[azure junco]

sankeymatic

[magic cave]

Finally the extroverts will inherit the CS

[stone osprey]

probably tbh networking important evrywhere

[azure junco]

i got all my offers from cold applying 💀

[stone osprey]

introverts will still get quant

[crystal comet]

extroverts always have a benefit

[stone osprey]

networking good for midsize

[stone osprey]

man probably stacked

[thorny palm]

as far as I can guess rn there is too much number gap between the people who interviewed & offered at rbc. i dont think it has to like these much so something is cooking, maybe i can be wrong dont know

[stone osprey]

ye there is

but i think they have two pools cusec and non cusec

cusec limited amount people idk about non cusec

[thorny palm]

yeh after all is all about headcount

[solid flame]

[quartz ridge]

hi all

i have a query

can someone be a recipient?

[crystal comet]

in interview?

oh yeah some people skipped to the technical interview or something right

[vague totem]

i did the forget ur password then relogin thingy does this mean anything?

[wary tundra]

I don't think so, seems like everyone has that 😂 nice default behaviour telling everyone they're on growth part

[magic cave]

They're making people do an OA and technical now? 🤯

[magic cave]

What's good

[vague totem]

r they even giving out more technicals? i feel its over from monday they gave out how many they needed

[wary tundra]

well they said last date to hear back is the 15th

so may still have a chance

but who knows

[quartz ridge]

yeah so my question is

should i prefer BMO or Dayforce?

is Dayforce any good (formerly Ceridian)

how good is this company compared to say RBC or Cisco or Datadog?

@safe light

[zenith eagle]

i do gotta say shop ui always on point

[weak gazelle]

ceridian > Datadog

ceridian > RBC > Cisco > Datadog

[quartz ridge]

wait how so?

[weak gazelle]

its a hedge fund based in NYC

[quartz ridge]

so DataDog > Netflix?

datadog > meta?

r u sure?

lol

[weak gazelle]

yea

lol

datadog > netflix

[quartz ridge]

wait how though

[weak gazelle]

but ceridian > datadog

[quartz ridge]

why is datadog good

i dont get it at all lol

[weak gazelle]

and rbc > netflix

[quartz ridge]

its just cloud monitoring

i dont think its goodl ol

[weak gazelle]

dayforce > cisco

?

[quartz ridge]

its kinda like splunk

[weak gazelle]

i just said

ceridian > datadog

rbc > netflix

dayforce > cisco

ceridian > datadog

netflix > meta

yea

lol

[quartz ridge]

wait so how good is Dayforce then

[weak gazelle]

rbc has real value

[quartz ridge]

i got a callback from them

[weak gazelle]

rbc is literally a bank

lol

tf does netflix do

[quartz ridge]

how did u judge dayforce as being bad tho

[weak gazelle]

i agree that datadog is good

bur rbc > datadog

netflix is mid

[quartz ridge]

@safe light can u explain how u judged dayforc as bad

[weak gazelle]

ceridian > netflix

[quartz ridge]

what would be a similar compnay to dayforce/ceridian?

[weak gazelle]

HRT

HRT would be similar prestige

mfw bro literally thinks TC == prestige

smh

lol

ceridian is pipeline to radix trading

ceridian rejects end up at apple

[quartz ridge]

this for canada?

[weak gazelle]

also pretty sure that's monthly TC

[real island]

[weak gazelle]

there's no way u don't knojw ceridian

it's < 5 on pretige rankings

[stable ravine]

blud doesn't know ceridian is now dayforce

[weak gazelle]

same thing

dayforce >>>>>> salesforce

[quartz ridge]

it got rebrnaded

to dayforce

[stable ravine]

tru

[weak gazelle]

engineering culture at ceridian is top notch

[quartz ridge]

how do u get datadog

interivew tho

i dont get it lol

[weak gazelle]

it's simillar to RBC engineering cullture

[stable ravine]

datadoge>>>>>>datadog

https://www.datadoge.com/

[weak gazelle]

they don't have egneral applications

you usually get reached out

[weak gazelle]

@quartz ridge works there!!

He would be happy to help you

[quartz ridge]

Is Boosted.AI hot?

[rancid wolf]

If you're not in a major city then it's fine, but in any big metro area that's probably pretty tight money wise if you're living alone. Not so bad if you have a partner or roommate

[fresh fog]

makes sense

[fresh fog]

best country in the world idk what you mean 👀

[worldly ridge]

Happy chinese new year guys

Hope you gusy have good dim sum today

[fresh fog]

Right, it's where I live and anything under 70k is meh

[mint gorge]

This guy spends all his cash the moment he gets it

[rancid wolf]

Nah I have a high savings rate, I'm saying if you're alone in Toronto or Vancouver with 2500+ for rent (can obviously find cheaper / have roommates but I specified alone) 60k is gonna be tight

Montreal is an exception for Canada imo, not many comparable rent markets compared to population

[analog current]

Anyone done the one way video interview with Canadian National Railway?

Glassdoor says it's 4 questions of 2 mins length but the email says budget 60 to 90 mins which seems quite a lot

[fresh fog]

Yeah Montreal. If you live alone, it's only an okay income

Ohh I forgot to mention that our taxes are very high which is why this gross income isn't that beautiful to me (I'm not complaining I love taxes)

[fresh fog]

It's not an income you struggle with but it's definitely not a crazy income in big cities

[worldly ridge]

@idle plover thought on 60k? u need a 90 percent SWR at age 65 ?

J’ai toujours eu le oa, mais j’ai jamais pu traversé cette étape

[dusk ibex]

godamn

I think the OA is luck

[turbid crater]

Je pense aussi et ça a l’air difficile pour un rien

[dusk ibex]

I finished my interviews but their website says need to be able to work in the location of position

[turbid crater]

Oh je vois

[fossil field]

yes, you wont be finding remote jobs in 2024

[dusk ibex]

Ig we'll see after i talk with recruiter

[cursive walrus]

thanks for reminding 💀 i forgot to apply

[drifting shore]

did u lie on ur application?

[cursive walrus]

wait is the posting still up? i think i saw it somewhere recently

[dusk ibex]

No i didnt

And my resume is not stacked

[dense frigate]

OMG I'm fking mad.

The goddamn Cohere and BDO interviewed me last week and until NOW, the fking CNY day, no updates, no offer, no refusal.

[drifting shore]

i really dont think they take canadian interns in the us

[dense frigate]

Oh.

I felt like a fish waiting to be cut.

[dusk ibex]

i prayge

[drifting shore]

Contact ur recruiter before the next interview

their process is super scuffed

[dusk ibex]

Oh i am done interview

I am talking with recruiter on tures

[drifting shore]

ik the recruiter put a us applicant in a new process of the vancouver role after he was rejected

[dusk ibex]

[drifting shore]

Both interviews?

[dusk ibex]

ye

[fresh fog]

They can go to 30$/h for internship if you have alot of credits

That's what I was told today

[magic cave]

I had an intact offer for $40

Internship, data engineering team

But they are 35hr/week

Which means you lose an entire week of wages every 2 months

[sour lark]

BDO is great

[dense frigate]

Any infos about them?

[sour lark]

For intern pay is 70k annual 5 days off (in a four month term) + extra day off every stat holiday pretty chill environment operating more euro standards make your own hours outside of 10-3 and opportunities to make big contributions depending on your projects you may be working on multiple throughout the term. You might also get some government security clearance which is kinda cool

[tough knot]

How many past internships did you have? Were they data related?

[tough knot]

Is this for fall or summer

[dense frigate]

All summer.

[tough knot]

how was bdo interview

[dense frigate]

Very simple? 3sum then N sum.

[stable ravine]

n sum?

nvm

[tough knot]

feels so weird doing leetcode after taking a break

[dense frigate]

TBH 3 sum's really to my surprise.

I expected something way harder than that.

lol if you think its bad now, the recession effects just started. We got a long ways to go

[stable ravine]

worse than this? 💀

https://tenor.com/view/skeleton-burning-hell-pain-gif-17379863

[fossil field]

Yes.

[steep crow]

Based on what

[fossil field]

Literally simple economics. We are in recession which means higher unemployment and we need to have deflation and make it more expensive to borrow which makes business invest a lot less and cut back. Recessions last for a long time especially this one since we really overprinted money and overborrowed by allowing nearly 0% interest rates. Everything is overvalued meaning everything is more expensive and only way to bring it down is monetary policy.

shit is just getting started

possibly this recession will last at least 2 years, thats how much the 2008 one lasted before cpi came to normal but we are still recovering from 2008 lol we just pushed the full crash further down the road

[crystal comet]

all i'm hearing is i'm graduating into a post recession economy 🔥

[fossil field]

bruh dont you get it, you hit a peak before dropping

and theres been no srs drop in a lonnnggg time

and when u have stock market all time high and layoffs keep increasing you know somethings not right

aka economy is shit

[worthy orbit]

yea but theres way more ppl applying to tech jobs compared to pre 2020

[lost lark]

In canada? No

😂

[halcyon arrow]

Not yet

[magic cave]

Perspective is crazy

I was fairly discouraged this year because of my low hit rate for offers, but then I showed other people and they started gassing me up, asking me for resume critiques and interview advice

[worldly ridge]

@idle plover

[idle plover]

my team is making a fucking LUDICROUS amount of money

like it is fucking ridiculous

[worldly ridge]

has anyone done the OA of Deloitte, and got response to do next round of interview ?

[timber smelt]

is anyone else struggling to get a job

i can't even get interviews

this is wilf

[real island]

For intern or NG?

[timber smelt]

NG

I have 1 yr work experience at a big tech company

[real island]

NG market is bad rn yeah 😢 everyone ik struggling to get NG

Try applying to jobs in the states if you can

Nvidia has some NG roles being posted on a rolling basis

[timber smelt]

states is auto rejection

bc im canadian

so i stopped trying

[half kraken]

I’m struggling as an intern, even though I have 16 months experience from 4 work terms and had my resume reviews by leads ):

I heard there’s over 50% fewer postings than last year

[turbid crater]

How important do y’all think system design is for a 3rd year student ? Given this economy should I prioritize it as much as leetcode ?

[lapis tide]

no

[stone osprey]

Sounds about right

Last year there were a lot of postings

[real island]

Nah

Id only do it if you land interviews for companies that are known to ask it

[turbid crater]

I see

[real island]

Behavioural >= Leetcode >= non coding technical > OOP design > system design imo

[turbid crater]

Thank you for the answer ML gang

[stable ravine]

ml gang supremacy

[turbid crater]

I can’t really practice oop so I’ll just start doing leetcode hards 🥹

I see

[lapis tide]

why cant you practice oop

[turbid crater]

Because there’s no platform that has oop problems except for few leetcodes

[crystal comet]

it's actually possible to learn things independently from leetcode

[turbid crater]

Hmm

I feel like this is more intuitive for Java folks than python chads

But I’m square on most of these, I don’t know overload and override tho

[lapis tide]

I got a question for all yall new grads that still dont have a job yet. Do you guys know oop? Like if i told you can you make a Person class for a bank could you do it without googling solution? Could you access apis in ur code and use it (weather api/open ai for examples) and do something with them? Do you understand some sql and db relationships? If i told you to design a table could you do it or query a table?

[real island]

I’d say just search up problems like tic tac toe, parking lot, etc

[lapis tide]

tic tac toe 🤣

[real island]

LMAO

I got asked that in an interview

[lapis tide]

crazy

where

[real island]

Nvidia 🤣

[lapis tide]

🤣

[turbid crater]

WTF

[lucid loom]

Legit

Good morning people, lovely market for new grads today isn’t it

[timber smelt]

might acc rope if i don't get a new grad offer. can't handle being such a dissappointment

the fact that my internship experience aint eeven baddd

[lucid loom]

Lol

Bro

My internship experiences r good

And I’m getting railed

Idt it makes a difference in the current market

But it’s not that deep

Just wait a little til it gets better and it should be fine

^^

[lost lark]

Bruh

Its very useful

[real island]

Nvidia sponsors

Have to target companies that sponsor

Also

You can use TN

so just say you don’t need sponsorship (I think that’s how it works probably better to confirm with someone who knows)

[timber smelt]

i'm pretty sure we need to say we need sponsorship

[fluid harness]

would u say ur authorized to work but u need sponsorship

[magic cave]

Man I studied sys design for Intuit and they ain't even ask me

[lucid loom]

The market is strong tbh

If ur not getting a job it’s ur own fault

(I love holding shareholder meat)

[lapis tide]

are you providing value to shareholders?

[lucid loom]

I constantly edge them

So yes

But yo on some real shit

R most of us just not gonna have a job

Cause I don’t think companies are benevolent enough to give a shit and come back in a year and be like oh we didn’t forget about y’all here’s a role made for y’all

[fresh fog]

data engineering is usually more paid than swe right ?

[real island]

Not sure

It that makes sense I think

[magic cave]

I thought data engineering is easier

[terse burrow]

Whats your guys opinion on doing devops developer role

Is it worth if its a big name like samsung

“Top companies” is too vague

[tight gale]

No reject yet, there's a chance

[kind hazel]

[fluid harness]

[magic ether]

Oh new grad, no idea

[quartz ridge]

That’s liek coinbase level

[lunar sandal]

excuse me, can you change your name? You're infringing on the ML trademark by not having a prefix

-from AndreML

[fossil field]

um not from andreML

[quartz ridge]

No I’m meek OG ML…

[fossil field]

i need a vacation

[lunar sandal]

get back to work

[fossil field]

😦

[quartz ridge]

hi all

quick query

should we have projects if you have experience?

[gentle palm]

in my humble opinion, yes. Esp those which have users or open-source contributions

[quartz ridge]

what about after u start work full time?

is it still worth

let

say a hypo

where u have 2 yoe

then do u still want project?

[barren sinew]

I don't think so

[fallen mason]

Yo what questions do you typically ask engineers when you dm them on LinkedIn about a position?

[fossil field]

yes you should have at least 1 where its not just something basic and something you continously work on and improve, a passion project

You can talk about it and the tech you used and it will really show off your skills besides just work

and you could eventually turn it into a business

[quartz ridge]

ncie one

that sounds good

[real island]

“Can you plz hire me?”

[quartz ridge]

i have one more query

is it prefer to use jakes resume or custom ?

what is better nowadays?

[lucid loom]

Rope

Because no job for u harhar

[quartz ridge]

i only have 1 internship and it was basiclaly unpaid

now a new grad

for 1 year

need a helping hand..

anyone heard of GaoTEK

[lucid loom]

Yes

[quartz ridge]

got a reach out for new grad but it's also unpaid

[lucid loom]

The most epic company

WHAT

wait how

[quartz ridge]

i dont know..

[lucid loom]

Unpaid new grad?

[quartz ridge]

its unpaid

as far as i know

yeah

but like 3 month trial period

[lucid loom]

That can’t even be legal

[quartz ridge]

if you pass the 3 month period

you get like 50k

[lucid loom]

Lol

Do not do that

[quartz ridge]

its like probation period

similar to WITCH

wipro infosys etc.

[lucid loom]

Yes but for overall shit

I mean at 50k u could work at a restaurant and match ngl

[quartz ridge]

im better off grinding neetcodes?

than doing that

but i want to hoen my coding sklills

[lucid loom]

You could also

[quartz ridge]

rigth now im super fond of python

like Flask/django type

[lucid loom]

Work on projects that u plan to release

Idk why that’s not an option ppl chase after more

[quartz ridge]

its high risk

[lucid loom]

Ur trying to learn anyway

And the wins r limitless

No it’s not at all

[quartz ridge]

low expected winrate

[lucid loom]

It’s high risk if ur leaving ur job for it

[quartz ridge]

i dont have a job though

[lucid loom]

But ur doing it to gain skills

[quartz ridge]

well ido

im a barista currently

can you recoemmend the best tech stack

[lucid loom]

But that’s what I mean

[quartz ridge]

for projects?

[lucid loom]

U have no loss to a potentially limitless win

Even if chances r small u lose nothing

That depends on what u wna make

I wouldn’t care so much about tech stack than I would a particular idea or project

Once u believe in what ur making the rest comes

At least in my experience tho it’s draining as shit

[quartz ridge]

r u a senior

or new grad too?

im just thinking

if i want to become an expert

what language is best

probaly java

[lucid loom]

An expert is what tho

[turbid crater]

Hey guys I’m doing a job for someone and I’m having a small issue. I’ve been using fire base to host the front end. But I was wondering if there is a platform that would allow me to send emails for free. I’m using sendgrid( twillio) to actually send the email but I need a platform to process the information on the from the form on the website to send grid.

Lmk if anyone has any ideas on this. Thank you!

[lucid loom]

U can’t just become an expert of everything

[weak gazelle]

lmfao

ML larping

is crazy

he probably makes more than this channel combined

[lucid loom]

Tf is larping

[weak gazelle]

when someone works at FAANGMULA and dooms

@NUT

larping ^

[lucid loom]

I use Zoho for thé exact same thing w Firebase email triggers

It’s free up to a small amount

But I think u gotta pay for virtually all of them ngl, Amazon is pay as u go tho

Oh

[weak gazelle]

yea like @ML makes 800k at Uber or smth

lol

[lucid loom]

Why’s bro trolling

[weak gazelle]

Uber >>>>>>>> Google

@quartz ridge stop trolling

[quartz ridge]

what is zoho?

[weak gazelle]

lol

[lucid loom]

Uber canada is still mid

Nah I kid

But the US packages r so much stronger

It’s insane

[weak gazelle]

Uber is goated

lol

i know this guy at my uni who did Uber

intern

[lucid loom]

Uber US is different gravy

I did uber

SF HQ was nuts

[quartz ridge]

i prefer using firebase auth

[weak gazelle]

yea and he did uber career prep too

lol

[quartz ridge]

for most things

[turbid crater]

I see, Thank you! I didn’t know fire base had email triggers I’ll look into it

[lucid loom]

Compared to canada

[weak gazelle]

he got return

to uber

crazy cracked kid

[quartz ridge]

u can use web hook

for this

that is what i would use most likely

[weak gazelle]

damn cracked lol

[lucid loom]

Yeah it’s cool if ur using Firestore but u gotta use SMTP server to send which is why I use zoho

Honestly tho

[weak gazelle]

i didn't know uber had career fellowship

actually

[lucid loom]

The difference between ca and us

Is jsut dumb as fuck

It’s the largest gap

[weak gazelle]

@lucid loom did u get RO

[quartz ridge]

u know what i prefer tho

react + graphql

is the best combo

[lucid loom]

Nope my org got shut down lmao

Like I had one

[quartz ridge]

graph ql is just so much better

[lucid loom]

And then I didn’t

[quartz ridge]

than using rest apis

[turbid crater]

I see thank you!

[weak gazelle]

damn

wtf

my friend's org also got shut down

[crystal comet]

lol graphql

[weak gazelle]

that's crazy

[lucid loom]

Yeah it was an epic turn of events

[quartz ridge]

graphql will take over

almost all tools int he industry

[lucid loom]

Love having a job and then not

[quartz ridge]

its prob number 1 revolutionary tool

but i would include something like jenkins

[lucid loom]

Tbh I’m not really that bothered

[weak gazelle]

did u do any internship before uber

[quartz ridge]

hihg up on the list as well

[lucid loom]

Yeah

[quartz ridge]

either graph ql, jenkins or something like ci/cd

[lucid loom]

But I’m not particularly looking for a job

[quartz ridge]

all are life changing once u learn them

[weak gazelle]

which

[quartz ridge]

for eaxmple

[crystal comet]

in what time span

[lucid loom]

I really wna do m’y own shit

[quartz ridge]

the different stages

[quartz ridge]

2024

these are some of the state of art

tooling

[lucid loom]

So unless it’s something exceptional idrc

[quartz ridge]

i actually recommend docker as well

[lucid loom]

IBM

[quartz ridge]

for beginners

[crystal comet]

of everything in tech rn graphql is the most revolutionary?

[lucid loom]

And I definitely don’t wna go there

[quartz ridge]

who are new to containers

[weak gazelle]

wait NUT

[quartz ridge]

yeah

[weak gazelle]

dude

[quartz ridge]

it will replace REST apis

completely

[weak gazelle]

you're the friend i'm talking about

[quartz ridge]

in the next

[weak gazelle]

that's crazy

[quartz ridge]

few years so

[lucid loom]

Wait what how

[weak gazelle]

did u do career prep too

at uber

[quartz ridge]

i think learning how to use graph ql

[lucid loom]

Yes

[weak gazelle]

wt

[quartz ridge]

will be very valuable

[weak gazelle]

wtf

check my prev messages

[quartz ridge]

in the next couple years

since rest will

[weak gazelle]

you're literally

the friend i'm talking about

to you

[quartz ridge]

be completely phased out

[weak gazelle]

that's crazy

[lucid loom]

LOOOOOL

[quartz ridge]

like rest has

no benefits

over grpah ql

that i can think about

off top of mind

[lucid loom]

Yeah but I got kinda lowkey fucked tho

[quartz ridge]

like why make

[lucid loom]

It wasn’t really a fair call

[quartz ridge]

a round trip

[crystal comet]

yeah idk

[quartz ridge]

or multiple calls

to a service

[weak gazelle]

@quartz ridge

[lucid loom]

And my manager tried to hard to fight them on it

[quartz ridge]

when u can just

[crystal comet]

kinda dropped off

[weak gazelle]

you should try joining cohere

[quartz ridge]

make a single call

[weak gazelle]

they liek people liek you

[quartz ridge]

this is like a stock

[lucid loom]

So ML was trollling fr

[quartz ridge]

it will climb up quick

it will dip

and then fly up soon

[weak gazelle]

@quartz ridge is staff at uber

lol

[lucid loom]

Bruh

[quartz ridge]

u have ot look at

[lucid loom]

R u deadass

[weak gazelle]

ye

[quartz ridge]

overall trend man @crystal comet

definitely

going upwards

[weak gazelle]

he's prev Google and Apple

[lucid loom]

Transfer to the US @quartz ridge

[crystal comet]

why are you coping so hard in graphql's favour

[quartz ridge]

bro its changing landscape of rest

[crystal comet]

it's a somewhat interesting tech that fits a specific niche

[lucid loom]

BRO if I show u the difference in US and canada
