Yo @real island where you at
Not hard at all, I just made some trivial mistakes
Jan going to be big 
dang that sucks
was it all LC
Lol what happened

gotcha yeah I applied for both positions and asked for backend interview
if it ends up being bad imma regret it so much π
Got OA, got 100 on it recruiter emailed me asking questions then I got rejected today and recruiter never replied to me π
Huh what kind of questions?
That's weird
Like if I have offer deadlines, my experience with OS, Java etc, preferred start date
Sounded like they wanted to interview me so idk what happened π
OS????????????
Bruh what lmao
Like Kernel Programming?
Ye
It was AWS aurora
Separate posting for AWS
That might be why I guess
they always say that π
Bruh what
You're not new in recruiting right
LMAO
All recruiters will tell you that
Loool
They legit asked me questions like I will get interview
I answer them
Then they ghost me
Like what
Offer deadline, preference, etc?
That's just normal administrative questions lol
Preferred start date, can I commit to in person
Just in case if you get one
Yeah dude
That's a normal thing LMAO
?
What
Wdym lmao I'm just telling you that's completely normal
I'm so confused
does status change from under consideration on portal when u get oa for zon
I get that kind of questions almost 100% of the time bcs it's an administrative thing that recruiters need to know
Recruiters are either dumb or overworked or both
Generally they're too busy filming their day in the life tiktoks
He already left
They're useless dude
Yeah someone literally got an interview and then after providing availabilities, the candidate got another email saying that interview invitation was a mistake
AWS known to cast a wide net, spray and pray reach outs
TikTok rejected me the day after scheduling for second round 
Classic
Did he leave last time cuz of the nvidia stuff?
Oh did he?
I thought he's brand new here
Yo mom wake up, my rejection letter just dropped!
I got a recruiter reach out for AWS and then they ghosted me after I applied π
congrats on zon
Feel free to report them on this site we started: https://ghosts.fyi
Blud's had a whole character arc on this server π
Amazon recruiters could spit on me and I'd still be applying to work there every time they open a position
Says a lot about Amazon. Hope it works out
GTA 6 trailer out
The actual game comes out in 2025 tho π
bruh this is straight out of the onion https://www.reddit.com/r/Canada_sub/comments/15wqfug/remember_when_justin_trudeau_openly_admitted_to/
this sub is full of inbreds
it's funny how people deny that the laurentian elite exist in this country
trudeau is literally laurentian royalty
tbh i miss harper, always have
he was a respectable decent pm who was a rightful econ and political nerd who managed the 2008 recession
sure he looked like literally the lego movie guy but with grey hair and glasses
but
as a PM ur job is to just disappear from day to day life
Does anyone know how this is even possible 
$8.6 million to develop an app holy shit 
seemed like 1st yr project tbh
Not even that
It's literally a bunch of forms glued together π
whats the point of this lol...
one word: consultants consulting consultants on how to consult clients
i realized its not one word but
it's literally this
do u know how much fcukng money mckinsey made from the feds?
crazy
"consultation & making social impacts" = laundry
bet commission % for justin was fat af
Some people said they would find it useful to check when deciding where to apply so thatβs why this basic version was built. You donβt think so?

Idek how they needed consultants to build that crap
i dont think its useful at all
can't we just go on glassdoor or blind and look at reviews?
Good to know! Have you been ghosted a lot while applying?
i just don't see the use case
@timid tartan u know those bizniz kids at IC or the kids at rotman downtown wearing suits and carrying empty briefcases on a wednesday?
it's them milking the govt dry to justify their job
and there's many mixed experiences. people won't have consistent exp with ghosting
everytime i've talked to one of those bizniz kids at ic i've wanted either kms or kill them or both
the hubris, the ego oml
LLLLMMMMAAAAOOOO
π

Yeah, there are different levels to it, for sure. I think that there could be something more granular than GD in terms of reviewing interview processes. People have been filling it out, but still trying to figure out whether it will be useful or not. Or what is needed for it to be
rotman is L
wait till u meet sc/m campus bizniz kids
their ego is even higher
i do ivey
all i can say is pure buz is L
haven't met ivey kids thankfully
but i guess the party env at western mellows them out and makes them well adjusted imo
lol exact opposite
but they kno what they doin
ivey is da source of mckinsey x justin scam lmao
Facts, a lot healthier for the psyche to assume you've been ghosted and move on
guys
new idea
we use our bodys in such a way that makes us burn more calories than we consume
go gym
if you do leetcode your lose natty status
Imo ghosting after an application is fine but ghosting after an interview is bad candidate experience
I could see the website being useful if it only focused on companies that ghosted after interviews, not ghosted overall
That makes sense! Yeah, thatβs probably where the real value is. Huge red flag if a company ghosts you after interviews. Some people have reported being ghosted after going through 5 interviews
π
i got it too
did u start lmao
its so late their process
When was the ibm reject. I did the oa last week and still havnt heard back π
I did summer 2024
bruh my dad just told me he can try and get his friend in the states to get me a job
Dad coming in clutch
bro i cant get a job here whats the odds in the states especially in terms of VISA
bro i been graduated im a veteran of this sub
Oh π
Even a rope is too expensive
If I did it on live Iβd get this sub to foot the bill
Itβs 8 months
Not doing it
CAN YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP
OML
baller offer and he's still not great
from now on, all my "how are we doin today" and related expressions don't apply to u

unless ur answer is "good'
Nah itβs never good
read the god damn room

what does it take to make bro happy π
hrt
Lol Iβve been seeking for this answer for more than 7 years
πππ
ice spice? more like no jobs π― π
we aint making out the streets π£π£π£π₯π₯π₯
We were raised in the gutter and shall continue occupying said gutter π₯π₯π₯
lol
@fickle lotus i dunno if i told u this but i love your name
what does it mean by shaquille oatmeal
He's someone on discord lol
Got meme'ed bcs he is going to do his 8th or 9th I forgot
ok mr 80x faang

No? I mean whatβs wrong with working lmao
Some people just have to work every single semester for whatever reason
?
Yeah but like
unless he's literally fall winter summer working
Maybe he worked every semester while taking courses?
Yes precisely this
and then like how the fuck unless they're all remote which is rare these days
Iβve been doing this lmao
Only taking a break this semester
Why not?
yea but only cuz of the pandemic i doubt u could otherwise cuz remote wasn't a thing
No lol I did it from 2019 all the way to 2023
ok mr 90x faang
I just worked from 7 am to 12 am and repeat
π€
So weekdays are mostly for work
Maybe 2-3 hrs for courses
Then weekends are for catching up with courses
feelsbdman i've had to reject offers during off szn cuz of stupid class eith mandatory weekly in person quizzes
π€£
Yeah most of my courses donβt have that kind of thing
Just assignments + midterm + final
Tbh I doubt youβd want to do it anyway
It probably isnβt worth it unless youβre seriously short on cash
True I'd be stressed and I wouldn't learn in school and the job
The cash would've been nice tho but I had a fat scholarship to bank
Yea itβs a huge time commitment
I only got away bcs I donβt need socialization so I could throw it off and be content with it
we can tell about the lack of socialization btw
Yeah it is what it is
No other choice lmao
this fucking made me cackle so hard
You know that thing is extremely expensive in Canada right π
If @timid tartan can't get a decent offer than what does that mean for the rest of us
We're fkn doomed boys
Mf

??????? why on gods green earth would u nasi lemak-maxx here
Youβre the one with Google on resume
LMAOOOO I couldnβt go back home bruh
He got a top tier offer wat do u mean?
yo @timid tartan invite me to your mansion tent in vancouver and make me some nasi lemak
what the heck
Nah amazon is shit for him, he was even in process for quant
mi goreng with a sachet of meth

LLLMMMAAAAOOOO
og flavour is best flavour anyway
tf???? it's literally one of the best foods on the planet bruh
need uncle roger to roast my mi goreng cooking skills
π€£ π€£
Yo what
Is it that popular here?

Wtf πππππ
Bruh lmao
indomie, the knockoff nissin noodles that actually toppled the giant
nissin missin fr fr
LMAO
π€
btw @timid tartan Amazon offers boiled water so you can have indomie in the office
Would you believe me if I tell you that the last time I ate Indomie was like 10 years ago?
what the FUCK
HOW
π€£
Indomie so fire

he;s too rich from interning every fall summer winter
i bet mfer buys 2 ply tp as well
nothing tops indomie
my friend gave me mr noodles and i never felt so violent before
like it should be a crime for mr noodles to exist
PREACH π£οΈ
idk man the indian instant noodle offerings go hard
mr noodle tastes like wet cardboard fr
magi?
i found magi mid too
maggi is bottom of the list
Nah bruh itβs extremely unhealthy lol
there's eay better ones
my indian friend is addicted with ketchup and maggi for some reaosn
kill him
π
sacrilege
jesus christ
Damn
5 pack is like $3
Oh
Hmm
Ok nevermind
I thought I could make a profit by selling indomie at a much cheaper price
π€£π€£π€£π€£
LMMFFAAOOO
what u think of indo's new capital?
you need to bring gado gado here and martabak t_t
makes one of the highest salaries out of any new grad in the country and still wants to make more money
LLLLMMAAAAOOO
True dat
Bro
The hustle never stops

Martabak is sooo good but I don't dare to eat it 
i would gain 100lbs if i were to eat it everyday
LMAO yeah exactly
Should I sell Indomie to the homeless there? π€
youll be a billionaire if you can mass introduce indomie to non indonesian people and upsell it a tiny bit
guys should i start new grad early or do 1 more internship
i can prob squeeze in one last one
but idk what to do
help
yeah but its mid af
π
from where?
tc is like 100k
congrats
cohere
bro
Cohere is mid
Cohere only 100k in Canada? 
don't play games with your future... take NG and keep looking if you're not happy
makes no sense to take intern
take it like @timid tartan
like the alternative is to intern at okta in summer and push back start date
resume value is crazy tho, you'll be in a very good place
i wasnt given the option idk
what are the odds of okta RO, and aren't they getting hacked left and right?

have u negotiated
the thing is that cohere is a startup
so i feel like no one knows about it
yeah i tried but got shut down
imo Cohere > Okta because of AI hype
the US ro offer I saw was like 150 + 50
they give like 5k relo which is not bad
usd
yeah us is just way better than canada
wild
for like most companies tbh

can u change ur name to escape from cad
how are they only offering 100k though I have friends interning and getting more than 100k
yeah i agree, just wanted to squeeze in one more but not sure if worth it
starting ng earlier may be better
Iβm escaping cad already π
if it's not crazy inconvenient then yeah why not
maybe you'll get RO at Okta who knows
I think starting NG is good especially if company is good like cohere
yeah i never interned before
wasnt a RO
ohh
wait do you mean do Okta THEN Cohere
mental health will be gg
think in the future when you're at 1YOE and you wanna look elsewhere
fk
the timing might be weird
what's your background
Are you international in Canada @quartz ridge
how much paper money is Cohere giving
yep Iβm international
hunker down, get passport, transfer to USA
damn sick
just like @timid tartan 
ah
Canadians or internationals?
I actually got denied a ton of internship interviews just bc of no sponsor
internationals
π¨π¦ is on TN not H1B
Itβs pretty sad
fuck 
where u from @quartz ridge
that's why I'm saying get passport first
makes it easier
Singapore
π
goat
world's best airport
all paper
starting ng early is good to get green card/citizenship no?
prob yea
but tbh
this year, or this summer rather
has been the most brutal recruiting season
ive ever done
it just feels way harder to pass screens for some reason
Mf thinks Iβm good enough to get to the USA

π€£ π€£ π€£
Take homelessness? 
how can an iam company suck this badly at security
grats on GQS
I mean instead of hiring sec engs they choose to do hire more sdets

ddog
don't eat
doesnβt mongo pay way less than ddog
ddog prestige >>>>>>
like if ur a pm dont u just socialize for 8 hours and call it a work day

TC???????
he works as a sales rep
Canada to cut O&G by 75% by 2030
just methane bro
I'm a sales engineer
How??
How tf are they gonna cut emissions by 75% without hurting the industry tho?
bro methane comes from cow farts
not O&G production
(mostly)

anyone seen the "how I spent my 200k salary as a swe last month" videos?
no pls send
one mf even said "outrageous salary for a job that requires minimal education" in the comments too lmao
like we aren't constantly gonna have to keep up to date with shit for the next 40 years
He looks like the avg cs major
Probably not more than what I'll save 
are you a swe influencer? send ig 
what makes u an engineer? what do you do at ur job?
I sell chromebooks
I engineer transactions 
What makes us an βengineerβ as swes 
(thatβs just what we call ourselves)
Social engineering 
yall wanna chime in on somethin im having trouble figuring out?
i have a projects header in my resume
and this is how I'm listing the tech stack
this is how I talk about the technologies used under my work experience
the reason for this is because i only have 1 project in my resume
and if i try to talk about it anymore it spills onto the 2nd page
so im trying to keep it one paged
What I'm doing is just mentioning the main ones in my title
Project Name | Flask, VueJS, MongoDB, GCP, OpenAI
^ same
then going into detail in the bullet points for the other shit
only for pojects?
Yeah
or for work xp too ?
no not for work exp
at least I donβt do for work exp
ok thats smart
no tech stack for work exp, mine is in bullet points
i appreciate yall, thats actually a good idea
some people do it for work exp but it's weird
facts
go get em
Would yall take a remote job that pays for you to travel over a faang
can i add docker or nah?
dont compare sales assositate to software engineer lol
Why not?
sales people sell, software developers build and fix
his position is sales specialist too nowhere does it say sales engineer lol
why dont you call mcdonalds workers food engineer?
U do know
That he was joking
He is not actually a sales engineer or whatever
But in any case the only reason swes are called that is because thatβs what the industry decided

SWEs have no requirement to get an engineering degree/credentials
Whereas actual βengineersβ do
Despite what ur opinions are about the differences such as these
I'm a Sales Associate Representative Agent Specialist Engineer
check my linkedin for proof
software developers are glorified plumbers
everything is prebuilt

do u even have a job?
After @timid tartan , @fickle juniper is one of the most goated members of this community
yea so idk why ur talking or argueing im not arguing anything just that if momo is serious they think they are sales engineer thats just stupid
I cant tell if this guy is joking sometimes
srrf

Well Iβm happy to end the convo
Oh and btw I forgot I actually do have a job (whew), which I should be getting back to
Andre on his hate wagon today 
Yeah Iβm a prompt java associate representative engineer
what's more stupid, getting mad about the title of a job that pays $15/hr, or pretending to be a sales engineer?

weird
depends on the TC π
depends on prestige 
Depends on the remote job, FAANG, pay
bro keeps asking do u even have job to all the ppl with jobs π
Idek why thatβs relevant π
He got a job
Mf
LLLMAAAOOO
He wanted to flex his job, itβs ok
Lil bro recently got a job and he's excited let him have his moment 
Correct me if I am wrong but AFAIK everybody in Canada has the right to freely voice out an opinion
do u know oop tho
Yeah itβs called Freedom of Expression
and stop applying to faang
This tbh
Leave all the faang jobs for me

will pay everyone 50 cents each to stop applying to faang
Sure, I'll take that!
man the winter darkness is hitting me especially hard this winter
SAD to the maxxx
combined with just being cooped inside all day just spam applying to jobs and then catching up on work, i'm going crazy
I feel ya. I literally glued my ass to my chair for more than 12 hrs everyday π
man i fucking hate being lonely, roomie's gone for basically this whole seemster it's nice to have the whole apartment to myself but like
Hopefully hiring starts again in January? 
i must come across as crazed and in wonton need of company to other people the rare times i venture out
this is why WFH as NG isn't it for me
lord i hope ng will be more sociable and less isolating than university or i will actually lose it
my sanity resting on a razor thin edge
Lmaoo yea thatβs extrovertsβ worst enemy
why's modern day so isolating man fuck
i hate it so much
everyone into clique's already and if u don't have one you're shit outta luck
Idt thatβs the case
It looks like the majority of our society is extroverted
lmao u try making small talk with anyone our age and they look at like ur crazy
it's fake extrovertedness imho which is worse than being isolated
This is why I just donβt do it lol I hate small talks
But then again Iβm old
At least older than most bachelor students
bro even just shooting the shit while waiting for the bus to arrive too much to ask?
and it's not about age lol
where r u from
everyone's got their airpods in to drone out the outside which i get but i kinda miss the serendiptious connections u can make when people are more socially open
I do my assignments during that time
i heard montreal is more open
πππ
and people r more social
rn i'm in ottawa lmao
this place so closed off it's crazy
everyone is jaded
i heard toronto not too bad
Oh
just in toronto people are busy
eh its probably the same as ottawa just less white people
no in ottawa people are just cliquey i've met near 30 yo's who told me they dont hangout with anyone outside of their hs gang
like wtf
Man honestly this makes sense tho. Everybody is stressed, tired, and exhausted
Trying to make ends meet
how do u do assignemnts waiting for the bus lol
Keeping up with the insane surge in living cost
i used to do that but i just gave up
Online assignments lol
it's sad to see how much CoL affects efverything, people are less likely to be social etc
i hate it
Not CS / Math assignments obviously
Yeah it is what it is
i'd swap cheapo rents and CoL for more expensive phones and TV's and whatever
no wait
the opposite i'm dumb
Iβm already planning to pick up a second job lmao

Fcking COL
Yea either OE or just literally a side hustle
Like tutoring or whatever
but no i support OE
ideally i'd have to be 8 months in settled into the team before i start thinking of OE
no way i can onboard to 2 companies at the same time my stress would kill me
yes but the 2nd job gotta be like fun
tutoring doesn't sound fun
Well pick a low stress one for the second job
i wish i could like be a mechanic or something on the side
Lol I like it honestly
I used to volunteer as a tutor
shoot the shit with the lads in the garage
you mf
peeps more chill?

Hmmmm
Tbh idk but yeah indo living cost is far more forgiving
And ppl tend to be more chill yeah
why arent u then
Which is why I couldnβt fit into the society there
Thatβs precisely why I had to escape lmao
Gib job
mjderff
Stfu! Go to zon
Can confirm
Give job pls @fickle juniper
@timid tartan can you give referal pls
Why would you move from Google to Amazon
You have free food

hows the local ccp secret police station going 
dont know what youre talking about 
congrats on canada offer

ben franklin was a next level mfer
"but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes."
Lmao I know
Indo taxes is really low
So yes lmao
which is an instrument of the us hegemony aka the military. but then so i paying taxes to actual barack, all the money goes to the DOD

Any countries othet than SG

SEA is beautiful except SG
SG is nice but only if youβre like a top 1% earner there

i'll be a Bali bum
Nah I love SG but itβs just as unaffordable as Toronto
Yeah lmao
Huh
I dont like SG because iits toronto but with asian people
In terms of what
LLLMMMAAAOOO
Well I love SG bcs itβs really strict and everything is in order
Public transport arrives on time
mfer loves caning
Itβs clean everywhere
hainan chicken rice n bakuteh tho gyat dammm
Rules and regulations are strict etc
yaa public transport so nice in SG
rents in sg are insane
its insane
Yeah top notch
plus society too restrictive
Insanely good
etc etc
No need for a car there
also i hate singlish
i remember they would always warn abt train bombs in the trains
Toronto rent is insane too bud
it's amusing for 10 sentances then it just becomes grating
kekw
This is a plus for me lmao
we need to kick u foreigners out and it'll become affordable 
and i will get ur zon offer

i meant soceity too restrive in the sense that
it's an eternal rat race i hear
i defo don't wanna be a kid there
Oh
lord
true
but i can't asia maxxx like that
no way
like what biznis is it urs, random auntie who i don't even think i'm related to by blood or otherwise
Weβre already in this since we were children lmao
βYou got 85 on that exam? Why canβt you get a 100? Your neighbor eats the same rice but he can get 100β

omg xlr8

my fave alien
Lmfao π
Real
all asian parents the same ..
Everywhere else other than Asia: 70/100 is good
Asia: 70/100 and 0/100 are basically the same and you're a disgrace in your entire descendants
My white friend's grandparents offered him $100 for every A he got in 7th grade
Blud still got C's
Yea same lmaooooo
In fact they don't really care about the letter grade
The actual mark is the one that's important
i was rocking bare Bs in elementary
I'm a disgrace ;/ gonna graduate without a job
took a lotta beatings
Like 90 on A is very different from 100 on A
The former is basically the same as getting an F
Dude right?

I had to explain one time that that me and my friend were the only ppl left with As in our phys 11 course
I can relate to this lmaoooo very Asian thing
And my mom still asked why I had a 90 π
"Nah it doesn't matter. It's either 100 or 0"
π€£
i think the biggest thing is
if you did bad they woudl literally kill u
but if u get 100
udont even get anything
π
LOOOOL ya that's the worst part
not even liek a congrats
Bcs it's more like the bare minimum for them
Expected outcome

Like bro I don't even want a $100 like my buddy, just give me an extra Christmas gift or w.e.
Some lego
I would've been happy with that
"Oh you got 100 on the Math exam? But your neighbour has just won a gold medal in IMO last month"

Yeah I think this comes from comparisons, ya'll in some high league families.
I just set their expectations too high and then it became the minimum
damn
It's literally impossible to avoid this when the school publishes the rankings lmao
