found it, thanks
Theres the link in case anyone needs it
anyone done byteboard? if you had a pick between byteboard and codesignal, which would you do?
I have for internships
Basically just email them saying personal circumstances prevent me from joining the company and I apologize for any inconvenience caused
Yeah I’ve been having the same issue with my intern application
Their portals are just disconnected like that lol
Ye
What are the best resources for system design?
Thanks
Also how long does Goldman normally take to get back after coderpad round
Has anyone applied to capgemini? Know if its a good company?
need some help on proportional sizing for base salary:signing bonus
would 75k base, 10k bonus, and 80k base, no bonus be "equivalent"? I know giving signing bonus is easier than bumping base salary but I'm just not sure by how much
feel free to ping
id generally say no, its not equivalent
its much harder from HR's perspective to increase base salary over signing bonuses because they have different budgets for each iirc
it also depends on the company
I passed the hiring committee 
love that for you
thank you haha
I told her I need the offer letter by friday max but my new job starts the monday after 
damn if you get an offer have you given any more thought to what you're gonna do
lmao
Have you already matched a team?
not yet. I said that needs to be done by next week.
My start date is June 28 at Rakuten.
I told them I need offer by June 25
Ahh I see. congrats! I heard that I passed HC this monday and I filled out the TM form on the same day but I have not heard back from my recruiter. (Maybe I was a bit too picky when I filled out the form lol)
congrats to you too!!!!
wow everyone in this channel gettin so many W's lately
I also have my AWS offer deadline next week but my recruiter told me it takes on avg 4 weeks to match XD
^ damn goals lol
I'm looking at it now. It says select 3 areas but I have the option to select more. Maybe I should select a couple more just in case?
i hope so!!! can't blow it with these companies i would love a job i'm excited about and proud of and be able to sign off fall recruiting season early lol 
probably can't hurt go for it
Anyone know how gruesome Tesla onsites are
I selected 4.
My main concern with joining google is that people might start to have the mistaken assumption that I'm smart.
well your strong referral thought u were worth it! 😄
don’t sell yourself short you passed a series of really hard interviews so you probably are!
holy thats a long time
Is anyone else interviewing for capgemini?
Is it worth the experience, lmfao
It's a consulting firm and they got this program where they're hiring like 70 people
65k salary starting
pretty ez interview
@junior flare Can you share the job posting please ?
is anyone interviewing with samsung semiconductors?
What does that stand for?

ah yeah I heard about that, pay is nice but apparently its way too niche
yea i just went thru their tech interview
and they asked heavily
on OOD process
but notmuch on coding
and i was like hmmm
and then they told me
but yea pay pretty good
god i heard about this 🤮
i work there ama
Ask me anything
Fuck
Do i go for a seed startup or a unicorn
Need ur advice bois 
Both similar offers
I will choose the one that pays me more lol
Maybe you can check when the unicorn will go public
Yeah i asked and recruiter said it's within this year
Then why don't you go
So that would mean i wont be able to sell my stock until after its public
after they go public, you will be rich
Lol not necessarily
One year is not long
Coinbase is a good example
how big is the seed startup
If you are sure they will do it
No idea they have under 50 employees
Dont know in terms of users or anything like that
you can look up how much funding they have
On what site
personally i would choose the unicorn cause working through an IPO is a rare and fun event
but if you really believe in the seed startups product and the team is impressive go for it
Hmm yeah good points
thanks
can someone advice me following up with the recruiter?
on the day of my onsite interview the recruiter said that she would get back to me in 3 business days. She asked me to follow up if she doesnt get back to me. She didn't get back to me so I followed up. She said that the hiring manager hasnt dropped the feedback and she would advice as soon as she hears back from the hiring manager. It been 3 weeks since my onsite and no response. Shall i take the L and move on? or is it fine to follow up again? I kind of want some feedback
also i saw the company re post the same role
in a good way?
do you get team matched prior to getting offer at amazon
or do you get the offer first and then they find you a team
for new grad
this, you just get hired as New Grad SDE and then get org and team assignment later
Hired as in signed offer or by the time you get the written offer, you are already assigned to an org?
oh my b... like you receive (and accept) the written offer just as "New Grad SDE" first
and then thru the next few weeks/months before your start date, they assign you an org/team
ex: i accepted my sde offer in march. Chose August start date, Didn't figure out my org till last week and still dont know my team
Gotcha.. I hope that's the case. When I received written offer, I asked the recruiter if they knew my team and they just said "Security" and would not provide anymore details which I'm not too stoked about.
Hope I get a chance to switch or something b4 I start...
did you accept already? or just sitting on the offer
Sitting on offer. I'm in the team match phase for Google but my deadline is coming up fast and they're not willing to extend it 😬
dang, good luck with that! if you do end up accepting amzn, theres an Amazon New Grad discord server you could join and get some questions answered there and stuff
best thing i ever heard from leetcode
lmao which q
i see what about multiple locations ? do you atleast get an offer for a specific office
I got an offer for a specific office (it wasn't in the offer letter itself, but in the email that came with the letter)
^same-ish. Not in offer letter but location should be updated in the Amazonuniversity.jobs portal when you get offer. And then they send you emails later confirming city assignment
I got a offer from Codeday Labs. Is it worth it?
How much is the $?
Accept if you get better offer renege
@oblique bolt should help you with that
Paging resident heartless bastard
guys, I noticed the problems I get when I do in the leetcode-bot channel are not in the list of problems of that company
It's an unpaid internship tho lol
that you can see when you have leetcode premium
is there a reason for that? like does the bot get the problems from there or from somewhere else
DON'T
You're enabling a horrible system
Yep say no
I feel you tho
It's from a nonprofit tho
Even for a nonprofit I'd still say your work is worth money
My man has standards respect
You can literally quite easily find some paid or volunteer dev stuff at campus
School club or something
But it is late into the season
And if u doing it for experience
Then do it
Cuz at this point
It is hard to find something
I mean I'm kinda aimless rn in terms of job prospects. I could use the experience to put it in resume
It's just 6 weeks tho
It's up to u think of it as a
What year?
New Grad
U graduated?
Yup
Applications should be opening up here soon
Anonymized if you'd like
If ur not that desperate
I'm gonna be taking a page of heartless reneging bastard's chad 500iq "I don't give two fucks" attitude and renege if I get better
@oblique bolt inspiration 😈 😈 😈 🙏 🙏 🪅
Posted it on resume a while ago
Ended my volunteer work as of may 21
Also I got until Oct, so I am on a time limit rn
@unreal dock
@dapper dock format is really good
Nice LaTeX bonus
Remove professional affiliation and add that under work experience
Tbh you can rename work esp to relevant exp
Maybe add one big full stack project?
I'd say remove OPT auth from resume although I'm not sure how it works down south stateside maybe @vague oyster can help
Oh and how many applications have you sent?
what's up
i've one an unpaid internship before @dapper dock
Oh remove that work auth 100 percent
@dapper dock expect to send 600 or more literally spam apply fucking everywhere
Grind
only good side to it is, experience can be good sometimes
but i will never do it again because i know my worth
and my worth = money
so is yours
Beggars can't be choosers but beggars can be spammy 😈
150+ (rookie numbers ik). I could send it to anywhere but I'm an International student so I dont gotta a lot of options
lie about sponsorship get and pass interviews then drop the bomb
Which country if I may ask? Sometimes it's really easy for certain countries
You have nothing to lose anyway
They can't pin your for a "mistake while selecting options"
I heard that certain companies would take back the offer if I lie about the sponsorship
And I ain't passing interviews for big companies like Amazon, Tiktok etc., cause I didn't start leetcoding until now.
I mean that's the balance you gotta take
Wdym? I'm an International student in the US ?
Research the company see if the sponsor
Yeah but which country? If you're Canadian or mexican it's really really really really easy if you're EU/UK it's easy if you're AU/NZ it's not hard and so and so forth
Like the bottom of the pile, not the bottom of getting a GC tho.
Making a statistically decent guess - India? China?
Feels
👀
Born mid east perhaps 👀
Listen dude just spam apply
Some companies do sponsor I don't know shit about American sponsorship process but there's a lot of peeps here who got success even being international
Spam spam spam
24/7
Gonna take you a couple months for sure idk if you can sustain that
LI filter by date posted to new
Then spam those apps
Then plain ol' Google
Then you should have a list of companies
You can find an excel sheet of all the tech companies/F500
Spam that

I'm thinking 6 weeks of gaining experience working on open source projects would help plus there's mentoring and TA's, or so I've heard
Is it mlh?
hi everyone, just wanted to get some advice! I'm going into another round of interviews, but I was told this one would focus more on coding algorithms. Which algorithms do you think are the most worthwhile to review? I have some ideas, but would appreciate second opinions:)
Literally
ALL
Of them
@celest parrot nice status message tho lmao
do some companies ghost even after the final interview?

Bro I'm sad as fuck
Hi, I applied for the Amazon AWS position now, as well as a few other positions last year. I received the email with the test link today, without the initial debugging round. Has anyone else received a similar email?
It's the OA
It's not OA1 though
Like they seem to have just gone straight to OA 2 or a completely separate OA lol
Yeah .... I think they have sent mail for the experienced position
Your resume was so good they moved you straight to regular SDE damn
Amazon been known to do stuff like that sometimes though
They even contact existing Amazon employees to interview lol
I applied for two positions, one as an AWS Grad and the other as an SDE Grad. Now, if I go to the job board. I see that the AWS grad role is no longer being considered, while the SDE grad role is. I applied for the SDE grad position in August of last year.
They had already sent the test and rejection for the SDE grad position. Everything is confusing 😂
Amazon is whack like that lmao
amazon jobs is on drugs most of the time
lol too high from all the bananas 
I got the regular SDE too
So if u get interviews u will get 4x rounds instead of 3x (or 1x)
Thanks it was weeks ago though lol
@worthy spear what about interns soon to graduate?
i'm not sure tbh i have some personal unknown variables that might affect when i go to school
i wanna say dec 2022?
if nothing unexpected happens
although i'd love to intern with data:woof: summer if possible
or even winter
rubrick just posted
How do you guys feel about design interviews?
They scare me much more than ds&a, cause it feels like having to absorb and memorize a bunch of information on things that I've almost never worked with
I feel if you directly do grokking it'll seem much more difficult than it actually is
Assuming you're a new grad most of the design interviews don't expect a lot. It's more about making reasonable choices and being able to communicate/justify your choices.
It'll be a lot more easier if you first just get familiar with the basics. Get comfortable with the fundamentals. You don't even need to memorize it
Once you do that, go through the case studies and everything will just make sense to you
Has anyone interviewed with Lucid?
anyone started applying to FT graduating december?
Hi guys so a staffaing agency has picked up my resume from linkedin is sendimg it out to markeing firms

@worthy spear I am interested can I dm you ?

Is #2021_grad_process deleted?
probably
Shouldn’t that go in the 2022 grad channel?




What kinda questions should I prepare for a google team match call?
Has anyone participated in such a call yet?



I asked about team culture, oncall, tech stack, levels
How many teams did you talk with, and how many did you match with?
Should it be taken as seriously as an interview?
I just talked to one and matched with them. They were close to my internship team so I had a decent idea
Yes you should imo. Do u have an offer regardless or you need to match first?
well I passed the HC and it's the team matching stage now so I guess not
that is I need to match to get an offer
i have calls with 2 teams on monday
Oh ok then ya it does matter a ton obviously
yeah I'm just not sure how rigorous it is going to be
I mean from my experience both for internship and for ft it’s really a fit match
It’s not meant to be technical
Just tell them what you like and ask them what they do and see if there’s enough crossover. Obviously helps to do a lil bit of research prior
ok then what exactly can I prepare for other than enthusiasm? I have calls with 2 cloud teams and I have done a couple cloud projects so I can say some stuff there
yeah all I know is that the teams are "google cloud compute" and "google cloud applications" not much to go on other than generic cloud stuff
Oh I see yeah that if they’re generic names then let them lead the way and stay generic also
My internship and ft were both cloud infra
So I was talking about reliability and wanting to know how about how to scale
Obviously keep in mind you’re not just trying to lie to get a job (and a bad fit). You should also try to find a team that excites you. Cloud isn’t gonna expect you to have done cloud before
cool. yeah thanks, this is helpful
Yeah no worries. If I could go back this would definitely be my approach
Has anyone here worked at Charles River development?
Nope. Anyone get invited to an on-site for the Microsoft ATL hiring event?

Hi,
I gave my Amazon OA2 today, of the 2 questions I got one executed and another one one test case failed. Do I still have chances of getting single 30 mins round
It depends on the third round too.
Okay
Any suggestions and tips for OA3?
Thank you
Did anyone got amazon 30 mins interview recently within the last week?
i had the interview on Tuesday
anyone do google behavioral? how long should our answers be?
Going into final negotiations tomorrow, thinking of counter offering two options
75k base + 20k signing
85k base
Do these make sense as options? Is one way better than the other (employer's perspective)? Which one? Why?
Feel free to ping as always
A signing bonus only has to be payed once so maybe that's better for them but maybe not for you. You should know, in case you didn't, that bonuses get taxed at a much higher rate than regular income
TIL lol
that seems like a fuckin scam
fuck the gooberment
Lol 30k sign on bonus turned into 18k after taxes
Robbery
thats why i commit ✨ tax evasion ✨
fucking highway robbery man what the fuck lmao
taxation is theft
taxation is theft
i just don’t get why bonuses are taxed at a higher rate
that makes literally no sense
it’s part of your income
why should it be taxed more
this line hits differently now that people know my man Bezos wasn't paying taxes lmao
it’s not taxes higher I think
you get part of it back from tax return i think, because it is a one time payment, the withhold percentage is higher
on that one pay check you have say 30K, so they think your tc is like 30K*26 and deduct tax based on that
but after all your tax rate is determined by the number on your w-2
Lol I hope so
But yea I think you guys are right about getting some of it back from tax returns
oh? is this particular to the U.S? why is that?

What kinds of technology does Rubrik use?
I can solve a rubik's cube in under 20 seconds, is that enough for an interview?
issa joke
could i ask you guys where did you guys looking for job postings? is it just linkedlin?
besides this server obviously
I just spam applied from a GitHub list
never thought about that, i though about just going on crunchbase and look up a list of every comapny on there but realized i'd have to pay
thanks tho, good idea
Yes. They ask heavy ML theory depending on your subfield, and also might expect you to know how to deal with big data/cloud or parallel processing stuff. Again depending on the role
Pm me if you want
amazon jobs portal still says under consideration but location is blank now
is that the same as moved to new location ?
this posting only had one location
Hello guys, i had a phone call with a recruiter on friday evening and she said she will be sending me the prep material for the first phone screen, I haven't got any until now, i emailed her already on friday night and no reply to that either, any advice from you guys?
You can try emailing them again, Friday was a federal holiday that some companies observed so the recruiter may have just missed your message
I'll try emailing her again, but she called me on friday evening itself to know my background and also asked me my availability to schedule phone screen
Ah
no didn't call her yet, should i try calling her tomorrow or dayafter if she doesn't reply to my email which I'm thinking to send now
ahh dont want to be ghosted again by a faang company
she told me I can take my time and give her my availability after she sends me the prep material and she hasn't sent it to me until now
Has anyone done the Pure Storage OA?
maybe but she should be sending the prep material right anyway i'll wait for her reply just dropped an email now

Did this weird thing happen with anyone else also?? I bombed amazon sde interview (I assume it blocks me for next 6 motnhs to be eligible for any position). And there is an New grad OA I got!!!!!
i think it might be a cooldown on specific lvls so sde1 might be different from new grad (and thanks for this bc it makes me think i needa apply lmao)

for 2022 tho
Did anyone receive google OA for Seattle/Kirkland?
+1 also for raleigh, NC?
I did today, if anyone knows what questions they are asking, it would be great help 🙏
After the OAs, an application status that has changed from "Under Consideration" to "Application Submitted" means an L right?
Not necessarily
What company?
Amazon (didn't mention this earlier...my bad)
Well last season mine went to no longer under consideration before a reject so I think you are still in the running
Intern or FT?
FT (AWS - new grad)
should be still in the running then
has anyone interviewed with SAP for the Next Talent developer position?
Any amazon 30min interviews today?
Or any rejects after waiting for a week to update the result?
mine's under consideration for more than 3 weeks now. no assessment yet 
Did you check spam?
Mine as well....applied on 12th May.....
nothing there

Does anyone have any opinions/insight on whether $85k for NASA Ames (Mountain View) is pretty bad? A recruiter for one of NASA's contract partners reached out to me but I have no idea how these govt contract companies work lol.
damn planning to do the GM OA today but I feel pretty tired
they want this done in 2 days and I got it yesterday lmao
I think NASA lowballs but if it's all u got why not go for it?
How do I quit after one week to join a better offer lol
lmaooo renege
that's hella funny tho, is ur other offer that much better?
Yeah just full send it
yeah do it
they could fire you in an instant
so why can't you leave when you want to leave
True
Well the team has been really nice so I feel bad but it’s too big of a difference to pass up
god damn that's hell of a jump
tbh that’s pretty fucking bad not gonna lie (as someone who worked for NASA…. 85k in mtn view does Not go far lol)
NASA lowballed the SHIT out of me for my internship and i had no choice but to suck it up
would not recommend
shitty ass dev culture too
ahh okay thanks for the insight. The compensation was already a red flag for me, but having crappy culture on top of that is just a dealbreaker lol
it may be different from team to team and org to org within nasa like at all big companies. i rly loved the people on my team, but the dev team never got enough funding and there was no code review or testing and i got screwed over w a return offer bc of budget
so basically the dev team doesn’t get enough $$$$ which makes everything else bad
damn that's a shame =/
hopefully they get better by the time we're all in the later years of our careers and can just work on interesting space shit or something
NASA in mountain view is close to where I work now and yeah you'll die on 85k
@knotty basin what there doesn't get code reviews or testing. That makes me 
pretty much 85k is actually legitimately under the poverty line and not just developers being like IMMA BE POOR ON 100k lol
it was suspicious as hell hahahaha
mostly internal use tools and projects but still
Okay I was about to lose all faith in our space program lmao
trust me i did LOL
Working for NASA does sound cool tho
yeah i got to work on a really cool project and got a lot of autonomy
Hey guys! I'll be graduating in December and looking for job postings for January of 2022. Am I in the right channel? ahah
yeah december 2021 graduates should search in the 2022 channel
Amazing! Thanks guys
no problem 👍
Also would you guys know how important hackathons are on a resume? I'm international and therefore have no experience to put on there. I'd be interested to know if you guys participated in any and if so which ones?
I only have one but was lucky enough to get into Stanford's
probably just equivalent to good projects, idk
Thanks, I figured it'd be something like that but it's rarely mentionned on resume help blogs and groups ahah
what do you title a renege email lol
hey guys, what are some smart question to ask an engineering manager during an interview?
Hey guys, has anyone had technical interview with CVS and didn’t hear back?
"So when do I start?"
best question ever lol
Lol
imagine the govt ever funding NASA
good joke
day later lol
well like if u did RLY poorly it wont need to go to HC recruiter will just outright reject
Probably takes longer if it has to go to HC
sometimes this doesnt matter tho
like if u did rly well and almost all interview feedback comes back positive its usually based on a scoring system so if u score well enough on others u still get an offer
Finally got 832 on codesignal. Will ebay get back to me 
Has anyone interviewed with the same hiring manager for two rounds? Like I just talked to him two weeks ago and apparently I'm talking to him tomorrow.
I got ghosted by them with 822 fwiw
how many leetcodes do you have to do to get 800+
Codesignal records your keystrokes fyi
sometimes you may be getting rejected if you cheated
yeah
Pog
has anyone gotten anything like this?
yes I got that email LMAO
Is this for new grad?
just now?
idk if this email is actually for new grad but I did apply for a new grad position
no I got it like a week ago, also haven't applied so it's not related
ah I se
they just go straight to the final sheesh
hopefully this recruiter doesnt ghost me
I didn't respond tho so idk, but it's legit my friend checked the recruiter I thought it looked kinda weird
with the blurred buttons that don't work and stuff
my recruiter is from poland lmao
had exactly the same, they didn't lol
bro this recruiter better hit me up i am down bad rn
Anybody know what googles standard new grad tc is?
I just got the exact same one also from Poland lol
depends on area - for seattle for example the avg is 123 base, probably 140 for mtn view
yeah my hiring manager did my phone screen and then again for on sites
I don’t think u should think too much into it, mainly based on whoever’s available
For google you really need a competing offer to get a good TC
@slow breach ooh okay thanks! I was a bit confused and thought my recruiter made a mistake
Amazon SDE- University Grad 2021: Anyone completed their OAs & still waiting for decision?
Based on what others have said they've gotten, I think you've got a chance at getting interviewed yeah
Usually ppl say as long as you do really well on OA3, it can make up for messing up a bit on OA 1 and 2
Thanks for your input
!!!
can someone make the golang bear a monokuma golang bear
I kinda see this as a red flag ngl
Like ok you use Go and it works for you, fantastic
But don't get overzealous about it lol
i too love go but idk why they r so obsessed w it
i’m getting danganronpa war flashbacks lmfao
should I mention the company I'm preferring when I'm doing my renege call. I've set up a meeting with my now ex-manager for tomorrow.
I don't see why not, but people seem to keep to say it in vague terms
it's google, so saying that should hopefully make it more understandable why im reneging last minute
today at work took me 2 hrs of effort to install GO on my non admin mac and another couple of hours how go package work. If I import something dont use it GO gives error while other high level languages give warning. total bs
If they give you their number it means they are open to being called. Recruiters call you, you can do the same.
I called my recruiter several times, the informal part breaks the ice and makes it easier.
I've never had a recruiter from an actual company just call me, only revature 
Any amazon interview calls this week? For new grad role?
hey guys, do you think its important to apply to amazon new grad role using a referral?
Are you behind if you dont get an internship before you graduate but have a GPA above 3.5?
Not really, a lot of people graduate with no internships
Or schedule an interview without asking you your availability....
Literally and when they keep changing the timezones from Pacific to Mountain to Eastern
!Process Bloomberg Reject😭
You can only use this command in #2021_grad_process or #2021_intern_process
Noooo was that after the eng. Manager interview?
after the virtual onsite
I bombed the last question..first 3 went really well
Ahh sorry to hear that
Fyi there's another interview after those with an engineering manager
I got asked a fkn math question by the EM
Wtf...
@woven quartz is there a job posting for bloomberg?
One of my friends said he just got a 320k TC from Google
He's a new grad (masters)
Could it be possible he's lying
It could be possible
Yeah there’s no way an L3 gets that
He had 2 years of work experience in India before he came to get his master's
So could they have hired him as an L4?
I can believe 2 yoe and masters
I mean that’s kinda misleading to call “new grad “
But yeah if L4 (and a really good L4) then sure. No way an l3 gets anywhere close
what incentive does your friend have ot lie lol
Clout, and he basically is a new grad, the work he did in India wasn't really anything that could be considered "yoe"
It's a stretch for him to get that high of a TC but according to you guys, it's not entirely impossible
i mean if he's L4 in a top area (nyc, bay) then maybe sure, otherwise does feel like a stretch. Getting L4 at google with 2 years is already a stretch
Is it easy to get sponsorship at Canadian companies if you're a US Citizen? Has anyone here gone through this?
Kudos to him then, very impressive
It's in the bay
There's no way a master new grad can get that much, you sure he is not mistaking the rsu for 4 years as for 1 year?
Its mid-high L4 range
Lol
He said his base was 180, the rest are stock and bonus
Exactly what I thought
Doesn't this "maybe" mean he's in the top 1% of the talent pool?
Really?
Was it like a probability question or something
I've had a manager who, I shit you not, has a PhD in plasma physics, so I wouldn't be surprised if this type of thing happens once in a while
I'm starting to feel pretty hopeless. I've put in around 80 job applications since March and I graduated in May, no luck yet. Is this normal?
80 applications is a bit too small of a sample of apps, you're gonna have to keep going. All you need is just one yes
That's true. I did have one interview on Monday, though I kinda blew it
Maybe get your resume reviewed in the resume chat? Maybe you're missing things from your resume, and could boost it to get more eyes on it
That's a good idea, I'm newish to the server
Welcome! Just know it's a process, it'll take time
don't give up man.. I started applying in August last year..completed 2000th application 2 weeks back..and got 2 offers this Monday.
Sorta. It depends on the previous company bc even internally it’s hard to do 2 years to L4
being said that..I'm an international student..so rejected many times due to the visa constraint.
if you don't need sponsorship, then you can crack early.
hoping your next hunt is easier 
thanks buddy..counting on it
You guys got this 
postings are rather dry right now if you need some copium
might hit up a startup just to have a job but the pay is shit
Yep
graduated in march, welcome to the club haha
New listing should open up by the end of next month though

So you can just grind out applications around then
i mean I did some tests this week so not so bad, waiting to hear back on a couple of companies
And just improve on leetcode, system design, etc. In the mean time
but the market is not so hot rn

Hope you get some interviews my dude
ty bby
Is it weird that I also don't feel qualified for the majority of the job listings?
Even with a degree
I've been feeling like a lot of the skills listed on the lists are a wishlist
I hope so
yea 80 too little
aim for 800
let them tell u that youre not qualified, not yourself
even then youre probably qualified
Brother @neat sparrow
Enjoy the struggle brother
Getting ur first job is a once in a lifetime type thing
they hire on a rolling basis
wasnt probability, it was more towards modular arithmetic
one of those problems that have an O(1) optimal solution
Does anyone have top google questions from leetcode?
yeah I saw one but was wondering if someone has one from LC. Just wanted to see if this list is accurate

Anyone received online assessment from google? New grad SDE position
I have a coding interview coming up with rivian. Any leads on sample questions would help my preparation
I see, interesting
Are you a Waterloo student?
Or like a candian student
Nope
Got 30 mins interview for amazon new grad
Any insights regarding how to prepare please!!
Oh sounds like you're swimming bro congrats on the offer
U got the ez one, they'll go over your OA2 solution and that is basically it
Not from others experience
Nice! How'd you do on the first 2 OA's??
2nd OA didn’t go well
One question I didn’t pass all the test cases
Oh i see. Good luck!
Thanks!
What was the timeline like? When did you apply
I applied on june 6th
did you apply for the sde 2022 or 2021?
2021
would ya move to seattle from new york to amazon knowing you dont wanna stay there for more than a year
plus the risk of the pip
yeah bc it would be cool to live somewhere new for a year tbh lol
resume clout might be worth too
i would too
my partner just did that for google taiwan lol
Yeah I think it would be a fun experience
now is the time to do it
Plus isn't the risk of pip kinda exaggerated and based on your team
when u dont have as much responsibilities
yeah esp if you don't have a partner right now, then there's not much to lose
years a long time to be long distance but if you can afford plane tickets then it isnt so bad
yeah dont leave me
Also you pay much less tax in seattle than in new york
no income tax, but if it’s a big purchase just drive yourself right on down to portland and buy it there 
meanwhile I pass all my test cases and get rejected
Looooooooooool
Rip
Amazon's new grad process is totally a myth
It is
has to be a wheel spin
yes if you’re willing to drive it 3 hours up north back to seattle lmao i bought my macbook in portland and saved like 200 bucks soooo
technically you’re supposed to report those things on tax returns but i like to live life on the wild side 
worth
unless if gas is expensive
yeah if you’re gonna drop 10k on furniture might be worth for the 1k you save on sales tax tbh
The gas money is the tax
Lol
I don't think gas up there should be that expensive
It's already $4/gal here in the bay lol
Would be sad if it was like that in more places
it isn’t
Yeah over here it’s 
But yours is worse
Everyday I’m learning more reasons not to move over there but I’m ignoring them
I've heard its even closer to 4.5 in san jose now
I think Safeway is the only place near me with gas just below $4/gal lol
cheveron reaches those prices
Diesel starting to look kinda nice rn
It's about the same price as gas but diesel cars get much better mileage
is even costco above 4?
I think max in my area was like 4.30
my costco doesn't have a gas station unfortunately
ya that’s what it is here in socal too
I did my bachelors in texas, and got used to seeing gas prices starting with 1. California prices are just crazy
Just filled up my 15 gal tank at costco and it cost me 50
nah
i was at 1/4 of a tank
so more than that for a full tank
prius is god
damn
just get an EV tbh
yeah hybrids and diesels are gods
first step: have the money for an EV
Instructions unclear
I think my dad's diesel gets like 35mpg city and then 40+ on the highway
don’t lease
charging infrastructure kinda non-existant atm though
Buy it in cash
Yeah used car market is crazy rn
I’m just gonna buy new idgaf
People are selling used cars for more than they bought it for lmao
vmware give me signing so i can buy a new car challenge
massive stonks
epic
i gotta negotiate for it as it stands they arent giving me one lol
oh lmao
Idk take a perusal thru the new grad salary sharing but i’d say anywhere from 10-40k LOL
i hope you can negotiate something thicc
Are u at the offer stage with any other companies? That could mean much more money since theyll bid against each other
i dont rly anticipate issues asking for 10-15k tbh
not quite at offer stage but have final interviews next week so i am going to leverage that, + i know the offer for one of those companies so if i have to make up an offer i will lol
i’m planning to ask for what i want: if they say they can’t do it keep interviewing: go back to them with offer lmao
Car prices are crazy high used or new recently. Hold off buying a car if you live in someplace where the public transportation is half decent
so not the west coast LOL
public transportation 😔
corolla goat 
Anyone interviewed for Wepay frontend engineer? How is the first technical round
True I've had no issues with it since i bought it like 4 years ago?
Except one which was a $50 finish it was just an ignition coil or somethin
my roommates and i share a 2001 corolla. runs great 
Hi , I would like to update my resume in amazon portal
I got a mail saying that I need to schedule for a interview next week
Will that be fine if I update the resume now?
easier
Rlly
u can just get downleveled if u perform poorly
but ur question didnt mention that
if ur talking about lvl 3 for a company like facebook thats the lowest eng level
so u would just get rejected
if ur interviewing for a mid level and u perform poorly at that level, they might give u l3 offer
but it would be near the top of the band for l3
pay band
good to hear 
Anyone know if the SDE code assessment for Amazon let's you choose Python for the second part? Or is it completely Java, C++ or C?
You can use Python
Sweet
has anyone gone through amazon new grad 3 onsite interviews recently?
Yes, I’ve done that before
is there an amazon new grad server ? i remember seeing one a while back
cries in ontario at 13% with insane income tax as well
Has anyone here taken Microsoft's Codility assessment recently or this year
I have my Microsoft's Codility test in this week
I am an indian student, and currently doing an internship at Microsoft
Honest question, especially for people in Canada:
Has Covid actually made it harder to get a job rn, or is it just more of an excuse, and it has always been like this?
I think it's definitely made it harder for Canadians to get a job, atleast in the US
Companies are a little more hesitant to sponsor people
Anybody knows how long it takes for Google to get back to you after team matching convos
What about jobs in Canada? I am not having luck in finding many new grad positions. 80-90% of the postings that I see ask for 2+ years at least. Are there any better job boards than linkedin?
No clue about within Canada unfortunately as I'm not Canadian
No worries, and Thanks!
Yeah no problem 👍
There are some more Canadians in this server so they can probably answer your question in the morning
I definitely got rejected a lot because of needing a visa even if it’s just a TN. Not all companies wanna deal with even that
I would say most my interviews ended up being for the US companies but whenever I applied to Canadian ones I had an easier time
For Amazon, will we get an OA for a role, if we attempted an OA for a different role in the last 6 months?
Same Please
A week approx
Anybody interview with Wish before? I’m scheduling my second technical phone and I’m wondering how much harder it’ll be than the first/how much harder the rest of the process will be
How was your first technical?
LC lvl?
2 LC medium, one more difficult
Has anyone interviewed for Stytch?
When did you apply?
@orchid ibex I think you're the first here to hear back from them! Congrats
Has anyone didn't hear back from Google after sending your transcript?
Did anyone here got the 3hr interview for amazon and cleared it to get the offer ?
are postings still dry out here?
Many people did
Do you anyone in particular who can share his/her interview experience ?
Know*
Anyone interviewed with blackrock? I have a 2 hr interview for associate developer position with 4 rounds (30 mins each)
@inland spear
I did u gotta know ur behavioral in and out
I was messing up with one dude
And he was making a weird face at me
Still got an offer
But have ur stories down
For the technical dude gave me like 15 min 30 for behavioral
I heard back from Sytch
I got rejected
Oh yeah I remember, just thought have an interview
I didnt do too well either still moved on
moved on with 3.5/7
Iirc OA1 and 2 are given to everyone
Did you already give an onsite?
No. btw transcript is before onsite
Oh okay i was asked for a transcript, OA and snapshot survey after the onsite lol
If its been like a week i think you should follow up with a recruiter if you have one
I would really appreciate if a 2021 grad who has recently started their position would DM me. I'm seeking advice for the next new grad season. I won't take up much of your time. Thanks.
You can just ask questions here if they're not too personal
pm me and I’ll try my best to help out
is it to late for me to start applying to jobs in the states
