Anyone applied/working for Mthree (Wiley edge)?

craggy bridge
#

Can I dm you ask some questions regarding applying to wise

crystal arrow
#

So, yesterday I came to know that it is nearly 2% to work as a PR. The F1+OPTs/CPTs cover some years of work permit however after that you most likely need to apply for H1B which are very tough.

If you are a non-US graduate, the process is even more hard making it nearly 0%.

As I did not know anything about these, this broke my heart. I have been practicing leetcode for quite some time and build my career upon fulfilling the requirements for those swe jobs. All for nothing probably.

Now, I am asking if there is any way to get into those fortune 100 companies if not faang, in any other way.
For example, applying in the German Branch, or any other EU branch? Or Canada branch?

Does anyone know how hard it is to get a work permit + internship/new grad position in Canada without a Canadian Degree or any other visa.

And what about Germany or other EU countries? Do they accept foreigners without a visa and sponsor for their visa? How hard is the process there?

False, it’s a shitshow if you’re not Canadian or Mexican

#

That’s where you’re wrong kiddo

#

It is indeed a not dual intent visa. However it’s easier to get H1B since you’re already in the country and with experience gigachad

does anyone know what to do if my 60 day to reapply for OPT has expired and my initial OPT packet got to USCIS after 30 days?

Hey! How hard is it to get a job in the US being from asia?

glass crystal
digital compass
#

Studying in asia

glass crystal
#

Uh, afaik it is very hard
Unless you are truly goated

You have a better chance to work at branches in Asia tho

#

Or you can come to US for masters or so
That way, you can get a job in the US relatively easily

digital compass
#

Ah thanks!

#

What about US remote jobs?

#

Is it even harder?

digital compass
#

Thank you CatStare 👍

vestal current
#

i am from singapore and there are people who have gotten h-1b1 visa to work in US easily. all without having to study in US

digital compass
vestal current
#

Either way, I’d say apply to the companies directly and let them/you figure out the visa issues

#

There are visas like O-1 for outstanding individuals who have not studied in US to work in US

#

And probs even other visa classes that can get you a sponsorship to work in US. Do your research ig

#

Or work in an MNC and ask for internal transfer to whichever country/city you wanna go to

digital compass
#

@vestal current Thanks alot!!

TN gigachad

rotund raven
#

does anyone know what should a student do who filed for OPT past the 30 period of being issued the I-20 and also outside the 60 day period of getting a new I-20. Basically if the OPT gets rejected they wont be able to apply for a new one. They already have a job at a big company but cant start working till they get the OPT. Has anyone had such situation or anything similar before?

rotund raven
#

I dont think USCIS takes calls, does it?

#

yea the dont

#

TN visas are so nice

I just went to the US consulate for a vibe check and they approved me gigachad

If company says "PwC does not intend to hire experienced or entry level job seekers who will need, now or in the future, PwC sponsorship through the H-1B lottery" So can we apply for internships in these kind of company who say we don't sponsor, but we don't even need sponsorship for internship right?

Hi guys, I also write here since I find myself in the "International" area.
I'm new, my name is Alex, I work at Accenture (Italy🇮🇹 ) in the consulting area, if anyone wants help feel free to reach me 😁 (I'll do the same with you too).

Anyone who's starting their masters this fall 22, and started preparing for summer 2023 co-op?

vestal current
# half bloom Im saying you can

think he meant he wants to intern (assuming off-campus) before summer, so thats gonna be <2 sems since stepping foot into US and thats not allowed

#

just to note, if its on-campus internship, thats allowed

#

I'm an incoming freshman and won't have a US/Canadian phone no. until my flight in September, but I still want to apply early in August for competitive fresh/soph programs. Would it be a bad idea to put my phone number from my home country or should I just wait and apply in september until I get a US phone number?

thin dome
#

I don't think that matters tbh

#

they must know where you're located in anyways

hardy lodge
thin dome
#

I haven't studied in the US either

hardy lodge
#

oh i see. it's just that the internship stipulates that i'm studying in the us/canada and i don't want to confuse them by throwing in my home country phone number

vestal current
#

if i were you, id wait till sept just to remove any unconscious bias

hardy lodge
#

so what are "phone" interviews then?

vestal current
#

theyre mostly technical coding interviews via codesignal, coderpad, zoom etc.

#

some comapnies call your phone tho, ik BoA and bloomberg (either called on zoom or cell idr) did that

hardy lodge
vestal current
#

shouldnt make any diff tbh. msft recruits up till jan/feb so sept isnt late at all lmao

if anything, mroe time to prep for companies beyond just froshmore progs

#

I have interviewed with G/Amaz before but not from JPM etc firms. Is it because of the sponsorship?

#

im trying to switch companies so what are some companies that give interviews pretty well like amz/G?

high shale
#

I see. So only top tech would accept me ig

#

Ive used 2 months for now but i dont like my team lmao

high shale
#

I will delete once you read

#

I dont really like it here though and benefit aint that great

#

So i was thinking of switching

#

So yeah i was applying to firms and got insta reject so kinda surprised

#

Yup

#

Nah bro i graduated this may

#

So opt right now

#

Kinda free to move

#

Idk bro if i should put it or not

#

2 months doesnt tell stuff

#

Is it going to be bad if i apply to new grad role with current job on my resume?

#

U planning to switch too?

#

Interesting

#

I actually got goldman sachs OA with my current job

#

I will take notes on this

#

Yeah

#

Where u working rn that u want to switch?

#

I think it has to do with culture alot for me

#

I think all the tech companies i heard have shitty wlb

#

Lmaoooo

#

except for G?

#

But bro h1b is lottery

#

😂😂😂

#

Yeah but i think it’s bs

#

Some people did not get it and their rate is not up

#

Yeah i think it’s pure luck

#

U cant trust the numbers

#

But imo

#

I think if we both move

#

And get another job before marxh

#

Then they can apply for h1b at new company

#

If that makes sense for you

#

I will look in to this. Thanks man

#

Yeah i dont think we have to wait for another year as h1b lottery is every march

#

Before january if you move i think ur good

#

This tbh

#

Yeah im also considering that but considering time left on my opt and new grad application wise 😂

any F1 here students able to take school off and intern Fall/Spring full time?

#

My school says “intl students can strictly only use full time cpt in the summer only”

#

What schools allow fall/spring fill time cpt?

cyan smelt
#

afaik all schools allow part-time cpt in fall/spring but you have to be enrolled full-time. mine only allows full-time in summer/winter break.

#

you cannot take time off from school to intern

#

Anyone know if amazon allows u to switch US offer to like outside the US ?

vestal current
#

Ask the hr. But since amzn’s an MNC, I don’t see why not

jovial notch
#

I'm not from the UK but am from Canada and I think Canadian salaries are much better than UK salaries. New grad offers at FAANG can be $130k - 150k CAD TC. A normal company would start at $60-80k CAD. Another benefit is that a lot of US companies offer remote work from Canada which pay higher and if you're a Canadian citizen, you can work in the US indefinitely under a TN visa

half bloom
#

long request but: anyone know major tech companies with offices in EMEA/APAC that sponsor visas with internships that are non-summer?
asking cuz that's the only way i can intern during the Fall and Spring since I can't do it in the US with CPT (school only allows summer fulltime)

long jay
#

Anyone know of any freelance developer gigs out in the EMEA?

  • PwC

#

anyone know if AMD considers F-1 students

humble kindle
#

Are there any companies except for faang who are willing to sponsor EB-3 (while on OPT) instead of H1-B for new grad jobs? I'm checking myvisajobs.com and the majority of small companies only do h1b

static musk
#

Is it true that every consulting company will not sponsor GC's on first day?

half bloom
#

Rip

#

So i’m considering finding off season internships outside the US

#

cuz you can take a leave of absence for like <5 months and Still be able to use CPT for the summer in most cases again when u return (no need to wait 1 yr)

vestal current
#

Is it worth delaying graduation for offszn internships tho?

#

If anything, they’re more competitive?

half bloom
#

Id do it if i can land FAANG or quant or unicorns EMEA/APAC

plucky solstice
#

Boys is there any point in trying to go for in person internships and applying for faang's unicorns quant etc. even after being underage? I'm not sure if theyd sponsor my visa to go fly to those places as im currently 17

#

should I just be focusing on remote startup internships or what do yall think is the move? cause I already have one on my belt at a remote startup company

glass crystal
plucky solstice
#

id be 17

#

im 16 right now if im applying for winter (jan-march) id be 17

plucky solstice
#

nah idk cause i dont wanna waste my time applying to in eperson positions if i know they wont sponsor cause of age you know

half bloom
#

basically the only way i can intern fall/spring as an internatioanl student in my current school is to take a semester off and intern outside the US

#

cuz my school doesnt allow us to do fall/spring full-time internships

zenith flame
half bloom
#

Yeah ik

#

fuck my school

half bloom
#

i dont really know the specifics but if u take a leave of absence then it should be fine. But if ur leave is > 5 month of absence then u need to do stuff with ur SEVIS or smt i have no clue rn

#

So i think something like this would be possible:

...
Summer 2023 US Internship (CPT)
Fall 2023 - Leave of Absence --> leave US to do ur own stuff like an internship outside the US
Spring 2024 - School
Summer 2024 US Internship (CPT)
...
half bloom
#

yeah most wont but there are companies that will and its worth the attempt

#

when is the best time to bring up visa sponsorship questions? Like should I ask if they do h1b/gc immediately or wait till later (after offer?). I dont wanna waste my time if they dont sponsor but also dont wanna screw myself

how does job hopping on OPT / H1-B work?

#

is it risky? and does it impact green card chances

cyan smelt
#

ez on opt, just switch employers and they can apply for h1b for the next fiscal year if they want

#

h1b is a bit more complicated...it's better if you look at official sources

half bloom
#

and how's the process from OPT --> GC (skip H1-B) if you aren't from a backlogged country? also does it help to be at a FAANG/big tech for GC applications?

cyan smelt
#

OPT --> GC is heavily employer dependent, you need to talk to your manager to figure that out. Some employers are more than happy to sponsor GC without H1B, others might want to "test" you for a bit longer before they commit to GC. If you're not from backlogged country GC should "only" take you a few years at most. Once you've applied for GC you can stay and work in the US even w/ expired OPT and without a GC. Not sure about FAANG/big tech though, it might help, it might not. As long as you're not from WITCH you should be fine lol

#

Yep

#

Unless there's something weird going on with your application green card is pretty much guaranteed

#

yep gc is based on your birth country

#

not passport

cyan smelt
#

wipro/infosys/tcs/cognizant/hcl. h1b sweatshops, they pay minimum h1b wage and treat employees as slaves. the last place you would go to if you cannot get a job anywhere else.

so im graduating this fall 2022 (December), at a mediocre university with a 3.635 gpa, CS major, had ~400 applications on Linkedin applied since last year, 40 indeed, some from ziprecruiter and some from ripplematch - almost all of them were rejected/ghosted, i had 1 internship, ~24 leetcode problems solved, and i have no idea what to do - I want to get H1-B eventually, but as of lately for applying full time (i think its been about 30-40 jobs recently), all rejections, and the ones that are reaching out are the sketchy consultancy type stuff like tcs/synergistic IT... and i also dont know if i've got a shot at FAANG at all

you should post your resume

also start grinding leetcode and try getting into amazon

#

unfortunately, they sent it one week into my exams beginning and it was going to expire on the last day of my exams - and I had immediately asked the recruiter if we could have it rescheduled and he agreed to that, stating he would send the link again after it expires

#

He never did, and after reaching out back and forth, he said "i'll send it" and then he finally just stopped replying

strong rain
#

ya recruiters are fking troll like that

lucid bloom
#

this whole year has been a rollercoaster of false hopes and crushed plans

nimble chasm
#

If my conferral date is Feb 01, I can apply for OPT on the USCIS website in November. Sometimes, the processing times are too long (3-5 months), so would you recommend me to stick with a Feb 06 job start date? Or push it forward? I am very confused...

vital grove
#

If there is a delay they give you a latter start date you dont have to worry about that

nimble chasm
#

Yes. Any idea abt what happens if I get OPT after the company's start date? Will there be conflicts for start dates?

vital grove
#

But since you already have a job you can just apply at the earliest so you will have the EAD in hand by the start date

#

Very unlikely that it will be delayed considering recent timelines

Question for F-1 students: how do you guys go about sponsorship question when interviewing with a company for a new grad position? Do you keep saying “No” until they hire you and you reach the paperwork process?

you do that you will likely get your offer revoked

#

and maybe even blacklisted

#

you just say when you're applying that you need sponsorship

you can get away if it's an internship and you don't intend to come back but for new grad roles, absolutely not

#

so i just waited like a dumb for the ldn one to open

ocean hemlock

ldn one was open initially

#

but they had a lot of apps so removed the posting from the site

finite bay
ocean hemlock
#

they put them back recently

finite bay
#

why they taking so long lol 😭

ocean hemlock
#

amazon recruitment is a blackbox

finite bay
#

are they always this slow

#

u said this year it was worse?

#

all big companies seem to be really slow

#

i got only one company which is moving really fast rn

ocean hemlock

the OA iirc is some leetcode style and then more basic debugging stuff

#

they have a workstyle assessment (like situational judgement stuff) but I don't know if that is part of the OA

zinc mica
#

it's simply 2 x LC qs, 15 min behavioral questionnaire and then a short survey at the end

So can international students interview for amazon uk?

bruh sounds like the email i got before i did the OA

#

said i was waitlisted for a behavioural

#

got behavioural next day

#

yes i think so

#

i had an codility and a behavioural all at the same time

#

it was kinda weird i dont know if thats common or not

#

didn't have to do OA before, it was all organised at 1 time

#

yeye same as me then

#

u get this 3-4 days after your behavioural?

#

cause thats when they said they would tell me lmfao

#

bruh really

#

shit

#

u think they reached headcount

#

?

#

when did u have behavioural?

#

was it recent

#

bruhhhhhhhhh why they taking so long

#

they are either at headcount or just have too many apps

#

same

#

i heard some fang in the usa just have a tonne of apps

#

same and they still taking ages lol

#

u go to a target uni

#

i heard they recruit first from the top unis and then spend the rest of the time interviewing everybody else

#

not sure what they consider target tho

#

WAIT REALLY

#

what

#

frrr

#

thats late for them wtf

#

since u had meta t your career fair it makes me think msft just has a lot of apps lol

#

im waiting still

#

people have waited 2 months

#

no clue whats going on this year

#

is it always like this lol

#

people were telling me to expect to wait ages for amazon (like 3 weeks) its been 5 now

zinc mica
#

also, I wouldnt expect zurich oa in case you got london

finite bay
#

nah got nothing from london, only applied step tho

zinc mica
#

matching pool is the same at the end

finite bay
#

sent normal swe one today

zinc mica
finite bay
#

i done a final so im just praying i can get that and be done with all this

finite bay
zinc mica
#

for example, you got oa for london swe intern, if you successfully complete the process, you are thrown into the team match pool of whole emea

zinc mica
finite bay
zinc mica
#

maybe it's cuz I had a referral for the first three

#

I thought it was 90 days normally (from last year) but maybe it changed

finite bay
#

tbh i wouldn't worry how long G takes

#

u might hear back in Jan lmao

zinc mica
#

Not sure but dont think so

finite bay
#

i heard from them in Feb-Mar 2022 for summer 2022

#

they be taking their sweet ass time

zinc mica
#

We review applications on a rolling basis. --> applies in the first hour of apps with a referral and hears back 6 months later

there needs to be a emea cscareers lol

amazon uk is not hurrying up for sure

finite bay
#

no clue if its my fault or not

#

tbh imma take any offer kekw_recession_edition

#

is it me or are the swe internships in the UK kinda non existent

#

i swear there was more this time last year

#

its gotta be the economy sad_cowboy

#

i only see like 10-15 apps on linkedin

ocean hemlock
#

Anyone done Bloomberg system design or final round?

zinc mica
#

@slim silo it's definitely easier compared to me for example

#
  • you have ireland uk internships for which you could've gotten straightforward rejected because of visa (msft and many other companies do this)
#

I think so?

#

L1 is an option or H1B

#

no, it means you are advantaged bcs you dont require visa for those offices

#

yes

#

people with us masters have different caps and so on

#

yep

finite bay
#

L1 usually for managerial positions

zinc mica
#

iirc it's not that uncommon since company can keep trying for h1b a few times till 2 years for your L1 passes

finite bay
#

imma have to see if i can get one of those

zinc mica
#

I think it was 2 years btw

#

gotta check it

finite bay
#

2 years is still chill tbh

zinc mica
#

yeah

finite bay
#

i would be willing to wait 2 years if it means i can get out lmao

zinc mica
#

2 h1b lottery tries meanwhile

#

and you had %33 chance or sth in H1B?

zinc mica
#

I remember sth along the lines of company directly applying to GC too

you reach out to immigration dep and they can apply to gc day 1

but it seems like we dont have any link or anything

#

so it seems like it is not live coding? @marsh oasis

half bloom
#

what office?

tidal nymph
#

yeah but like live coding with someone watching the code

#

i think it's not for this stage

#

also, heard good reviews about MS London, that's why im applying haha

#

are you uk based?

#

fair fair

#

i thought microsoft reached headcount :/

#

the working hours at GS is questionable

finite bay
#

frrrr i gotta get one of those green cards kekw_recession_edition

tidal nymph
#

hmmm TC = 60k?

#

i think it's more

#

base is 55k

finite bay
#

i seen 80k

#

mentioned

#

which sounds correct imo cause i heard some other large banks give 80k grad

#

fr bruh USA intern tc is crazy

tidal nymph
#

hmm MS yeah

#

JPMC is far behind .-.

finite bay
#

😭

#

kekw_recession_edition lol fr it aint that bad

#

def possible to have a good quality of life for sure

#

just not the place for super high tc

#

also depends where u live

#

80k can go well far in some places lmfao

#

be balling

#

loool

#

the only place to get super high tc new grad is probably quant in the uk

#

places like citadel, hrt stand out the most

#

bruh wtf

#

lmao

#

thats funny af

#

perhaps its supposed to be 1.5 mil

#

i seen some really senior G people on 1m uk

Oh ok

60k sounds right then, thats what amazon pays too

#

Nah new grads get 49k base and 30k stock over 4 years

Other 2% started early and got offers

tidal nymph

#

google never got back to me so i guess that is a lost case as well

tidal nymph
#

i didnt even do online assessment (if there are) i just sent the application and got ghosted

zinc mica
#

Anyone heard back from step?

zinc mica
#

I applied first day with referral but it might be that I havent applied to london

#

Apparently they were ahead in the process compared to other offices

tidal nymph
#

when it opened i think?

#

It's for full time swe tho

#

applied for london

ocean hemlock
tidal nymph
#

yeah

#

london one

ocean hemlock
#

rip thought they were still closed

#

is their new grad diff to normal swe, like are they 2 diff postings

#

or is swe = new grad

tidal nymph
#

not sure tbh, i applied whatever i saw that wasnt internship and not requiring 5 years experience

#

p sure it was new grad

ocean hemlock
#

yh makes sense

#

nope

#

takes a while i think

#

sucks tbh

not required, u can still fill out the app without it

#

nvm i found my transcript

msft gotta be at headcount or close so amazon has gotta be the same

just wonder whether amazon is either hiring more than msft, or im on some form of waitlist for an interview if a position opens up

#

🤷‍♂️

finite bay
#

nah they said i did good but they no longer have a position for me

assume that means they have reached headcount 🤷‍♂️

yeah exactly

i was suppsoed to have my sky onsite next week but they cancelled it cause of the train strikes
