#

But I'm supposed to graduate this week should I still take the internship

muted apex
#

did they have something like

#

'one semester of school left after internship' on their posting or something

#

Yea I

#

Applied with a December

#

Graduation

#

Lmaoo @muted apex

#

Cuz I wasn't sure if I was gonna pass

#

So I'm honestly still not sure

thin stag
#

@charred roost so i talked to the company who gave me an offer and asked for an extension since i was still waiting on a response from another company, the company that gave me an offer told me to let them know if i got a better offer so that they could see if they could do something on their side to improve the offer. however, today the other company i was waiting on emailed me saying they rejected me sadge . should i email the company that gave me an offer and just ask if it’s possible to negotiate salary or should i tell them another company offered me something better so that maybe they can raise the hourly salary?

lunar dagger
#

I personally wouldn't lie, but if you did idt there'd be any real reprecussions. I'd just ask them to negotiate and if they ask you to state the other company's offer, just say that you'd rather negotiate based on your worth as an intern rather than what the other company's paying you or something

thin stag
lunar dagger
#

I'd just ask them if they're up for negotiation and what their ranges are

#

And take it from there

#

Let them give you some sort of an offer first then give them a counteroffer

thin stag
#

is there any template out there on how to write an email like this lol

lunar dagger
#

I tried writing one for u but it's hard lmao

#

I think the main points to mention would be

#

1.) You'd like to know what their ranges of negotiation are

2.) You're grateful, but are ideally looking for a slightly higher salary (don't specify until they ask)

3.) Make sure to say thank you for the offer, and that you're extremely excited to have been given the opportunity to intern at x

#

And don't mention the other company

thin stag
lunar dagger
#

No problem man

#

Good luck!

thin stag
#

@lunar dagger should i discuss negotiation through email or make an email to set up a phone call in order to discuss negotiation?

#

i’d prefer through email since i feel like imma get nervous and mess up my points on the phone 😩

lunar dagger
#

Yeah honestly email

#

It'll be easier on your end

#

And it'll give them time to talk to whoever's in charge of budgeting

thin stag
#

could i drop what i’ve written so far, in order to see if it sounds alright?

lunar dagger
#

Yeah sure!

thin stag
#

Hi Recruiter,

Thank you so much for offer of employment! I am extremely grateful and excited about the opportunity to intern at CompanyX. I noticed that the base pay is $21.00 and I was ideally looking for a bit of a higher base pay. If it is not too sensitive, do you mind if I ask you what the salary range is for this role?

Thank you again.

Best regards,
alive

lunar dagger
#

Yeah that sounds good!

thin stag
#

ok you think i should mention a specific amount i’d like to increase? like $25 or nah?

lunar dagger
#

I wouldn't and see what the recruiter says

unreal knoll
#

anyone know where i can find the amex summer internship discord?

thin stag
#

alright thank you again, i’m hoping they don’t rescind the offer now because i ask lol

lunar dagger
#

Lmao they're not gonna rescind over asking for salary negotiation

#

Dw man you're chilling

#

Worst case they'll say it's nonnegotiable and you just accept

thin stag
#

yikes just a call from the recruiter, and they asked me how much i would be asking for, told them i wanted like a $4 increase and they were like “i’ll speak with the hiring manager, but we are kind of on a deadline and want to know if you are serious if not we moving on to someone else”

#

not looking good, might’ve just fucked up the only opportunity i got lmao PepeHands

lunar dagger
#

Bruh wtf

#

Tell them you're serious about the opportunity

#

And reiterate that you would PREFER a higher salary, but that it's not a deal breaker

#

But holy crap that's like kinda unprofessional imo

#

Like it's either yes we'll negotiate or no we're nonnegotiable

#

But I think it sounds like they want you to confirm that you're actually serious about it

#

And not gonna drop them for the other internship you mentioned

thin stag
#

exactly, i reiterated to them i much prefer to work at their company and i’m very serious about it, but recruiter was kinda being rude about it, meh if they say i can’t raise i’ll just take it at this point

velvet badge
#

Think you might be reaching a bit since this is an internship + your only offer

#

I would accept what they offered and take it ASAP lol

#

Especially if this was my only offer

humble pendant
#

yeah internship salaries are usually set in stone - it's pretty rare to be able to negotiate those.

thin stag
#

monkaS imma just accept it tomorrow then hopefully they not tired of me lmao

Hey guys Serious quetsion need some guidance,

Im fortunate enough to have gotten an offer from Western Union for a software engineering position for the summer. However It is an exploding offer. This means I have by tonight to accept the offer. However I have a final round interview scheduled with Coinbase for the systems administration role(not really much coding). I really like Coinbase and want to work there but there’s no guarantee I get the offer. Plus its pretty late in the season. Just wondering what you guys think. Im thinking of just taking the guaranteed Western Union offer. I wanna be as professional as possible and not burn bridges with Coinbase and be open to future oppurtunites.My goal is to become a software engineer or PM in the near future. I know this is a bad reason but my only worry is the name brand recognition (Coinbase being more popular than western Union in terms of industry. Also Coinbase Internship would not consist of much coding). I’m a sophomore about to go in my Junior Year hoping to get a FAANG or Unicorn internship for summer 2022.

Some background on me
-I am a Information Systems major (non CS) at a non target school
-Low GPA (below 2.7)
-No relevant industry experience
-Goal to become a SWE/PM in the future
-Minority( if that even matters)
-First Internship Offer

abstract wagon

take western union imo

obtuse pivot
#

no need to post in multiple channels

#

but WU

abstract wagon
#

sys admin looks way worse than SWE if im gonna be honest

split fractal
#

like wot

#

its an intern offer

#

you don't negotiate these

#

you also don't compare offers for an internship based on pay, it's meaningless on the long run

#

overall bad move, just say clearly that you are serious about that offer, and say you would like to accept

earnest kestrel
#

Also I would like to mention for coinbase final round I would have to make a Salesforce App in a weekend go through three more behaviorals and make a Salesforce App and present it in front of them for 30 minutes.

#

So tbh I think Ill just take Western Union

#

already emailed the recruiter

obtuse spruce
earnest kestrel
# obtuse spruce this is for sys admin? doesnt sound like it fits the job desc

Yeah Its for Sys admin. Before the second round I had to get a Salesforce Trail beginner Admin Cert. They want me to build a custom salesforce app using that salesforce program and I Have to make an app that meets the requirements they give me. For the role I would be doing a lot of customer support tickets and using the salesforce tech.

No need to mention the other company, you can just say that you have some personal circumstances that are preventing you from going forward with the process

Anyone ever had to go through HireRight for a background check?

lunar dagger
#

Yeah I just did my hireright background check like last week

thin stag
#

guys i have an update, recruiter told me all they could do was have an increase of $1 leaving it to $22, since they had to take into consideration experience, skills, etc. i took it since i’m desperate and probably shouldn’t have negotiated in the first place lmao what a risk, but i’m glad to say i’m going to officially have my first internship yep

How long does it take to get an offer from a company and how would I know if I passed the interviews? The interviewers didn't make many comments since I was able to solve the technical part and just told me I'm a good candidate. But its been a few days and I haven't heard back.

Depends on company

It can either take a few hours, days or weeks to hear back

you can recommend someone else for a job if you want to decline the offer?

Definitely not for large companies, but a sometimes small (like less than 10ppl) startups are open to recommendations

hey guys question, I failed some OA's at some companies this summer 2021 including some FAANG's I know some companies have a six month rule where you cant apply until the six month cool down is over after you get rejected. I got rejected in around feb-may in that timeframe. Am a fucked from getting auto rejected when apps open up for summer 2022? or does the cooldown reset?

#

When apps open up in august and september

simple jay
#

you could also just wait until after the x months if you're worried

earnest kestrel
#

Ok bet

#

I was just worried cause i know some companies open and close apps super early

simple jay
#

well for those all you can do is apply and see right?

earnest kestrel
#

True, you right

Can we still apply for summer intern in start-up now?

#

Mine is for a full-time position. But I know several people here had the intern interviews 🙈

sweet pollen
#

I fucked up extremely badly on this first day at my internship. At some point during the last meeting I went to (in which I was the only intern), someone asked a question. Then it seemed that everyone else was replying by raising a number of fingers between 1 and 5. I had no idea of what the question meant, but I ended up instinctively raising a few fingers too anyway, the same number of fingers my mentor was raising, because I guess humans have strong innate urges to copy what those around them are doing. Soon afterwards, someone asked someone else when their intern would start, and said “well, after they start and everyone is here, we’ll go through this and explain everything.”

No return offer for me 😦

abstract wagon

just get your tasks done on time, don't be an asshole (you seem nice so doubt that'll be a problem), and you'll be fine trust me

I was given a task and not told when I should finish it

I’m also unsure about when I’m expected to stop working? It’s 5:39PM and I want to have dinner and take a nap but I’m not sure if I need to finish my task first

You could probably message your manager and just ask for a deadline if they're available

Or email too

hey guys quick question Im an MIS major about to go into my junior year and by the end summer I'll have a SWE internship, and a Social Media Market research externship (unpaid) at Facebook(6 weeks in length), and will have office assistant at my college on my resume. Will that be enough to at least get some notable interviews/ OA's from FAANG Big N for summer 2022 assuming I apply early. Or am I overthinking this?

#

Just worried im behind compared to mad people who have two internships before junior year

#

also wondering if me being an MIS major is gonna put me at a disadvantage

simple jay
#

i think you’re overthinking it in the sense that it doesn’t seem like there’s much you can do anyways considering you have a swe internship and no one can realistically say whether or not any company will or won’t give you an interview

#

all you can really do is apply and try your best to not mess up the opportunities you get

#

i’d say MIS probably isn’t as well regarded as just CS, but I don’t think it’s a super big deal either and won’t be the deciding factor on whether or not you get an interview at 95% of places

#

there are people who go full time faang/big n/unicorn/quant or whatever places with 0 internships too and there are people with 4+ who don’t make it to their ideal company

#

neither are the average case though so take it as you will

runic tinsel

if a recruiter emails me for a position (let's say X) but my interests lie in anotherr field/job ID (let's say Y), how do I politely ask my recruiter to consider me for Y? I tried thiis with my paypall recruiter and she ghosted after that

craggy shuttle
#

only do so if u have any other offer

#

otherwise i would say do the interview

#

U would anyhow end up learning something good and who knows u might be interested with that role after the internship

What’s the general advice on applying, like should you apply as soon as a company opens apps or wait until later

grim agate

oh wow lol

velvet badge
#

Do you have any other offers lined up?

runic tinsel
#

Nope @velvet badge

velvet badge
#

If not , I wouldn't risk anything tbh. There's a chance they might go with another candidate who's willing to do the OG role

runic tinsel
#

Yeah it seems like the recruiter desparately wants to fill the role

velvet badge
#

What role is it?

#

Is it not SWE related?

runic tinsel
#

I literally tick all the boxes for the tesla one but I don't get hit up for that. Maybe it has something to do with me not going to an elite school or something but it's pretty damn obvious that I have no experience with C++ and compiler dev

thick ridge
#

you need to list your education & experience in 2-3 sentences

runic tinsel
#

@thick ridge Do you think I should send an email about this tho

#

Saying I have other interests

thick ridge
#

i mean I've cold called in a similar fashion

#

but with a much shorter email

#

generally its tough for a recruiter to take a chance on you tho

#

esp if you have no relevant exp

runic tinsel
#

It's a definite interview for the app engineering role tho

thick ridge
#

oh wait

#

i misinterpreted

#

they can probably route you the right place

#

just ake this interview

#

you have a lot to lose if you have nothing lined up

#

you'll have opportunities for ML later

runic tinsel
#

but i dont wanna do compiler dev tho

#

ill just take the interview as you said, because i know i'll get ghosted if i ask to be considered for another role

velvet badge
#

Take the interview, get the offer and endure a summer doing something you might not wanna do - cuz if this is your last chance you don't really have much of a choice sadly

runic tinsel
#

Yeah, I guess beggars can't be choosers

#

I'm just lowkey fed up of doing shit I'm not fully invested in, if you know what I mean

velvet badge
#

Yeah I feel that man. Just need to work your way up, keep at it and you'll get to where you wanna be
