[hot rapids]

https://www.levels.fyi/internships/Wealthsimple/Software-Engineer-Intern/

[real zinc]

yeah that's for microsoft prods?

[hot rapids]

I think there's quite a few $30+

[weak gazelle]

RBC doesn’t pay more than 30 to most ppl

[vernal sigil]

u tell them give me $32 or i leave

[real zinc]

000 never used azure

[real island]

Intel, AMD, RBC amplify, Mozzila, DropBox, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Nvidia, Uber

[lapis tide]

Uoft spotted

[weak gazelle]

Mozilla doesn’t count

[vernal sigil]

doordash

[vernal sigil]

[weak gazelle]

they believe that Canadians shouldn’t be paid as much as Americans

[real island]

Isn’t level USD tho

[weak gazelle]

[vernal sigil]

5000 housing lmao

[lapis tide]

Levels intern pay submission is stupid

[vernal sigil]

my rent in vancouver was 3k/mo with a roommate

[real island]

With a roommate 😭

[weak gazelle]

but that’s every US company

[lapis tide]

Bro balling

[weak gazelle]

funny why actually

Like literally doesn’t make sense

[lapis tide]

I think americans shouldnt be paid as much as canadians

[weak gazelle]

why pay Canadians lesser

[fickle lotus]

bro thats so excessive where tf do u live 💀

[vernal sigil]

in front of zon office

[lapis tide]

Mfs think col is lower in toronto than boise idaho

[real island]

Ikr

[hot rapids]

canadians are just offshore workers...

[fickle lotus]

ah that makes sense then

[weak gazelle]

Canadian avg engineering talent is > American avg engineering talent

Cuz of immigration

ok not necessarily but

[vernal sigil]

Ye but even if u live 30 minutes away youll pay 4k for a 2 bedroom so might as well ball out

[weak gazelle]

technically one can argue

[hot rapids]

yeah but why woudln't they just offshore to the source instead

[fickle lotus]

True true, also with zon pay fuck it

[weak gazelle]

Wym

[hot rapids]

If canadian avg engineering talen is greater bc of immigration, why wouldn't they just hire from the immgrants' home countries then, that's a fraction of CDN comp

[weak gazelle]

no

[hot rapids]

why even hire from canada

[weak gazelle]

cuz avg immigrant tech talent >> avg outsourced worker tech talent

[lapis tide]

Cheaper

[lapis tide]

Bro right shifted

[weak gazelle]

Native

As in

[lapis tide]

Indigenous

[weak gazelle]

No

Lmao

[lapis tide]

🫵

[weak gazelle]

Outsourced workers

[real island]

💀💀💀💀💀

[weak gazelle]

What is right shift

[tawny raptor]

Bit shift

[lapis tide]

Pierre poilievre

[weak gazelle]

Same reason why they wanna hire immigrants in the US

average immigrant tech worker in the US is a lot better than the avg tech worker in the immigrant’s country

Why is it so hard to phrase this

[lapis tide]

How about this

Good devs move

[weak gazelle]

yes

But

wrong

not true for most good devs

so

[lapis tide]

[weak gazelle]

There’s a lot more bad devs than good devs

so the avg thing may still make sense
Technically median

Tbh the chances of getting an offer rescinded from a well known company that is stable is really low

Meta 👉👈 what’s their intern process like in Canada?

[real island]

Fr

[normal jetty]

It’s mostly US students applying no ?

Maybe some Canadians /Mexicans

But I doubt a lot of ppl from around the world are applying ?

Bro most Canadian cs students don’t even know they can apply to us internships

[boreal sentinel]

[real island]

[lunar sandal]

See if I had an hour instead of 30 mins for the entire thing

Just complete skill issue.. OAs r gonna get harder I have to grind more time constrained scenarists

[broken whale]

100k+ pretty sure

[real island]

Referrals don’t really matter for MS

I got one too but I doubt it’s going to do anything

[hot rapids]

MS resume screen much more selective than Amazon for sure

Cuz it’s straight to phone

[real island]

Ye

Never heard back

[hot rapids]

I did a full time interview, but they ghosting me for internship roles 💀

[broken whale]

[lapis tide]

[broken whale]

[robust lotus]

finally

[tight gale]

Congratz

[hot rapids]

Just work on improving self and not envy others, all we can do 😔

There’s definitely quite a few Canadians who do get big tech first internship

[lunar sandal]

Yeah maybe in a pre 2022 economy

[barren sinew]

This isn't normal. It's probably just as likely as Canadians getting big tech for their first coop

[eternal fossil]

Deep genomics L came thru today at 2:55 pm

Applied Wednesday, by Friday L

[lunar sandal]

Welcome to the club

[hot rapids]

Dudes probably cracked af to get this

[lunar sandal]

DG can go fuck itself

[lunar sandal]

I like how the first thing we default to is “ cracked “

And not

“ this guy has connections “

what is “ cracked “ about someone with no internships

Luck is an overwhelmingly

Significant factor

Like just accept it

[hot rapids]

You don’t see their actual resume. Hackathons, projects, etc

[lunar sandal]

doesn’t matter

[normal jetty]

some ppl remove their earlier internships

once they get something good

to look more cracked

[lunar sandal]

like why does this sub thing cs job market is a meritocracy

is beyond me

[hot rapids]

Idk man, if someone won 3-4 hackathons, they might profile better than 1 meh internships

[lunar sandal]

Absolutely not.

[normal jetty]

Nah highkey Melona is right

Hackathon wins at good hackathons > shitty no name internship

[lunar sandal]

yeah because making a bunch of figma and XML with maybe a short script

Trumps actual industry exp yes

[hot rapids]

Recruiters look for X factors sometimes. Hundreds mfs got the same resume on here, 1-2 meh internships with same stack

[lunar sandal]

Hav e you guys even bothered to browse most hack the north GitHub’s ?

Like ever ?

[normal jetty]

"winner at hack the north, north america's largest hackathon (1600+ participants"

[hot rapids]

Crazy hackathon wins can be a distinguisher

[lunar sandal]

Have u ever seen the actual code

guessing no

[normal jetty]

recruiters dont look at code

most hackathon projects are ass cheeks coding wise

its abt how u sell it

[lunar sandal]

Yeah but a hackathon 2-3 day stint is not more valuable than an internship , esp in a market where it is difficult to attain the latter

I stand by that.

What year was this bro

[normal jetty]

Quality of internship matters alot more

[normal jetty]

this year

2023

[lunar sandal]

and what year is he

[normal jetty]

Im just saying Hackathon wins are really impressive if u can get them

and that Quality of internship matters (Quality over Quantity)

[lunar sandal]

I… disagree

[normal jetty]

always upgrade

I know ppl with 6 internships at mediocare canadian places

and it doesnt help them

[lunar sandal]

then they aren’t selling it hard enough

I can bring up counter examples too bro

[normal jetty]

each time u need to upgrade

[lunar sandal]

Doesn’t add anything to discussion

[normal jetty]

Its the general trend

[hot rapids]

If I’m larping as a recruiter for big N, I would rather pick a second year rockstar with lots of hackathon wins than someone 4th year with 1-2 internships at pretty meh places.

[normal jetty]

thats how waterloo is goated , each coop ppl tend to get better stuff

until they cali

[lunar sandal]

omg

The arguments presented to@me just now

Are so atrociously bad

[real island]

That’s why you aren’t a recruiter

💀

[lunar sandal]

that I’m not even gonna respond

how are y’all this grown with such shit takes

[teal remnant]

Ayo chill gib me job 🥲

[lunar sandal]

Enough to know hackathons get yo nothing.

[real island]

LMAO

Fr

[normal jetty]

Alright i give up

[lunar sandal]

Esp this 2nd year hthn vs 4th year internship holder like WHAT?

yeah please do lol

Horrible horrible advice

[normal jetty]

I wasnt arguing abt 4th year internship holder

i was saying shitty internships at nonames

like not tech companies even

[lunar sandal]

okay THAT

I aheee with

Lol

[normal jetty]

Cuz a htn win makes u stand out

[lunar sandal]

If it isn’t even tech

[real island]

LMAO that was just Idek how they came up with that one

[barren sinew]

Companies also sometimes base their evaluations relative to their year. They might be a super accomplished 1st year and Nvidia is trying to lock them in. They could still be worse than a 4th year with 2 internships, but there's lots of 4th years with 2 internships

[lunar sandal]

Happy weekend guys

don’t get too depressed

[lunar sandal]

This is true, and I wish every uni in the GTA enforced this

[vernal sigil]

My roommate got amazon as his first internship this summer

[lunar sandal]

Anything that’s not loo does not give a flying fuck

[fickle juniper]

I think ur accomplishments are less relevant than grad yr personally, unless ur like one of the best 2nd yrs on paper

[lunar sandal]

Ask him to refer me

[vernal sigil]

Referral useless

[fickle juniper]

Like companies prefer students closer to their grad date because the whole point is to convert interns to ft

[lunar sandal]

Gg

[normal jetty]

Unis with 4 month coop programs like Ryerson CS/Carleton enforces this,

Utsc

[lunar sandal]

Ah ye UTSC

[normal jetty]

but a large part is about the student

[lunar sandal]

But that’s in scarbz aint no way I’m going there

[fickle juniper]

If u just hired the best 2nd yrs

[normal jetty]

U could also do 4x3

[fickle juniper]

Ur probably not going to get many conversions 💀

[normal jetty]

@lunar sandal

for pey right?

[lunar sandal]

ye

[normal jetty]

utm

yeah

[lunar sandal]

wait u too?

[fickle juniper]

Unless ur like Jane Street or somewhere that’s hard to beat

[normal jetty]

no

[lunar sandal]

Gg

[normal jetty]

r u intl fiend ?

[lunar sandal]

Got me hyped up

++

[normal jetty]

cuz then u can't do internships on ur own right

[lunar sandal]

I can lol

But only summer

[normal jetty]

that sucks

[lunar sandal]

yep

Hard locked out of fall winterninternsips

[barren sinew]

This but not always. Some places that hire a ton will purposefully hire lower year students for specific roles. In my first coop I was the only 2nd yesr on a team of 4th year coops since I was the only one doing a testing project for half the time

[normal jetty]

u can transfer if u want

but uoft name brand might be more helpful

then having fall and winter

[lunar sandal]

where.. I’m alr in 3rd year it’s not worth it

Yeah that too

[normal jetty]

carleton/ryerson theyll take all ur credits

[lunar sandal]

They’ll make me a 10th year

[normal jetty]

cuz u had to put in so much effort

to make post

back in my day

[lunar sandal]

bro most kids here are too focused on getting an 85 on the next assignment

I don’t see the culture

[normal jetty]

yeah its hard af

if u go to an easy school u can grind lc all day

[fickle juniper]

I do agree with @hot rapids to some degree tho. Like a 4th yr with one internship and 4 hackathon wins imo is a more interesting candidate than a 4th yr with 4 meh internships

[lunar sandal]

EXACTLY

[normal jetty]

yes, that was my point too

[lunar sandal]

It was a comparison between 2nd year

[normal jetty]

it comes at the cost of having barely anyone

[lunar sandal]

And 4th year

[normal jetty]

barely anyone from ur school who made it

[fickle juniper]

That’s why I said “to some degree”

And not completely

[normal jetty]

so u start doubting if ur school is the reason for rejections

[barren sinew]

I think recruiters will take the gamble on the 2nd year with a bunch of hackathon wins sticking around even if they're not near grad. Especially since they might preform better than a 4th year with meh internships

But I'm not a recruiter so what do I know

[lunar sandal]

Bro RU has hella ppl at AMD

[normal jetty]

RU is goated

[lunar sandal]

I’m pretty sure MORE 2nd years at RU got summer gigs than UofT for this summer

[normal jetty]

everyone from my highschool

is at amd

[lunar sandal]

Yeppppoo

[normal jetty]

cuz of RU pipeline

[lunar sandal]

Give me AMD please I will do QA bitch work for 16 months

ow shiet

What’s conversion rate for ft

[normal jetty]

its not swe related usualy

like c++ testing

[frosty axle]

terrible this year

[normal jetty]

pretty high i think

oh shit rlly

[frosty axle]

but previous years it was really high

yeah none of the interns in my team got converted

[normal jetty]

Full time pays there bare apparently

[frosty axle]

yeah its solid starting out

my recruiter was saying they might lower it this year tho to adjust for market

[broken whale]

bruh

[real zinc]

at this point all I want is a job

[hot rapids]

Maybe I just wait for fall, summer is too competitive

[prime osprey]

fall has limited jobs tho so i feel competition is the same

[lunar sandal]

0 >= 0 so technically ur right

[weak gazelle]

= != >

[vernal sigil]

more is > so technically youre wrong 🤓

acktchually its "you're" so ur wrong

[lunar sandal]

never knew messi went ahead and copped a PhD in pure math

[azure spire]

what school is RU?

[hot rapids]

maybe rutgers

[lunar sandal]

Reykjavik University, Iceland

[simple python]

we have rutgers in canada?

[weak gazelle]

imagine having that on your front page

[hot rapids]

there used to be Ryerson University, but now they are TMU

[lunar sandal]

UTM?

[lunar sandal]

I see Mozilla on pey

[real island]
