[mystic mica]

Nothing new if you just check out Blind, at any given time there’s like several posts about pip

Absolutely cancer practices

[stone monolith]

Yeah 90% of Amazon posts are about pip

Or Jeff bezos being bald

[ocean venture]

this ^ it's easy when you have a ton of offers like a select few, but that's not the reality for a lot of us unfortunately 😦

i fully expect that if i got hired at amazon, i'd be there for max a year

if you go in understanding it could be shitty, then u can always keep the job hunt up and have other offers when it gets too much to bare

you're not stuck there in EVERY case (although it would stink if u had a h1b)

[naive rain]

When I applied last year, it was onsite interviews. Honestly it wasn’t super difficult. There was like a design stage (not system design) but more like you have this problem, how will you solve it. So you come up with type of inputs, outputs, etc. Other interviews were easy problems (array type of problems, etc) I was super unprepared and I think jt showed lol😬

[graceful hazel]

anyone recently gave Goldman Sachs OA

Please tell me what the pattern is ...

[raw belfry]

One easy LC other hard LC

Only 2 qs

[ocean venture]

thank you 😄

[pastel skiff]

did anyone hear back from Splunk?

got denied from better .com even though 100 on OA

[proud fog]

Same...

[stark forge]

well now I don't feel so bad now that I know their dumb.. that sucks though !

[main verge]

I guess they rank the 100% OA scores with time taken too maybe?

[past mantle]

I got 100/60/100 and got final

I have FAANG on my resume so I’m guessing they resume screen after OA

[raw belfry]

I got an email from better saying they will be in touch as there are delays. Does that mean a reject?

[mystic mica]

Every company resume screens after OA lol, getting a 100% on any OA means shit unless your resume is also stellar

[wooden tangle]

same

[mystic mica]

I learned that the hard way after doing codesignal last year

[wooden tangle]

i feel like some resume screen before as well

[mystic mica]

I mean I’m sure some do, I’m just explaining why a 100% on an OA can still lead to a reject

[wooden tangle]

but i also learned some companies screen after, after I passed Citadels OA and got rejected

[wooden tangle]

true

[native vale]

hey guys, does anyone have any good resources or at least a good list of things to study for an entry level java developer interview?
any past experiences or advice is appreciated as well

[pastel skiff]

OOP!

[ocean venture]

yep, definitely study your OOP

design patterns, coupling, cohesion, all that stuff

i'd also recommend reading Clean Architecture

[native vale]

ok thanks! I'm quite familiar with the main OOP concepts, they seem really easy to memorize and understand

my main problem was not being able to exactly explain how I implemented them in my projects, so I should've been prepared for that in my first interview/screening

[native vale]

I'm not familiar with these too much, however, so thanks for letting me know about them. If you don't mind me asking, do you know of any especially good resources for these or should I just look them up on youtube

[ocean venture]

I'd specifically look to see if maybe any university has free lectures for an object oriented design class?

Or professors on youtube etc

But yeah youtube and geeks for geeks is your best bet

[pastel skiff]

grokking the ood

[ocean venture]

Cohesion and coupling are some of the best concepts I've learned in my education thus far imo

Ood in general just makes your code so damn clean

[native vale]

and by ood do you just mean basic concepts like encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, etc..

abstract classes, interfaces

[ocean venture]

Yeah sure those are the basics, but i think it's worth while knowing about specific design patterns too

Like singletons

And know why and when they might be used

[native vale]

I see. Would you say it's expected of me to know multiple design patterns or pick one and really study it

[ocean venture]

That's just my opinion though. I don't think you'll be fully expected to know individual design patterns by your interviewer since they are years out of college, but it's a good way to flex that you really know Java and ood.

It's like one of those things you mention to an interviewer and gives you that extra edge over other candidates you know?

Which I think is worth

I'd say multiple design patterns

Because they're like little tools in your tool belt

[native vale]

I was so lucky to know how to explain MVC(although I have no experience implementing it) in my first interview, it was enough to pass the "technical" part of that interview

[ocean venture]

Yeah MVC is huge

You'll see mvc specifically mentioned in job apps

[native vale]

yeah I've seen them especially for C# and .NET positions

[ocean venture]

If you get the chance, having a project that implements mvc looks great

[native vale]

but thanks a lot on the recommendations I think I've found what I'm missing and what I need to study

yeah true

[ocean venture]

Any gui app with data or even a web app could technically be modeled mvc

You can get creative

I'll send you the book that we used in my OOD class

Just gotta remember it lol

[native vale]

thank you

http://bedford-computing.co.uk/learning/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Data-Structures-and-Algorithms-in-Java-6th-Edition.pdf

is it this, by chance

[ocean venture]

Think it might be

[worthy spear]

has anyone done the yelp django oa

[rocky moon]

anyone know the process for google rejections? Recruiter wants to schedule a call with me after an interview like 2 months ago. Are they gonna live reject me?

[main verge]

They call you whether it's a reject or offer pretty sure

[zealous tapir]

I had got a call from google regarding results after interview, but I had missed it. Got a rejection email couple of minutes later.

[dry walrus]

Is the Intuit technical coding challenge proctored?

[woeful dew]

No, it isn't

[rocky moon]

well shite

[slim lake]

yes

[trim marsh]

Anyone here knows the pure storage interview process?

[pastel skiff]

LC medium/hard and nope

[proven ingot]

First step is an 11 question OA. Two will be coding, the rest will be multiple choice testing a range of knowledge. After that... Idk cause I got the reject 😂

[sturdy mulch]

Man I hate code signal. I always have so much trouble with the last 2 and they are always some lengthy problem that takes so long to read

[rocky moon]

anyone heard of or interview with otter.ai?

[ornate charm]

I know after the OA there’s a tech screen. My friend got the question right (leetcode medium from the tagged list) but got rejected

[stone monolith]

Can I put that I got the COVID vaccine on my resume

"Can work in office because has vaccine"

[golden glade]

Anyone do the Walmart final recently? It seems kinda short to fit in behavioral and technical

[tranquil pebble]

What should I tell the interviewer when he asks me what problem did you solve with this particular project?

All my projects are sample web apps (e commerce stores for example) and they're there to show my proficiency with Spring, React, Redux etc.

[hallow wyvern]

I had a web dev internship this past summer and i tend to spin the problem by saying that I helped businesses grow by expanding their digital web presence through an e-commerce web app - even tho they are sample web apps make a story of why you built this project besides proof of concept eg) helping businesses go digital in order to adapt to effects of covid

[wanton hound]

Always solve 1,2,4 to increase chances of a better score go for 3 last

[visual lagoon]

It was 30 minutes behavioral and 30 technical for me.

[quick cargo]

I got an OA from a consulting company. Codility 70 mins for 3 tasks. Talked to a guy who applied to the same role last year, he said this is the first time they've done an OA. What should I expect?

[olive lily]

So, if it's ur first Codility - then just know that codility doesn't tell u if u fail the hidden cases

So, let's say u got a working solution - and u forgot about some edge cases - then u might pass the cases they give u - but in ur evaluation it would say something like 80% correct

Same goes for if u thought u had a solution that was fast enough but they wanted something faster lmaoooo

i would take the codility practice questions

https://app.codility.com/programmers/lessons/1-iterations/

get used to the platform - the last thing u want to do is be blinded this stupid platform

Also, unlike a hacker rank test - codility questions aren't purely LC type questions

Some times they will test debugging type question - e.g -this code is supposed to do this - but misses some cases
Change a maximum of 2 lines to get the code working

And, to mess with u sometimes - the maximum number of changes is less than the actual number of lines u need to change

[tranquil pebble]

That's a good advice. Thank you.

[olive lily]

So, u are thinking to urself - what can be the other mistake - as u see ur time slipping away
u search frantically - finally u decide - it's not worth stressing about the other line
And, then it turns out there was only one mistake in the code - yaaay i guess

alternatively, u could think - there is only one mistake - cause it said a MAXIMUM of two mistakes, so u move one - convinced u r right - but life can be shitty - u messed up because there were actually two mistakes O.O

Also, when they say they are not measuring performance it can sometimes be kind of a lie

So, what they mean is that for some tests - a program will detect the complexity of ur algorithm
e.g. - if it is O(n) or O(lg(n))

and, that's measuring performance -
But, even if u aren't directly being measured on "performance" - ur algorithm might still time out - which will make u lose points on "correctness"

[quick cargo]

Thanks for laying that out. Really appreciate it. I’ve practiced on the codility site just getting used to the UI. But I was pretty confused on the only 70 mins for 3 tasks. Guess the debugging makes the timing make more sense

[tranquil pebble]

Is it wise to discuss a school project as your 'favorite' project during the interview? Or it just shows other side projects have been shitty? 😅

[olive lily]

I think it's fine ur project can be ur favorite for so many reason: has a really cool UI, has a lot of features, let u explore technical concepts, most applicable and so on

that doesn't take away from ur other projects

[craggy garden]

As long as it's a in-depth, complex project, then I don't think it matters that much.

Like if you spent half the semester or the entire semester and you solved a problem, then it probably wouldn't matter.

[tranquil pebble]

Yeah, sure. Thanks @craggy garden @olive lily

[limber dome]

I definitely recommend it if its something nice that takes longer than a week to build! I demo'd one of my projects during a final interview round and my interviewer was super impressed.

[ember berry]

are all codesignal OAs proctored? I have one pending for Square, the one you get by default while applying

[mystic mica]

gca isn't

some company ones are

[ember berry]

it does look like a company one and not the gca that you can take anytime

[mystic mica]

then ya it's proctored

i mean wouldn't it tell u if it's proctored or not

[tranquil pebble]

Yeah, I understand. It's just that my other projects, although good, but are demo web apps. Clothing store and project management tool etc. So I haven't solved a problem per se. Just showing my proficiency.
This other one, although doesn't have a gui, but took quite a lot of work, a full semester's worth. So I just wanted to make sure I put my best foot forward.

[ember berry]

I really hate codesignal and how their problem statements doesn't even make sense sometimes

[limber dome]

as long as it shows some perceived level of difficulty or effort and not something you can copy off a youtube tutorial, you should be fine imo.

[tranquil pebble]

Sure. Thanks. :)

[mystic mica]

https://codesignal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/general-coding-assessment-framework.pdf

just read this lol

and use it to strategize how you do the next codesignal u get

[ember berry]

I have read it, 4 questions in 70 minutes is just too much lmao

last time I did it for Quora I had like 1 super easy and rest med-hard

[limber dome]

it do be like that sometimes

[ember berry]

yeah, the timer really fucks up with your mind

[mystic mica]

which is why you should just skip 3 imo

if it seems implementation heavy

3 is almost always implementation heavy but nothing hard, 4 is potentially short but requires some clever thinking most of the time

[ember berry]

to me it comes down to if you have done a similar problem to it before or not

like not the exact same problem but somewhat related

[mystic mica]

ehh

none of the codesignal problems i've seen were really close to LC problems

1 and 2 are supposed to be easy though

it's 3/4 that fucks people

3 is implementation heavy

4 is sometimes equivalent to an LC hard

[ember berry]

yeah but you know how some supposedly easy problems are not always easy and a minor oversight can consume a lot of time

gotta be sharp while taking the OA

anyways has anyone here interviewed with Article in Vancouver, Canada

[olive lily]

this has happened to me an embarrassing amount of times - I learned to read the questions and then try running through the example by hand if possible

[ember berry]

problem with me is I cant read for shit, like I can't focus while reading anything

[olive lily]

sometimes i found drawing it out helps or trying to turn what they said into English

[ember berry]

lol I take notes as I read

[olive lily]

a lot of time they have extra fluff - but notes def help me as well

especially if I am know the cases are timing out

[ember berry]

yeah thats a good advice

[olive lily]

I will usually go back and try to figure out if I overlooked shit lmaoo

Also, I try running a timer - because code signal is super consistent

I can kind of create a rough estimate about how long each problem "should" take

That helps me not over-complicate the shit out of a simple problem SMH

[graceful hazel]

anyone recently got VMWare interview?

[proven ingot]

Anyone know Cisco's process?

[zealous tapir]

Any Story behind 30 min Amazon is called meme round ?

[rocky moon]

because it basically means u have the job guaranteed as long as u are a normal human being that can speak

[kindred jetty]

what's the average salary for new grads in the bay area?

[wooden tangle]

usually 120k-130k from what Ive seen

Ive seen 115k in San Jose which is a slightly cheaper place to live I think

[kindred jetty]

I see

[wooden tangle]

the 180k thats including equity, signing bonus, yearly bonus, etc right?

cuz base for those places is still usually around 120-130 from what Ive seen

[dusky robin]

Yeah including everything

[wooden tangle]

Have any of you guys ever gotten salty reactions when you reject offers from small startups?

[solid laurel]

Hey, so my plan for school updated and it seems like i'll graduate in September, i'm guessing 2021 new grad positions are done mostly?

[stone monolith]

Never, is this story time??

[wooden tangle]

not really. Just got an offer from a startup and they were really pushy about it. I sent a rejection email trying to keep the door open cuz I really do think the idea they have is good, although executing it is tough, but just got ignored even tho I could see they opened the email

[stone monolith]

Oh shit you can see when people open emails???

yikes

I feel bad now

[stone monolith]

Yeah you're best not to respond like to exploding offers, 8/10 they're typically companies full of red flags

[stone monolith]

160-180 afaik

[wooden tangle]

yea the CEO was sus, kept on trying to sell me on the possibility of getting in early and making a lot. Maybe they might make it big, maybe not, but in terms of pure numbers its unlikely.

a lot of buzzwords thrown around

[stone monolith]

oh yeah

Sounds like a CEO tbh

I got a random call from some chad football player a year ago, asking if I wanted to be the CTO of an app

[wooden tangle]

lol fuck that

[stone monolith]

and I didn't know shit about making apps. I would get a 20% stake in the company and a meager salary

[wooden tangle]

"you do the tech, ill handle the business side bro"

[stone monolith]

Pretty much

Chad football player

I still have the pitch deck they gave me. I think the company went belly up though

Never launched

[kindred jetty]

Maybe if I get a job making this much, she'll text me back

[wooden tangle]

a lot of friends and people i know hit me up now and then like "hey bro i got a great app idea"

[stone monolith]

lol

[wooden tangle]

its never a good idea

if i ever do hear a good idea maybe ill just steal it, not like they could have contributed shit anyways

[wooden tangle]

she wont

[kindred jetty]

I know😩

[stone monolith]

why professors use turnitin and then flag me for 30% similarity when the answer was super prescriptive

fam like what

[stone monolith]

best move

assert dominance

harvard connection 2.0

[wooden tangle]

btw this startup is currently maybe doing a series A so they were legit, but it aint hard to get rich boomers to give you money if your pitching a tech idea

[stone monolith]

maybe doing a series A

[wooden tangle]

yea the CEO was like "yea we're finishing up, itll be public info soon" or something

i know they did seed since there are articles online about it

[kindred jetty]

Does anyone know how many technical rounds the pure storage interview process has?

[waxen sundial]

how hard is it to crack Stripe new grad if you aren’t a prior Stripe intern

[icy hare]

was it a startup in new york? sounds similar to someone ive talked to before

[stark forge]

ya'll gonna so disappointed if yall ever get your offer from FAANG 😭

[surreal thicket]

Tfw that 60k is stonks that you’ll never get cause you’ll never stay there long enough due to terrible culture

[mystic mica]

I think most people default to TC automatically lol

actual take home is far less ofc

a LOT less after oof ✨taxes✨

[stone monolith]

I got my offer in all cash lolol got em

not FAANG tho

So it's basically a sweatshop by blind standards

[wooden tangle]

nah, san fran

[wooden tangle]

a fact of life unfortunately......

[sturdy mulch]

is TC total compensation?

[stone monolith]

yes

I'm going to try to do mega backdoor Roth when I start working

[gritty tiger]

how are the questions in eBay's Codesignal OA?

[wooden tangle]

huh?

[wooden tangle]

not sure about the codesignal but I can tell u the final round was easy as fuck based on my friends experience

[west heart]

need some advice. im interviewing with a consulting firm this friday and i read over the job posting again and its really not what i want to do, but chances are if i get an offer im gonna be really conflicted if i dont take it since it’d be my first job offer for after graduation. the firm also has a job posting for a job that is much rather what i’d do but i’m afraid if i do poorly for this interview or get an offer and don’t take it, they’re not gonna consider me for the other position

it’s not the only interview i have, but it’s the one im furthest in at the moment

[dapper dock]

1 LC Med, 2 hards

[mystic mica]

doesn't codesignal have 4 questions

[uncut rose]

@west heart just take if you get it nobody says you have to stop applying after finding a job

You can just apply after until you find something you like.

[mystic mica]

depends on the company tbh, they all let you apply to multiple positions but usually you can only interview for one position at a time.

if i get an offer im gonna be really conflicted if i dont take it since it’d be my first job offer for after graduation.
person above me mentioned it too but, just keep interviewing/applying even if you get the offer lol

[dapper dock]

My bad, mistook it for the roblox OA lol

[west heart]

if i take the offer and find something else wouldnt that look bad?

[worthy cedar]

nah fukit

[mystic mica]

to who?

this is how people filter themselves out of a better offer/job. they think they have to stick with the first offer they get, because continuing to apply elsewhere will look bad, but like, why is it necessarily bad?

Do what's best for yourself, keep looking and if you find a better offer that you're happy with. Just renege the prior one (but if you found the prior one through your school's career center, they usually have policies about reneging that you should look into)

[mystic mica]

also you could maybe ask your recruiter/HR if it's possible to re-interview for position B if this interview with position A doesn't work out, doesn't hurt to ask

[west heart]

thats true ill prob ask if its a possibility

[ocean venture]

as long as you're kind in rejecting the offer, you can even leave that company up as a future possibility

companies are gonna understand that not every offer works out, you have every right to reject an offer

[sweet vigil]

How long does it take to get a decision after Amazon 30 min final interview?

[dry walrus]

Anybody interviewed with OneTrust for java backend role?

[severe jay]

As annoying as tech lead is the video he made about this topic a few days ago really hit the nail. A great idea means nothing without the execution and the capital. There’s billion dollar companies that didn’t innovate anything new they literally just cloned an existing product but executed well enough to make it big. If i’m handling the tech I might as well have the whole company and give you a 20% stake with a salary lol

[proven ingot]

Has anyone heard back from Auth0?

[wooden tangle]

not yet

[wooden tangle]

ill check it out

[proven ingot]

Cool. Feelin like a ghost but at least there's still hope lol

[wooden tangle]

yea, its been awhile for me. They look really cool, but i already accepted something so i wont go through

[proven ingot]

Yeah, seems like interesting work. Congrats though!

[rocky moon]

anyone taken epic systems skills assesment?

[tame shoal]

just finished the phone screen, recruiter told me that there will be 2 rounds of technical interviews, a 2 hr one and a 3 hr one

[wooden tangle]

who?

[kindred jetty]

Gotcha, thanks

[tame shoal]

no problem!

[tame raven]

Hi guys, for the three 45min interview for Amazon, do you get asked multiple behavioral questions in one interview?

[ocean venture]

has anyone been messaged by a recruiter for management at amazon b4?

[ocean venture]

nvm it's a trick lol

[ornate charm]

Does Microsoft do rejection calls?

[real walrus]

nope

[ornate charm]

Do they do offer calls? @real walrus

[spare violet]

When did you interview for Microsoft?

[ornate charm]

Last Friday

On-site

[spare violet]

I interviewed yesterday.

Onsite

[real walrus]

i havent heard they do calls in general, just email

[worthy spear]

Nope

[worthy spear]

"one of our recruiters will follow up with you right away"
This was like two weeks ago...should I ask for an update?

anyone do the Visa OA?

[pastel condor]

has anyone finished GS OA recently and heard back yet?

[undone abyss]

i did it recently have not heard back :/

I did mine last friday

[ocean venture]

i still need to complete mine lol

[pastel condor]

Same

[pastel condor]

It wasn’t that bad. It took me about 30 minutes to finish

[worthy spear]

anyone gave the ebay codesignal?

[wooden tangle]

thanks, i dont really keep up with the news or anything so I only ever hear about this stuff from friends

[ocean venture]

good to know thank you 🙂

[wind acorn]

sdjfhakjdfhnajhn

congrats

[ember berry]

i’d expect 2 questions on average

[novel river]

Hi all, did anybody hear back from Goldman Sachs after their automated oa?

[undone abyss]

not yet took oa on friday tho

[sturdy mulch]

From my experience, Goldman takes a week to do anything.

From OA to next step was about a week, then next thing was scheduled a week out, and repeat.

[warped lion]

Has anyone interviewed for seatgeek?

[near finch]

Hi y’all, I’m curious about what start dates look like for you December grads? I’ll be graduating Fall 2021

[main verge]

Anyone have experience with Akuna Capital phone interview? (The one right after the OA)

[green cipher]

By how many days did it take from them after your initial application?

[warped lion]

I applied on 2/7 and got an email on 2/19 to schedule a phone screen. Did the phone screen today and was told I’d get an OA for the next step

[foggy harness]

Hey, has anyone interviewed with Citibank ? I was curious about the "Super day" interview

[keen onyx]

Is Zillow hiring New Grads? Did anyone go through the process?

[dry walrus]

Has anyone interviewed with OneTrust for Java developer role?

[limpid lichen]

Looking into some insight about Bloomberg HR/Hiring Manager round

[ocean venture]

Someone in my graduating class got an offer from zillow so I think they are

[limber dome]

HR round mainly asked me questions about my education, work experiences, projects, what Ive been up to the past few months, p chill. Be prepared to answer basic HR questions like "tell me about a time when you did this ... " or "what is one thing you would change during your last internship". Manager round is a hit or miss, you either get system design or a resume round (very similar to HR). I got the resume round and it was mainly chatting about everything on my resume, work life at bloomberg, etc. If you have any cool projects, definitely take the opportunity to demo it bc its virtual onsite. I think thats what helped me get the offer. Overall, just be humble and show that your main goal is learning. Ask a lot of questions to show your interests in the company.

[topaz knoll]

Has anyone interviewed with Forward (goforward.com)?

[limpid lichen]

thank you, very helpful. I was specifically told in the email that there will not be technical. Do you think i still might expect sys design?

[weary ice]

Anyone here get an OA for Amazon SDE-1 role? (not new grad)

[grand tangle]

Me

[weary ice]

Did you attempt it already?

Was it similar to the new grad one? I did the new grad one earlier, and got rejected. Idk, if I'm expected to prepare harder

[limber dome]

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Its mainly luck whether you get sys design. Worst case, your interviewer is mean, then I would look over it briefly like know what vertical/horizontal scaling is, load balancers, data partitioning, etc. If you get it, just say you dont have experience in it and theyll prob have you just explain how you would code it and what database, etc, without actually writing the code.

[limpid lichen]

alright, thanks!

[rustic salmon]

Yep i did

[worthy spear]

You got any reply?

[rustic salmon]

Nope .. ntg .. when did u give ?

[worthy spear]

2 days back, what score range do they expect?

[lament dome]

Anyone with experience on the hackerrank test for bytedance?

Singapore new grad front end engineer

[chrome sage]

Anyone interviewed with Scholastic?

[ocean venture]

oh no

[autumn lynx]

🔥 🔥 🔥

[wind acorn]

that's like.. applying to colleges and in the "Why X?" you copy paste your "Why Y?" essay

[cunning forge]

anyone know how high microsoft will go for new grads?

[real walrus]

depends on competing offers and from which companies

[wind acorn]

@cunning forge quant?

[cunning forge]

Lol no

this not for me

[wind acorn]

or quant-shops as SWE?

ohohokok

$190k TC is already p high

[cunning forge]

I mean I saw Microsoft offers that were 120 base 160 stock/4 and 50 signing/2 years

so that’s 185 no relo

just curious if they’d go higher than that one

[wind acorn]

msft might negotiate if it's with other FAANGs but for companies that are "less prestigious" (yes it's a thing for comp teams) they're unlikely to negotiate

likely the only thing they can negotiate is stock iirc there's a spreadsheet somewhere for return offers

and people managed to negotiate on rockstar offers with competing offers but only stock/signing iirc

[cunning forge]

hm clearly they can negotiate base tho because 110 on some offers 120 on others

[wind acorn]

ah really? idk then

[worthy cedar]

is it masters vs bachelors difference?

[cunning forge]

def think some of the 120s are bachelors just might be l59 vs l60

[vagrant raft]

I've seen higher than that on Blind for what it's worth

[cunning forge]

do share

having a hard time finding solid numbers

[vagrant raft]

110k base, 200k/4 stock, 120k sign on (70k first year, 50k second year) @cunning forge

This is blind though so no idea if it's real

[cunning forge]

that sign on 😳

[vagrant raft]

The person claimed to have a FB return offer

[cunning forge]

that is super weird tho lol

but yeah i could see that

bc fb return is 243/158 non rockstar

and this would be 230/210/160

[vagrant raft]

[Blind] Check out this post! Facebook new grad (return intern) vs Microsoft (Tech Industry)
https://us.teamblind.com/s/jKVKN4Qd

[cunning forge]

that is a weird fb offer but it was 2019 so maybe things were diff

[worthy cedar]

Wow! $200k stock. I’m a L65 and I don’t even have close to $200k in invested stock.
wat is this

[cunning forge]

looks like an old rockstar offer ig

[worthy cedar]

msft why

[cunning forge]

just move companies at that point 😂

[real walrus]

You can check the MSFT discord spreadsheet, but for L59 they dont budge on salary

they rarely move past $120k on stock

they are flexible with increasing the start bonus to 50k though

[cunning forge]

oh where’s the sheet at

[placid marlin]

you can negotiate with MS if you have another FAANG offer forsure. I did this and they increased my compensation.

[digital python]

Anyone applied to Oracle Class of - Cloud engineer?

[crisp glacier]

[west heart]

oof i got my first amazon OA request

[limpid steppe]

even I did

[azure gull]

Is the GitHub not posting new jobs anymore?

Is there an up to date list anywhere?

does anyone know if the first amazon OA is leetcode?

Anyone else got mail from OCI recruiter for new grad?

[woeful dew]

I have a python related doubt if someone can help me

What's the difference b/w

matrix = [[0] * len(A)]*len(B) and matrix = [[0] * len (A) for _ in range(len(B))]

[last linden]

same

[limber dome]

^

when you multiply a list, you are not creating a new list

just multiple reference

[[0]*2] = [[0], [0]], its like saying

lst[1] = lst[0]

[woeful dew]

Riiight, that's why my matrix was updating incorrectly

Yeah that makes sense

Thanks a lot guys

How do you get an interview at a top company? None of my applications are reviewed. And I have no one to get referrals from either lol

[steep oriole]

I got a referral from someone I met at a career fair / tech conference

[sick hazel]

I've gotten it reviewed by like 10 seniors

[steep oriole]

I've never passed a resume screen at any big tech companies... Lol

[sick hazel]

thanks a lot!

where do people buy them?

It's better to try blind first I guess .. I have like 90 solved problems on leetcode

[sick hazel]

Me neither lol ... I had 1 internship through career fair

[quasi narwhal]

try connecting with people (from your university or not) on LinkedIn working at that company and asking them for a referral.

[ember berry]

you got the offer?

[west heart]

amazon's oa request was the first big company that actually reached out to me after applying

[storm crane]

OCI or for Class of cloud engineer?

[slim lake]

Yes

[slim lake]

Is that not the same

[storm crane]

I msgd her on linkedin for ages since the last fall and she replies with a mail. WOW

[still marsh]

Even I got email from same person. So it's automatic lol.

[hallow wyvern]

how do yall handle rejections esp final rounds i just want it to be over

[steep oriole]

Tbh I assumed I was rejected the moment I finished any interview so that I'd just get up and start applying / networking more. Plus it made handling the actual rejections easier 😂

[hallow wyvern]

haha i feel that its like post-interview rage where i solve leetcode problems or rage apply to companies

[sturdy mulch]

Anyone heard of network software? Got offered a position at Goldman on that team. The other teams I interviewed with passed on me and this guy picked me out of the reject pile and offered me a spot. Idk if it sounds super interesting though.

[rocky nacelle]

Hey can you guys tell me what are the companies that are actively hiring rn

Ill be graduating in may and i still dont have an offer

Got rejects from bloomberg and amazon

And those are the only interviews i had

[dapper cedar]

did you end up interviewing for the orbital program

[woven quartz]

Wym network software that's pretty broad

[sturdy mulch]

That’s what I’m saying, sounds super broad. Don’t know much about just wondering if anyone has heard of it.

[manic urchin]

Got LC hard for Amazon final

I solved it

But it took up the entire hour and I was super lost in the beginning and had more than a few hints for sure

[manic urchin]

Rejected for sure. From under review to application submitted. I heard that it's just a click of a button from the interviewers end and you're taken out of the running and your portal status will revert to application submitted.

Gg back to square 1

[ember berry]

does it have a date or anything?

[tame raven]

It said today at 1pm (2min ago), just changed to under review

[ember berry]

okay, how was the interview?

[tame raven]

so does under review mean what it actually means, or is it a bad sign lol

[ember berry]

no, I think under review is accurate as of now

[tame raven]

I's say I did relatively well on the behavioral as two of my interviewers said my experiences were interesting

but coding i struggled real hard lol

[ember berry]

how were the Problems?

[ornate charm]

Has anyone reneged on a company in which they were pretty close to their recruiter? How do u go about it?

[lunar creek]

I had a senior who reneged Bloomberg for Google after he negotiated extensively with Bloomberg. I think he just emailed her explaining the scenario. pretty sure no matter what you say they will be annoyed but are also probably used to it.

[ornate charm]

I see thanks dude.

FYI

[flint barn]

Damn just saw the posting, Google will not sponsor for new grad position.

[stark otter]

they wont? damn

[woeful dew]

Yeah, that too

Do you think it's still a good idea to apply or just wait>

[lunar creek]

folks who had microsoft tech screen? where you asked only one question? I was asked a bunch of question on react due to resume and one coding question. did anyone have something different?

[tiny linden]

When would posting for new grads then open?

[tulip hill]

i think they might already be open

or about to open up

but i'm a sophomore lol.... and this is just a rough estimation

[tired bay]

Peak season for 2022 start will be July-September for applying

[tulip hill]

also for the new grads....

how bad is the job market rn

[tired bay]

It’s weaker but not awful it’s not that bad

[tulip hill]

damn.... well i hope everyone here finds something good

and hopefully it'll fully recover for new grads in 3 years

when i graduate

I don’t think I saw their position earlier this season

[rancid gull]

pretty sure they just posted today like google

[vestal herald]

Ohhh google posted new grad for 2021?! Or 2022?

[rancid gull]

it's like 10 messages up in this channel

[vestal herald]

Sheesh my bad 😅

Didn’t see haha

[azure gull]

We really need an updated list of new grad postings

[proper wolf]

The google new grad posting doesnt indicate a graduation date. I hope 2020 grads are also considered

[mystic mica]

generally you can still apply to new grad positions up until about a year after graduation

[proper wolf]

Thats nice. Im a may 2020 grad so I guess I only have 3 months left to get a new grad position. Stressed af

[mystic mica]

besides G I think Bloomberg and Amazon are still hiring (if you haven't applied already)

[proper wolf]

I did apply to amazon but I was too late like a few weeks ago. I checked the website and it said im no longer under consideration

[worthy spear]

I thought No longer under consideration meant rejected

I got the same

[ocean venture]

It does yeah

Think I've still got an amazon app open

But one was all the way back in November :(

Applying for google even tho u know you ain't even gonna get an OA

[worthy spear]

I just appllied two days ago

and got OA to take within 5 days

[ocean venture]

Could you share the app? Would greatly appreciate :)

Only OA I've gotten so far is with GS

I can google if not no worries

[worthy spear]

What do you mean by app>

[ocean venture]

Job posting*

Or are they hiring for new grads?

[worthy spear]

cool. I'd dm you.

[proper wolf]

Are they not gonna send it to everybody?

[ocean venture]

They might :P

[sick hazel]

Can someone refer me to HRT?

[ocean venture]

Thankful I'm taking dynamic programming algorithms my last quarter, I'm sure google asking lc hard all day

[sick hazel]

someone from linkedin might refer you

[rancid gull]

Fairly sure it's mostly for 2021 grads since one of the preferred qualifications is 2021 start

No such thing as a dumb question 😌

[worthy spear]

Hey, I completed all of my OAs for a Amazon role today (started yesterday). How many days it will take to get an interview if they find potential in me? I did well on all of OAs. Passed all test cases, debugging questions.

[ember berry]

you should get one in couple of days if not sooner

[worthy spear]

anyone do twilio OA?

[manic urchin]

Fam help me out with a list of companies that are still actively recruiting. Been out of the loop due to the potential promise of an offer which turned awry throw some healthy listings my way pls

[noble sierra]

Hey if someone shared you the list can you send me those to my way too? Thanks :)

[daring bough]

google new grad just opened recently

https://careers.google.com/jobs/results/129157118633616070/

[noble sierra]

But I am an international student :( . Looks like google for this new grad is not sponsoring

[digital carbon]

Color me surprised

Just last month I was thinking it'll never open this year lmao

[noble sierra]

Please let me know if someone replied to your question

[noble sierra]

Hey did you applied for the role or recruiter directly sent you a message?

[slim lake]

I got a referral

[noble sierra]

Curious is there a referral thing for OCI roles

[slim lake]

Oh yeah wait he couldn't do it at the time

[noble sierra]

For new grad ?? Because I tried to a referral from one person for referral he cannot see OCI roles for referral on his side

[slim lake]

Yeah. I think he sent an internal referral through some mailing list instead

Don't know if that made any difference

[noble sierra]

Do you think it is still a good idea to apply if they don't do sponsorship for international students ??

[jovial hedge]

Anyone been through the hiring process with Siemens?

[timber pike]

What’s googles refresh rate for reapplying? Is it 6 months?

[dapper comet]

Anyone applied for twilio new grad but got intern OA?😂

[west heart]

rip amazon oa2, got one i knew how to do easily and one where i was completely clueless

[mystic mica]

it's rng u still might get an interview

people get full scores and get rejected but others get interviews without good scores

it's rng

[west heart]

okay that makes me feel better

thank u

[digital python]

[ocean venture]

I thought it was once every like..3 months? Can't remember

I applied back in November and was able to apply for the new grad position.

[gentle zodiac]

is bloomberg reapply after 6 months from application or rejection

[tame latch]

asking for a friend, but does apple start at ICT3 or ICT2 for new grads?

Just to know which level to look at for levels.fyi

[delicate tulip]

Google just opened their ng position

without offering any immigration sponsorship

it's strange that even Google can't sponsor nowadays

[mystic mica]

for 99% of new grads it's gonna be whatever the lowest level is

so ICT2 i believe

[ocean venture]

does ebay just give insta OA? i already got a technical challenge and i applied like

30 minutes ago lol

[digital carbon]

Google? Why wouldn't they sponsor?

[noble sierra]

They are explicitly saying it here

[digital carbon]

Oh I see, I thought they generally sponsor. In that case it's not worth applying.

[azure gull]

Any updated lists of new grad postings?

[digital carbon]

Probably from rejection

[slim lake]

Those were green cards, not for new grad positions.

This is just one role though, Google still sponsors for other roles

[worthy spear]

I guess it's worth applying if you're on F1 visa

and will have opt

[slim lake]

Yeah it's phrased weirdly. Seems like if you're in the country rn you can apply

Or maybe not. Confusing. I'm eligible for full-time work authorization, but i will also need sponsorship

Applied anyway

[formal ivy]

Any new postings besides Google and zoom for new grad ?

Snap seems to have 9 month apprenticeship for 2021 grads

not sure how directly that relates with a full time position tho

[noble sierra]

What do you mean by reapply by rejection ?

[digital carbon]

? As in the 6 month cooldown starts from when someone got rejected rather than from when they applied

[noble sierra]

I see

[ocean venture]

"Minimum qualifications: little to no relevant internship experience"
..wat?

i'm now questioning whether to apply?

[stark otter]

its not meant for people with work ex

🤷

[ocean venture]

interesting

[stark otter]

i would apply for sde1 but they rejected me for new grad

so sde1 will mostly be reject too

[ocean venture]

not sure how to qualify how limited they mean

[fiery otter]

What’s a good subject line

To a recruiter ur emailing

For the first time

[real walrus]

I don’t think it’s too hard for CSmajors to get any SWE job, but obviously the big tech ones are

[latent cipher]

i feel like ppl either have little to no trouble or they’re sending tons of applications w no luck

not much middle ground

[arctic drift]

Tbf you have trouble until you have none

If that makes sense

Like as soon as you land one offer

Your trouble is over basically

[latent cipher]

yeah having an offer makes it sm easier to expedite elsewhere

[arctic drift]

Which is why it can seem like there’s not much middle ground

When that /is/ a middle ground imo

[latent cipher]

but honestly ive gotten interviews by cold emailing recruiters after applying even without an offer

maybe that’s anomalous idk ive also gotten rejected that way

[granite flax]

not to mention once you get that first offer it's an extremely liberating feeling where you sort of forget how down in the dumps you were and grinding through app processes for 200 other companies

like i consider myself very calloused/battle hardened to getting rejections but just like farmer bm board says, when the troubles end it feels like the heavens open up and alan turing himself blesses you

indeed vs capital one for new grad?

[tired bay]

Probs indeed purer tech and likely better pay

[frosty forum]

i could see the tech part. but the pay is the same for the locations im looking at

[tired bay]

Then more of a tech decision and how u can progress inside the company

[worthy cedar]

comp? im not returning to c1 for new grad so i might be able to give some insight

[frosty forum]

95K base w/ 10k or 15k signing bonus (c1 and indeed respectively)

[worthy cedar]

indeed loc?

[frosty forum]

Austin

[worthy cedar]

did u get matched to richmond plano or mclean for c1

[frosty forum]

Plano

Since they’re so similar I’m kind of looking at this career wise, like what would look better on a resume

[worthy cedar]

i think i'd take indeed but if ur having to renege c1 for indeed it's hard to say

i just accept if i reneging i'm blacklisted from the company for eternity and make decisions revolving around that

like if u ever want to work there down the line then maybe it isn't worth a renege

my summer was... an okay experience? their pipeline is very accommodating but i got a shit manager that made me very turned off by the whole experience

they have an established new grad (tdp) program so you'll have a good structure and system

[frosty forum]

Damn lol, I probably wouldn’t want to work at C1 down the line. It seems like a good place to get started at. This is all theoretical btw. Like I already accepted an offer at C1 and I bombed the indeed interview. I was suppose to intern with indeed last year but they rescinded my offer. So I’m just wondering at this point idk

[worthy cedar]

if they rescinded ur offer i'd say they should fk off

go with the company that hasn't already burnt you once

[frosty forum]

Yeahhh

My recruiter really hyped me up for new grad but that hit the fan

[worthy cedar]

also i really enjoyed the "networking" events, interns played some games and there were a lot of "meet/get to know" events and u didn't have to go if u were tired or didn't want to but they were always available

[frosty forum]

That’s cool, I’m noticing a lot of events already with February cohort. Did you do TIP virtually last summer?

Anyone who requires sponsorship tried applying to that google university grad role just to check?

[rancid gull]

[mental frigate]

What could be wrong?

[rancid gull]

I could be misremembering

[candid torrent]

Do you guys always write a CV when applying?

[olive lily]

If they have an option? sometimes - I just reuse old cover-letter and change a few things - if there seem like there is too much to change I just leave it blank
Only time I will rewrite a cover letter from scratch or modify it a shit ton - is if it is required or I really want to work at the company

Is there still a chance that ill get an offer?

[dapper vale]

Yes

Otherwise they wouldn't take you to hc

[main verge]

Would it be a very small chance? or a decent chance

[dapper vale]

Honestly depends on HC but keep your head up you got this

[main verge]

Thanks for the encouragement

[dapper dock]

does anyone know the TC for apple new grad?

[paper hinge]

Is it a bad idea to mention that u still need to wait for another company to get back with an official time and date about the final interview

They confirmed but they havent responded yet after giving availability

and another company now wants my availability but i need to hold off on that

[exotic remnant]

I will be graduating in 2022 and was wondering how different is the interview process for entry level SWE compared to the internship process. Are the coding assessments more difficult?

[frosty forum]

it's the same for the most part

maybe some OOP design questions

[warm olive]

And some systems

Def more systems and db

[paper hinge]

Ok thanks for the info

Wait you didnt answer

Oh u answer 2022

[exotic remnant]

OOP design questions make sense to me and I have been learning about them as I know the concepts but I have no idea how to prepare for system design questions. My college still doesn't teach me those concepts. Does anyone know where to get started?

try designing different potential applications from scratch, and then analyze how you could improve the design without abstracting too much

Anybody know what Better.com is like as a company? They reached out to me for a final round interview but I already have an offer so I’m debating whether to go through with them

[ornate charm]

[tight ruin]

do the final round and find out from them?

rather, see how they present themselves and see if that's consistent at least with what you're looking for. Might be a biased indicator, but still an indicator

I thought it was weird that Microsoft just sent a general email for a phone screen. Did not tell me if it was PM or swe position? But hey at least I interviewed today and found out it was for PM haha

No recruiter info so I couldn't ask.

Oracle tomorrow it says final interview. I've already been rejected from them twice, so if anyone has any tips on nailing this last one. Please message me.
