[ebon rivet]

Lol contacted the manager of my intern role, and he told me to wait untill January so the budget can be approved.
I d say guys that the chances are very low to get smtg in December

[zenith eagle]

[timid tartan]

Canada and jobs can never be on the same sentence

[sly kindle]

Yeah I’m praying so hard that my old manager says something in janua ru

They don’t have budget to hire rn

It’s in Montreal too, literally my favourite city ever

I went all throughout Europe this summer, and got Accidently stuck in Montreal because of a missed flight for 4 days

Unironically my two favourite places were Amsterdam and Montreal, both equal

[ebon rivet]

[lapis tide]

[boreal sentinel]

2069 is gonna be amazing

[turbid crater]

Did anyone who completed the wayfair oa hear back ?

[hot rapids]

[drifting shore]

About two weeks ago

Damn, at least you can connect during the meet and greet

[drifting shore]

[turbid crater]

They said 10 business days

So I’m waiting for next week

[drifting shore]

I’m only going to the event if they send me the interview invite before that

[turbid crater]

That’s Fair, it’s by my office so I’ll just go at 4

[hot rapids]

[tough knot]

💀

[turbid crater]

Q1 was a cunt

Was it an event question?

[drifting shore]

yea

[turbid crater]

Like a stack

[drifting shore]

[turbid crater]

Yeah that one was the hardest even tho I passed all test

[drifting shore]

u got a few more test cases than me

😔

[turbid crater]

Don’t worry it’s coming

[short robin]

zon is hiring??

[fossil field]

r u srs or trolling?

[candid oxide]

ya they’re giving intern oas

[fossil field]

doesnt mean they hiring lmao

most companies give oas just to say they are hiring etc but not really

also for goodness sakes why tf are you guys applying to fanng, microsoft etc. I bet most of yall barely know oop. Please for goodness sakes apply to smaller to mid companies and even local ones

[candid oxide]

☠️☠️☠️

barely know oop 😭😭😭

[drifting shore]

Bros gatekeeper

[short robin]

oh true guesss

i got oa lol

[fossil field]

not kidding kid when i was 4th year (like 5 months ago) didnt understand encapsulation and the concept of a class

[fossil field]

bro has a job while yall are jobless

[lapis tide]

definition of projecting

[fossil field]

just trying to give real world advice

[fossil field]

ngl tho doesnt matter what u say im still gonna like u cause minionnnnn

[lapis tide]

[vivid fiber]

This is insanely rude

[vivid fiber]

Also knowing OOP is definitely not important to get hired lmao

[vivid fiber]

This is just unhelpful doomerism

[fossil field]

ur kidding right?

its real world advice. stop trying to get your dream job now and get any job in tech to get your foot in the door. If you dont know oop then your education has failed you. Youre in the real world now and get used to it.

[vivid fiber]

I'm not

You should still apply to FAANG

And big tech

[fossil field]

personally ive seen so many people applying getting their hopes up and nothing happening

[vivid fiber]

But you should apply to smaller companies as well lol

[candid oxide]

Just because it’s unlikely doesn’t mean you shouldn’t apply

[vivid fiber]

^

[candid oxide]

You should still have aspirations but just keep your expectations in check

[vivid fiber]

Yeah if it's a 0.1% chance at a 100k+ job

[candid oxide]

Also if you’re applying anyways most big tech company apps take like 10 seconds max

[hot rapids]

is this a copypasta

[fossil field]

sure sure, but if you want a job dont think youll get it by clicking apply on linkedin

[vivid fiber]

Why would u not apply

[vivid fiber]

Ok, then say that

[lapis tide]

now it is

[fossil field]

uh oh

[vivid fiber]

Don't criticize people for applying entirely lol

[simple python]

bro got job then 5 days later shittin on other ppl lmfao

[fossil field]

for sure im not trying to

[simple python]

for hwhat

[lapis tide]

also for goodness sakes why tf are you guys applying to fanng, microsoft etc. I bet most of yall barely know oop. Please for goodness sakes apply to smaller to mid companies and even local ones

[simple python]

also for goodness sakes why tf are you guys applying to fanng, microsoft etc. I bet most of yall barely know oop. Please for goodness sakes apply to smaller to mid companies and even local ones

[vivid fiber]

Ok, your original response seemed very bitter

[candid oxide]

also for goodness sakes why tf are you guys applying to fanng, microsoft etc. I bet most of yall barely know oop. Please for goodness sakes apply to smaller to mid companies and even local ones

[fossil field]

yea its just something i wish i heard when i was applying

especially in canada tbh, us is a different story but canada is fuckeeddddd

[candid oxide]

There’s a lot better ways to word things than how you usually do lol

[fossil field]

nah its a reality check

[candid oxide]

Well I’m sure everybody here is already facing the reality of the market

[vivid fiber]

It's not a reality check lol

It takes a few minutes to apply

It's worth that small effoet

If you said

Don't just apply to FAANG without polishing your resume

Then I'd agree

[fossil field]

i applied to 1200 places in the spam of 2.5 months. barely any replies and i have 2 internships

and i realized and seen that you wont get a job through cold applying

connections is definetly #1 way to get a job in todays market

and not just spamming fanng applications

anyways i wish you all the best please listen to my advice and youll have a better chance at finding a job

[vivid fiber]

Yeah that's good advice

Thanks

[stable ravine]

yeah thanks for the advice very useful

ngl

[fossil field]

If anyone has quesitons feel free to dm or ask here

i feel all of you, i was in your exact position 1.5 weeks ago

[zenith eagle]

you all should not apply to any job postings

leave it all for me

[zenith eagle]

the connections mfer is trynna say:

[fossil field]

mega coping

keep doing what youre doing and keep being jobless

[zenith eagle]

can u not infer sarcasm and jokes?

[fossil field]

ur living in a fantasy

[zenith eagle]

that's a rhetorical btw seems like u cant so don't answer the q

[fossil field]

gl

[zenith eagle]

i will get big tech offer and prove u wrong

[fossil field]

gl

u still dont got a job

so gl

srsly tho go grind ur connections

its the highest chance to get a job

[wheat comet]

why not do both

[hallow apex]

instructions unclear, grinded on my connections and now i have to appear in court next month

[fossil field]

best chance to get a job is through connections so why not focus most of ur time on that

[wheat comet]

and how do you know that that is the best chance to get a job

most people get jobs without connections

[fossil field]

where r u getting that info from?

[wheat comet]

do a quick poll

[fossil field]

just ur head?

u do it since you said

[wheat comet]

u made the initial claim

[fossil field]

u said most people get jobs without connections lol

try again

[wheat comet]

because they do

[fossil field]

bro just go grind connections

sure

youre jobless so must be right

[wheat comet]

you put so much emphasis on connections only because you got your one job through connections, you can get connections and apply at the same time

u dont need to pick

[fossil field]

boss

i applied to 1200 jobs

nothing

[wheat comet]

how do you know im jobless ? 🤣

[fossil field]

connecitons - got me all my interviews

cause u are

[wheat comet]

that seems like a skill issue

[fossil field]

boss im trying to help and ur trying to hate cause ur coping for no job

[hot rapids]

Don’t you work as a web dev at a computer store?

[wheat comet]

ur not helping by saying stop applying and grind connections

[fossil field]

nah full stack

[wheat comet]

im saying do both

[fossil field]

im saying focus on connections more

[hot rapids]

Respect

[wheat comet]

and im not the one assuming that other people r jobless

[fossil field]

i stopped applying my last 2 weeks before i got this new job and focused on connections and got a job

after months of pain

[fossil field]

bruh i know ur jobless stop pretending youre not

[wheat comet]

if u applied 1200 places and didnt get any interviews, u need to stop and think about what ur doing wrong

[fossil field]

i like this

[wheat comet]

sure

[fossil field]

trust me i tried everything

i feel for all of u, job market is absolute shitter rn especially in canada

[wheat comet]

there are more experienced people than you in this discord, i would rather take their word

[fossil field]

and what are they saying?

the people with jobs?

[lapis tide]

i think everyone should stop applying to jobs

[wheat comet]

prolly not to just focus on connections

[fossil field]

apply to jobs for sure but focus mostly on connections

[drifting shore]

^ learn oop

[lapis tide]

focus on stopping applying to jobs

[fossil field]

or you guys do you, im gonna enjoy my paycheck at my job that i have and chill tn

gl fr tho, connections r ur best way especially if ur a mid developer. Wish you all the bests kisses mwah

[umbral tangle]

what is happening

[umbral tangle]

hey aren't you the minion guy from asip server

[lapis tide]

whats a minion

[umbral tangle]

i like the cali or bust mindset

[vivid fiber]

Cali is overrated

[lapis tide]

Inv

[hot rapids]

Bro typing this from cali 😭

[vivid fiber]

Well yea

[umbral tangle]

😂

[vivid fiber]

Dats y i can say it

[thorny frost]

I need a job so bad

I will kms if the only place that would hire me is the gov't

I can't stand working there

[worldly ridge]

soulks typing from his 1% interest rate mortgage in Los Altos Hills

[candid oxide]

chiraq or bust

[vivid fiber]

Im a rentoid

[timid tartan]

Never

[hot spruce]

is anyone else just angry-applying sometimes

[lapis tide]

wtf does that mean

[hot spruce]

u know, they ask for 5-6 yrs of experience, the pay is 40k a year.

[swift kernel]

govt is not the worst place to start, but relocation is a pain

fuck living in ottawa

middle of nowhere

[thorny frost]

Nah it's the absolute worst place to start if your goal is to work in the private sector

Yeah fuck ottawa lol

Everyone and their mom wants to work for the public sector here

This place is so boring

I can't wait to move to somewhere else after I graduate

[vivid fiber]

Not rlly

I kno a few ppl who went from govt to big tech

[vital slate]

Govt folks bearly work

[vivid fiber]

Yea

They had plenty of time

To apply to other jobs lmao

And prep

[vital slate]

Did an internship, decided never going to join govt within the first week

It’s the best place to prep

I agree

[fiery prism]

yeah govt job is so free

[thorny frost]

Once you start working for the govt your skills will begin to deteriorate

You have to upskill like crazy to stay competitive for the private sector jobs

[stable ravine]

do they outsource?

why do they even need swe if they outsource?

[thorny frost]

I guess doing an internship in the government isn't that bad but I wouldn't get a FT job in the govt after I graduate

[vivid fiber]

If you don't have any other option its better than nothing

[thorny frost]

For sure

[vital slate]

I think so. I haven’t seen proper swe happening

[fiery prism]

They didn't have swe projects for me, and gave me some stupid it support stuffs

[eternal fossil]

i feel it

its rope season

idk how im gonna get thru december

[hot rapids]

Look towards the bright January brother 🤩

[naive island]

Has anyone in here done an interview with General Dynamics

[timid tartan]

Got rejected, don't ask me why / how bcs I really have no clue

Hence my username lmao

Yea got rejected after the final round, it's weird

Well, yeah, Amazon

I'm still actively applying though

[fiery prism]

How’s amazon

They sent u the offer yet

[timid tartan]

Yeah I already accepted the offer

[candid oxide]

bruh my citizenship oath is right before a free trip to nyc now i cant go

[teal remnant]

For winter ?

[naive island]

yea, I have a first round on Monday

[queen sinew]

Does anyone know the process for Ceridian?

[tawny zephyr]

yeah

hook a homie up

[solid flint]

would like to know as well :)

[stable ravine]

leme take the free trip. You take the oath

[candid oxide]

[dreamy holly]

How do I work as an international student who is not in a co-op program?

Anyone have experience with this? I got an internship interview from Sanctuary AI but not if I can even do it :/

[tawny zephyr]

I agree with McLovin

[candid oxide]

[stable ravine]

bro gonna skip his citizenship oath for a free trip 💀

[candid oxide]

my friend rescheduled oath and got booked for 6 months later lol

not doing that

[fiery prism]

if not summer then u need to maintain your credits in order to have full time study status

if summer then u don't need to do that

[dreamy holly]

It will be my last term so I don’t think I need to be a full-time student

More so I don’t think I have authorization to work full time

Unless they sponsor

[fiery prism]

canada or us

[dreamy holly]

Canada

[fiery prism]

if so u still need to maintain your full-time status

since ur intl

then you can work full time (i think they open up to 40hrs of work hours for intl already)

[dreamy holly]

That’s until December 2023

Yea

[fiery prism]

hmmm

[dreamy holly]

This says last semester I can be part time:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/work/work-off-campus.html

[fiery prism]

can you ask for coop work permit extension

[dreamy holly]

But regardless, I don’t think I can work full time

[dreamy holly]

Ask my school?

[fiery prism]

yeah

[dreamy holly]

Hmm maybe

[fiery prism]

since u still studying

if u have that paper then u can work full time

[dreamy holly]

So far I think I’ll ask company to sponsor, or graduate in December and do co-op using PGWP

Thoughts on option two?

I can also talk to my co-op office but I don’t think they will let me since I dropped out of co-op last year

[fiery prism]

hmmm working coop on PGWP might be wasting ur PGWP time

cause u only have 3 years and u cannot extend it

[dreamy holly]

It won’t count towards PR?

It’s interesting work so worth a try I think

[untold geode]

Coop work doesn't count to PR iirc

[dreamy holly]

I see

Thanks for the help guys 🙏

[tawny zephyr]

why not lol

towards your PR residency requirement?

like you need to stay 2 / 5 years in canada to maintain pr

and 3 years to apply for citizenship

[untold geode]

I'm talking about going from temporary to PR status

[tawny zephyr]

like study -> PR

[untold geode]

Yeah

Cuz you need to satisfy the requirement for 1 year of professional work towards which your coop exp doesn't count if I'm not mistaken

[tawny zephyr]

ohhh

yeah unsure about that

i assume this is about express entry

[analog current]

Hows the job market

Almost december surley things have gotten better

[tawny zephyr]

I dont have coop

prob cuz I havent applied yet lol

[strange jay]

yea its full time ng

[timid tartan]

Yea (full-time) internship doesn’t count towards exp for PR

[dreamy holly]

Usually you get three years to get the one year of experience though

So I’m not too worried abt losing 4 months

[teal remnant]

Anyone did ibm oa for consulting I ran out of time

[stable ravine]

they have new consulting posting?

[teal remnant]

Intern

[stable ravine]

for consulting? lmao

[teal remnant]

Yeah

[stable ravine]

new grad backend dev was so easy I finished 2 questions in 5mins

[teal remnant]

It’s actually soft dev consulting

[teal remnant]

Nice

Congrats on ibm

[stable ravine]

rofl my resume never gets picked

gonna ghost me as they did for associate consulting role

would working at quebec hinders pr process?

[weary cave]

Has anyone on here done a project presentation panel interview for Ansys?

[hallow urchin]

how much does sanctuary payyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[zinc knot]

I did

It was pretty easy, took ~15 min total to complete

one was a greedy question simple sorting and one was binary search

how dod you run out of time

Even though it went well ik i’m not passing screen lmao

[teal remnant]

Ok so mine was fked

Different question

[zinc knot]

shit

its auto oa, 1 hr after application

did it a day after

[ashen mason]

Can u cheat during oa 🤔

[zinc knot]

was it consulting dev

[zinc knot]

wouldn't need to tbh bro 😭

if you cheating on an easy oa like that, the interviews will be 10x harder

[fickle lotus]

IBM OA is randomizef

*randomized

so not everyone will be easy, but I agree with the point about cheating not helping for the actual interview lol

[zenith eagle]

ca depend

ca depend lorsque quebec etait une different process d'immigration

[fossil field]

really bruh.. speak english

[zenith eagle]

https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/fr/article/langues-officielles-1969-loi-sur-les

it is my right to parle franglais tout le canada

[worldly ridge]

@analog current charlie munger died

[timid tartan]

Is franglais even a thing lmao

[analog current]

ur lying

[worldly ridge]

next is warren buffet

[analog current]

[worldly ridge]

charlie mugner looks likea ghoul though

waren buffet still looks young

lmao

[analog current]

shut the fuck up

[worldly ridge]

[analog current]

this is crazy

i followed him since i was a kid

i feel like I knew him personallu

[zenith eagle]

ouais, mais franglais etait only parlent par anglos qui visitez quebec

apparently in rural quebec, french tourists switch to english to communicate cuz it's easier than trying to decipher hick quebecois accent and slang

[worldly ridge]

didnt ur parents met with him in UAE?

[analog current]

yea i unfortunatly didnt get to meet him

[timid tartan]

So english + french in the same sentence?

😂😂😂😂

[fiery prism]

Du ma may

It’s french btw

[timid tartan]

I will have my French 101 final exam in 2 days and I'm surely about to fail

[storm stream]

Hello Canadians

interest rates go up but house prices don't go down

Have we been scammed in this country?

[sly kindle]

In 100,000 ways my friend

[fallen mason]

pretty much

[strange jay]

it's not going down bc ppl are not dumping it yet

[fossil field]

no, people dont want to sell for 500,000$ less than it was worth a year ago so are keeping thinking itll go back up

[strange jay]

it won't

[fossil field]

they would all take massive 100,000 of thousands of losses which most cant afford

buttt now mortgage renewals are upp and lots of lenders are rejecting them

cause in canada mortgages renew every 3 years

unlike like 10-15 years in the us

[strange jay]

i in a right mind dk where they're thinking to stay

[fossil field]

yea but im a renter forever lol i dont wanna waste my money on mortgage

[strange jay]

yup at least in 2020s

[fossil field]

dont plan on staying in places for way too long anyways

[strange jay]

staying in canada in long term is a bad idea financially

[fossil field]

toronto-europe-nyc-sanfran(maybe)-austin

if shit hits the fan here im going to europe

[strange jay]

isnt europe worse?

[fossil field]

lol

no, europe isnt just one country

[strange jay]

yeah but uk & france practically falling

[fossil field]

germany-france shit is hitting the fan

yea and uk

eastern europe is where i going

[strange jay]

serbia babbyyy

[strange jay]

[fossil field]

[strange jay]

i might head out to asia if us economy goes down too

[fossil field]

if us goes canada goes

[strange jay]

nah this time canada dips first

[fossil field]

and us is in process of historical society and economy crash

canada is fucked already, just prices are lagging

we already see 200$ grocery bill for what used to be 30-40$ a couple years back

[strange jay]

its a good place to hedge residency

if shit goes bad so u can claim ur canadian citizen

[fossil field]

nah us is gonna get way worse

[strange jay]

aka china/taiwan

[fossil field]

would not go there

china isnt any better

[strange jay]

nah

[fossil field]

all big economies will collapse

[proud canopy]

The whole world is going to shit stop dooming

[strange jay]

china & taiwan impact? -> singapore, japan, s.korea falls too

[fossil field]

but if anything japan will be the first to crash and that will start a domino chain

[fossil field]

we are chatting about real world current events, not dooming, staying educated

[strange jay]

don't think so japan has nothing to lose atm

[fossil field]

lol

they have largest debt to gdp

[strange jay]

korea will

[proud canopy]

I agree with you guys but talking about it doesnt help

[fossil field]

worse than what greece had when it collapsed

[strange jay]

it's stable & they have huge liquidity to cover anyways

[proud canopy]

Japan is gonna be fine

Imo

[fossil field]

like i said its about being educated so you can make smarter decisions for ur future

no it wont

[strange jay]

and usd > jpy

[proud canopy]

Korea is pretty fucked

[fossil field]

japan is first to go

[fossil field]

[strange jay]

[fossil field]

[proud canopy]

Nothing bad but people are aware about the COL

Vs the salaries

[fossil field]

yea it sucks i mean its not a good time immigrate, it was a couple years back but crazy now

ur trapped working ur whole life and more

[proud canopy]

I personally think the canada dooming sometimes goes a little too far

[strange jay]

prob the same anywhere in asia tho

[proud canopy]

Especially on reddit

[fossil field]

when did u come here nohibean?

[strange jay]

[proud canopy]

[proud canopy]

Early 2021

I go to UBC

[fossil field]

i came here 8 years ago and from the time i came here and now its a complete different country, gone to abosulte shit

[strange jay]

[fossil field]

way to expensive, shitty service

[strange jay]

[fossil field]

downtowns and culture messed u

crime and violence gone crazy up

[proud canopy]

Loll ngl im considering just using my indian cell plan on roaming for data

[fossil field]

same with drug use and homeless people

[proud canopy]

Gonna be cheaper

[strange jay]

we just need the rates down

its crazy main driver is government spending rn

[proud canopy]

Theres a lot of fraud going on, i can acknowledge that much

[strange jay]

yup gatekeeping one of them

[proud canopy]

If the government just clamps down harhly on that

[strange jay]

u should know better than me ur in van lol

[proud canopy]

Itll bring it down automatically

[strange jay]

yeah hope so

[storm stream]

It's not going down because there's a lot of people and not as many homes 😭

[strange jay]

yup main driver

[fickle juniper]

people have and will continue to make tremendous sacrifices to try keep/buy a home

[strange jay]

for those fully own one -> yes

for those still in mortgage -> idk

[fickle juniper]

fully own as in their mortgage is fully paid off?

[strange jay]

rates will go up & idk if they will survive

yup

[fickle juniper]

they won't need to make any sacrifices in that case, they alr own their home

im talking about literally everyone but those ppl

[strange jay]

yea

i simply don't know how many ppl will survive that thru at least until 2026 lol

[fickle juniper]

yeah me neither

[strange jay]

canadian rates will go up at least 50bp higher & wont drop

[fickle juniper]

but i wouldn't be surprised if people found a way

well more ppl than you might expect anyway

[strange jay]

fax

[fickle juniper]

huh really?

that sucks

[strange jay]

inflation won't drop

its acc accelerating

for us -> yea rates might go down but likely won't go up more than 25bp in next 2 yrs

government cutting programs & building homes will solve problem lmao

[fickle juniper]

where did you hear that inflation is accelerating?

i remember reading it was dropping

https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/canada-inflation-october-1.7034686

[storm stream]

I love stagflation

[timid tartan]

How is it even possible to buy a home lmao

Even with $300k TC I don't see how you can ever afford one

[storm stream]

it's not... don't kid yourself

[timid tartan]

Or even $500k TC for that matter

[candid oxide]

bro on 300k tc u can definitely afford one 😭

[timid tartan]

[timid tartan]

Houses are like $2-3M lmao

[candid oxide]

[storm stream]

[fickle juniper]

[storm stream]

[timid tartan]

By the time we have $1M then houses will be at $5M or something fml

[timid tartan]

Mf

[candid oxide]

[timid tartan]

Nah bruh

That's the standard in Toronto / Vancouver

Lol

[storm stream]

[fickle juniper]

if you have $1mill you could afford a $5mill home probably

[candid oxide]

idk how much toronto is but markham is alr pretty expensive

[fickle juniper]

tho I personally would not make that purchase

[timid tartan]

Yeye let me stay in ur basement

[candid oxide]

and not 3m expensive

[storm stream]

nah markham is too low class for @timid tartan

have you seen his resume?

[candid oxide]

💀

[timid tartan]

Yeah $3M is Vancouver lol

[storm stream]

[fickle juniper]

interestingly the greater vancouver area is small enough that all of it is like a max 1hr drive to the city

[timid tartan]

[candid oxide]

i mean most of gta is also 1 hour at furthest if you live close to train

[fickle juniper]

ik this ain't the case in ON tho

[candid oxide]
