yeah

[thick shore]

i think we had one salary submission

for that

#new_grad_salary_sharing message

yea they get upleveled

it makes sense

[velvet badge]

Anyone gone through cognizant’s SWE intern process?

[weak oracle]

Bonkers

Maybe after 8 months working with AS and REs I can convince them to interview me as AS intern cause honestly I’ll be doing most of the same work anyway and I’m in a BS/MS

🙏

[abstract tiger]

Anyone has experience of technical interview of round at wepay ?

[hidden sail]

y'all what's the best place to look for internships

[lethal ore]

Google

[balmy blade]

Handshake has some weird priority

They actually open your application 🤣

[lean nexus]

linkedin has honestly been pretty good, it's the only thing i use.

yeah, i've gotten a few oas and phones

[balmy blade]

using other things is prob a better idea than just using only 1

[marsh burrow]

Is an internship at google even worth it since they make you re-interview. Am i better off applying for full-time?

[balmy blade]

lol even worth it what

[lean nexus]

for sure, but it's a personal decision for me since it's too stressful and time-consuming

[dark junco]

???

[marsh burrow]

I would rather have a guaranteed return offer than being forced to re-interview. Unless google offers an offseason internship or you have another offseason internship as a backup, I would intern at google

[dark junco]

if you can get a full time role yes, but you probably won't lol

[balmy blade]

Uhh interning at google gets u a lot of other options

for ft

why would u not

[dark junco]

yeah I agree I would take the absolute top companies over google for internships, but a google internship is still great

also conversion interview is way easier than going through the whole cycle

even though it isn't as nice as return offer

[marsh burrow]

How hard is the transition from quant firm to google for full time?

I can’t seem to get faang interviews

[dark junco]

you have quant offer?

[balmy blade]

wat

[marsh burrow]

Yes for this summer

[dark junco]

where? hft places are generally as hard if not harder to get, you should be able to transition if you want

interviews are supposedly pretty easy to get for FT with a few YOE

[abstract wagon]

^ faang interviews are easier to get than hft offers lol

[crimson brook]

not that i have (or will ever have) a google intern offer, but how is the re-interview process, does it offer any advantage/is easier over a normal interview?

or is the only benefit that you're guaranteed an interview

[small fossil]

You can only use this command in #2021_grad_process or #2021_intern_process

[dark junco]

yeah I didn't even mean HFT with yoe, just any SWE role basically. People jump from random companies to big N when they get experience cause they can get interviews then. HFT is insanely hard to get

unless it's one of the bottom tier ones

[balmy blade]

How much do internships matter in getting ft interviews?

[steady obsidian]

im kinda getting nervous about grad 22

is it gonna be more def to get ft than internships

i almost died getting a junior yr internship, ft gonna be a whole new ballgame

[barren night]

Yeah does new grad recruiting for summer 22 start the same time as intern stuff? Like june/august?

[steady obsidian]

i'd assume so

[barren night]

would it be possible to get interviews at big n places with only 1 internship? Tbh i’m worried about ft recruiting too, just gonna work hard to get a return offer.

[lethal ore]

Yea I am worried about that too

[warm crystal]

It surely is!

My friend got interviews from microsoft and Amazon with just 1 internship at BMW

[flat vine]

with amazon its very possible

[barren night]

that’s good to hear

guess the lc grind continues

but tbh reading stuff on blind has scared me away from amazon a bit

which might be me being stupid

[weak oracle]

Amazon interns are Pip Proof so just flip amazon into something else

(pip proof while they're interns)

Or just specialize heavily to where it's a PITA to pip you

[barren night]

yeah i was talking about for full time for next year, already got rejected from amazon this year lol

[weak oracle]

f

[steady obsidian]

walmart pay is SO SUS

goddamn, specially in AR

startups be throwing money at interns but not walmart

[flat vine]

i heard amazon as an intern is much less stressful than amazon FT

[steady obsidian]

out of all fangs, amazon is highly team dependent

if i were to get offers from all FAANGS, I would take Amz last

but if amz was my only choice, hell yeah we going to Seattle

[upbeat fossil]

yeah... amazon isn't great. best way to put it would be they have the highest odds of being put on a shitty team

[steady obsidian]

well said bro

im in healthcare industry this summer so i feel like i'll be putting a dent to this pandemic

[abstract tiger]

Anyone has intern interview at wepay?

[formal finch]

anyone interview for zoom ?

[amber lark]

@abstract tiger i did the OA which was kinda bad cause test cases didnt work

[frosty ginkgo]

can i have ur blessing plz

no faang only hft interviews

[cyan valley]

fr

[shell skiff]

got interviews at fb & google with 1 internship so you are fine

[spice fractal]

any tips for hft internships?

or is it just straight lc into the ground

[abstract wagon]

chad

[steady obsidian]

Ye bro

[cyan valley]

Which prev?

[shell skiff]

prev?

[final hawk]

they meant your previous internship 🙂

[shell skiff]

ah

american express

[cyan valley]

😮

[balmy blade]

@shell skiff Wait yo can u dm me I have a few questions about amex, tryin to pick where to intern

[shell skiff]

sure!

also @cyan valley i just realized you DMed me about amex too, my notifs were messed up so i didn't see it

yeah if both of you have questions i'm happy to answer :D

[terse torrent]

When is the best time to ask for offer extension? The day B4 or 2 days B4 expiry

[final hawk]

i just ask the earliest i can

[shell skiff]

^

[terse torrent]

Will they say no if they know u r going for another company

[final hawk]

just say that you have midterms and would like to put as much thought as you can into making a decision and can't do so at the moment

that's what i said

[terse torrent]

They know I'm going for another company cuz they asked

I probably should not have said but too late now

[lethal ore]

Is JP Morgan doing internships in person?

I read an article saying that they are planning to

[reef palm]

and i dont need sponsorship either

wasted so much time smh

[terse torrent]

BRUh

I found the reason why i am getting so many ghosts !

[amber lark]

seriously that so sad man

did you try to explaining to your recruiter that you don't need sponsorship?

cause i go to a Canadian school and also don't need sponsorship, my company is cool with it

[north musk]

I am currently applying to an internship and they are asking "How many weeks are you able to complete an internship for from the start date mentioned in the role for which you are currently applying? "
how am i supposed to answer this ?

[lethal ore]

Does it say how many weeks is the internship ?

Just put that

[earnest kestrel]

Does anyone know how much time we have to complete Amazon OA2 before we submit have to submit? Like how many day?

*days

[reef palm]

@amber lark Yeah the recruiter mentionned that sponsorship isn't an issue but it wouldn't be "fair" to consider schools outside the us

sus

[amber lark]

how long is your summer breaks? 3 or 4 months? convert that to weeks

[north musk]

Ok thanks

[lethal ore]

It tells you

I think like 5 days

[earnest kestrel]

Thank you just found it in the email. Was hidden between all the sentences

For anyone who took the OA 2 how was specifically the coding question and leadership principles

[ashen needle]

if i have mlh fellowship, a internship at a small company this summer and then a co op at a well known company in the fall, whats the most efficient way to prepare for summer 2022 in my free time

i was thinking pretty much just perfect resume and grind leetcode

[lean nexus]

fucking relax lmao

[ashen needle]

im just wondering lol

i have nothing else to do on the side for CS rn

[lean nexus]

you should honestly consider it since you want to be mentally healthy going in to interviews

[ashen needle]

yea i guess

i dont feel all that stressed tho

school is what really stresses me, and doing side projects and other cs stuff is when i chill usually

also for reference, my question was referencing like out in July or August, not right now

[abstract wagon]

waitlisted for intuit swe internship

[lunar dagger]

anyone do the discover sophomore interview before?

It's a 30 min time slot so it looks beh but I'm nervous

[lunar dagger]

if you got waitlisted then there's hope! It looks like they really cut down their applicant pool and rejected most ppl who would otherwise have gotten final offers. You're set

[cedar sentinel]

yea u can put whatever u want, SWE, SRE, CEO, etc

[lethal ore]

Can I put founder on my resume?

[formal finch]

Can I put ex Tech lead?

[worn saddle]

"soon to be billionare"

[silk ridge]

future tech lead

[obtuse spruce]

(as a millionaire)

[marsh burrow]

You’re better off listing your role as swe intern

Or pm intern

[still gazelle]

why

[terse torrent]

this

@still gazelle

[still gazelle]

[gloomy lodge]

Question, im in my sophomore year and I don't have an internship set up. Should I keep applying or just focus on fixing my resume and grinding leetcode? I'm learning python rn and building projects, and also doing some leetcode problems.

Also, if i dont have an internship this summer would it decrease my chances of getting into faang my junior summer?

[balmy blade]

Sophmore just grind lc, and do side projects.

[balmy blade]

Yeah some faangs require 1 past internship or top tier school

[gloomy lodge]

darn it. I guess if I get lucky and get to the technical interview I gotta do very well.

Thank you though 😄

[balmy blade]

What school u go to? @gloomy lodge

[gloomy lodge]

Is not a top tier school, is a small private school in SC. Wofford College

[weak oracle]

Honestly kinda useless on a resume imo, due to title inflation

Usually intern salaries aren't very negotiable

[lethal ore]

Some people get it without it too but it just hard work and luck

[balmy blade]

No like google im 80% sure for their SWE is 1 prev / top tier / luck.

u cant negotiate intern

[lethal ore]

Yea for Google I agree with

I was talking about like Amazon lol

[sinful tinsel]

Facebook?

[balmy blade]

Not facebook I dont think

[balmy blade]

^

[dark junco]

How good is an internship at a pretty big non tech company? Should I get a lot of interviews as a junior?

[sage hinge]

anyone work as an intern at walmart labs before

been hearing lots of good things but then i read blind and everyone hates it lol

[dark junco]

Blind hates everything

I think it's supposed to be pretty decent

[shell skiff]

i-

[lilac cloak]

is that bay area?

some big bucks tho

[weak oracle]

Colorado lol

I presume Bay Area even more

😳

[lilac cloak]

o.o

big bux

i think bay area TC

is around there

wao

huge hourly rate

i thought all interns besides app had same pay but ig not

[charred roost]

i guess I'm moving to colorado then bois

[weak oracle]

Yeah AS is the exception cause they’re always basically a level above normal SDE

New Grad AS is Level 5

They make about 240k right outta school 😳

[lilac cloak]

ah interedting

yeah that sounds like SDE2 TC

[lilac cloak]

they undergrads too?

[weak oracle]

Masters or PhD, but most schools let you do Masters in a year so def worth IMO

Especially considering the cool stuff you get to work on

[abstract wagon]

wtf

[weak oracle]

?

[charred roost]

240K as a new grad is wild

[charred roost]

Pog

[abstract wagon]

im still interviewing for 2021

[charred roost]

yeah Google is already recruiting for 2022

[abstract wagon]

or at least waiting for response

[abstract wagon]

damn already

[charred roost]

Yeah someone else sent another recruiter email earlier today

[weak oracle]

[jagged hare]

[gentle cradle]

[steady obsidian]

[steady obsidian]

Is there anyone have interviewed with Myst AI?

[warped wind]

it was the opposite for me lol

[frosty ginkgo]

U just don't get pro benefits afaik

[abstract wagon]

lol this is so vague

Strong problem-solving skills, out of the box thinking and a desire to innovate.

Ability to take requirements and turn them into code 

Desire to study new and challenging fields in computer science 

[polar valley]

I just joined this party, looks like yiu are cool guys
Do yiu know some opportunities in Hungary?

[strange blaze]

Has anyone interviewed with cdk global? I was wondering how the interview with the panel of engineers is structured

[lean nexus]

does applying on jumpstart even do anything?

[charred roost]

[warped wind]

but still not publicly posted right

oh god

this reminds me of all the likely letter email threads from when I was applying to college

"did you also get that email?"

[final hawk]

i dont think the actual app is open and it wont be for a while, theyre just reaching out to people to stay in touch for when the app does open

or maybe recruiting events smthg like that

cause considering that they haven't finished recruiting for summer 2021 i don't think they'd start interviews and stuff for summer 2022 or anything, just reaching out to people/doing recruiting events

[steady obsidian]

bruh

recruiters be BLOWING MY PHONE UP

omg bruh where were these fuckers in September?!

[final hawk]

nah i don't think they're doing interviews or anything yet google slow AF

[warped wind]

their team matching process is slow from what I've heard

[final hawk]

that is absolutely true

[steady obsidian]

would y'all take Google over pay?

[warped wind]

depends on how big the difference in pay/prestige gap is, location, and team

[steady obsidian]

how do u politely decline offer

to keep a door open in the future

[timber sky]

Anyone interested in lower level role at Nvidia for summer

[low epoch]

no doors should ever, ever close when you decline an offer
you can do it through email no problems

just tell em you appreciate the offer, were excited to be considered, but you can't accept it at this time

[charred roost]

Damn IMC is also recruiting already for Summer 2022

Just got an email asking me to send over my details

[sinful tinsel]

ah ok

[slim creek]

[warped wind]

[warped wind]

did they post their position already?

I got invited to and attended their webinar thing but can't find the position on their careers site

[charred roost]

according to the email I got, the application link I got was a "exclusive, invite-only link"

But it just seemed like a regular listing on their workday page

[balmy blade]

bro IKR

[formal finch]

That's about it

[weary delta]

[charred roost]

US

Specifically Chicago

[weary delta]

oh cool

[warped wind]

[dark junco]

The more referrals the better?

[steady obsidian]

[dark junco]

Fr

[void grove]

Do you guys find its too late to look into summer internships?

And has anyone received US offers being canadian?

[thorn leaf]

yea ive given up on summer

gonna start on the fall grind soon

[thorn leaf]

would you say theyre mostly mid sized companies which are known to still recruit for the summer this late?

or any chance of big names still recruiting?

[abstract wagon]

yes

[steady obsidian]

i got my offer for last summer internship in April (2020)

that was my first internship

you know what I didn't give up? Hope

ever since August 2020, I have applied to 400 places, failed more than 100 interviews (as a junior, second internship)

you know what I still didn't give up? Hope

signed an offer bay area last Sunday.

never give up hope

[ashen needle]

Nice man

I agree

[cyan valley]

[cyan valley]

Na

International hard as it gets

[thorn leaf]

rip 😦

[abstract wagon]

no response from linkedin almost a week -> im rejected right?

[split fractal]

after interview? yeah your chances are lowering heavily

thats what ive noticed atleast, if you're a strong hire the company usually gets back asap

[balmy blade]

I had a round yesterday and dead ass got a call back 30 mins later

LOL

[earnest musk]

goated

[reef glen]

Got an email for amazon app and sde info session..... should I prepare for any interview questions? Or is this just to talk about the program

[muted leaf]

it's prob just about the program

there are specific sessions about interview tho

both app and sde interviews were same except the length of them

[reef glen]

Got ya, thanks

[muted leaf]

npnp

[patent sluice]

@abstract wagon not at all a lot of companies just go by a set schedule

[abstract wagon]

if other people got called back in 2 days and its been 6 days...

[long sandal]

anybody know the questions to fidelity's hirevue?

nervous wreck moment

and idk what to do

[mystic warren]

you have unlimited time to answer hirevues though

as long as you pause your vid between the 2 tries

[long sandal]

hmmm

fuck they took away pausing

for fidelity

theres no way to pause the hirevue

hm i looked it up

and the way to pause is to close the tab

damn lol

[earnest musk]

F

[charred roost]

ye some hirevues give you multiple tries

and they don't limit the time you have between tries

You have to click a button on the site to start your second try

[long sandal]

it works

close the tab before the recording starts

[terse torrent]

[long sandal]

there is no way in hell im getting an offer

or moving to the next step of the application process

i was godawful at this

[terse torrent]

🙏

[slim creek]

when prayge doesnt prayge 🤔

[terse torrent]

all thats left to do is pray

if someone says i think this will be a good opportunity for u at the end of the interview does that mean u got it

[pliant hawk]

ive gotten rejected after they said this

[terse torrent]

fuck

that is wack bro

[pliant hawk]

they were onmly hiring 1 person from the pool so thats prob why. someone else fit better prob

[terse torrent]

why do behavioral interviews throw me off so much lmfao

it wasnt terrible it wasnt great

he had to dig to get what he wanted and some of my answers were lame

[flat vine]

probably means they put in good feedback for you but i wouldn't say it guarantees an offer since a lot of other stuff could happen

[terse torrent]

fair

[abstract tiger]

Did anyone clear technical round1 of wepay?

[steady obsidian]

wait a damn second

github just blueballed us throughout the year?

[frosty ginkgo]

What happened?

Only thing that happened to github was that they made a dark mode more similar to discord of some sense

[steady obsidian]

they said they'd open internships up but they never did

[frosty ginkgo]

Ohh nvm lol

[steady obsidian]

just rejected offers... omg it feels so good

to be on the other end to reject a company

[earnest musk]

party has returned

@steady obsidian what was ur final decision bro

[steady obsidian]

u know that company that's doing vaccinefinder.org?

[flat vine]

because it's very low effort

[velvet badge]

Don’t think this is the right chat to ask that question in

Lol

[formal finch]

as asian, i would be kinda salty if i saw that

low effort and you can tell why you choose yellow background

[velvet badge]

“Yellow” background part is what got me

Like damn

[formal finch]

i suggest not talking about it here

just some advice bro!

[flat vine]

as an asian myself i almost want to passively aggressively congratulate that for going out of ur way to do the bare minimum

[formal finch]

bro stop it

i know your trolling

i suggest u to stop rn

[terse torrent]

i think asian ppl dont want to associate themsleves w yellow bcuz that in itself is kinda sus

[formal finch]

[vague palm]

[livid anchor]

What are the chances anyone in here had to go through the security clearance process

If so DM me 😄

[vague palm]

Like when you have an offer and you're getting a background check?

It's a PIA

Doing it through this company called infocububic and their instructions are so vague

[livid anchor]

Like filling out the SF-86

[vague palm]

Oh je suis dans la 🇨🇦 so je ne sais pas

[crimson brook]

[neon ridge]

Do you guys know any fintech companies that are still hiring?

[marsh burrow]

How much money can you save in NYC if you make 300k and you live way below your means

Is it possible to save 15k/month?

[balmy blade]

Ur a troll LOL

[marsh burrow]

If you save 10k/month is it possible to live off of 60k per year in NYC?

Because of HCOL

[flat schooner]

yes currently living in midtown manhattan and spent around 2k5/month on both rent and food

before covid that could go up to 3k5/month but 60k is more than enough if you're single

[upbeat fossil]

no they're not

[marsh burrow]

How safe is NYC? That’s another concern I have

[green salmon]

@marsh burrow

Depends where in NYC

U livin homie

[stray spoke]

Thats a high tax rate

[narrow patrol]

nyc and sf are that bad

[flat schooner]

I'm living in a 2br but my friend who's living in a studio in upper east is paying around 1k6/month

rent's been cheaper since covid

[marsh burrow]

How many tax deductions are people generally able to take to net more

What about properties or side businesses. Will that help lower tax rate?

[charred roost]

HRT is I think

Just got a message on Handshake inviting me to an event theyre hosting about their Systems Engineering internship

[dark junco]

@floral ravine do you have roommates, live in a different borough, or just pay a ton?

[abstract tiger]

Did anyone get reply from vocera communications? For internship interview availability

[flat schooner]

even before covid it's not hard to find studio in upper east side for 2k5/month or even below

rent is not cheap here but def not as high as some ppl said unless you only wanna live in apartments with pretty view

[frosty ginkgo]

i mean why dont u calculate it

you'll earn 300k/12 per month which is 25k a month

assuming you dont eat, be homeless(no rent), dont buy water, and dont buy anything in general you should expect to survive for 2 days

so u'll earn ~1600$ before dying and you save all your money

or maybe 3.2k-4k for 5 days of no water

[crimson cave]

Has anyone had expeierence with MetLife software engineering internship process or the Code Differently stay ready program? I have an offer from the stay ready program but I’m not sure about it.

[autumn forge]

Has anyone had a phone interview with Splunk for Software Engineer Intern role? If so, mind sharing some details how your's went?

[charred roost]

jesus 1.7k

[ancient flower]

what exactly does living in a living room mean?

o

that looks like a full room

[dark junco]

Yeah for sure

[lone orbit]

Bro that rent sounds crazy

[pliant hawk]

is socal cheaper then bay area?

[lone orbit]

Yeah where im from these places go for 500ish

Yikes

Damn thats crazy

Good thing its remote now

Lol

Also keep up that youtube grind, i just saw your channel haha

Yeah good luck, i was hoping to start a channel to teach comp sci lol

But there’s a lot of channels out there.

Oh nice!

Man been so long since i shared something on social media

[charred roost]

Now that I think about it

I don't think I've posted on social media in a few years lmao

[lone orbit]

Me neither

[abstract wagon]

is cloudflare lc for all teams? says data structures in job description

[ashen needle]

question

how to get fintech

[warped wind]

can companies please stop asking for my SAT scores

[lean nexus]

git gud

[ashen needle]

bro

good point

[crimson brook]

Which ones?

I feel like citadel was the only one in their app and I just left it blank I was (and still am) dumbbas hell in high school lmao

[humble sparrow]

spacex?

[crimson brook]

Oh fuc I didn't even apply

Do they do fall or spring?

[humble sparrow]

not sure. i know tesla does

mckinsey, bcg, etc. also ask for sat scores iirc

[crimson brook]

Me realizing I forgot to apply to all of those rn

[humble sparrow]

eh they're not the best for engineering i think. more for consulting

[night surge]

Some banks ask for SAT/ACT too

No clue on how that does anything though

[tropic garnet]

HRT firms usually ask

[night surge]

Like what is good to them

[tropic garnet]

HFT*

[humble sparrow]

I was gonna say a lot of financial firms do too but I couldn't remember which off the top of my head

well it's a common way to filter candidates for like investment banking etc

so they just use the same policy for engineering I guess

not sure why

[night surge]

I guess

But what’s a good score

To them

[tropic garnet]

Seems really useless as a metric

[night surge]

Bc I don’t see much

Exactly

[humble sparrow]

yeah I have no idea

I guess there's such a thing as a bad score

[night surge]

I thought you take a OA and that’s it

[humble sparrow]

idk what a good score says about someone though

apparently some people didn't get the Citadel OA if their SAT was really low

[tropic garnet]

Grammar scores on SAT =/= technical ability lol

[humble sparrow]

I thought it was automatic

no I agree lol

[night surge]

Really? Wow lol

[humble sparrow]

it's more valuable for something like investment banking where you don't have a good way to evaluate candidates like LC

[tropic garnet]

Yeah fs

[night surge]

Imagine a background check after ur offer for SAT score

[humble sparrow]

and the job is more about effort than intelligence anyways so you need people with high IQ basically

[warped wind]

this was IMC

[night surge]

Wait I remember you have to pay to send ur scores, does that happen here too? Lol

[humble sparrow]

i have no idea lol that'd be whack though

[warped wind]

but yeah spacex asked

[tropic garnet]

They prob take unofficial but not sure

I submitted unofficial transcripts for background checks

[humble sparrow]

amazon background check didn't even ask for employment history 👀

[tropic garnet]

Wtf

[night surge]

[humble sparrow]

literally just check this box if you haven't been convicted and then put your ssn in and that was p much it

[night surge]

In a sense, that is more important

Save them the cost of verify the rest lol

[crimson brook]

Amazon is doing checks this yr alrdy or is this for prev year?

[humble sparrow]

yeah I got it like yesterday

[crimson brook]

Oh heck when did you accept your offer?

[humble sparrow]

like november?

it's by start date though i start in <2 months so they're starting to send onboarding material

[crimson brook]

Oh makes sense gotcha damn you were in this early

I've heard ppl getting their stipends alrdy and swag and Ive only gotten my location survey

[humble sparrow]

oh when's your start date?

i think they're still doing may people right now

[crimson brook]

May 26th or smtg like that

24*

I should be up next week then if it's 2months

[humble sparrow]

hm well you just accepted? idk i think i'd expect it in the next few weeks

if you haven't heard in a few weeks email asp probably

they take a bit to get back to you but yea

graebel should reach out first for the stipend

[crimson brook]

Yea I'll prolly calm myself for now and stop stressing LOL

[small fossil]

You can only use this command in #2021_grad_process or #2021_intern_process

[steady obsidian]

So i ghosted them in spring

[polar valley]

Is residences in US required to get an internship?

[last yarrow]

Don't think so. I'm living in the UK but I'm an American citizen and am not having any issues interviewing for internships based in the US

[timber sky]

amex summer 2022 postings are out on linkedin

[balmy blade]

Lol NO chance

Do you think I could push back Amex 2021 to 2022

[night surge]

all I see are NSBE posts

[mystic warren]

if i start summer 2022 in august, are some big names gonna be full already???

[night surge]

probably not but that sounds scary lol

[lethal ore]

For swe?

[polar valley]

Should I contact company if they haven't sent any updates on initial application for more than 2 weeks already?

[abstract tiger]

Cisco gives same oa?

To everyone

[mystic warren]

as in you've only submitted an app and haven't heard back? cause that happens all the time

[mystic warren]

i think its a pool of questions

[polar valley]

I have been rejected from 1 position but the second is in silence, applied the same day

[mystic warren]

people apply to 100's and dont get internships and dont hear back from most

[lunar dagger]

Yeah if you get silence, expect a rejection

[polar valley]

But why wouldn't they reject at one time, I mean it is the same company

Can't see it Logically right

[abstract tiger]

How long do we have to wait after CISCO oa(3 problem done with all test cases)?

[night surge]

Same company but perhaps different positions are handled by different teams

The size of the teams vary so teams with fewer spots can finish sooner

Or even later if their deadlines allow it

[lunar dagger]

There's also no benefit to the company/recruiter to send or set up rejection letters. It's just a courtesy

[night surge]

[spark galleon]

Anyone got into HomeAdvisor?

[steady obsidian]

the joy I get from writing rejection emails to companies

"Thank you for giving me an offer however at this time, there isn't a good fit"

get reverse fucked

[winter citrus]

any chances of increasing pay after accepting offer?

[balmy blade]

🤡 intern salarys generally non negotiable and ESP not after ACCEPTING LOL

[weak oracle]

"I'm gonna renege if you don't raise my pay"
lol then fuck off

[balmy blade]

🤡 LOLOL @weak oracle

[silver sierra]

But those are the companies that accepted you and took you in 😂 the ones that rejected us can get fucked

How do you add to the salary sharing thread?

[charred roost]

i think you need to dm @small fossil with !salary intern to do so

[woven wren]

Hey guys can I get some advice?

I got an offer from Walmart Global Tech for a SWE intern position and an offer from ServiceNow for a SDE intern position and I'm having a hard time choosing between the two

Which one do you think is better for resume boosting and would look more "impressive"?

And overall, which one is a better investment?

[sage hinge]

full time also spams linkedin

[balmy blade]

Im telling you rn that question is a no brainer

[woven wren]

LMAO ok imma assume you mean ServiceNow?

I've been trying to make up my mind about it I feel like I just needed that affirmation that I'm making the right choice 🥲

I'm just worried working with ServiceNow is gonna brand me a certain way and it'll be hard to jump to say FAANGs and such

But with Walmart I'll be working with eccomerce which is a little more broad

Also my title for ServiceNow is Software Developer and not engineer so idk if that makes a diff lol

[night surge]

oh yeah, how important is that title

one sounds cooler to me but im no recruiter

[sage hinge]

personally the walmart one sounds cooler even tho i reneged them lol

if ur walmart location is on the west coast i'd go walmart otherwise i'd go servicenow

[simple flume]

@night surge@woven wren Honestly, when you put it on your resume, I would just call it what you did, as long as you don't rank yourself up. Though I think Software Dev and Software Eng. are interchangable and probably have to do with what lingo the company thought was hot at the time

[woven wren]

Yeah I have the Arkansas location ://

[woven wren]

Oh shoot rly? Who did u renege them for if u don't mind me asking

[west isle]

choose servicenow then, I would only consider walmart if it was the seattle/sunnyvale location

[sage hinge]

series c start up

[woven wren]

Ah okay though another thing tho that I probably should've mentioned is that for ServiceNow it's for their IT dept

[sage hinge]

oh

[woven wren]

I'm working in their innovation team which is just making little applications for their clients depending on their needs

[sage hinge]

did u ask ur recruiters what the role includes?

[simple flume]

Just cut the IT part off as long as you do SWE work

[sage hinge]

honestly idk the walmart bentonville is a turn off, but the it thing would be a huge turn off for me

[woven wren]

Yeah, right? Like why did they stick me in the IT dept lmao

[sage hinge]

just making little applications for their clients depending on their needs

ngl the it isnt a turn off but that part is

like id rather be working in an environment with prebuilt ci/cd pipelines and devops stuff + maybe a larger code base

hows the pay?

[woven wren]

40/hr lmao

[sage hinge]

not bad

hows the intern conversion rate?

[woven wren]

Hm no idea tbh, I might need to ask my recruiter but based off linkedin almost all the SDE and SWE interns convert to full time

[sage hinge]

I'd prolly go servicenow cause of the higher pay + conversion rate even tho the project u might be doing isn't as exciting
