I know someone with like a 2.something that didn't get dropped from amazon so odds are you're fine
unless you join like some consulting company bc for some reason they care or some trading firm
Facebook, Lyft, amazon, Microsoft, Netflix, google, stripe, square Apple
Idk what the I is
Intuit?
Facebook, Lyft, Apple, Microsoft, Intel/Intuit, Netflix, Google, Amazon, Stripe, Snowflake
am zoomer so intel didnt pop up
Intel is slowly getting crushed by AMD anyways lol
I'm assuming this is about AMD and the new Mac ARM chips
speaking of, have any of u bought the new macs
has anyone done groupon onsite?
Yep
Onsite is 1 hr of a LC medium, 1 hr system design, and 1 hr random logic questions involving a database. After that was 1 hr final behav/coding with hiring manager
a friend of mine did and said it's crazy good
he mentioned trying to open like 50+ chrome tabs, netflix, an IDE, and the fans still didn't kick in
anyone get the twitter email
damn, now i can finally buy a mac and say
macbook is my (••) ( ••)>⌐■-■ biggest fan (⌐■_■)
did google/facebook/microsoft new grad apps never open this year?
microsoft fb did, google didnt
when was fb open?
I applied august 18th
dang I looked back in oct and they were already closed
I don't think they hired too many external new grads anyways, my friend referred a ton of ppl and they all got rejected
headcount was filled by mainly return interns
I interned there 2019 and got return offer and was still told by recruiter to just look on career site lmao
i guess thats what happens when u dont take the return offer
lmfao
Is it super difficult to get a fulltime position (as a software engineer) after I graduate (bachelor) and don't have an internship experience?
I am under the impression that it’s like
Several tech internships > one tech internship > several non tech/mid tier > one non tech/mid tier > zero internships > zero projects/experience
I think if u were to work ur way thru fortune 500 with no internships however, given a reasonable time frame u will 100% find a ft job
I've gotten interviews from a decent amount of companies without internship experience
I have some research exp keep that in mind (mostly physics)
Has anyone interviewed with IBM?
Anyone know if/when Google will open new grad roles?
Did anyone ever get the single 30m final interview with amazon for new grads, and did you have to do any LP questions or was it strictly questions about your OA2?
Intel is the "I" iirc
P sure it’s both
Anyone have any idea what to expect in the Optiver data science OA?
anyone know if fb is going to start hiring new grad swe roles? has any non-intern been able to get an offer?
Do many companies hire summer (August) grads?
do yall think more tech companies will open apps this coming spring? such as CZI, Squarespace, etc
Netflix taking interns for first time? 👀
did you see their form tho? seems like you have to be highly specialized in a "grad" level subject QQ
Yeah I saw haha I can’t imagine this internship will be easy to get at all...
I said this before but 99% sure they’re not going to
every non-intern who's applied, even with referral + stellar resume has gotten auto rejected
my friend's referrer told him the moment he submitted it into the system, it was a reject a few min later
anyone interview with braze?
anyone interview with datadog?
are people getting OA or something for Amazon 2021, I applied in Aug 2020
i'm in the interview process right now
Hi guys, did anyone interviewed for Micron
Is this the position for Datadog New Grad?
facts i go into walmart with my internships cancelled with only projects
Recruiter told me they won't know until January, and if they were to open it would be in January
Thoughts on Seattle vs Bay Area?
San francisco > Seattle > rest of bay area imo
Well I just saw and there werent any. They did have an applications programmer role that opened up last semester
Yeah but no new grad 2021 role in Mountain View, I don't think they'll open this year
Yeah
Guys, I just got done with 2 rounds of Bloomberg technical
Now I have HR in 10 minutes
Any tips?
dont panic
lol try to have your compensation talk right after so you don't need to schedule another one
And I'm not good at behavioral
i've been waiting 3 weeks to have mine 
oh man
this is for new grad?
do people get rejected after HR without manager interview??
And is HR round a good sign?
anything is possible lol, just try to be friendly
usually they won't waste time on HR unless you pass technical so yes
good luck @whole yoke !
Done with the HR. Manager round scheduled. People done with manager round please PM!!!
Thank you ! :)))
Which role is this?
New Grad SWE Bloomberg NYC
2021 right?
yeah
Has anyone taken Goldman Sachs coderpad for the technology analysts role recently?
Did they at least get you the offer letter
In case anyone else is looking to apply or gets this OA:
It was one algorithm/coding problem in python to compute the probability of a particular event dependent on the input. sort of LC style, but idk what level.
Then some coding problems using python/pandas to manipulate a data set and figure out some stuff
then a qualitative thing about what you would do or look at in order to answer a question about some data set
Then several probability questions. Not too bad overall
nope, I was supposed to get a call yesterday to talk about comp but recruiter didn't follow through
sent an email this morning and radio silence 😿
Aw rip
lol I may need you to look up the hiring managers email so I can contact him when ya start
No problem lmao
Hello! Has anyone got/done an ebay codesignal for new grad?
Anyone did 30 minutes final round with Amazon for the new grad role?
it looks like you got the meme final
That looks like SWE II tho
How much is the difficulty of ebay codesignal OA?
not new grad
pretty rng, it's a general assessment test. but ideally it should be 2 Easy, 1 Med, 1 hard
anyone did the twitch take home and found it an order of magnitude easier than the previous one?
what position is this for?
"What is your favorite programming language and why?"
I absolute hate when this question is asked on applications
anyone know what Orchard's numbers are?
Ordinal numbers?
no, like what's the TC for Orchard, can't find any in the new_grad_salary_sharing channel
@half walrus you have taken their OA?
yes
how was it
It was quite some time ago. IIRC, one LC easy, and two LC mediums imo
o thanks
lol same
I did it today, it was two mediumish problems but I didnt find them hard
@wooden tangle Thanks!
Salary is 125k, stock is given as # of options
did u get to the final round perchance?
and do u go to the final right after OA, the email I initially got didnt mention anything between the final and the OA
"After you’ve completed the HackerRank exercise, we'll follow up with an update. Should you move forward, the final step in the process will be a virtual “onsite” interview panel, which will take roughly 2.5 hours. " - from my OA email
good luck!
GL
ty! :)
Thats so weird to have a final right after OA tho
Please don't share specific questions, it's against the server's rules
my bad, noted!
np, you're good
Yea got offer
how many technical rounds? Any system design rounds?
LC Medium/hard?
1 ood 1 lc med 1 behavioral
I see, ty!
Has anyone had Amazon 1 hour phone interview for SDE 1 or SDE 2 after the Online assessment? I would like to know the experience. Thanks
@whole yoke how difficult were the technical rounds? I have my first technical next week!
ikr it dont make any sense lol
Phone Screen: Top K stocks ( extend for streaming data)
Onsite: 4 LC mediums (3 code and 1 approach discussion) .. all under BBG tagged
mines wasnt under tagged
good luck! 🤞
Recently I have interviewed with Bytedance Singapore. It's been 4 days since my last round but didn't get any update. Should I take it as a rejection?
It’s neither rejection nor offer. Just wait little more like a week or two and send them a followup if you want
Is 3/7 on Amazon OA1 enough to move on to next round
My amazon application says "moved to another job" after 3rd OA (no interview) does that mean reject?
Any tips for Amazon OA1?
I’ve had to wait over 7 weeks for an offer before lol (not with bytedance though)
That's a long time! Curious to know how did you responded lmao
Do you remember what question you got for the first technical round?
Jesus christ 2 lc hards? Getting nervous for my virtual onsite.
Recently I have interviewed with Bytedance Singapore. It's been 4 days since my last round but didn't get any update. Should I take it as a rejection?
@drowsy cloak fwiw i got reply in 1 week for internship at bytedance singapore
What is the virtual onsite for new grad SWE for BB like? Is it 2 or 4 LC rounds?
What is the IXL process?
I got a response within a week
2 technicals (each usually covering 2 LC meds), 1 HR round, 1 HM round (usually behavioral)
Well I did it last Thursday
and my hr doesn't reply me about the status
Maybe it depends on the team? I interviewed for the applications team pretty early (last september). It's also possible they have more applicants due to their recent IPO
alright thanks!
did you have the hr round after the 2 technical rounds on onsite day?
oh okay, nevermind...
OA -> phone interview -> final round
What can I expect from 2 round at Bloomberg? I was told in the email it's going to take 60-90 min and it will involve data structures.
Probably like 2 LC questions?
Prepare bloomberg tag lc questions. 1-2 lc medium in each round.
Thanks
hey dude! I just got hackerrank for C3.ai. What could I expect?
2 questions, 1 easy 1 mid
For those who got past HR for bloomberg, what was the Senior Engineer round like? They said they may or may not ask coding questions so I'm not sure what to expect
Thanks! Do you remember what sort of questions?
Hi Guys, can anyone share good resources to prepare OS concepts for interview
And this is for new grad?
yep
Anyone did Credera or Tessian OA?
Till date Microsoft is the only company whose application platform has parsed my resume perfectly (to auto-fill in the form) without any bugs. Didn't know it was actually possible.
maybe its just ur resume formatting 😛
hi, has anyone here gone through the cruise interviews (any c++ related role) ? im a junior but I want to know what to expect for next year
what’s the final round?
3 technical interviews + 1 behavioral
Software Engineer compensation at Intuit ranges from $138k per year for Software Engineer 1 to $386k per year for Principal / Architect. The median compensation package totals $185k. Get a look into the base, stock, and bonus package breakdowns as well as Intuit's standard stock vesting schedule.
Can you tell us what the 4 LC mediums were? Are you expected to get it perfectly with all edge cases?
Are there any good resources for API design?
rip someone broke Doordash again
"move fast break things culture"
Probably one of the new grads from this discord
lmfao
This is my experience too
Had their phone screen today, Technical was ok, behavioral was all over the place. Don’t know what to expect😕
what are the questions you faced? can you please share your experience?
what positions did you apply for, for each?
First 15 mins to previous experience and projects, 35 mins 1 LC medium, with feed back, 10 mins for my questions for the interviewer
is this for new grad? sounds cool
what's next?
I had my final interview, and waited a month before sending a follow up email. The recruiter said they are still waiting my feedback and will reach me once they get it from HR. Now it has been two months since my interview. At this point I think I'm neither "must hire" nor "don't hire", so that I'm just sitting at their backup list. Now, should I (1) keep emailing them regularly, maybe once a month, to show them my interest or (2) wait until they reach me because they told me to wait and emailing them again will bother them?
email them 1 in 2 weeks
would that be more beneficial than harmful?
Why would it be harmful?
The main reason is because they already said they are also waiting (whether that's true or not) and will get back to me once they have the result
and I don't think people like to answer to a question they have answered already
you just have to ask them about the progress and also it would be better if you ask more about the role
like what is it like
what more can you know about the position
I feel that would be helpful
Thanks for your input
no issues
you should take into account that the 1-2months you waited were partly holiday season time
Yup, otherwise I would have emailed them 2 weeks after instead of a month
Is Part 2 the 2 LC problems, or is that Part 3 now?
Part 2 is LC and a survey-like section that assesses your work style
Part 3 is a workplace simulation
Ok, thanks. Are the logic tests still there?
Like the brain teaser/IQ questions
Nope. Part 3 was about how to deal with SWE colleagues through email, some data analysis, short debugging etc.
Ohh, so they took out the logic tests completely.. ok damn
For amazon, can you test your submissions for the debugging?
@mystic mica did you do the debugging phase already?
I was asking for a friend. But I did it back in September
Yes you can test the submissions for debugging
oh I see
oh that's perfect
thanks
do you know if the bot has some of these questions?
it seems like it's only recorded the actual coding questions
No, the debugging questions got taken down as soon as someone posted them on LC discuss lol
You won’t really find them anywhere online
Hi! Has anyone interviewed with Livongo ( Teladoc Health ) ?
anyone take Akuna Capital's OA for Jnr Python Dev ? share your experience
all are new grad
For those of you who did the Orchard OA, how long did it take for you to hear back? I did mine Wednesday so it hasnt been long but Im curious
Yes! 3 questions but I was told you only had to do two and the third would count as bonus. You have 60 minutes. the questions were all LC Easy or on the easier side of LC Medium.
wow sounds really good. I had only the Order Marking question. only got 8/11 test cases. wondering what may happen next
like ~2 weeks or something but I did the first version of the OA
when was this? I think my friend did a previous version of the OA, same questions but different descriptions
like october
ahh ok
^
you only had one question? Thats weird, I wonder why I got 3
One long ass question with json inputs. lol
thats crazy, tbh I thought it was really weird how easy the questions I had were. I did Akuna for an internship before and I remember the questions being harder. Im not even trying to brag
diff roles have diff hackeranks. ive done the json input one and the other one with like 3 lc med/hard
yea but I did the junior python quantitate dev too, same as him I think
still havent heard back, did it Janu 3rd so I guess the holidays might have gotten in the way kinda
What's placement supposed to mean? This is for Oracle btw. Also does it mean i passed the bar and on team matching or something?
Anyone know how long it usually takes back to hear from Amazon after the final interview? I only had the one 30m one
At max 1 week
Ah alright, I had it on wed around 9am pst
You can check your portal to see if it reflects something new
You usually receive the offer the next day
anyone finished amazon new grad 3 round recently and got offer ? I heard almost everyone who got one round passed and few passed in 3 round
Anyone knows what's the criteria for virtual 1 round vs 2 rounds for amazon new grad?
*3 rounds
DM me
for bloomberg, are we allowed to apply with a different email but we before the cooldown period?
im sure they merge ur accs
RIP even if its a new job id?
I had mine 30mins interview on Tuesday evening. Haven't got any reply yet
Is anyone going to join Citrix at Fort Lauderdale for new grad?
nope
"Moved to another Job" on amazon job page means you got it right (for the new grad role)?
99% chance ye
sweet
is the amazon OA a bunch of dp problems?
yes for new grad
LC mediums?
recruiter told me to apply but if its the same shit that was in the first round of intern apps then I dont wanna do that again
idk why i said amazon
i meant tiktok lol
Bruh the tiktok OA was a competitive programming contest, amazon OA2 is not even close lmfao
thats what im saying
i took tiktok intern OA back in november and was like wtf is this
and recruiter for tiktok just messaged me on linkedin and told me to apply for ng
but if its the same sort of OA i dont wanna be bothered
Tiktok OA for new grads was 1 LC easy, 2 mediums and 1 hard
i feel like tiktok oa was 1 lc easy/medium, 1 lc hard, and 2 lc cancer
ROFL yeah.. the most recent wave was easier I hear, the one back in November was 1 easy, 1 hard, 2 mega-hard
How hard is it to get a new grad job at a hedge fund(Citadel, Jane Street, 2S, HRT, etc) without being a prior intern / not going to target schools?
half the firms you listed aren't hedge funds but its hard regardless
Fair, thanks
How to prepare for Amazon Onsite ?
i had 2 linked list
questions
linked lists
Should i do last 6 months top frequency ? or amazon top 50 list or what
are what i got for amazon onsites
@sullen forge pretty RNG / interviewer dependent - they don't really pick out from a specific list
seriously linkedlists ?
mhm
i grinded lc back in november in prep for the interviews i had
havent done it since lol
nah i gotta get back into it
cus i graduate soon
copy a linked list idk?
with random pointer ? @limpid lichen
@mint pollen nice .. i graduated in dec but griding since last 4 months and did a lot in dec
@limpid lichen yeah thats one of the most freq question
amazon? yea 100%
hahaha yeah.. may not enuf for dumb like me
were u doing interviews during those 4 months? or pure LC?
i was giving interviews
thats rough friend, you
but those were normal some regional startups ..got 2 mid tier as well.. by the time amazon came
you'll make a break through soon
i mean that its been 4 months since i did amazon OA
alright
oooohh
did one phone and now onsite
u got this
so really confused
just trust yourself
what do they generally ask for OOD
when is ur onsite?
for what it's worth you don't need to get 100% on the OA to get the interview
ik folks who have only had like half the cases passing on some of the harder problems
the onsite rounds after the OA aren't as bad
they're lc med-hard (but still easier than the OA problems)
med-hard easier than OA?
so what is on OA? extra hard?
yes
i didn't take the OA, I had friends that did and told me how hard it was
but i've heard of people getting lc meds on tiktok onsite rounds
well but what is harder than med-hard? haha
Yeah I can confirm ^
feels bad, I'm getting amazon Vancouver but I wanted Toronto 
I took the November OA but both my interviews were manageable
I'm in the exact opposite of your situation
Seriously?
Yes
Lmaooo I wish
I'm srs
be like "if you can find any positions in Vancouver, or others who would like to swap
🤔 give em a lil hint
as in, a problem where if you couldn't figure out that you needed to re-arrange a formula and get a quadratic equation and solve for the roots, you were not passing all the tests with just brute force
felt more like a cp problem than a standard lc hard
Hi ppl, I got a job offer and on my resume i put that i was completing a math minor but i wasn’t able to take the class i needed to finish it by graduation. i’m nervous that they are gonna find out and take the offer back. that’s pretty unlikely right? It’s just for a backend dev position
i think you're fine lol
pretty sure they just check that the major aligns and that you did graduate from where you said you graduated from
as long as you weren't actually like a completely unrelated major or something
Okay thanks i’m just nervous about it haha. Yeah still will graduate with cs
@zinc oar, Please run this command in the #bot_commands channel
Do you guys stay in touch with your internship mentor/manager after your internship is over? I've been unsure whether I should update my past mentors on my fulltime role and career plans and what the etiquette around that is so I'm curious what you guys have done?
What does moved to another job mean for amazon sde new grad(2021)?
Most probably an offer
Anyone heard of someone being able to change locations as a new grad? I got Vancouver but I wanted Toronto
Before or after your interviewed
If it's after you interviewed and it changed from "Software Development Engineer - 2021 (COUNTRY)" to "Software Development Engineer - STATE/Province/whatever" then that's the location you'd be working at and you will probably get the offer on Monday
Hey I already interviewed for the position. It does show a Seattle sde position for a sde role that I didn't apply To. Is it guaranteed that it's an offer?
99%
damn amazon really hiring like crazy
I finished OA like 15 days back but haven't heard back.
Anyone in the same boat as me?
People getting OAs for Amazon, because I applied in August and have not heard back
may'21
And when did you apply?
I also applied in August, I got the OA a couple of days ago so I guess you will get one soon
August as well
same
except mine is intern
Finished on 24th
and my portal updated on 28th to some different location, thought it was a positive thing
but no interview invite yet
is it worth applying for big tech companies (FANG) for new grad roles now even with a referral ?? please advice. would you even here back ? I would imagine they would be close to done with interviews
the time you spent even contemplating applying could have been enough to apply to them
always apply, worst they can do is say no
i meant getting referrals that would end up being a waste
at the eod can only reach out to some of them so many times
I don't see anything wrong with asking for a referral twice from the same person
just say the position was no longer open the first time
i see thanks for clearing that up
I didn't even see an option for putting in someone as a refferal for new grad
that's also true for many companies
its done internally. can't apply or mention using that
Hi guys, i applied amazon new grad in august last year and was put under no longer under consideration, i created another account in Jan to reapply, but it got disabled, is there any way for me to apply again as from the old account it does not let me
I don't think you can apply to same position twice
even after 6 months passed?
I guess
ok thanks
Any security engineers here?
when does new grad hiring season roughly start
like if im graduating april '22 when do apps start coming out
July 2021
There was an open application awhile ago
ahh i see
yea i got denied

ty!
Anyone who gave Tessian OA?
how long does amazon take to get back to you after final round?
anyone done the final interview for millennium management?
Are there any chances of new openings now?
i heard shopify is hiring more ppl for 2021
try to do both while everything is remote 
shopify has no explicit new grad roles because of the whole not believing in needing a university degree thing
Could apply to both, I think
@raw belfry
you basically apply to be an intern and then convert to full time at the end
All I see there is senior positions
their intern apps were out a couple days ago maybe they closed them now but not worth it in my opinion
like to be an intern again and then wait to get converted
when you could just start applying for dec grad roles if you can’t land something for may
Intern application closes Jan 17 23:59 EST
has anyone applied to nyt?
runtime error doesnt really have much to do with being optimal
just means there was an error
I have
Any new companies sending OA lately?
if I have my base salary in written offer slightly higher than my verbal offer. Should I confirm the change with my hr before signing it?
If it gives you a peace of mind than sure, but most likely the recruiter just rounded the offer down while saying it verbally
It actually got rounded up in written one
Hey do you guys know any consulting companies in US for Tech based positions( software developer positions) who are currently hiring out? If yes can you please share them here. Thanks 👍
i got mine recently
When did you apply for this and snowflake?
idk when I applied for flexport, maybe a month ago
snowflake maybe 1.5-2 months ago
do not recall
not new grad mind you, intern
@raw belfry i apply to amazon on september with referral, just got OA 5 days ago
Anyone know quantumblack tc?
yh i did yesterday
Could anyone tell me hows the amazon SDE new grad final interview?
What's the duration? And is there any live coding session?
Did you get final interview for SDE new grad? After how many days did you get finishing your OA3?
Why they will do the interview on Sunday lol
i thought he meant hackerrank
I haven't got it yet. I finished my OA3 2 days ago. Just wanted to know what to expect from it if opportunity is given.
Have you also given OA3?
How was it?
Hello guys,
I attempted OA1 (5/7) and OA2 (1/2, all test cases for first question and none for second) for Amazon and got OA3. What are the chances for making it thru and where should I focus?
hey guy
how many of you applied for amazon directly and got OA?
and how many applied thru referral
also is a test engineer role good to start out with?
I'm pretty sure you get the next OA unless you completely bomb the previous one (more than 1/7 for OA1 and at least 1/2 for OA2), as for your chances, only the amazon monkeys throwing darts know. It's hard to say what you should focus on for OA3, it's a workplace simulator, they will give you some problem and ask you what you would need to solve it (for example logs and session ids or something) and then you have to figure out what the root cause is, and you have to do fake emails discussing the problems
you get 7 questions for OA1?
Yeah
Same, I got 6/7 on OA1, 2/2 on OA2 , and did very well on OA3 but no interview invite yet
this was back in the 24th
and I haven't got a reject either
For me it moved to another job but literally nothing happening
so weird, it moved to another job BEFORE any interview
like wtf is going on
ok, thanks. Yes, I am pretty comfortable with doing OA3 but this time they have 3 x 45 mins of interviews - all back to back. So, just wanted to know what should I focus more on given my OAs performances until now.
What was your scores in OA1 & OA2
5/7 and 1/2
after how many days did you get interview after OA3?
Haven't attempted OA3 yet, planning to do it this weekend.
You might not get 3 interviews
whats the best way to get an OA?
Definitely no one can guess.... but little curious though
so, only 1 interview?
lol
what is this
is AMZN pure rng
lmao
honestly the industry recruiting practices are such a joke
yes
whats rng?
idk you just need either perfect score
or nearly perfect
pretty normal tbh
yeah i know that
but why do you think so
well all my friends got perferct OA
its not actually that hard
debugging is very simple
and OA is online, its not rocket science to max it
The point is in spite of doing that people have been rejected
they probably hire like a tenth of ppl who get perfect scores lol
or less
its not that hard to get a perfect OA
yeah, because you probably have to have some sort of score on your OA as a minimum and then its down to your profile/CV
what does that mean 
yeah because no one's gonna say "your experience/university/general profile is shit"
especially that i think they send OA autoamtically
cause i havent heard about anyone who didnt get it
They don't send the OAs automatically
Yeah I know people who applied at the same time as me and didn't even get OA's
I think he meant once you get OA1, there are almost no cases that I have heard of who didn't get OA2 or 3 after the process started off....
There are minimum cut offs, I know someone who didn't get OA3 after OA2, they couldn't finish any of the questions
ok..
still waiting 
👀
👀
yeah, exactly. Nothing crazy about that


nah that's definitely not true. i know people who haven't got it, and I haven't got it for a few positions either.
You can’t say amazon is total rng just because we don’t know the process. You don’t get a score for OA3 nor do we know what else they consider. There are tons of other factors including getting flagged for cheating...
it is complete rng bro idk what to tell you
That’s not what my final interviewer said when I asked why the 30 min was so easy 🤷♂️
There is of course luck in all applications (who reviews/ time of day / whatever) , but that doesn’t mean it’s rng lol
thats one dude in a behemoth of an organization

with a place as big as amazon i guess rng is expected
It could totally be rng, but we shouldn’t be claiming to know it to be such
i guess thats true
Nobody knows, that’s the point. There is “evidence” for both cases

what other factors are there
othe rthan getting flagged for cheating or OA 3 score
resume screening?
why do some people who applied in August get OA's later than others who apply after them
Maybe, nobody knows.
Unless someone has an in with a ASP recruiter 😆
Even after accepting an offer you don’t get a human contact assigned, it’s all through the system or a email alias for general ASP
I'd just chalk it up to their recruitment efforts being scattered / all over the place considering how huge they are.
That's kinda yikes lol
I guess that's bound to happen when you build a whole company on mechanizing logistics
Yea, not a fan of it. It’s bound to happen when you’re hiring as many new grads as them I guess. To give them credit, they are responsive to emails.
yea it's understandable at their scale
smaller companies doing it would be a huge red flag to me lol
has anyone interviewed with dropbox?
for fulltime? dont think they were hiring new grads this year
i did for intern @snow kayak
Anyone interviewed with Workday for their Orbital program?
yes, interviewed with a ghost
Any consensus at all on the best resources to learn/practice object oriented design for an sde1 interview?
Learn and understand the 4 principals of object oriented programming (google)
like truly understand to the point where you can explain to a 10 year old with simple examples
then implement a simple example using all those 4 principals
if you can do that it should be enough
This is literally why it’s stupid rng
To us, who don’t know how it works
For all intents and purposes it’s rng
You gave your OA3 on 24th December?
yes
for intern position tho
still similar
and I haven't got a rejection nor a interview invite, my dashboard is in some weird under review state after being moved to a different job
Strange
I need to get in contact with some actual recruiter who can answer wtf is going on lmao
but most likely I know that's never going to happen
New grads, how much do you spend/plan to spend on rent?
probably depends on the location XD
High COL
2-2.5k nyc/chi
600-700 GBP
Around 2k in Seattle
around 2k in SF/bay area
general rule of thumb is to spend no more than 1/3 of your monthly discretionary income on rent
$800-$1600 in Seattle bc I got student loans to pay 
Does anyone know about Amazon's WFH policy? Quick search in this discord ppl say end of June, but I've also heard start of fall. Maybe depends on location?
^ is it like actually set in stone by June? I doubt most of the population will be vaccinated by then
https://www.rentcafe.com/rent-affordability-calculator/ gives me $3.6k
Nvm that was pretax, its now $2,337 
hmm i see, thanks for that. it doesn't sound like they'll consider wfh as an option post-covid, huh?
I believe the website says at max, 2 roles
At least, that's what it said for me
oh aite ok
fyi the interview questions depend on the position
people who applied for full stack have reported getting asked questions about react
whereas if you apply for just back end, then you definitely won't get react questions, etc.
Hi what does do not leverage the print screen functionality mean ?
Does it mean we can't use System out print in assesment ?
This is asking for amazon OA
I think they mean taking a screenshot of your computer screen
ahhh, thank you, I do OA 1 without printing and was serious confused when they also ask same thing for OA 2
good to know, so whatever i do i shouldn't apply fullstack 💀
After doing OA you are inserted in a queue where recruiters can see your score and your CV. So they move you to final round based on OA and based on CV
how do you know that
New grads told me that. And since I am in EMEA the application is different for every country and I have been rejected with the same OA from some offices and accepted on others
Europe middle East Africa
oo cool TIL
Paying £285 in rent here as a new grad
Advice for 2021 grad with no work experience: I can code in python, which is what i use in Leetcode. I'm currenltly learning React so that I can build some projects. Should I keep applying for jobs now or wait until I complete some good react projects.
Apply to what you can now but also work on react projects on the side as well, basically try to do both at once
Hiring season is dry right now until Spring time so you should have time to work on projects
Any tips and resources you guys recommend for getting better at Dynamic Programming questions?
Thanks
Anyone here had to renge their current employer to get another offer? I'm currently interning part-time at a company and accepted a full time offer, but I'm expecting an offer that pays a lot more, Do I need to tell my current company right away? Since I'm doing part-time intern work with them it's a bit awkward to renge right now
Just bombed a bloomberg phone interview
Wowwwwww
first round?
No. Get the other offer first
Think about it. Do a little bit of research about the company, what you would have to give as rent etc and then reneg
the companies are IBM (current) and amazon (new offer)
What was the question if you don't mind me telling?
Do that stuff in the DM's cuz it's against the server policy.
ok, thank you and sorry !!!
I also took a Bloomberg phone screen btw
cool, how did it go?
anybody know anything about Carrier and their Graduate Hire Program?
About the same maybe Seattle slightly
^feel like it’s close enough to where either way you’ll be good just matters on which company better
anyone know what Amazon background check checks for?
Did my phone screen with SambaNova, it was really awkward. The code for the problem was in C++, a language I haven't touched in awhile but the interviewer said I could use Python3 even though he didn't know Python much. But switching the editor didn't switch the code to Python3 so we couldn't test it..... Like I know companies use specific languages but I told the recruiters ahead of time I prefer python3 for the phone screen. And I told the guy I've done a lot of stuff in C++ and C but damn its been awhile plus this is a new grad positon.
The problem description said the problem was from Project Euler so I tested my code out and it worked, emailed the recruiter to try to clear up the confusion because the interviewer really didn't seem to know python much at all
Lol he also seemed to think that switching the code editor to python would switch the testing code to python3 since he didnt come out with the problem, they just get assigned problems from a problem bank
As a new grad: Bay Area (HQ) or NYC (Remote) when almost half your team is remote?
So 3hr time difference?
@tired bay yeah 3 hour from those that are in PST. Some members are in ET as well.
True I have heard some people struggle with that but if it’s all remote probs have a good way to handle that probs come down to what work life u want
Anybody know if we’ll be seeing new job postings soon? Really thought there’d be more in Jan
does anyone know the new grad salary for unity technologies
@fickle wolf I would check Levels.fyi
Theres only one report
or the #new_grad_salary_sharing channel if not in there
for new grads do u just apply to the
normal swe roles
or is there specific "NEW GRAD" openings
Most companies have “New Grad” jobs or programs very rare that you have to end up applying to a SWE1 role
Has anyone interviewed for the platform team at c3?
Anyone hear back from Twitter yet? I think the last email said we should hear back by today at the latest
Anyone hear back from Twitter yet? I think the last email said we should hear back by today at the latest
@gloomy plaza they have been saying that for years and still ghosting
it said 7 business days so id give it 2 more days
unless u got urs much earlier than the rest of us
has anyone done phone interview for akuna capital's Junior Developer (C++) position?
its supposed to be done on codepair
Does unity have any new grad roles? I didn't see any
anyone get rejected from twitter today?
Nope, didn't hear anything from them yet
Why? Did you hear back already?
According to the email they sent everyone, we should hear back tomorrow or Thursday...
Looking for an advise:
I finished OA1 for SDE New grad role yesterday and received OA 2. Later on, I was contacted by another HR of Amazon, referred me a role and sent me an assessment. Now, my query is, would decision on any of the role affect the other?
Should I say HR I am not interested or go with it?
watch twitter ghost us all
lol "update in 7 days"
nah i didn't
i go the initial email though 7 days ago so i didn't know if they were still on track with reaching out to folks
Typical Twitter.
yo i gotta question: so i signed a new grad conversion offer last year but i just got a even better offer a few months later, should I take the better offer or stay?
or use that olive branch to swing into another offer? I kinda don't want this all to blow up in my face.
Old offer was for 104k in IA, new offer is for 128k in NC.
anyone know if american express is still taking new grads?
I'd consider if that's really much of a difference. Also do you prefer Iowa or North Carolina?
I guess in LCOL, 20k is a sizable difference
even though IA is probably even cheaper than NC, you will be super comfortable in both places with that TC
- unless you have a reason to stay in IA, NC has a little more going on I would think
holy crap $128k in NC as a new grad? that's straight ballin' congrats!
is this in RTP or Charlotte?
Apply -> OA -> "Are you still interested?" -> "Are you still interested?" -> 👻
@hazy condor When did you give your OAs?
Last week
Raleigh! And thank you
I prefer NC because the weather is waaaay better tbh
Ty everyone
I think I know my choice now
@stone monolith welcome to kirbs club
nc vinegar barbecue is legendary! rtp hands down for sure. good luck on your decision!
someone make me feel better about also potentially moving to rtp
(from ny
)
@mystic mica I studied here and I would say here is much cheaper than NY. And safer during covid I think
clarify you want new grad?
By giving them your availability
It sucks but they want closure
It helps to make a script or at least write down talking points
aight good shit thought it was only me LMAO
are you asking for software app dev role?
do you want to talk to them? you don't need to give your time if you don't want to
that bridge is already burned
Any hear back from Square after the OA?
does OA2 have camera?
how are they stopping people from cheating on OA2?
for Amazon
if anyone is interested in interning for a start up in silicon valley as a front end developer dm me
The pay around 25/hr part time. Need experience in React.js
could turn into fulltime with equity options (we are funded)
No they don't have camera
Doesn't matter seems like they give final round randomly... i got 7/7 in OA1, 2/2 in OA2 and did well in OA3. After OA3 Still got rejection
if u cheat on an OA thats on you, you probably wont pass interview; if you do, welp 🤷♂️
they sent out a batch of rejections last night
Hm
i'm expecting more throughout the day though tbh
Mine still says in review
they're probably trimming the herd as we speak lol
I believe it is OA to final. at least for intern that is what it is. and in the final it is like an LC round and a sys design round. then behavioral
but don't quote me on that 😬
For the Workstyles Assessment portion of Amazon OA2, do I just need to study Amazon LP and regurgitate?
yes
People say that... but I found it to be basically common sense
same ^
basically just learn what you need to prioritize for the questions (customers, deadlines, etc)
but its mostly common sense
Has anyone here interviewed with quora ?
Yeah I was, had the interview yesterday. hopefully it went well
7 business days so technically they should reply by tomorrow
Wait Monday was a holiday. So Friday
Isn't Twitter hiring a meme every year
I thought they mostly hire from conferences/career fairs anyway
This year it seems more legit
Ah I see
But yeah in past total meme
my tiktok recruiter told me to give her some time frames throughout the week and i immediately tell her "schedule it whenever i'm p free"
she says "sorry our interviewer is already booked for those time slots"
i heard tiktok moves fast but damn
Anyone gave OOD round for amazon ?
has anyone recently gave Bloomberg virtual interview?
anyone get a jumpstart completion form from plaid ?
yea i got that plaid thing
What's the role?
new grad se
it just led you to a link to apply on jumpstart
idk why they called it an evaluation form
someone take twitter and lmk how it is 😆
the one last year for internships was ridiculously easy
the one last year for fulltime was stupid hard
the last question at least
i saw from my friend
u had to make some ridiculous comparator
wasnt it the same application for both ft and intern at twitter this year
i just got the OA lol, does anyone know if its supposed to be hard
someone take it first 😆
yea who taking it for the team
i already signed but i'll still take it
yesss 😋
yea i signed too, i can tank it lol
i stg if i see another dp hackerrank im just closing the window
man i hate dp
pls take it and let us know 😂
2019 - 2022
LMAO
4 questions, 60 mins
and it's apparently already closed as of last year lmao
wtf is twitter doing
twitter recruiting is so weird
Yeah they scheduled me for an interview last year then rescheduled it then just sent me a rejection lol
They took like 4 months to prepare for this OA, then couldn't even get the dates right lmao.
The weird thing is how they said they dont do hackerranks and stuff...
But apparently, they are. With deadlines that expired last year 😂
I think similar message is posted on Tesla website: we don't do Leetcode or something like that..
list of prev q for twitter oa anyone
Does anyone know in general if big N still recruit newgrads in the winter / early spring?
or most tech companies in general for SWE
it's unclear rn due to the pandemic
Didn't Twitter say they weren't doing OA's this time around?
No clue but I just got an OA this morning so I guess they are still sending them out?
Interesting
who ever wants referral to TikTok reach out to me (plus CV)
It's super weird that they don't prevent you from cheating
Maybe they just don't really care
had Bloomberg today
too fucking hard
they didnt even ask me classic LC
just told me to explain whats happening in the memory
im not even doing cs bruh
Scared to do this plaid OA. Anyone have any insight?
When did you apply
has anyone taken the palantir onsite?
was it the phone call?
~a month ago
Did any1 receive an email from Tiktok saying that their coding interview was delayed because the recruitment process is on hold right now?
Just got bodied by my second interviewer in c3 on-site. Gg
2nd round
No LC?
Can you elaborate?
Like OS questions?
is the first round of bloomberg a technical or is it supposed to be a standard phone/HR?
in the email i got, it says it’s a technical screen
thanks
wanted to make sure i was following the same process in case they did something different for ppl who met them at career fairs
First round as in the initial phone screen? Should be the standard LC stuff
Technical. Very typical coderpad-style interview with 2 data structure and algorithms / system design problems.
anyone gave interview for oracle applications development?
Has anyone completed the Orchard OA?
yes
go on linkedin do entry level jobs in any city and click posted within 24 hours and there should be a decent amount posted every day
should get like 5-10 apps done every day until u get them all
got a Twitter interview somehow but also got the weird he email lolol
wait you got an interview? are you URM or is this through the regular pipeline?
if there's an urm Twitter new grad pipeline, that's the first time I heard of that LOL
anyone do optiver OA?
ah shit there isn't actually. they make new grads do the regular pipeline regardless i believe. all of their programs are for first-third years
I'm REALLY hoping twitter just uses OA scores to determine who moves on, and not another bullshit round of the "manual resume check after OA"
seeing how some people got the L already I really hope they finished the resume checking before they sent out the OAs
every other company has done a resume check after the OA, it makes me not even bother wanting to do OAs, i get full scores and they hand me an L after or just ghost me
for interns ive heard baseline four meds - meds and easy hards
easy hards 
last one was med-hard
stupid question
one was dp
i passed all cases but watch it not matter
sigh , twitter 😆
Has anyone done the orchard onsite
what team? if you dont mind sharing
There are specific teams for grads?
yea dm me
Orchard onsite was hard af
I found it pretty standard/manageable
Did anyone apply for Bright network technology academy ?
Okay, so some people texted me about BB, so im just gonna write it here.
Basically I got a very easy question, as easy as idk, something like 2sum
But then he told me to improve it. After third "improvement" I had no idea what else can I do and he just grilled me for like 30 min or smth like that.
He made me say different ways of solving this question (using backtracking or recrusion) and how would it affect the memory or what's going to happen if you call this function many times.
And at some point i even know whats there to add so I just tried to thing and how most of the interview passed
A pretty weird interview imo xdd
I was totally lost what is expected from me
Did you check for the question on leetcode? There might be a more optimal solution that existed which you missed out on, and what he was expecting from you
No, didnt find it on Leetcode. Well yeah, maybe there is a very very specific way of doing that i come up with
hypothetically, would saying you already signed an offer with a company be worst than saying you have an offer on hand with an upcoming deadline?
What about the other interview? And did you get through to the next round ultimately? It could definitely still happen
hmm so that was just one interview
im from LDN
i would potentially have 3rd and then 4th interview
Ah I see
Didn't get any response from Twitter. No oa no rejection, no update on smartrecruiters 😑
Same here. Wait till tomorrow I guess
people didn't get the OA yesterday until 4pm EST so it's still not too late
Btw does amazon typically ask ood questions for newgrads in the final rounds?
I didn’t get any but 🤷♂️
my last of 3 finals was ood
Can you tell what question they asked and what answer was expected? Like do they expect a detailed explanation with UML diagrams?
damn what a flex 🤤
The worst part about the whole thing on LinkedIn is that you see them saying they would need 2+ or 3 yrs of enxperience.Why would you put that in new grad positions?
just apply anyways
Ikr? Lmaoo
so all 3 interviews were OODs?
guess i'll be reneging 


idk i didn't see it in the email i think LOL also i didn't reply to the email yesterday so the recruiter just pinged me again wtf😫
Ohh makes sense. goodluck
ty!! i actually already took a different offer tho, so it feels weird to finally get a twitter interview and have to turn it down ahhh
anything other than Amazon LP that I need to study before taking Amazon OA3?
This helped me. https://medium.com/@scarletinked/are-you-the-leader-were-looking-for-interviewing-at-amazon-8301d787815d
damn i dont got medium pro
You can read a few free articles every month
Has anyone took the Twitter OA yet?
u can also just open it on incognito to read the article if u do run out
^ I think deleting cookies also might work
anyone who gets a twitter interview is a nerd
mods
if you make more than 100k right out of college, i think you should probably get a life!
Anyone who does recruitment for Twitter is a stinky poopoo head
thats a good chunk in austin
Has anyone heard from amazon regarding interviews for the Quality Assurance Engineer 2021?
Did anyone recently interview with Walmart for 2021 Campus: Data Scientist role?
Applied, haven't heard :(
do u need 20k ?
Dude anyone get the Twitter 7 business day email but no follow up
Many people would be grateful for a 60k offer...
The guy is probably just out of touch tbh
Just like how most college students have never heard of leetcode, most people doing software dev for a living probably don't know how high the salary ceiling is
I wouldn't overthink it
disney is hiring new grads for a couple of roles for their disney streaming services nyc office
Do you happen to know the position name? It would help with finding the right job to apply to.
Hell yeah, my dude
How rude
🤣
Twitter can suck my socks
Unless 👉👈 they end up coming through with a nice email 😚
In that case, ill suck their socks
I saw Associate iOS engineer and Associate PM, but I’m sure there’s others.
I don’t know who the recruiter is, I just saw the postings in the website.
also agree on the experience part at disney, i’m interning at movies anywhere and it’s the chillest team i’ve ever worked on.
Learn more about and apply for the Associate iOS Software Engineer job at DISNEY here.
what position?
anyone know what the cisco interview process is like? how many rounds?
can you apply to new grad positions while not actively enrolled? suppose you take a gap semester and during that time apply, while still having plans to finish your schooling next semester?
anyone taken twitter OA? how was it
no just the last
ok, and what about the first 2? What about your scores in OA1 and OA2?
uh i did well on the OAs and the first 2 were just LC med/hard
ok, so its going to be 3 rounds even with perfect scores on OAs
honestly no idea ¯_(ツ)_/¯
my guess its that and resume or maybe they manually look at ur answers to decide (or just roll a d20)
Lc hard?? They tripping tripping
haha i mean one was hard but well known so prob a med in reality
fuck man
is my career fucked now
for joining such a shitty company as a new grad
A
Im down tremendous bro id rather be in 1850s china getting executed by being cut into 1000 pieces
its a chinese man
I graduated 10 months ago
wait did this vv dude just say his career is ruined by joining amazon??
