weak gazelle
#

For backend u better have lot of C++ exp

lapis tide

šŸ¤£

raw rampart
weak gazelle
#

wym šŸ¤£

#

My first team was C++ heavy and the posting looks like theyā€™re hiring for that

raw rampart
weak gazelle
#

But thereā€™s lots of other backend teams

#

Using other techs tacks

#

Tech stacks

lunar sandal
#

tic tacs

weak gazelle
#

I just think theyā€™re probably looking for C++ folk

oblique crater
#

i thought they loved rust or something

vivid fiber
weak gazelle
#

That would be a huge plus

#

If u have rust experience

vivid fiber
#

Me neither

#

I've never actually used C++

#

But I have had to migrate C++ code lmao

barren sinew
#

Whos everyone? I like C++

real zinc
#

Only lang I'm comfortable with is python HideThePain

barren sinew
#

Yea it's a weird skill - most companies don't use it but it seems like a lot of people stull value it

real zinc
#

C++ , C are mostly used in game dev and embedded systems?

barren sinew
#

Solving LC in C++ isn't that hard. I haven't ever felt at a disadvantage when compared to Python - except for string manipulation

#

Both those industries are pretty small compared to most dev jobs

lunar sandal
#

best I can do is vector<int> a(n0);

weak gazelle
worn trout
weak gazelle
#

Fintech loves C++

barren sinew
#

Yea there's a fair bit of companies that use it. It's still a great skill. Just that there's soo many more JS jobs out there

real zinc
#

Isn't GPU program like assembly level? Not sure just asking

barren sinew
#

I haven't ever felt disadvantaged not knowing JS but knowing C++. I just target diff jobs

lunar sandal
#

How r u in cs but donā€™t know js

#

Ah

weak gazelle
#

Wait u donā€™t know JS?

real zinc
#

All I know in Js is 5+3 gives 53

lunar sandal
#

FAX wtf is that about

#

The worst language to LC in

barren sinew
#

I did Computer Engineering so maybe that's why. Did embedded first coop, C++/Dev-ops dev 2nd. New grad was on an infra team and now general SWE doing Go

weak gazelle
#

Google!?

barren sinew
#

Nah. The Infra was Meta though

weak gazelle
#

nice

barren sinew
#

Although they used Python the most

real zinc
#

Ng at meta?

weak gazelle
#

Yea Meta recruiters really want C++

barren sinew
#

Yea briefly. Till I was laid off with the big wave šŸ˜¦

real zinc
#

Don't say you're searching for a job ...

barren sinew
#

Nah I'm employed. Thanks

weak gazelle
#

Guppy works at a small fintech startup next to Hudson River

lunar sandal
#

Help us get employed šŸ™‚

real zinc
barren sinew
#

Yea it's not all that different. You could learn pointers in less than a week. I think that's the thing most people struggle with

lunar sandal
#

I had to learn c++ to submit problems on cf

#

Xd

lapis tide
#

very reductive

barren sinew
#

I once did a Amazon OA in C thinking they wouldn't ask me DSA questions in that language. Big mistake, I had to build data structures before being able to use them

#

I didn't move forward

weak gazelle
#

C and C++ are very different

lunar sandal
#

did they ask u to build an AVL tree

weak gazelle
#

For example some ppl be like C/C++

#

Donā€™t recommend that cuz

#

That may throw some experienced hiring manager off

barren sinew
#

I've heard the same. People who really know C++ don't think of it like that

lunar sandal
#

I think this only matters for low level pos

lapis tide
#

sure but the reason something exists and how it's currently used isnt necessarily the same

barren sinew
weak gazelle
#

if you were looking for solutions to a problem in the two languages, optimal solutions in the two would almost always look very different

lunar sandal
#

thank you for the insight

teal remnant
#

Did anyone hear back from Goldman Sachs ?

#

Cisco after oa ?

lunar sandal
#

Still on ā€œ interview completed ā€œ

teal remnant
#

Do you know whatā€™s citi hiring process ?

#

Never got oa after they said I cleared resume screen

#

But I know people who got phone and final

barren sinew
#

I'm kind of suspect of this since I used to see like 10x the number of JS jobs compared to C++. Also how is scratch above Rust or Swift. Is this just basing it off of Google Searches?

teal remnant
#

Nope they send you email

#

But people already got final

#

So I think too late now

#

I cleared resume screen but got ghosted no oa wtf

#

Yeah

#

No the intern one

#

Idk about ft

#

I got an email from them

#

But never heard back from after

#

Bro said they will tell me next steps proceeds to ghost me for 2 week

#

Meanwhile people got phone gladge

#

Ainā€™t no way

#

Thatā€™s not how phone works

#

You schdule a time in advance

#

šŸ˜®

#

Well I fked up then

#

I didnā€™t get any call šŸ˜­

#

But why will the randomly call makes no sense

oblique crater
#

I still donā€™t know any JS pretty much

teal remnant
#

Ahh I missed the train then sadge

oblique crater
#

even though I made a full react front end I just stackover flowed and banged my head against the wall through it

teal remnant
#

Either citi is slow asf or I missed the call

#

Anyways we will see

@analog current just did the video interview, pretty chill

#

it is man, one of my answers was defs a bit all over the place but I ended up bring it together by the end lol

#

oh same dude

#

1st and 3rd went great

#

mine was about critical thinking in a hard problem ive solved

#

I tripped over myself answering because I couldnt tell how much technical detail I should go into lol

#

Thats good honestly, I overcomplicated it by talking about a tech problem in my internship lol

#

I defs need to get a standard response in my head

#

Also they said to dress professionally but I wore a tshirt lol

#

yolo im a dev

#

yep, exactly the same thing I did lol

#

I was just tired, defs gonna dress better if I end up moving on or get an interview with banks

Imagine if the tech workforce became 10x more efficient

#

and for example Amazon could build software 10x as fast

#

Theyā€™re not hiring 10x fewer

Theyā€™re building 10x software

And weā€™re nowhere near 10x gains in efficiency

Did you get veeva reject yet?

eternal fossil

i got a union find question
