Apple seems safe rn

[near grove]

yeah

i think apple pays hourly for juniors which is a bit weird

not sure tbh

it looks like ict3 is 110k+

Well this guy's got 1 yoe so probably a bit lower for us

[near grove]

iwant a job

😢

[hidden wind]

You're getting Amazon and apple ez

Ive read some rumors somewhere that amazon might be starting to hire again soon

Lmaoo

Samee

I remember back in October feeling good about my Amazon application (i even applied with a friend referral)

And then boom

Ghosted

[near grove]

L

I got completely fucked by the bb interview

[hidden wind]

Ngl referrals work kinda wierd in some companies

[near grove]

Nothing has ruined my self confidence in lc more than that interview lol

[hidden wind]

LC hard?

Mine were medium i would say

[near grove]

It was a medium dp, at that point I had not learned dp lol

[hidden wind]

I can relate to that, but bit manipulation in atlassian onsites

[near grove]

I got that question somewhere

Citadel maybe? Or optiver

[near grove]

Nope

I applied 2 weeks ago

[cunning umbra]

Yap, can relate

Did not know about Bloomberg’s list

then I entered this server

imagine my surprise when I found my question on Leetcode xD

new grad or intern?

applied some weeks ago as well

got nothing

but Spotify is weird because they removed every full time job opening and posted only internships

they had like 100 full time jobs

[near grove]

I dont think spotify takes new grads

Oh u meant like real full time

[cunning umbra]

ya

thank you. did not know about this one

[cunning umbra]

so at this point I don’t know if they are doing internships announcements just for image

[near grove]

Gotta fill the gaps somehow lmao

[cunning umbra]

like Amazon who keeps posting job openings on LinkedIn even though they have tens on the whitelist

Do you guys know sth bout Bloomberg London? maybe from friends

I’ve been waiting for 3 weeks already to have my sys design round scheduled yet got nothing

[near grove]

Nah

My last friend who interviewed was at the start of dec

[cunning umbra]

🥲

[near grove]

Dunno anyone who's interviewed after that

[cunning umbra]

actually I don’t know

that was in US as far as I know

in dec they still had plenty of openings

for London I mean

why wouldn’t my recruiter tell me this then

I’ve been spamming with 2 mails/week for the last 3 weeks xD

every time she answered my mails, telling me they are busy atm and will schedule my interview in the near future

intern

one. told them about that… but didn’t help that much

it’s not a crazy offer tho

Softwire

[near grove]

Ya i don't think they will expedite unless it's a competitive offer against theirs

[cunning umbra]

talked with a guy who had JP

still didn’t expedite

[near grove]

Lmao

Jp is quite competitive with bb as well kinda

Saw some people announce their ng offers on linkedin yesterday, I think it's doomed

Andninterns have been doing it for a while

It's like 10k less

Jpmc is 64k tc and bb is 70-80k

u need to stop comparing everything to the us

literally every country is shit for pay compared to them

80k puts you in the top 5%

[cunning umbra]

i mean

switzerland pays nice

xD

[near grove]

barely any jobs there

[cunning umbra]

only big tech ya

[near grove]

the pay isn't that great compared to col unless you go to google

[cunning umbra]

Canada has nice TC as well

or am I wrong?

[near grove]

canada is quite similar to uk

[cunning umbra]

oh

nvm then

[near grove]

they have high numbers cause their currency is shit lol

but when u convert its pretty similar

Toronto is fucking expensive too

[cunning umbra]

Dublin has high rents as well

[cunning umbra]

I was close to an offer there. Been struggling to find something there.

[near grove]

Nope

[near grove]

Dublin is wild

I thought we had it rough in the uk until I saw dublin's housing lol

Dry ass inbox for like 3 weeks

Literally nothing except oa's

I did it a while back and never got a response

I heard their onsite is like 5 hours

It's also been over 2 weeks since my publicis sapient sys design now

Still radio silence

Lol

They actually took 6 days to respond to my app

they're not too good at sticking to their deadlines

Yeah me neither

Someone in cscd eu got an email saying they're running late

[hidden wind]

For Interns?

[near grove]

new grad

[tidal nymph]

how does 55k + 6k equals to 64k?

[near grove]

you said theres a 4k performance bonus (that adds up to 65k i cant maths)

[hidden wind]

Does JP have benefits?

[tidal nymph]

that is based on performance

and will be at the end of the 2 years

[tidal nymph]

you get free dental checks every year

and some other nice benefits

[near grove]

ok

so 61 first year and 64 second year if ur not shit

65 god damn it

[hidden wind]

Btw UK folks, how good/bad is the private medical system compared to NHS?

[tidal nymph]

i think jp helps with that as well

[near grove]

better for minor things

private hospitals just ship you off to the nhs for anything major

[tidal nymph]

i cant remember from internship but i heard of something around helping you with private healthcare bla bla

[hidden wind]

Just like in Spain then😂😂

[near grove]

its not really worth it imo

but if your job gives you it then go crazy

[hidden wind]

Yeah, I'm gonna do that

NHS do not cover dental i would imagine

[near grove]

not in the backwards country we call england

[tidal nymph]

ahahahaha

does scotland cover dental?

i heard it does cover some eye test

[near grove]

for under 26 yeah

[tidal nymph]

for dental??

[near grove]

and yeah eye tests are free in scotland also

yes

[tidal nymph]

damn

[near grove]

we get a lot of free stuff here

thanks to no tories

😎

yeah

[tidal nymph]

not for international >:)

[near grove]

cant imagine paying that much

our uni sucks

[near grove]

you guys are the ones paying for scottish and eu students' tuition lmfao

[tidal nymph]

yeah im losing so much money on you guys ffs

[hidden wind]

How much does uni cost there?

Top ones

[near grove]

depends on the uni and course but generally 25-50k a year for internationals

9k for uk students

[old basalt]

Why would intl students go to uk. Makes no sense. No job market for intl really

[near grove]

?

There are plenty of jobs, way easier to sponsor visas here than the us at least

[old basalt]

Na eu laws i think go along like you need to prove intl student is better than 75 percent of eu population

Plus they pay peanuts

[near grove]

Not true at all, UK is not in the EU and that rule doesn't apply to every country there anyway

And the pay is arguably the best outside of NA and switzerland

Sponsoring is very easy, all the employer has to do is prove the job satisfies the visa requirements and they can sponsor

[tidal nymph]

that was before brexit, but brexit happened, so intl are only competing with uk people or eu people with pre-settle status

i dont think anyone has the settled status rn

[hidden wind]

I've chosen London over NYC

I wanna see the culture there

See how is it like and might move later

I get it if you only care about tc you should definitely go to the us but there are other factors to be looked at imo

[near grove]

👍

u made a good choice

[near grove]

mission complete

we convinced this guy to come get stuck in london while we all fuck off to the us in 2 years

😎

seems like palantir nyc may have a space for me now

[hidden wind]

[near grove]

the email is actually "i'm terribly sorry for the delay" we will get back to you next week

just doxed meself

oops

there we go

this preview was evil

[cunning umbra]

Emailed Citi and they yet again delayed when they'll share an update

Results were supposed to be shared in Nov now its March

[near grove]

Jpmc rejects are out boys

🫡

[frail nymph]

Grad or Intern?

[junior bay]

Both

[craggy bridge]

I was about to write same😅

I guess they reached headcount

[near grove]

Yeah, they just had the onboarding call thing yesterday

[craggy bridge]

I also applied to the Dublin location, hopefully they have not reached HC over there. I just need any job at this point😭

[near grove]

It's definitely getting a bit scary lol

[tidal nymph]

what was your first choice?

[craggy bridge]

London

[tidal nymph]

ahh rip ...

i dont think they send out separate rejection emails for the other locations

[near grove]

Dublin would be thru another posting wouldn't it

[craggy bridge]

Yeah

It’s separate

[near grove]

Cause the posting title is swe program (bournemouth Glasgow london)

[craggy bridge]

I still have the Dublin application under review

[tidal nymph]

i didnt get a separate rejection email last time

and people in the call yesterday was everyone in uk and ireland

[near grove]

Rip

[craggy bridge]

Ahh. I should forget about it then

[near grove]

they sent me 2 rejection emails just to rub it in

and I only applied to 1 location lol

Rip bro

they are really competitive for new grad

[tidal nymph]

it might depends when you applied as well

cause a lot of people accepted the return offer as backup, then a lot of companies didnt open for the new grads, so everyone kept their jp offer

[craggy bridge]

I don’t think so. Kinda feels like they priotize certain candidates

[tidal nymph]

so they ended up considering the first ones who applied in aug when they opened up

[tidal nymph]

like who?

[craggy bridge]

Like return interns, Hackathon participants or Campus event attendees etc

The rest of us who are outside those are def pushed back

This is what I think

[tidal nymph]

did you apply for the hackathon separately?

[near grove]

hackathon is a separate hiring track but yea they prioritise those

[tidal nymph]

you could apply for it apart

i did that last year

[craggy bridge]

I have never applied to their hackathon

I want to ask if someone has an idea if Bloomberg allows someone to change location after accepting offer at a separate location. Suppose I accepted an offer for Frankfurt and I want the London office. Is it possible?

[near grove]

[craggy bridge]

😅 I am just imagining the scenario if I was in that situation

I just want to confirm

[tidal nymph]

for JP you can only change your location after 1 year

i would assume they would have some kind of restrictions as well

[cunning umbra]

got an offer at Bloomberg? 😮

[craggy bridge]

I wish😭

I have phone interview coming up though

[cunning umbra]

ohh

I think we’ve talked about that

xD

I was the one waiting for the final technical round

3 weeks and they couldn’t schedule my interview

[craggy bridge]

Ohh ye

Let’s talk in DM

I need to ask few questions

[strong peak]

Has anybody applied for GSA Capital and Booking? I have ACed the coding test for both of them but was rejected.

I want to know who could be accepted by trading companies, like DRW, GSA Capital, and Citadel

[near grove]

i got an interview at optiver and passed resume screen at citadel (I think they screen before oa?)

Rejected from drw tho, and haven't done gsa

[cunning umbra]

citadel gives easily OAs

they reject afterwards

[cunning umbra]

oh. you passed Optiver’s OA 😮 good job

[near grove]

Yeah

Rejected after behavioural lol

[strong peak]

Amsterdam Office is opening. I was rejected

[strong peak]

How do you prepare for behavior questions?

The chatGPT, I think, is great

Got it !!!

[near grove]

I just research the company a lot

[strong peak]

Sooorry, bro

[cunning umbra]

was the one where you need to record the answers?

[near grove]

No

Real interview

[finite bay]

https://tenor.com/view/i-did-it-baby-fozzie-muppet-babies-i-made-it-ive-done-it-gif-25888413

i did it people

i finally got the rejection

[near grove]

Amazing win rate we have for the London office here guys, keep it up

What're we at, 0/6?

I'm actually john p morgan

[finite bay]

LOOOOL

imma add it to my collection

[finite bay]

[near grove]

where is my damn polyai

its friday!!!

[near grove]

[cunning umbra]

what is the max you can get at a codesignal

did like 849 at Databricks

still got rejected

and I read 849 it’s pretty good if I am not wrong

[near grove]

850

[cunning umbra]

thx

so that was indeed good

damn

at least I can share with other companies that require Codesignal

[junior bay]

849 is the highest possible

"Scores for the General Coding
Framework range between 600-849. "

[cunning umbra]

still not impressive for Databricks lol

prob looked again at CV and did not like it

[junior bay]

Yea, they check resume after

[cunning umbra]

but the OA was not automate tho

they look before and after

or the before goes just through some ATS

[junior bay]

I think this is what happens

[near grove]

Will polyai respond in the last 12 working minutes of the week?

[near grove]

THE ANSWER IS NO

Bro I was told I'd hear back this week from 3 companies

I heard back from 0

Except publicis sapient I guess

Yeah got my reject yesterday

Probably got rejected cause they prefer penultimate year students

My uni is rank 4 and I have all my maths courses on my cv

But its ok I'm getting polyai

(The better ai)

We just keep moving the goal posts to cope that we're not rejected

Lol

We are never getting a job

[fair crag]

What's it like working at a company outside the US? is it worth it?

[near grove]

depends on the country but its basically the same but with more worker's rights, more vacation days and less money

if you just want money then it's not worth it, just stay in america

[fair crag]

not getting offers rn so considering expanding my scope

[near grove]

most of the big companies are done or nearly done with hiring so it might be hard to find a sponsor but you can try

bruh moment

[vivid coral]

Silly question but how much money does someone need for food if you don’t want to cook and always eat out/order in in zone 1/2 (doesn’t have to be £££)
Will 30£ per dinner suffice?

Edit: London

[near grove]

Yes

[vivid coral]

Can you recommend few spot where you can eat out for 30£ ? I know this might sound crazy but when I googled I mostly saw super expensive places where a single dish cost 40£

[near grove]

£30 is a little high for takeaways but if you're going to a proper restaurant every day it'll likely be more than that

[vivid coral]

The only one I saw with <= 30£ was dishoom

[vivid coral]

Ok ok thx!

[near grove]

I dont go to restaurants that often but if you're getting delivery then you can just sort by price on uber eats or whatever

£30 will definitely be enough for a starter, main and side as long as you're not going to expensive places

For delivery

Chinatown is great, lots of cheap food

[vivid coral]

3 course sounds really fancy. Was more thinking about a main and a cola 😅

[near grove]

you could get that for less than £10

[vivid coral]

Do they have open until 7pm or so?

[near grove]

borough market has really good mushroom risotto

[vivid coral]

Sounds nice!

[vivid coral]

And how is pub food? like does it taste good and is affordable?

Never ate at a pub. Only payed crazy money for drinks 🥲

[near grove]

Tastes decent and is usually pretty cheap

[vivid coral]

Do you have a fav spot to eat in ldn?

Which you always recommend

[near grove]

Bunsik is good but that's more of a lunch thing

And there are lots of good bakeries in chinatown which I highly recommend trying

[vivid coral]

Was thinking <= 30£ per day for dinner (only dinner, no breakfast/lunch) Only have an upper bound

Would like to eat in zone 1/2 so I don’t have to rush around city after work 😂

[near grove]

I dont actually live in london, I've just been there a few times recently for interviews, so I don't have many recommendations but I never had any trouble finding food for under £10

[vivid coral]

That’s good to hear! I only have been there as a tourist and ofc interviews. So pretty much no reference points

[tidal nymph]

are you planning to eat out everynight?

[vivid coral]

I was hopping to do so. I can’t really cook (like I know the basics but eating everyday the same will make me sick) and don’t know if I will have a room with a Kitchenette.

[tidal nymph]

that is really expensive ngl

[near grove]

£30 a day really adds up lol

[tidal nymph]

are you intern or ng?

[near grove]

Thatll add up to way more than most people spend on food the entire month

[vivid coral]

Yeah I spend most of my money on food 🥲

[vivid coral]

Yeah 1k£ 😅😅

I was hoping to reduce that by finding cheap places

[tidal nymph]

...

[near grove]

Lol

[vivid coral]

Will code for food and shelter 😦

[tidal nymph]

does your internship money even cover that cost?

XD

[vivid coral]

I Hope so 🥲

[tidal nymph]

i mean, idk where you are interning

but that sounds like a lot

[near grove]

Man's gonna be spending more on food than rent lmfao

[tidal nymph]

cause keep in mine you need to spend money on transport which is also a shit ton

and rent

[vivid coral]

Still haven’t found a place to stay. All the student dorms are so expensive 🥲

[tidal nymph]

so i would suggest to maybe try learn to cook some other dishes? idk how hard it is for you, i just love cooking that's why haha

[tidal nymph]

but at least they include the bills

[vivid coral]

I wish I could love it but all I cook tastes shit 😂

[near grove]

Student accom is always expensive I recommend looking on spareroom

[vivid coral]

I heard really bad stuff from friends who lived in a shared flat

[tidal nymph]

you need to account for bills like wifi, electricity, water, gas

[near grove]

I mean bro if you learn to cook you can save an extra 800 a month lol

[vivid coral]

True. I will ask my friends if they could show me 😂

[near grove]

Hope you've got a good paying job if you don't wanna live with people hahah

[tidal nymph]

get a cook book

tbh i just follow recipes

[near grove]

I just learned from tiktok and yt

Just follow recipes yeah

[vivid coral]

Have to find a super rich old women who will pay for everything

[tidal nymph]

also im vegetarian so i save even more money on meat

but i would honestly recommend you to learn how to cook other dishes

alternate between the different cuisine every other 2 days so you dont get sick of it

[vivid coral]

How much do you spend on groceries?

[near grove]

Everything I cook is vegetarian too lol, I'm not vegetarian I just really hate cutting raw meat

[tidal nymph]

i spent around 150 in august 2022

i was in ldn that whole month

[near grove]

£200 is a reasonable amount for a combo of cooking from scratch and also stuff like oven pizzas

[wise jetty]

How much would rent be for an apartment in Zone 2/3 (London)?

And how long does it usually take to find an apartment?

[near grove]

If you're living alone I would expect 1.5k+

[vivid coral]

I constantly look her if something comes up: https://m.spareroom.co.uk

[wise jetty]

Yeah, I am too broke for that. But say 2-3 room mates?

[vivid coral]

But again that’s sharing

[near grove]

You can find rooms for under 1k

[tidal nymph]

otherwise you can find 800£ flat in zone 3

unfurnished

that's what i might be going for

[wise jetty]

Ooof , that’s hella costly.

[near grove]

What areas are that cheap in zone 3?

[wise jetty]

That’s cheap?

Damn

[tidal nymph]

share with 2 other people

[near grove]

Oh right

[tidal nymph]

yes, that's cheap for london and it's borough

[wise jetty]

I lived in Zone 1 during my internship for like 500 a month, but that was at a place called Unite Students.

Really wish I could find something similar

[near grove]

500 is super low there is no chance you'll find a flat that cheap lol

[tidal nymph]

where in the world does unite student rent out their rooms for 500quid a month in zone 1 london

[near grove]

Yeah thats crazy

[tidal nymph]

unite student in edi is already 800 quid

[wise jetty]

Think the place was called Romano court?

[vivid coral]

500 per week you mean? I spoke to few places and the lowest they told me was like 1.4K per month

[wise jetty]

Oh lol no, now I that think about it, it was 150 a week

[vivid coral]

Damn that’s a super deal

[tidal nymph]

edi is not even this price wtf

[vivid coral]

When did you book?

[wise jetty]

A month before my internship

So maybe late May?

[near grove]

It's probably cause it was off cycle

No students in it at that time

[wise jetty]

Had to share with 4 other people, and was during summer

[wise jetty]

Yeah that just might be it

[tidal nymph]

there isnt space in may cause everyone is still in uni

[wise jetty]

Also, what areas should I look at if I am looking for a “younger crowd”?

[near grove]

150 is still insanely cheap, mine in edinburgh was more than that and it was sharing with 6 people 30 mins out of the centre

[vivid coral]

For that location 150£ is a dream. I would instantly book this 😂 but sadly they haven’t listed yet

Or they are full.

[tidal nymph]

i dont think they will list it for 150

like, in this economy, accomodations make so much money

[wise jetty]

This is what the agreement looked like

[tidal nymph]

frame this up

it needs to be remembered

[wise jetty]

I definitely feel like I got super lucky with it

Had some ex interns recommend this.

Also, any idea what areas I should look at if I am looking for a “younger crowd”?

[tidal nymph]

im not from ldn so i cant tell you

[vivid coral]

Oh with Shared bathroom

[tidal nymph]

i was last summer

[wise jetty]

Yep, would have liked to have my own. But wasn’t too bad.

[vivid coral]

Your internship ended in august or September?

[wise jetty]

August

[vivid coral]

Because most places I contacted couldn’t offer me until mid September 😦

I Need until late September 🥲

[wise jetty]

Yeah, mine started a bit early. So had to rent this other place for the first 2 weeks before moving in at Romano court

🥲

[vivid coral]

Where did you stay before?

Might have to do the same

[crystal arrow]

What will you suggest to a guy who graduated recently in Jan'23, is based in South Asia, and trying to relocate to Canada?
The guy has 2 SWE Internships, 2 RA, and TA experience, a 5-month Full-Stack dev experience, 2 Research papers, and have done 30+ LCs.

A. Prepare for masters, do well in GRE+IELTS, Have more Research -> Get into a decent Uni -> Do internships -> Join Full time (2.5 years timeframe at least)
B. Do at least 300+ LCs, apply to every job, and pray that there will be one that may sponsor a visa.
C. Join a local company that nobody heard of, gain experience of 3-4 years, apply to jobs as a Senior, and pray the same as before. (There is no MNC in my city)

[finite bay]

have u looked at express entry? i believe this is an option for canada, where people submit their information. work experience, education, language, family information, financial information and they will give you a "score". i think if the score is high enough they will offer some kind of a visa but im not 100 percent sure how it works since im from the UK. but i have looked into it personally and it seems pretty interesting. The visa should allow you to work etc etc. it appears you can increase your "score" by having higher levels of education, being in a work field which is in "demand", having a good amount of work experience, and having family connections and a stable financial situation, also having a job offer increases the score too.

its better to apply when your younger too from what i have heard since younger people moving to canada will contribute more to their economy than somebody who is older. pay more taxes over their life, earn more money etc etc

[near grove]

yeah express entry gives you permanent residence

it's a good option, the score cutoff was very high around 2021/2022 cause they paused it for a year or two during covid but it might be back to normal now

from what i remember before covid if you have a bachelors, 1-2 years of experience and speak basic french you were almost guaranteed to meet the score requieement

[crystal arrow]

Great Advice, Thanks. But I am not really sure if they would count the internship experience as the same as the full-time job experience. And, I only have a bachelor's, a master's would be a great help too. And I don't wanna just move to that country for the sake of moving, I would like to have an aim, you know? Like, if I do the Master's there, I can probably reapply for jobs, probably will get an internship at a top company. Or, a job with sponsorship would be good too.
I am not sure, my scores will go higher in the Express Entry based on the "Criteria". However, not to brag, I did some actual real-world problem-solving projects which were well received in the community. For example, I made a free latex editor using devcontainers with vscode+git+live-share+grammarly integration the last November and it already received 140+ stars and 110+ forks. There are also some other projects like split-fare extensions for ride-sharing apps, and so on. But, I am really doubtful that they would count these as "skill"

[near grove]

if you're interested you can use this site to calculate your score https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp

the requirement was 791 in the most recent round

[crystal arrow]

Uh-huh! Bachelor's Degree, 2 years exp (Counting the Paid Internships), IELTS score made up to 400. So far away from the minimum requirements. I think it is for the seniors. And if you have an offer letter from type00 company, know French, have siblings (I have relatives but not siblings), then it can go upto 700+

[near grove]

A few years ago it was in the 500s, I think it's still not recovered from being closed due to pandemic

Lots of highly qualified people still waiting

In that case it's probably easier to just get a normal work visa from a job but I don't know much about that

[tulip temple]

Has anyone done an internship after graduation following by a full time position somewhere else?

[livid valley]

this is quite common

i know a number of people who couldnt find FT so they do intern and wait out

[tulip temple]

That’s good to know! What did they convince the companies that they would go to another semester of school? Since most companies only allow enrolled students to intern.

Just DMed you

[old basalt]

I’m curious about this as well

[livid valley]

They didnt rlly convince the companies, some companies are open to hiring graduate interns

for example binance dont rlly hire freshgrads as much, so its common to apply as intern and then convert half way

some quant companies like WQ are also open to graduated interns

oh but they applied in their final semester before gradutaton and the positions are usually super limited like only 1 or 2 at WQ

so before graduation apply as intern but only start interning after graduation

[sinful ridge]

Hey guys, would really like your help on this. I recently got an offer from Vanguard that's double the pay I got from ARM. The problem is, I already signed the ARM offer. What should I do? Email the Recruiter / Manager about wanting to leave? If so, do I be honest and say I got a better offer or say something else came up? Is there something I should look for in my contract that could prevent me from doing this? (Only found that I have to give a 4-week notice period). I truly feel bad for having to drop out of the offer, but at the same time, I would feel insane not to take Vanguard.

[near grove]

just tell them you are rescinding your acceptance for "personal reasons"

don't need to tell them why

and yes i'd email whoever sent you the offer

[sinful ridge]

Just leave it as personal reasons, or be more specific that it's not feasible for me to take the job or something?

Also thanks again for the advice

[near grove]

i would keep it vague, as long as you're not saying "the pay is bad and i got something better" it's fine

[sinful ridge]

Right haha, noted. Again, really appreciate the advice

[near grove]

No problem

[frail nymph]

If location is a factor also use that

[sinful ridge]

I could, but it was obvious it would have been Cambridge, so not sure if they'd believe that, I'll probably stick with the vague approach.

[craggy bridge]

Is it wrong at the end of an interview I ask the interviewer about work life balance? After asking that I felt I shouldn’t have asked that

[tidal nymph]

i did, and the person from morgan stanley was so sarcastic, as in "oh no work life balance here in morgan stanley is so good! they like to schedule meetings between 11am to 2pm, without thinking that some people eat lunch at normal hours"

XD

my brain was like "the shade lmao"

[near grove]

i asked the same at optiver and she told me "it's not that bad" lmfao

[livid valley]

optiver and hrt are pretty chill

to them doing overtime means u r not capable of finishing ur work within the 8 hours so thats a red flag

[near grove]

i've never heard anyone call optiver chill, i actually asked her about it because of how awful everyone says it is

[finite bay]

i already accepted an offer like 4 months back but now amazon is offering me their final for sde summer intern

lowkey im rusty af at LC u guys think its possible for me to push the final to new grad?

[near grove]

you can try but idk what the chances are

is this for london?

[finite bay]

ye

[near grove]

oh cool

[finite bay]

fr do u know if they are hiring new grads rn?

[near grove]

they are not

[finite bay]

just not sure what my chances are considering the freezes that are going on

[near grove]

im still sitting here with both oas done

[finite bay]

all TC's

?

[near grove]

Yep

[finite bay]

if u aint rejected keep hope G

cause i wasn't rejected and they finally got back to me

AFTER 6 MONTHS

💀

[near grove]

Yeah they started moving the waitlist and sending new oas and finals and stuff last week for interns

That's in us and Canada, you're the first uk person I've seen get progressed

But good to know that they're doing jt here too

[finite bay]

lowkey might try to push for new grad cause im not sure i can spare any time for LC again i gotta survive exams

[craggy bridge]

Lol, this is cool. I just felt it was wrong coz I couldn’t come up with a good question😅. Though the interviewer answered it gladly

[tidal nymph]

it think it's a good question, cause it kinda shows that you are interested in knowing more about the company culture and not just what they do

[near grove]

125

[finite bay]

anybody here know the like "average" difficulty of an amazon final

like is it known for being hard and difficult or similar to other places like msft

or is it just luck?

[near grove]

easy-med I think

lots of luck tho

u can get hards

[finite bay]

[craggy bridge]

Thanks for making me feel a bit better😅

[near grove]

For intern last year I got 2 hards

But I think I just got extra unlucky lol

[craggy bridge]

Hiring freeze at Amazon over?

[near grove]

For interns yeah

New grads are still frozen

[craggy bridge]

Crazy, I wonder why new grads are being left out

I already gave up after giving perfect OAs and mfs just ghosted

[near grove]

manifesting the surprise 1x30 invite in like 6 months when I'm about to start my new job

[craggy bridge]

I think this only applies to the US applicants no?

I mean the 1x30

The US seems to find things easy most times

[near grove]

No

[craggy bridge]

like for BLoomberg while London asks Sys design NYC doesn’t

[near grove]

Uk has 1x30 as well

[finite bay]

what u think my chances are tho

[near grove]

we all going to Amazon boys

[finite bay]

like lowkey dont think imma be able to interview

[near grove]

see you there

[finite bay]

POG

[near grove]

[finite bay]

but my exams are gonna be so bad

why they do this to me

i actually haven't checked the portal lol

i woke up to the email

i will check soon

i will let you know what my portal says

[cunning umbra]

so you’re telling me Amazon is starting to unfreeze?

been whitelisted since Nov

for intern

[finite bay]

keep hope people

id have to decide if they gave me an offer. lowkey not sure if i wanna do the final cause of my exams. part of me wants to just yolo and see how it goes but another part of me wants to see if i can push to new grad.

glad i got a response tho, im hyped af just dont know what to do ong

cause tbh i like gs a lot i care about finance so its hard to decide

thats what i have been thinking about. cause they must have teams for algo trading.

[near grove]

if you like money, gs pays more i think

or at least very similarly

[near grove]

you're playing with fire by going l1 with amazon lol

[near grove]

what r/csmajors does to an mf

[pearl ember]

What’s LP?

[near grove]

[cunning umbra]

is uiPath a good name in CV?

have you heard about them at least?

atm I have an offer from Softwire, and the salary is with 50% more then what uiPath can offer. Is it worth trying to go through uiPath’s interview process (I need to schedule my phone interview and I was thinking if I should keep going)

[near grove]

I havent heard of them

[cunning umbra]

they do RPA

with HQ in NY

[near grove]

What's the location of the internship

[cunning umbra]

Bucharest

[cunning umbra]

same with Softwire

[near grove]

Oh makes sense I was gonna say if it's london there's no way it's a good company, if softwire is paying 50% more lol

[cunning umbra]

indeed. for London softwire seems to have a low salary

but for Romania is pretty high for interns

they pay similar with Amazon

[near grove]

Yeah 30k in london

They pay 42k for new grad tho which is pretty good

[hidden wind]

How are your inboxes doing

[near grove]

Very dry

In the past month I've had like 2 rejections and 1 oa

[hidden wind]

Which OA?

[near grove]

Starling bank, its not even an oa really it's a take home

Recruiter screen before that as well I guess

[hidden wind]

The panorama is definitely not great

[near grove]

I applied to 22 internships yesterday so I'm hoping it'll be a bit more lively in the coming weeks lol

[hidden wind]

22? Where did you find that many

[near grove]

Indeed and glassdoor

There's lots of postings there that just don't show up on linkedin's search

[hidden wind]

"It is not that you're not great. It's just that you're not great enough for us."

[near grove]

I'm not interesting enough

[hardy canyon]

so rude lmfao

[cunning umbra]

blud

[near grove]

@marsh oasis when did u apply to adarga

Ok cool

I applied like 2 days ago 💀

[near grove]

[lost hedge]

What months does your internship hold. May to July?

[rocky scroll]

How brutal is the market rn for internationals?

[hidden wind]

Pretty brutal

[gray hull]

Anyone that applied to Visa Heard back?

[craggy bridge]

[hidden wind]

[strong peak]

got rejected yesterday

[near grove]

same

[strong peak]

Have you passed the VI?

[near grove]

Anyone interviewed at qualcomm?

[strong peak]

bro, when did you apply for starling bank?

[near grove]

november 23rd

[strong peak]

I applied for it at the beginning of December, got first round interview invitation on this Monday, and will interview tomorrow

[near grove]

and i did the first round last friday

its just a recruiter screen, they just ask questions like why did you apply to starling

[strong peak]

got it!

The interview is just about 15 min, I don't think they will ask me for many behavior questions

[near grove]

yeah

she just asked me why i applied and what projects have i done in the past, what languages have i used etc

and salary expectations

and then the rest of the time is her explaining the interview proces

[strong peak]

I did similar interviews before. They just asked me for 3 why questions, and then introduce their team and the recruitment process

[near grove]

the take home task is pretty cool, i submitted it 2 days ago

[strong peak]

Great! I will finish it this weekend.

bro, I followed your step to apply for QRT, interviewed this Monday, got rejected today

Have you moved to the technical round?

[near grove]

I havent even heard back after the oa yet

[strong peak]

Good luck!

[near grove]

Thanks

[gray hull]

Nah got rejected as well

I like that they gave feedback

Found it sorta helpful

[strong peak]

The feedback may be the same

My friend and I have the same feedback

[near grove]

What did ur feedback say

Same as this?

[strong peak]

same

[near grove]

Lol

I did think it was probably automated lol

[strong peak]

The feedback is suitable for all of us

[near grove]

I feel like I did everything except the first point, but oh well

[strong peak]

How could we know the payment system details for Visa?

[near grove]

Amazon moving the EU intern waitlist today

[gray hull]

Yup 🤣

[gray hull]

That’s what I was thinking lol

[near grove]

Anyone done mathworks oa?

Me scared 😭

[near grove]

the amazon eu disc

at least 2 people got offers, one in dublin and one in romania

[hidden wind]

Gosh, I really don't like mathlab

[near grove]

I've never used it lol

But dont worry, if i get the job I'll make matlab better

whoever's been ghost pinging me for the past 2 days i will find you one day

[near grove]

as you wish

i will burn them from the inside

[cunning umbra]

lol same

and I really thought about what answers I gave

blaming myself for not answering them the way they wanted

[pearl ember]

I have

But for hardware, pre Silicon validation

[near grove]

probably the hardest oa ive done

defo not getting the job lol

[junior bay]

I had the same experience with it about 4 months ago

[near grove]

Lol

I did technically solve 2/3 questions but they seem very strict on time complexity

[junior bay]

Well you done better than me, I solved 1st then saw that I wouldn't be able to solve the 3rd and quit out lol

[near grove]

Lmao

I'm just assuming I did solve it since I got like 6/15 passed and time limit exceeded for the rest hahah

[junior bay]

Oh fair enough haha

[strong peak]

Could you tell me when did you get the take home test after the recruiter interview?

[near grove]

Like 5 mins after

Lol

[strong peak]

thanks, I am still waiting for it

[near grove]

Rip

If you don't get it by monday send an email

Is your recruiter Teresa?

[strong peak]

Yes, I will do it on Monday

I see some people sharing their interview on Glassdoor got their take home test the day after

Starling Bank is similar to Wise

[strong peak]

How’s your interview for mako?

I think their hc is full, got ghosted.

[near grove]

I did the first round a couple weeks ago and I think it went well, they said there's gonna be a few weeks delay for the second round tho

But they are stack ranking so it all depends on how well the others do lol

[near grove]

weird question but did you get the first interview after bombing the oa too?

i just got invited to an interview to "talk about your qualifications" and im wondering if its auto or if that means i passed the oa? they sent at exactly 18:00

[junior bay]

No, I didn't submit unless it auto-submitted but they didn't send any emails after. I had a questionnaire thing before the OA but that was all.

[near grove]

oh ok

[junior bay]

I guess they were satisfied enough with your solutions. They probably knew the time limit exceeding was too strict

[near grove]

yea I was thinking I probably got 100% on the maths part as well

need to learn matlab now cause I told my recruiter I know basic matlab (I lied)

[junior bay]

Oh yea good point, I'm sure it's easy to pick up the basics. Gl with phone interview

[near grove]

thanku

[hidden wind]

I know a guy who did his thesis in MatLab. I have never seen him happy.

[tidal nymph]

imagine your thesis is about converting existing matlab package into python, and to do so, you have to understand the matlab code

[near grove]

you brought this upon yourself

[tidal nymph]

it wasnt written in the project ads, i was tricked into it

:<

[near grove]

:

[tidal nymph]

41 days left and the report hasn't been touched since background chapter

[near grove]

same lol

[tidal nymph]

and we cant get extension

[near grove]

cristina is pushing me to get started with testing rn but my app isn't even an app yet and won't be done for another 2 weeks at least

[tidal nymph]

is she your second marker??

[near grove]

yeah lol

[tidal nymph]

[near grove]

:(

she's nice to me but seems very serious and strict lol

[tidal nymph]

better than mine i guess, he doesn't seem to give a single f at my thing but said at the end of the presentation "im not sure about actual aim of your project, and how useful it is"

[near grove]

ahahahahh

[tidal nymph]

bruh she didnt want anyone to get above 80 in the essays for sepp... and marked down a few peeps that i gave above 70

but the fact that the avg is 65 is more scary ngl

[near grove]

that's just following the cms tbf

i will be happy with 60 in my diss lmao

[tidal nymph]

if i get 60 in it, i will just get 70 overall degree classification but i have a feeling i aint getting 60 lmao

if i dont get 70, my parents are going to disown me

[near grove]

i mean even high 60s is very good, less than 30% of people get over 70

I'm on a borderline 2:1 right now which is kinda scary lol

[tidal nymph]

go tell that to an asian parent

[tidal nymph]

between 2:2 and 2:1?

[near grove]

yeah

if I get a 2:1 this sem again I will get a 2:1

[near grove]

@strong peak you did gsa capital hackerrank right? how hard is it?

[strong peak]

I have done it about 2 weeks ago

GSA Capital test is about 4 leetcode questions and 5 computer science fundamental questions

[near grove]

oh yeah i just saw

that sounds like a lot for 75 mins

[strong peak]

The leetcode is easy to medium, but the time is really limited

It's not easy to pass all the test cases for 4 leetcode questions in such a short time

I passed all the test cases for 3 leetcode questions and 70% for the last one, and I am confident about the fundamental questions

still got rejected

[near grove]

lmaoo

i will do it tonight

i think they resume screen before the oa so i guess you need 100% to pass?

[strong peak]

same as what I thought

[near grove]

:(

[strong peak]

Good luck, fighting, and pass all of them !

[near grove]

thank you brother 💪

[near grove]

aced it with 25 min left

i think i got lucky with the questions

Any suggestions on taking auto loans with a decent credit score?? What would be the best option?

For those on OPT, did y’all try to renew F1 and how was the experience

[near grove]

companies respond before the deadline they set themselves challenge (impossible)

[cunning umbra]

Do your days of grace period reset after lay off?

Or do they continue from after graduation?

[hidden wind]

Do you guys have an opinion on neighborhoods from zone 2-3 which have a direct station to the Elizabeth line

[near grove]

lots of depressed middle aged bankers too

[near grove]

anyone apply to fundapps?

they sent me an email a couple days ago telling me will contact me again to schedule a call in a few weeks, which is a bit of a strange way to do it 🤔 but I ain't complaining. At least they're communicative

[gray hull]

none of the ones i applied to are communicating 💀

[near grove]

it was like that for me too for a while. but last week there was a big boost in responses and suddenly I have 5 interviews in a week

[frail nymph]

Had a bad experience with them. I applied and got rejected via Linkedin

And i mean the reecrutier dmed me on linkedin to reject me

[near grove]

hahahah thats amazing

[gray hull]

did you apply for PolyAi/Redgate?

[near grove]

I applied to polyai

[craggy bridge]

Does apprenticeship at Google count as professional swe experience? 🤔

[near grove]

It's probably not seen as equal to a normal job

But I don't think you'd get accepted with a cs degree anyway

[craggy bridge]

Ohh ok thanks

[hidden wind]

https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/news-releases/uscis-announces-premium-processing-new-online-filing-procedures-for-certain-f-1-students-seeking-opt

[tawdry field]

can you summarize this

[mellow sail]

Lmao ok so from my understanding, now u can pay $1500 for ur opt to get processed quickly ( < 30 days)

It’s hella expensive but it’s good we have an option now if we need to get it quickly

[tawdry field]

opt as in getting the EAD card?

[mellow sail]

Yep

[sage goblet]

This is great. Do you guys know the current opt processing time? My school told me it takes around 4-6 weeks but some friends told me it’s higher

[mellow sail]

Which usually takes 2-4 months

My friend recently got hers approved in 2 weeks

[tawdry field]

by paying 1.5

[mellow sail]

I think it was just longer in 2021-2022 because of covid and now it’s faster

No

She didnt use premium processing but still got approved after 2 weeks

[tawdry field]

1500 is still a lot

[sage goblet]

Atleast it’s an option

[mellow sail]

1500 is a lot but better than not being able to work because ur ead card arrives late

[tawdry field]

y'all have offers?

[mellow sail]

I have 1 but still looking

[tawdry field]

i have none

[mellow sail]

I feel like no one is hiring internationals right now

[sage goblet]

Yeah but I’m waiting on my school to confirm that I am graduating before I apply for opt

[tawdry field]

i graduate in 40 days

[mellow sail]

Wouldnt that be too late tho?

[tawdry field]

and the market rn is shit

[mellow sail]

School usually confirms after the final grades are out

[tawdry field]

if you have offers why you guys delaying gettting an EAD

do it asap tbh

[sage goblet]

I have heard it’s a lot of trouble if you apply for opt and don’t graduate

[mellow sail]

My current offer wants me to start in late may but im just afraid they are gonna rescind my offer

And i will be left with less time to look for jobs

[tawdry field]

which company is this

[mellow sail]

Jpmc

[tawdry field]

why do you think they might rescind

[sage goblet]

Layoffs

[mellow sail]

They normally dont hire internationals

[tawdry field]

well then how did you get the offer

[mellow sail]

but somehow gave me an offer

Idk

[tawdry field]

coz they verify status and stuff

[mellow sail]

Im still wondering lol

I didnt get into new grad role

[tawdry field]

oh i see

[mellow sail]

Also interviewing for veeva right now

They seem to be sponsoring

If u r doing masters

[sage goblet]

Gl 💯

[tawdry field]

are you in top 10 CS?

[mellow sail]

No not even close.. like top 30

[tawdry field]

USC?

BS or MS though?

[mellow sail]

MS. Not usc

R u also MS

Veeva doesnt sponsor for BS

[tawdry field]

yeah

MS

[mellow sail]

Kinda regret doing MS at this point

Spent too much money on it and the economy is so shit

[cunning umbra]

nice profile pic @mellow sail

[mellow sail]

omg hahaha lol

[tawdry field]

why guys shouting at each other

[cunning umbra]

actually we’re both terrified xD

[main canyon]

Anyone else got the rejection for Citi new grad today?

[rustic shuttle]

Hey any update on barclays technology analyst internships?

[hidden wind]

No one can tell for sure when the market will recover

Imo the first option is decent, you can apply to both NG and intern positions

NG would be optimal for sure, but an internships might open future return offers

If during the extra semester you're not getting anything, enroll into masters

But if you know for sure what masters you wanna do then you might want to take the second option

[hidden wind]

I would say so, doing masters might be better than doing pretty much nothing for a year

But it also depends on what you do during the gap

[near grove]

Same as above - in your situation I would do the extra semester and keep applying to both internships and new grad, also apply to a masters to start in january

And if you get a job then you can just cancel the masters

[charred sleet]

If I grad in July August can I still apply for fall internships?

[hidden wind]

If you don't say when you graduate and you sign before graduation i guess

[charred sleet]

is there a UK cscareers channel

[charred sleet]

secan u share this one

[gray hull]

Yo, anybody who applied for PolyAi heard anything back?

https://tenor.com/view/headache-stupid-people-oh-my-god-omg-oh-my-gosh-gif-22026951

[near grove]

me and @marsh oasis applied but none of us heard back

after the take home test

someone posted on linkedin that they got an offer, so i think we've been ghosted

[gray hull]

Damn

found an email i was gonna send them in my drafts

but i guess there's no point now lol

i might send it to ask for feedback maybe

what's that?

Honestly, if i find an organization i think is cool i might

better to work on open source stuff than sit around waiting for offers

hopefully it isn't as difficult as applying for internships lol

[winged lake]

nah it's way more work tbh

for the really popular orgs, you need to be active in the community

[gray hull]

to apply or when you get in?

[winged lake]

to get in

like there're hundreds (maybe thousands?) of proposals

and only a few got it

like last yr, llvm only had 5-6 gsoc projects approved

[gray hull]

wait, i must have read it wrong. Do you have to propose your own project?

[winged lake]

yes

they gave u an idea

then you propose what r u gonna do with it

timeline + how will you do it

• why ur a good fit

or you could come up with an original idea

ofc there're guidances but still it's competitive

[gray hull]

wow

have you applied before, or planning to?

[winged lake]

I'm applying this yr for the 1st time

doing it alongside my internship

[gray hull]

sound

hope it goes well man

[rocky scroll]

I got deferred master's CS admission to UIUC (Spring 24). Should I wait for it or just join fsu this fall?

[near grove]

reject

nice

[rocky scroll]

Why though

[strong peak]

GSA Capital？

Do you get any feedback from it?

[near grove]

Yeah gsa, they didn't give any feedback

[strong peak]

I think they probably have hired enough people, most of rejection are similar to this

[cunning umbra]

I need advice from you guys
Got admits from Rice University & Indiana University Bloomington For MS in Computer Science

Pros for Rice:

Great campus

Great Computer science department

Better alumni network? (maybe)

Cons for Rice:

Too expensive ($54000 for one-year tuition) so it will take longer to pay off the loan

Pros for IUB:

Way Cheaper than Rice

Larger Alumni network (because of more people)

Cons for IUB:

The location is Bloomington, so it will be harder to get jobs & internships in tech

If you have anything to add please tell me.
Which one would y'all choose

[hidden wind]

Rice

[cunning umbra]

could you tell me your reasons for choosing rice

[hidden wind]

I would say it is a better cs school and also more widely known

If the costs are not too concerning ofc

[cunning umbra]

Would you choose rice

even if the debt was around 85 thousand?

Compared to Indiana's 50 thousand

[cunning umbra]

Thats the thing I don't know if I should take debt to go to rice

Really confused

[hidden wind]

Is there any way to reduce it?

[near grove]

most people in this channel are not in america and probably dont know much about US unis so you might want to ask in a different channel

[cunning umbra]

nope

[cunning umbra]

Ok I will thanks

[near grove]

as a non-american i have heard of rice but not bloomington, i'm not sure if it's worth the extra 35k debt though

location doesn't matter that much for jobs, you can just apply for internships and jobs in other cities/states

[hidden wind]

Also try to look up which university has more people in big tech or a company you desire

[cunning umbra]

The number is around the same, However, the thing is that Total population at rice university is only around 5000 student total

At indiana the number is waay highter 36000

but I check on linkedin the employees at big tech from those two are kind of the same

[old basalt]

Worth extra 35k

@mellow sail Do you know if i have to fill out some kind of form for the govt or school?

I dont really see anything related to that online

[mellow sail]

no u r fine as long as u have a valid i-20. U can even travel outside the US and come back

[cinder locust]

I see. All i see from govt website is that if i leave the US, i cannot enter again if the semester doesnt start in less than 30days, so thats about the only limitation

Thanks

I feel like I'm being taxed even for breathing

Also I totally forgot about the type of plug in the UK and got ripped off for an adapter

A room in london costs the same or more than my entire 1 bed flat in edinburgh

[vivid coral]

I recently got a quote for a studio room all bills included for 2.4K 😂

I cried in poor

[near grove]

Lmfao

That's just wild 💀 realistically in london can live alone pretty central for like 1.5k rent excluding bills

[vivid coral]

Forgot to mention no room mates

[vivid coral]

Yeah it was Canary Wharf

Problem is i only need it For 3 months

All the short term places charge 80% more because of that

[near grove]

Oh yeah in canary wharf they'll just be taking advantage of rich interns at all the banks lmfao

My friend's meta housing was a nice place in canary wharf and I looked up the prices, they're insane

[vivid coral]

Wanna share? I am still searching

[near grove]

I'm still job hunting 💀💀

So I'm not sure if I'm going to london this summer yet

But if I do and you're still looking then sure

[vivid coral]

Nah I meant If you could share the location/name 🥺

Sorry for the misunderstand 😅

[vivid coral]

Ah you will find something! 👍🏽

[near grove]
