[analog current]

[analog current]

[tawny zephyr]

unless berkeley or la prob

even then tuition cost is alone for me to consider

[tawny zephyr]

its not allat

im priviledged

its nice

but just by living in cali my life isnt better

• got to think of long term

im gonna get most ROI from going to uw and paying like 15k cad a year max

[analog current]

i think i just don’t like Canada weather 💀

[tawny zephyr]

vs paying 40k+ usd at berkeley

[analog current]

yeah that’s something to consider, i realized if i applied intl i wouldn’t be able to actually afford ucs lol

[normal jetty]

U transferred from Canadian hs to Us?

Did ur parents move or sum

Or was it for school purposes

[tawny zephyr]

us -> canada -> us

parents

[normal jetty]

I was considering doing that

Oh ok

[tawny zephyr]

yeah

and even if u could

[normal jetty]

But I didn’t have the balls

[tawny zephyr]

i’d rather take the 30k / yr i’d save

[normal jetty]

Ayush I looked at ur website

[tawny zephyr]

and save up for a house

[normal jetty]

It’s Berkeley EECS or bust for u

[tawny zephyr]

[steel ore]

Ngl its on the return this term

Some solid jobs on there

[formal prism]

hold on g, you're in high school rn?

[normal jetty]

Western has a lot of goats 🐐

Especially the rich HBA kids

Waterloo only = faire , stack adapt , Arctic wolf

Intuit

[hallow sapphire]

waterloo don't exist

it's a myth

just like unicorns

[worthy orbit]

nah they were never waterloo only companies but going to waterloo makes it easier to get into those companies

[hallow sapphire]

they're not real people

[normal jetty]

Faire is only Waterloo for interns

Just go on LinkedIn , click company, and keyword intern

If it says other schools than that’s for FT roles

Uni overrated

[normal jetty]

I don’t apply to Faang

We have faang at home

Support Canada 🇨🇦 economy

Ya it’s true

[steel ore]

Yo do u all go to loo

[normal jetty]

Most here go to normal unis

And are still butt hurt abt loo

That’s what I sense

[steel ore]

Nah cuz the loo hate in this channel lowkey wild lol

[normal jetty]

Nah that’s me , I literally failed post

Just smell the Robert’s Extension

Smells like success

Most ppl in cs rn are money chasers

The real cs ppl go to shitty unis

And don’t know what leetcode is

This server is mainly for that crowd tho

[worthy orbit]

2 waterloo kids made Wish. Only tech company ik thats made by Canadian Uni grads

[normal jetty]

Uber was made by ucalgary grad

eBay was made by uoft grad

PagerDuty was made by loo comp eng grads

Instacart was made by loo EE grad

[analog current]

he’s jus doin a lil trolling but if u treat people lesser than you because you’re a quant unironically

then idk bruh 😭

[normal jetty]

Quant ppl built diff

They put blood sweat and tears

[tawny zephyr]

ya

[normal jetty]

To training math contests and shit

[tawny zephyr]

i dont want ww

[normal jetty]

All so one day they can become a math professor

[tawny zephyr]

i want to do design teams

[vivid fiber]

Tesla, OpenAI, and SpaceX were all started/funded from a Queens student

[tawny zephyr]

and i am familiar to some degree with the community

[normal jetty]

Lol !

[formal prism]

i did that "our wave hub" shit with u lol

[vivid fiber]

They were?

[tawny zephyr]

oh nice

[echo latch]

imagine hyping up quant lol

[normal jetty]

I know

[vivid fiber]

Why r u laughing

[echo latch]

couldnt be me

[tawny zephyr]

wagons did G end up working out

[normal jetty]

But u would have to transfer to UPenn Wharton first

Private boarding school in SA -> Queens -> Wharton

[vivid fiber]

It was multiple people

[normal jetty]

Ilya Sutskever

The Canadian govemrnet mainly

[vivid fiber]

Brains is nothing without capital

[normal jetty]

They funded all the AI research when there was an AI winter

No other countries invested in Ai research

During that time

And we weren’t able to reap the rewards

[echo latch]

[vivid fiber]

By definition it isn't...

Lmao

[tawny zephyr]

i’ll take that as a yes

[vivid fiber]

Discord user tries to understand basic concepts

Canadians shouldn't leave to thr US

Canadians on TN Visa are bad for the country

They benefit from our taxes

[normal jetty]

What’s the Point if we’re not even valued tho ?

[vivid fiber]

Then go to the US once they're of the age to contribute back

[normal jetty]

The government thinks they can import talent instead to replace

[vivid fiber]

It's messed up

[normal jetty]

Us

[vivid fiber]

Real brain drain

[normal jetty]

Every Canadian company that stays here

Fails

Only@the ones that moved to SF survived

[echo latch]

kitchener is great

[vivid fiber]

Nah kitchener is great

Blessed to kitchener

I hope so

I don't want more talent to go there

That's true, there hasn't been a successful tech startup in sf in years

[normal jetty]

No way?

[vivid fiber]

Yes, way

[normal jetty]

Where are all the successful startups now

(Don’t say Kitchener )

[vivid fiber]

Dead or in Canada

[normal jetty]

I can’t tell if ur trolling

[vivid fiber]

Why do you say that

[normal jetty]

Not enough VC money here

[vivid fiber]

I'm genuinely curious

Cause there has been only 2

[vivid fiber]

Actually so true

This is a major reason

[worthy orbit]

bunch of grads wont get jobs, might end up making their own startups, so u might be onto something

[normal jetty]

It’s also a chicken and egg situation

[vivid fiber]

Wont the same thing happen in the US, which has a stronger VC scene?

[normal jetty]

What came first , vc money or successful startups

[vivid fiber]

Successful startups

It's not a chicken and an egg lol

[normal jetty]

But why r all the vcs on sand hill road

[echo latch]

there's also the amendment to section 174 thing in the US

[worthy orbit]

new renaissance period

[vivid fiber]

Oh true

[normal jetty]

Yeah, if Canada somehow starts producing successful startups then the vc will follow

[vivid fiber]

That could be a big issue

Canada had 1 company

[normal jetty]

I don’t think the zoning changes are fruitful

[vivid fiber]

That beat the US for a bit

Then failrd

[normal jetty]

If u look into them, they don’t actually do much

[vivid fiber]

Idt thats really comparable

[normal jetty]

And they’ll get blocked by nimby /politicians

[vivid fiber]

I can think of 3~5 examples

The US has 100s

[normal jetty]

Nortel beat it bc of Stock market manipulation

[vivid fiber]

Stripe, Apple, Microsoft, Google Netflix, Amazon, Facebook, Uber, Dropbox, OpenAI,

[normal jetty]

All the index funds for tsx kept buying Nortel stock bc it was 30%

Of the tsx at one point

[echo latch]

all these companies have employed canadians so they are canadian companies

[vivid fiber]

Actually true

This is why Canada #1

[normal jetty]

All our dreams come down to TN visa Lowkey

If they make tn harder we’re all doomed

[vivid fiber]

TN visa should b banned

[normal jetty]

Think about India tho

[vivid fiber]

Wat abt india

[normal jetty]

Those so many talented ppl there that are stuck

That’s what Canada will be like if there’s no TN

Leetcode hards to work at Bell

[vivid fiber]

No

It would make more companies

[normal jetty]

India hasn’t made that many unique companies Tho

They’re all clones of western companies

[vivid fiber]

Ok im tired of trolling

[normal jetty]

Adapted for the Indian market

[vivid fiber]

Im going to bed

[normal jetty]

US and Canada are too similar

[vivid fiber]

Gn

I was trolling

[normal jetty]

Lmaaaooo

I am on a tn visa

[drifting shore]

[formal prism]

canada isn't attracting many talented indians though

[normal jetty]

Even with the difficult Greencard process in the US?

I think u are right

[formal prism]

yep

the actually cracked ones go to the US and start companies there

[normal jetty]

All the cracked Indians still try for USA

[formal prism]

the dumbasses come here and drive ubers

wdym

yeah most domestic indians are pretty cracked and care about having good jobs

international indians mostly just wanna flex on their families back home

[normal jetty]

How do u know domestic Indians don’t wanna flex on families here ?

[formal prism]

cuz families here know how much a dollar is valued

domestic indians mostly wanna flex on other people their age here

[normal jetty]

Yeah lol

Flex on ppl they went to hs with

[formal prism]

lmao yeah

[normal jetty]

(That’s my main source of motivation)

fr i used to get trolled in high school cuz everyone thought i was stupid, now every few months i go on peoples linkedin and check in where they're interning

i'm doing the best so far

toxic probably but pretty motivating ngl

[normal jetty]

I had to transfer unis

Cuz I failed out kind of

Then ended doing better than some ppl at my first uni

[formal prism]

u can transfer after failing out?

[normal jetty]

Not fail out But I didn’t make post

[formal prism]

oh i see

[normal jetty]

So switched unis for cs program

[formal prism]

i have like 4 friends who switched schools cuz they didn't make the cs cutoff

(i go to ubc)

[normal jetty]

Ya it’s stupid

[analog current]

[formal prism]

yeah

[normal jetty]

There’s ubc ppl who are math majors getting zon

[formal prism]

for domestics

[formal prism]

yeah there are

[normal jetty]

At the same time as cs ppl can’t get a job

[analog current]

its like right there 😭

idrt it matters

[worthy orbit]

they choose the cutoff at the end of the year just so 33% can make it. I remember the cutoff ended up being really high* during covid

[formal prism]

where's my zon offer 😦

[normal jetty]

The only problem with Math major is U won’t get Tn visa

[analog current]

youre ubc math?

[normal jetty]

Ahlie Where’s Zon

This year they’re hard af

[formal prism]

no ubc cs

[normal jetty]

They are making sure they can only take interns they have head count for ROs

Unlike previous years

[formal prism]

major matters wtf?

[normal jetty]

Yeah when I found that out

I switched schools lmao

[formal prism]

LOL

good idea

[normal jetty]

If u get a job at Tesla , and some places

They are nice enough

To put u in Scientific Technician category

[formal prism]

rather work at a mcdonalds in utah than in ontario

[analog current]

i have an offer rn to some extent they are being strict this year ya

he is like an iceberg

Wonder if it is prefer to delay grad for IT analyst at TD or grad with no offer?

What is prefer approach for this economy?

I should clarify this. I am a would be intern at the TD bank..

literally what the fuck do these people want i stg

[stable ravine]

L3 is entry level?

[stable ravine]

senior with entry lvl pay

[quartz ridge]

Hi guy

I make a wonder here again

Is it possible to get a L4 spot as a new grad?

[grave light]

l4 doesn't really have meaning outside of the context of a particular company

[quartz ridge]

So I mean a swe 2

Not a swe 1?

[grave light]

probably not as a new grad

[ashen mason]

L1 is their entry level?

[storm stream]

That would make sense 😭

[ashen mason]

L3 is ng at G. L4 is ng at zon. MSFT is L59?

[real island]

💀

[zenith eagle]

do share the story

[warm rock]

random question but does being one of the first people who apply to a job actually help?

[eternal night]

Oh ya basically some dude pinged Jassy in the north american interns channel then shortly after if you clicked his slack profile it said deactivated or something

[drifting shore]

Ye

[eternal night]

Then some admin came in the channel and perma locked it

So they had to make a new one

[drifting shore]

time u apply >>>>>

[warm rock]

dang, so recruiters only look at the first few ones?

that’s lame

[short marsh]

No, but they look at the first few with less expectations

[kind hazel]

ya the guy deliberately ignored my qs lmao

or like everyone he just ignored the last sentence of an email

but its just gonna be 1 interview no leetcode

[warm rock]

interesting, ty

[kind hazel]

gonna bomb it for sure tho

[fossil field]

peeps please apply to local companies

you'll get a job much faster and easier

look at places 20km around you and put ur address in ur resume, they will see you are close and you can make it to work and ur more likely to get hired

no leetcode bullshit

no competeting with 10k+ applicants if not more

[broken whale]

bruh

who is telling u all this?

[fossil field]

people who i know got jobs like this

[broken whale]

it prolly pays 🥜

[fossil field]

it prolly pays more than 0

which is the case for a lot of people in here

[broken whale]

fax but not a lot of ng postings

[fossil field]

its ur first job (talking to new grads) ur not gonna get ur dream job, get ur foot in the door

stop applying to new grads

apply to all besides senior

[broken whale]

?

what

how will u get an interview bro

[fossil field]

you shouldnt be apply to just new grad

[broken whale]

if it says 2+ exp required

[fossil field]

yea that doesnt mean it strict lol if they like you or have room in the company they will hire you

i applied to intermeddiate roles and i got interviews from there more than new grad applications

[broken whale]

i highly doubt it but if u say so boss man

[fossil field]

i mean thats how i got my job and how tons of other new grads i know

if u keep doing the same thing uve been doing and you havent been successful its time to change ur approach

apply to local companies, youll get job much faster and easier

[broken whale]

i am extending grad and farming internships

[fossil field]

seriously no 4 round and leetcode bullshit

[fossil field]

nice!!! keep getting intern experience and not full time!!! much better for ur career

[broken whale]

huh?

watchu mean bruh

[fossil field]

sarcasim

[broken whale]

i got interviews at good companies:

[fossil field]

graduate and get full time

intern intervies?

[broken whale]

even tho i dont make. it, i'll still get experience of interviewing at big tech

[fossil field]

lol okay but point is graduate and get real job and full time experience

[broken whale]

huh?

[fossil field]

ur career and future u will thank you

[chilly steeple]

Just get a job

Do what u please

[broken whale]

i got cisco and G coming up. i'll take either one . altho i would love the big G

[chilly steeple]

Good stuff

[warm rock]

i also find that local companies (which most likely are smaller) are much more selective about who they let in because of their budget

but that’s just what i’ve seen

[chilly steeple]

Fr?

[broken whale]

proof or cap
