[eternal fossil]

i cant move to kanata

[robust nest]

beggars cant be choosers tho

just get a shitbox

to drive from centre-ville or sandy hill

fuck living in kanata

[eternal fossil]

preacchhh bro but in the long run its not worth it, im gonna be bored and gonna hate having to exist in a SHITTY city solely for work

i much rather continue leetcoding and doing sumn

[robust nest]

i'd say take it for a year

it's just a year

[eternal fossil]

Ok I’ll sleep on it

[steel escarp]

how about going to alberta 👀

[eternal fossil]

I wouldn’t mind that tbh

I like alberta

[steel escarp]

i saw there are plenty of places hiring in alberta

idk about the pay tho

[eternal fossil]

Kanata is gonna eat my soul

[steel escarp]

i dont really need a fun place 🤣

i'll just pay league after works

and prob i need some asian restaurants around

thats enough for me

[eternal fossil]

Damn

[eternal fossil]

That would be pretty good

[steel escarp]

yeee im kinda boring loool

[robust nest]

i wfh in alberta... but i'd rather wfh in downtown ottawa

[steel escarp]

sounds like u live in deadmonton

[robust nest]

fk edmonton

lol

[eternal fossil]

I wanna wfh from alberts too

Alberta

no 3 days a week in kanata

[robust nest]

i still live with the fam

kinda funny since the fam doesn't want me to leave

but the lebanese places are top notch

[steel escarp]

i mean im not that picky in term of food

🤣

i can't cook anyway so 🤷‍♂️

[eternal fossil]

I think I have my answer

[robust nest]

to the US?

[eternal fossil]

Pain

[robust nest]

iPho was a pretty good place to eat

[steel escarp]

whats ur answer 👀

can i copy?

[robust nest]

how tf is everyone getting these cracked opportunities

[eternal fossil]

Damn

[eternal fossil]

Probably no to blackberry interview all together

Even tho I’d have the best chance of getting an offer

[steel escarp]

just give it a shot

LOOL

worst case u can have a backup plan

or u can use bb to negotiate the salary

who knows 🤷‍♂️

[echo latch]

gm

[echo latch]

I said it a couple messages before that one

[dawn tusk]

Ohh I thought you were talking about specific teams😅

[normal jetty]

Ottawa isn’t that bad

Apple poaches from QNX bc of apple car play too

Honestly when I lived in Toronto I didn’t do anything there either so it got boring as well

[eternal fossil]

So what you’re saying is

I should go there

[mental monolith]

Has canada started hiring? For smaller companies

I check every 2-3 days and haven't found too many of then

[eternal fossil]

Where ru checking

[mental monolith]

Linkedin for the most part, this server

Sadly i can only apply to canada positions due to visa reasons (intl student, wanna get PR)

So i had to skip alot of US postings that dont offer remote

[echo latch]

Canada starts hiring 4 months before the szn usually

For internships

[mental monolith]

Oh should've clarified

It's for FT

I know the market isnt great but can't keep blaming that

Still gotta pay rent somehow

[worldly ridge]

companies hire all year round for FT, november and december is slow season for hiring though

[fickle lotus]

I just started LC rn

[mental monolith]

i see

[fickle lotus]

Goal is to be ready-ish by Jan

[mental monolith]

yeah i'm not panicking just yet, still have some $ saved up from previous coop

have like maybe 5 months before i go homeless

hopefully more postings after new year?

[fickle lotus]

That's the general consensus on here, yes

For Canada especially

[mental monolith]

can't help but kick myself ngl

could've should've done better etc etc (during coop)

[mental monolith]

alright then

[worldly ridge]

dont be hard on urself man, no one coudlve predicted this economy

[mental monolith]

yeah u right

[worldly ridge]

uve done ur best if u did ur internships

[mental monolith]

just gotta keep trying

[echo latch]

depending on new budgets

[mental monolith]

these days i just apply to whatever i see that's half decent

3-5 jobs every 2 days

haven't found that many postings actually

[worldly ridge]

is it 3 to 5 new job listings very 2 days now?

or is that just the # ur applying

[eternal fossil]

You graduated ?

[mental monolith]

oh just the number of stuff i apply to

[worldly ridge]

oo ok

[mental monolith]

granted i havent spent that much time into applying, really bogged down from school work rn

[eternal fossil]

you gotta have proper filters on LinkedIn and you gotta go down to page 20 and actually carefully read descriptions

There are some out there with 0-2 yoe entry level jobs

[mental monolith]

but it's legitimately harder than my last coop search

[mental monolith]

yeah i should spend more time into this

haven't been able to lately

[eternal fossil]

Final year is one of the hardest times lol

[mental monolith]

done this dec, officially grad coming spring

[eternal fossil]

You’ll get it bro no worries

[mental monolith]

i usually put start may 2023 though, have a few friends who didn't get their letter of completion until like month before official grad

i was thinking i could say i start work at feb but there's always the chance i don't have the letter yet

[mental monolith]

thanks dude

oh yeah got ebay OA, first one since pltr like mid september lmao

[eternal fossil]

For applying you don’t have to be so honest

Just put down may 2023

And when you get to the offer part and start date

You can negotiate an earlier start date

[mental monolith]

ah gotchu

i'll keep that in mind

thanks guys!

i'll just put down may 2023 then

[eternal fossil]

Yeah because some applications are annoying with grad dates and you wanna open yourself up to those nifty ones that require grad date to be exact

One of those annoying ones is RBI

[mental monolith]

hmmm okok i'll remember that

thank u

[storm stream]

where/how you searching? linkein is spammy af

[mental monolith]

these days I'd say it's mostly just browsing linkedin, filtering by location (canada) and "within last week"

what do you suggest instead?

[storm stream]

I'm searching linkedin too

"new grad software"

it's all doodoo

[woeful mirage]

Honestly I think LinkedIn and Indeed are fine. The competition is intense regardless of which job boards you use.

[oak horizon]

Has anyone heard back after the Goldman Toronto Hirevue? What was your timeline?

[eternal fossil]

guys wish me luck

blackberry still wants to talk to me

even after i told them i dont wanan move

Any of you have experience with working in America(intern or job)?

I don’t wanna be stuck here knowing how much better Americans get paid.

[mental monolith]

what is wrong with me man

2 easy 2 meds

i did the 2 meds, missed some hidden marks from one of the meds

but i took so much time on one of the easy questions

super simple array manipulation but it was so verbose

"look at this video to understand how the algo works!"

[tight gale]

[steel escarp]

its fine lol happens all the time

i heard ebay us gave interviews for 700 so 🙏

[mental monolith]

it was literally q2 that took me so much time

ah well

[steel escarp]

unfortunate man

[lunar sandal]

i havent applied ebay yet

did the OA have any DP

if so i'ma just not apply 2nd year cs skillcap

[drifting shore]

It’s gca

[lunar sandal]

what does that mean

greedy and constructive algorithms?

[drifting shore]

https://github.com/Leader-board/OA-and-Interviews/blob/main/Online Assessments.md

hmm

yeah for the Square OA i had no fucking idea how to do q3 codesignal

couldn't even brute force it in less than O(infinity) xd

[eternal fossil]

Who up feelin melancholic

[eternal fossil]

I’m so tired but I’m just over it

[lunar sandal]

i spent the semester applying and prepping only to fuck my grades and no internship (so far) lined up 4 summer

[mental monolith]

thats kinda yikes

dont blame the lack of demand? damn

[mental monolith]

cant even apply to outside canada if i wanna try applying for PR man

[lunar sandal]

Didn’t they remove this

If u graduate from a 4 yr program u can directly go for the PR application once u grad

I heard they changed the rules

[mental monolith]

oh i'll need to ask around then

i mean i still apply to US positions regardless, with hopes that i can negotiate on final round or whatever

i still apply

but so far i didnt even get OAs from them so :\

[woeful mirage]

Are you a us pr/citizen?

[mental monolith]

nah, from SEA

i wish tho

[woeful mirage]

Then how can you work for a company in the states?

They don't have enough visas for intl students in the us, and worse for overseas applicants.

[midnight vector]

where did u read this? You def need post grad work experience to get it

[mental monolith]

by asking them to hopefully allow me to work remote in canada

i mean it's hopeful thinking i know

but i still try regardless

who knows

[woeful mirage]

I see

For the ebay oa, do you need to apply first before having a link to the oa? I just wanna do the oa to test myself lol.

Actually I always thought ebay was like yahoo which is very obsolete and dying. I didn't think of them as a tech employer. 😂

[midnight vector]

yeah

[mental monolith]

Yea, got it the day after

[woeful mirage]

Maybe the province he is in has a higher requirement for immigration.

Actually pretty mid

Had to click on it to believe it

[fickle juniper]

I actually think it pretty good for showcasing his experiences/credentials. Pretty seamless on my tiny phone. Problem is this is the wrong place to post

[fickle lotus]

This is a discord for interns/new grads looking for jobs. Not the place to be looking for work as an experienced developer.

[oak horizon]

everyone calling the site mid didn't see he's only 6 years old. insane

[fickle juniper]

"Mid Site" is constructive?

"Mid Site" + actual constructive feedback = constructive criticism my guy

[tired mica]

if you're going to ping everyone in a server trying to advertise your services, you better have something really good to show for it

[fickle juniper]

I think aesthetically its not great so probably right itd be hard to attract clients

[tired mica]

Shouldn't be posted in this server at all

[fickle juniper]

Yeah thats the problem imo

Oh okay I misunderstood

the website does the job imo but yeah it’s not mind blowing or anything

[fickle juniper]

yeah am not surprised that it's bad

tho from what I hear the rate for local canadian companies is still good

[ocean trellis]

How solid would be a MasterCard offer?
Should I keep interviewing at same pace?(provided I get the callbacks)

[vivid fiber]

Compared to what?

Mastercard is pretty solid imo

[ocean trellis]

In general but also compared to Morningstar.

[dark lintel]

Just realized, as a international student studying in Canada with a Chinese citizenship, it's almost impossible to work in US after graduation

What jobs are open in Canada I'm lost, literally not that many

[frozen brook]

there is a decent amount i think, just like.. not as much as US

https://github.com/jenndryden/Canadian-Tech-Internships-Summer-2023

yeah

[steel escarp]

Usually banks love them

[oak horizon]

i had the hirevue but was wondering about the timeline after that...only have seen other ppl talk about US offices

[steel escarp]

Usually hirevue is auto so it will be prob resume screen after that

[oak horizon]

nah for GS its OA > resume screen > hirevue

[steel escarp]

300-400?

[steel escarp]

Damn thats good

[errant field]

2*45 final after hirevue

also, they resume screen after hirevue as well I think

Oh yeah most of the ones I have gotten from these types of repos :)

Except bank stuff which aren't open

My list to search isn't really open positions, more so the ones I need to scrape in january

When they are open, sure I can contribute!

[soft hamlet]

I'm not from Queen's tho 😔

Also guys if y'all wanna meet up at CUSEC lmk!

[vivid fiber]

Any1 can contribute

[lunar sandal]

ah

smart man

[soft hamlet]

Anyone going to CUSEC this year?

[real storm]

this is awesome, are these companies that all have new grad?

cause its going to be a long night for me if it is

[vivid fiber]

Nah

Companies that i may try reachin out to

[real storm]

ah gotcha

[mental monolith]

do we have a github equivalent of that one for newgrad 2023, but specifically canada?

[ocean trellis]

Does anyone know if MasterCard Vancouver allows remote work for new grads?

[boreal sentinel]

fake news
source: trust me bro, we are a family

[vivid fiber]

b da change u wana c

[brave bison]

What kinda money are you guys makin in BC

[placid dawn]

LETS GO SPAIN

[brave bison]

I saw a posting for a Indigenous company in downtown Van that pays <50k for fullstack dev work lol (plus DBA tasks)

[placid dawn]

incoming intern im expecting -24$

waiting for backg check before i get offer

[brave bison]

Nice nice

Sounds like you landed

Mind I ask where?

[fickle lotus]

I think average for associate (i.e. entry) software engineer is 65k

You can get up to 80-90k with the better companies, and ofc 100k+ with the big bois

[brave bison]

Ah that's good to know, thanks!

I'm at Save-On making ~65 as a lvl1, so it sounds like I'm on par for now

[fickle lotus]

Yeah that's fairly typical for tech at non-tech companies

If you're open to it, you can job hop to the States after a couple of years for a big salary bump

[brave bison]

I'm open to it, but my SO is not :/

I'll just hop around here

[fickle lotus]

Ah that's unfortunate

Yeah hopping around here works too but ofc way less openings

[brave bison]

Ya

Thinking once I get some exp I'll have some leverage

[fickle lotus]

For sure

You're already over the biggest barrier i.e. getting a new grad job

[brave bison]

Woop woop!

[fickle juniper]

I think that numbers a bit outdated, comp went up a lot the last year and a bit

Even SAP u can get like 130k now afaik

[tight gale]

Some companies you can check out are fortinet SAP a thinking ape

[brave bison]

SAP is tech tho, I think that number would go in the big boi category

[tight gale]

sap feels more like mid boi imo

[fickle juniper]

SAP used to be like 80-90k for new grad, defs not six figs

But Ik someone got 130k in the last yr

Maybe average hasn’t gone up that much but I’ll bet it’s higher than 65k cuz I remember hearing it was around there before last yr

[brave bison]

In any case, I'm happy to even have a relevant job in this market, and collecting exp

[fickle juniper]

For sure lots of ppl would trade positions with u for any dev exp

[tight gale]

Yea job > no job for sure

[fickle lotus]

Trust me, I'd switch positions with you in a heartbeat

Just need a job so I can move out asap

[tight gale]

Same

He has an SO

[fickle lotus]

new grad job vs. SO

[brave bison]

LOL

[fickle lotus]

the comp sci student dilemma

[fickle juniper]

Trade zon for SO 😮

In this economy? Nahhhh

[tight gale]

Sugar momma SO

[fickle juniper]

Best of both worlds

[glossy condor]

just got an interview invite from bell.... a full 85 days after i applied

i accepted a position like, 40 days ago

[dark lintel]

out of topic but bell's application website is just arts

never seen something like that

[hot rapids]

Wow that’s crazy, is that TC or just cash?

[fickle juniper]

TC

[hot rapids]

I feel like you’d probably expect $80-90k cash from sap as a new grad

But that $130k TC is still crazy

[soft hamlet]

:o

I was given the okay on $24 for a remote startup

[brave bison]

grats!

[soft hamlet]

tyty

I'm in Ontario tho so cost of living is lower 😎

[brave bison]

DT Toronto can be just as bad so I hear

But areas like London, sure

[eternal fossil]

[bold crystal]

heard that most canadian companies haven't opened their applications for the summer, does anyoone have any insight on this?

[lunar sandal]

uhhh that is not entirely true

actually nvm that is

[fickle juniper]

In general they open Dec/Jan or a bit later in Canada for summer, save for a few

[untold nebula]

some bigger companies already have, but yeah that's generally true

[bold crystal]

How has the internship grind been looking for u guys

I started pretty late and my CS friends are telling me winter is closed/december is the worst time to apply

[untold nebula]

worst time to apply for what?

for summer roles?

[lunar sandal]

winter roles

because winter term is starting.

[untold nebula]

ye its late for winter, but there's still a chance to get job for winter
generally you should start applying 4 months before the date you wanna start an internship

[placid dawn]

anyone know about FSWEP

i got an offer but idk if to take

their pay is peanuts

quit noname startup for it?

thing is the gov job is more like IT

for FSWEP?

bru same ill die not knowing why my current boss hired me lol

[vivid fiber]

Yoooo?!??!

[uncut hornet]

[tight gale]

[eternal fossil]

im bout to eat enchiladas all day

[worldly ridge]

[eternal fossil]

[analog current]

yo hows cisco interview difficulty?

and how much do they usually pay?

[eternal fossil]

after i apply to mexico and get an offer and im standing by the enchilada man on the side street

[fickle lotus]

goated strat

[gloomy nymph]

It’s even worse there

[eternal fossil]

theres no winning is there

[real storm]

tbh i just filled out my profile to the max and I guess they liked it

[real storm]

yo u got link tho

[dark lintel]

did you got an interview with ebay?

[real storm]

GCA no interveiw yet

[dark lintel]

oh icic

I think that's kind of a scam

I got that "EBAY expressed interest" on my ripplematch

[real storm]

they basically said the GCA is just a formality

[dark lintel]

buut never interview

what is GCA?

[real storm]

yeah, its weird cause they said I should focus specifically on the interivew aspect of it

went so far as to tell me the process and all that

[real storm]

codesignal

[dark lintel]

oh icic

that's sounds promising

gl

[real storm]

yeah but that was like a couple weeks ago

so im just waiting to hear back

[mental monolith]

my gca WAS ass (715) and i havent heard back from them, not even rejection

so maybe just wait

[ocean trellis]

I thought eBay GCA is auto
I got it the next day I applied
No response after that from them.

[mental monolith]

i saw someone doing !process resume reject

i have no idea

i thought it's auto as well, got it the next morning after i applied

[eternal fossil]

its not auto

i never got mine

[ocean trellis]

Oh I see
But even after completing the GCA I haven't heard anything from them.

[eternal fossil]

what score

[ocean trellis]

I got a 814

[eternal fossil]

yeah its ebays fault lol

theyre probably backed up

[ocean trellis]

Yeah
I don't think anyone has actually heard back from them.

[steel escarp]

Ngl i think company will prob save hc for next year to see what will happen

I dont expect ebay to reply anytime soon

[fickle lotus]

GG

[eternal fossil]

ya

its a regular brain strat

also what makes them feel inclined to hire juniors

when theres an abundance of intermediates and seniors rn

if i had 5 brain cells as an HR person in ebay id scoop them

[fickle lotus]

ya we're a burden even in normal times, basically a money drain compared to experienced devs

that's why it was funny reading ppl outraged in the Google ng server

"how could they do this"

Like bro, ng is a dime a dozen

[eternal fossil]

big sadge

[fickle lotus]

At least co-op students get subsidized by the government

We get nothing 😦

[sour violet]

has anyone had experience with getting a TN visa before convocation/officially graduating?

[eternal fossil]

the amount they'd spend to train the junior can be used to make a fatter TC for intermediate/senior right?

junior time to become useful is on the longer side

yeah thats what we're seeing now

which succcccks

[steel escarp]

Ye lol

[fickle lotus]

Do I apply to Neo Financial lol

Been reading the memes about em here

[steel escarp]

Just apply

They pay 70k ng

[fickle lotus]

Ight we moving to Calgary

[steel escarp]

Got rejected from them with 12 month coop and 4 month internship

For a junior position

Bar is high

[fickle lotus]

Damn everyone's picky nowadays

[real storm]

dont think its auto

i think some people got rejected from ebay for resume

i think they're probably just filtering through the resumes now since they posted the cad opportunities last week

[eternal fossil]

i think i might make another account and apply again with that

im gonna treat this big company job postings as a raffle

i wanna get an OA

how many entries can i get in this raffle

[ocean trellis]

Well fingers crossed
Hopefully someone will hear back

[real storm]

praying for all my canadian homies to make it

anyone interview with ontario teachers pension plan?

[ocean trellis]

Anyone planning to join MasterCard Vancouver?

[ocean trellis]

Any discord server for new grads?

I pray you get one too

[fickle lotus]

Based

I didn't make it past Pymetrics sadge

[eternal fossil]

i did their stupid hirevue crap

did you make it past

[real storm]

just did it today, wondering what its like

process wise

[eternal fossil]

i did it eons ago

i did it for two of their roles

hirevue is default to receive

[real storm]

oh shit bruh

default to receive? yeah i did it within the 48 hours

hoping we hear back then, maybe they processing

[eternal fossil]

i doubt it

mozilla you will learn a lot

[vivid fiber]

Mozilla

[fickle lotus]

Hands down Mozilla

Way cooler than IBM

I would still do the interview btw

For practice

[tight gale]

mozilla

[placid dawn]

some mfs living life in ez mode

[tight gale]

[fickle lotus]

[eternal fossil]

so much potential

[steel escarp]

[placid dawn]

anyone ever heard from interac

[sullen crater]

No Caroline, I have not

[fickle juniper]

Yeah, I heard back recently actually

Got an email

That my e-transfer went thru

Is Mozilla really that much better? I feel like I’d take whatever pays more or depending on the team

[vivid fiber]

Well if you get a lame team at Mozilla I would maybe consider IBM

But imo Mozilla has stronger eng cred

Also the work seems cooler

But certain teams at IBM may b bettr

[fickle juniper]

Ohh icic

[severe jay]

Has anyone has the technical interview with Konrad for new grad software dev?

[eternal fossil]

goated

[steel escarp]

Doesnt mozilla mainly use cpp for their product?

Yeeee it sounds more fun than ibm tech

[fickle juniper]

Wait that sounds sick then

Also if ur into web stuff this is cool

[candid oxide]

Did Mozilla have a posting?

[oblique crater]

gn

[fickle lotus]

Damn that's lit, nice

[shy phoenix]

Mainly rust damnnn

Mozilla is goals

[vivid fiber]

Damn doin Rust at Mozilla is prob 1 of da best places to use it lol

@weak gazelle I'd def go Mozilla

Why 😭

[sullen crater]

I refuse to work for them out of principle. They're the reason we all have to file taxes every year, when for the vast majority of us, it's completely unnecessary.

[fickle lotus]

[steel escarp]

i think intuit is a good place to work but idk about their recruiting process

its kinda rng

just put on resume: "Will sacrifice morals for $$$"

[tight gale]

Morals dont pay rent

Only good for online arguaments

[fickle lotus]

Tfw when companies ask why u wanna

[steel escarp]

that's what u thought

[real storm]

Anyone hear back from bmo yet

[sullen crater]

It's not even about morals, it's just pure stupidity. Imagine the collective hours we all spend filling out these forms with info the IRS or CRA already have. It's such a contrived business.

[real storm]

Ive done three internships and im literally DYIN of thirst to hear back from these mf companies

[steel escarp]

ur doing pey next year?

unemployment is waiting for me

just curious y u chose pey over 4 months internship?

just a case but what would happen if u ditch mozilla after 4 months there 👀

what if u get google summer

👀

40 hrs google 40 hrs mozilla

80 hr work week 🤣

when u start mozilla?

summer?

okay

what if

zon summer google fall?

👀

what if

u ask mozilla to let u start in jan

and ditch them end of april

so u have mozilla -> zon -> google

that's just a scenario

possible

are u intl in canada?

or canadian

intl can work ft during school next year

ditch pey

3 courses + work

sounds bad but 👀

possible

just an option

ikr

the workaholic steven planning to do 5 courses + internship

right? @timid tartan

👀

i think so

nono

u gotta do 3

min is 3 courses to maintain ft status

unless uoft is different

that's

how about 2 ft remote jobs and 5 courses 👀

to be clear im not promoting the workaholic culture

[fickle lotus]

I did 16 months at Red Hat for the same reasons
