congrats on intel, amd, arm, nxp, or ti
anyone have tips for Scotiabank interview SWE?
lmao part time hs swe intern position making more money than 80% of our swe intern positions https://www.linkedin.com/posts/kevinliao2003_high-school-software-engineering-intern-activity-7163705989643386880-E8UM?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop
Whats the Stripe intern method
what if i use Amazon Pay for Business instead
Can I roll my own payment system?
Thanks meekML
Thanks just applied!
Do they do J1 visa
is amazon still sending oas or is it over 
The elections in states gone be funky now
It’s over
ur right
has anyone here interviewed for demonware as a swe intern?
congrats on microsoft
gpt is getting dumber they say
Gemini 1.5 apparently beats GPT4
10M token ctx window
Its over
SWE as a profession will disappear within a few months
thats crazy

Humanity will disappear within a few years
real talk tho, if we actually create an AI capable of coding, what job will be safe ?
cashiers ?
but token limit != performance
It's just one aspect
It could be rlly shit and have 100M token context window
you are literally gemini
I am Gemini Ultra Pro Max
hello
apple fan boi detected
I am aware, I never said it was
But they also claim it performs better than GPT4
they're wrong
Hi everyone! I need me a resume advice. Would appreciate any advice.
that white space larger than drizzy's grizzly
what exactly are you referring to by drizzy's grizzly
anyone heard back for confluent internship
@weak gazelle would absolutely appreciate what you mean by drizzy’s grizzly. lol
drake
what about drake
what do you mean by schlong
@weak gazelle is there like too much white space on the resume. I am kinda confused.
yea
trolling or being fr
@weak gazelle is there a better I could better improve it. Please do share because I have applied on tons of job already and I don’t get any call back.
just use jake's resume template
it must be on here somewhere
search it up

@weak gazelle Thank you so very much for your feedback. Lastly, what do you think about the work experience section.
can we apply to this or its not for canadians
No you can’t. DB offline no failover or DR.
??
ye
Ok so my query
Is this
If u are a hiring manager
And u have two candidate ok just make a hypo
Candidate A is a Nokia 3x intern with a compiler project
Candidate B is a Apple intern with a Math award from high school and 3 AP class top score
Who u choosing here?
Consider urself as roleplay for hiring manager @magic ether
having both of them fight
see who wins
how many leets
b, not close
3x intern tho.
how
He could still be doing or just finishing the internship?
candidate c
nokia 3x is a red flag
also trick question because i'm the only person to ever have a compiler project and i'm not 3x nokia
how ? it shows the company wanted to keep you which is a good sign
i see it more as no one else wanted you
or you're scared of change
should be diversifying
an internship is 4 month... how often do you have to change lol
wdym
I agree it's probably better to diversify but I don't think it's a red flag
because again, the company wanted to keep you, meaning you're decent at what ur doing
true
Apple first internship is crazy though
I say that but I interned at a no name for the past year
And I'm not planning on leaving
also that u hav skill issue cuz u cant find a better internship
💀
Why would u leave an internship for another company
Better to show commitment for ur future employers
Than just permanently hopping companies
Wouldn't say it's "better" to show commitment especially for internships
But I don't see how it's a red flag to stay at the same company lol
Both have values
If you got offered google and you were at some no name, you wouldn’t take?
not even no-name
some midsized company
Well depends how good my manger and teammates are
And the tech stack and impact
Really depends on
Remove the small company from resume
Lot of things
Pretend I committed to google the entire time
no-name so 0 impact
Is google even that good? Bloomberg seems better?
Bloomberg is above meta or google
he is trolling
Or no
💀
I personally would but not actively looking for a better internship doesn't show lack of skillz what 💀
When did I say that
I’m just saying me personally
That's the whole argument here
I would take a committed 3x Nokia vs a guy who won rng who got Apple
That’s just my take
Nokia is good and 3x shows return offer
How do I rng Apple
Apple is just get lucky to work on Vision Pro and can leetcode
Doesn’t show any ability to hold down job and get return offer
I would take the better one which I would assume is the nokia one tbh
Just my opinion though my two cents
maybe you’re right, needs more info tbh
i don't think its a red flag, but interning at a more well known company >>>>>>>>> showing commitment

I think the avg recruiter would take Apple if they both have the same skills
As in know the same langs
that’s what I assumed ^
same
if the dude only knows how to leetcode, maybe not lol
all the zon interns i asked said that they had a bad exp
none of them would return if they have a better offer
you're probably right
what's the reasoning for interning at the same place 3x tho
if it's not your literal dream company + job + team
fr, unless u entered retirement mode
I stayed at the same company because they were offering part time until I finished my bachelor... Didn't feel like doing other internships and figured a 2 year "intern experience" while at school was better than interning at 3 diff companies
I’d stop applying after Apple though 😳
Also it allows me to finish my bachelor faster
congrats on apple
thanks man
that makes sense
also guys with the current state of the market, I would argue that commitment at no-names could be valuable
but idk
don’t worry
I’ve determined that the market will get better in 2026
np, prepare for massive google recruitment
i wonder what happens in 2028
2028 is AGI, 2029 is collapse of society
ofc not
I’m from 6ix, mandem stop playing wid me @drifting shore
No the hell youre not LOL

B
anyone know how paypal swe intern interview is like?
I should have asked earlier but it's tomorrow 💀
damnn
gl dude 🙏🙏
tyty😭
I think it’s close because of 1 year experience be 4 month better company would u agree
They pay for it?
Nah I disagree
Nah
this is very good point
Thanks
Main idea is that number of years of experience plays a big role in hiring
Why do you think so many international 5 YOE fill junior jobs?
Because YOE is king in our industry
Think about Anduril 4 month intern vs Senior Developer from Pune, India , who are you hiring as a SWE 1 at OpenText?
precisely
You get the argument?
option C
?
yes i understand well
Like ur saying 4 month internships r bad
?
Depends tbh
Experience does not trump all lol
Quality of experience matters as well
But a 4 YOE vs intern
Is no brainer right
No I was being facetious
I just onboarded the entire term at Msft and they paid me the entire time
What is facetious
Why would u do that though
What if I could play League instead
I got dia
Nah
you should hve worked harder and did more overtime
its your fualt
now your job is outsourced to philipines
and AI
I thought he worked at cohere 😭
He does
He got fired from gaotek and now works at cohere
😔
Gaotek is good lol
Stop just shaming it
It’s a valid company
Hi all
Have query..
Gaotek internship 12 months or Msft 4 months
which semiconductor
i think gaotek is slightly lower on prestigehunt though
tsmc
Why I alr been refused by 1password...
I submitted the application the night the position posted and I have strong bg......
How does these companies work I'm so confused.
they pick out of a hat
Umm
1 password has no lc
It’s pure behavioural….
If u cannot pass 1 pass u cannot pass even AutoDesk ……
I just want to know why and the criteria of picking up candidate.
maybe grad date, num of exp, types of companies you worked for. Thats what I would think about if they rejected quickly
probs grad date would be biggest one?
oh I misread, you didn't get rejected in one day, you applied day posting came out
Someone I know has pm position at amd, it's pretty good
Grad date is Jan 2025.
Num of exps:2
FAANG fulltime in Bay Area and coop in Boston.
tough market man, too many apps to go through, they might not even get to yours, otherwise there's just simply someone who has even stronger bg :/
STILL NOT Qualified?
maybe you're too qualified : )
Yes, and 16 months I think
wait are you a US citizen or working in the US with an F1 visa
F1
why not 3 faang fulltimes in bay area
red flag
did you get roblox in hs?
does canada have any immigration rules for people studying in US on F1 and interning in CAN 🤔 ?
I'm just finding intern instead of new grad
Bro, just intern
I'm studying at Waterloo NOW
are you doing masters?
Yeah
does that have co-op
Yeah
sometimes companies want someone less experienced so they can mentor them, maybe ur too experienced : )
and they think you will ditch and go back to faang as soon as you get the chance
instead of taking their return offer
ik some companies (cough veeva) who don't like ex-meta or amazon interns
cuz they will leave as soon as big tech calls again
I mean who's not gonna leave immediately if a big name call u?
well like I said, someone without big tech, less experienced, driven and passionate to learn, and happy to return FT to 1password maybe
that is pre smart hiring descision, versus someone who just leetcode grinds to pursue big tech

if you have faang on resume and a boston company (datadog? hubspot?) shouldn't you just recruit for big tech
Wayfair
wayfair to jane street pipeline
I hope I can bro, only Amazon hiring externally until now.
Have u Heard anyone receiveing FAANG summer intern until now(applied externally)?
Nah it’s around same it’s a stealth startup
neftlix, apple, google step (doesn't apply to you), meta
U need 3 exp
Bro seriously?
no amazon
tier 1 faang
very exclusive
Very true but why Veeva specifically how do u know the?
Netflix hiring summer intern in Canada?
You applied too early
It makes you seem desperate
they hired some canadians for US roles
I AM DESPERATE 😭
G
you are the only person to call working at google working at faang
Why r u going from G to 1 pass
R u ok
That’s like going from a Lamborghini to a v6
That's a loooong story.
this will be you in 4 years pork
@dense frigate are u an intern?
That’s like going from IMO gold medal to community college reject
did you get destroyed by h1b? is that why you're doing masters at waterloo?
Isn't the G in FAANG?
yeah
Faang is for Amazon
yeah
Oh I got it
he is FT google turned intern
Ppl only say Faang for Amazon lmao
Like Top3 for the third one
Every other Faang company just say it
except amazon is top faang
lol
Amazon similar to 1 pass tbh
In prestige and pay lol
doesnt google move their h1b failures to waterloo office?
real
I think they lost h1b and doing masters
ah
Google Waterloo ain’t worth it
lmao tf
Gosh I felt sick
Some recruiters reached out but they're fulltime jobs
I just want an intern
do them simultaneously
I'll get y'all cohere referrals next year‼️
no i want gaotek
congrats on jane street
I don't work there
I have close friends in Cohere though but thanks
He didn't ask if anyone wanted to be recipient
It's too early.
My earliest graduation period is Jan 2025.

@dense frigate maybe you need to change the company name from the product to "Google" on Linkedin. I know some people Youtubers who use that company name lool
:l
@dense frigate is internship required for your program?
Fk I'm the one who did this
Coop program
But isn't YTB famous enough??
what is ytb
it is famous enough, but maybe the google query is stronger 🤔 , I am just speculating
youtube?
Yeah
lmao nice
I got into Faang but actually I'm a twitch streamer
xqc is that u?
lads
ty
its a shit offer but
good for career progression
mda
python swe

shotokan karate of america?
I’m also doing masters at loo. Finishing course by late August.
Not a lot of response man
🙃🙃
Did manulife get back to you?
Where did u do ur undergrad?
anyone know how long it takes to get all the j1 visa set up and all the documentation done?
sounds like this
FT or intern?
intern
What ur other offer? BMO?
Gaotek tbh but both G
R u gonna collect all 4 big banks before grad?
I have a query
Any candid recipient?
Don’t have cohere
Sorry
Do you want GaoTek?
Ok my query is this
Say u are a hiring manager
Quick hypo ok
is meek ok?
Meek is fine
i will be receptive to your query
Candidate A is a grad from UBC with 2 research and gaotek
what do they research?
Candidate B is Carleton grad with 3x Nokia and 1x Kinaxis
Who u choosing?
Research ML and systems engineering
How many times are you going to ask about hypo situations
It's not useful
Firstly, none of us are recruiting managers
It's highly dependent on the job, the company, and the actual skills
For example candidate A is better schoool and more research base
Plus the behavioral ability
Bro he is a troll
Second candidate has some ok level internship and longer YOE
ML you're annoying me
How is this troll
It's not productive
Ok
Please refrain from such questions thanks
I retract the query
they seek attention
may i pose a query for you ML
Yes boy
Please send ur query
Pose it now
say you had offer A for G but its waterloo 3 months
yes i think you are right
Good
😌
Be prudent in ur query
Soulsuck may remove u
Have meek while he is around
i will limit my queries to fewer than twenty tokens in soulks presnece
3month at openai or 24months at rbc with shitty pay?
Why would you do that
U do realize that right now market
Is heavily favour time right
So if u woke one month
And have no job after
What would u possibly do lol
Longevity matters
wdym longevity matters
anything you work on at openai would be infinitely more interesting
and having that name on your resume would guarantee you offers
And new recruiter will suspect u got fired
Since no one works at a company for one month
not if your title is intern or something
Btw how is ur compiler
Is it working?
i sure hope so
Do u make abstract syntax tree
yes
What IV do u have
iv?
IF
if?
Intermediate form
intermediate representation
Yes IR
wdym by what IR do i have
Which ones do u use
i have my IR
Which one?
i use mine
do you?
yes
AST is a more computer readable representation of source code
IR is a step you might have between an AST and compiler backend which you would use for optimization purposes or just for an easier format to work with
What is source code vs byte code
source code is whatever you wrote in your .js or .py or .c etc file
they're more readable to a computer
What about machine or byte code
because they're in a structured format
what about them
hard to explain byte code i guess you could just call it a binary source code representation
i don't have a linker no
So it changes ur source code into binary source code?
what does
why would i model my compiler after python
Python compiler
Oh what’s cpython
cpython is the canonical representation
So some python is compiled?
cython transpiles into C i think
What’s canonical is that like a compiler term
Bro u can’t use the word in the definition
well idk google what the word canon means then lmao
Is transpile just convert one language to another?
yes
What do u know about DevOps
Like istio or grafana?
Do u know these tech
Or Prometheus ?
i don't know much about them
Grafana is for broke boys who cant afford a real O11y stack
Same with prometheus
What is O11y
I see these tools
Are used a lot
For I see ability now
Observatory
**
occessibility
Observability
Yes
Is o11y
Observability
Like the most common ones I see
Is like grafana DataDog and Prometheus
You're forgetting a ton but sure
Oh and also Splunk
Which ones?
Chronosphere, Splunk, Dynatrace, Jaeger, Sentry, Highlight, New Relic
Splunk is one of the top ones also maybe cloudwatch logs
Why not just use one, does a company actually use all of these in one stack?
Congrats on sentry
What’s ur TC
You usually only need one or a few
Yea
Like FastAPI guy
I just rmb their Oa being hard
Good product
They use Clickhouse
Which I respect
Clickhouse on top for OLAP
fr 14k followers is like local company
real talent goes to databricks
not mid comapnies like sentry
They're not
cap fake and cringe @quartz ridge that's false
I know someone from my school got a job there
I got a lot of ads from sentry
As a new grad
stop spreaking false info lol @quartz ridge literally not funny
@quartz ridge no misinfo
fr
you did it again
No
I make a guess
fr holy fuck
Education guess
some people here may be discouraged when u say that loo is the only school in canada that can send people to cracked companies in the US
that's crazy
misinfo
Who
Ytber?
🫡 do ppl use fastapi in production? Reddit doesn’t like fastapi
Im sure someone does
Do you mean Reddit the company
Or redditors?
I've heard that it was good at a time
No redditors
But has lowk fallen off
Also the proj still has sponsors
I have only played rust on steam
Use a real framework like Django or Flask
Fast API is a newborn in the Python world
Not really a legitimate reason to discount it lol
It’s not ready to be in production. It’s not scalable like Java
Spring boot is much better
Than it
Are you saying Python isn't scalable?
Wont python be super slow for a scalable system
Idk I hate spring
No it won’t when u have millions of users
and if you're big enough to worry about it then you can figure it out then
👎
the best language for sclae is Haskell
I only know css

has anyone accepted those 12 month long co-op/internships and then just quick early?
That's what I made
It was a spaghett
Aperol is ab Amaro
seems like everyone is getting interview after oa
Damn really
Even if they dont ace the oa
I have to disrespectfully disagree
Check your DMs
Lots of people

many people are saying this
yo guys
is dev degree a good program
or is UW cs better?
anyone know about dev degree Carleton/York and know if it is good?
Athabasca > McGill > UW > Carleton > York > UofT > UW
yeah but dev degree specifically
seems to be a free way to get 4 years of shopify dev experience
before grad
But the athabasca name is reputed internationally
every single shopify dev degree is cracked on linkedin
i havent found a single one that didnt become senior 1 year after grad
Sampling bias
cause u get 4 years of exp while doing ur degree then + 1 year instant Senior role
and senior is 200-250k tc
so basically ur guaranteed a 200k+ tc after 1 year of grad
Is it the shopify degree that makes someone cracked or is it cracked people who break into dev degree
That's my yearly allowance over 4 years
Interesting, I actually didn’t know this
I’m applying to this scholarship rn that’s asking for me to relocate for 8 months, but I’m not sure if I can decline that tbh if I do win it
Since I already have an internship
Does anyone have advice on this, it’s like “pushing an offer” to another season 💀
Except, I don’t think I’ll actually work there, it wouldn’t work with my curriculum
I think they have remote but idk
I don’t want to work there, I just want scholarship money to pay for tuition
Honestly and respectfully 😭
I’m in uw se, there’s no breaks 💀 so i don’t think it would work
My current internship is also from a stronger company so idk man
yeah it's actually super worth to get dev degree. most people with dev degree just say they worked full time at shhopify (and lie on linkedin)
😭
the thing with UW is that u get 2YOE instead of 4 YOE for dev degree
but u have chance of working at 6 diff companies
dev degree is 100% more secure tho
u get gauranteeed 4 YOE, and most people get senior around 1 year after grad
since ur at same company for 5 years
which basically fits > 5 yoe
This is going to be controversial but I think that their stability is better than the average uw grad
I’m saying average
and if u look at overall outcomes of UW grads
most people end up not even at amazon
amazon is prob like a top 25% outcome for a UW grad
I never applied to dev degree myself since I wanted company diversity, however, it’s interesting to look at and a good option
I hear it’s very competitive
6k apps
50 per year
50 is size of 1 cohort and just single cohort per year
but guaranteed 4 yoe at Shopify
big name
and senior role very likely post grad
yeah uw se is around 2000 for 125 spots and cs is 300? For 13k applicants
yuh that must be very nice
let’s change spots
i do one semester of uoft cs
u do one of waterloo se
let’s do it 🙏
are you St. George
so the programs that give you free cash
are UW swe/cs and carlteon/york dev degree
rest is competitive
oh maybe ubc/uoft is also big edge
Sr role at Shopify pays less than a new grad role in the states
Or at least a sr role they would offer to a ng
In US you spend US dollars not a fair comparison
If you live in Canada you spend cad
If you live in Us you spend USD
It's still more
Yea
That applies to every company based in Us
Yea
All I’m saying is that dev degree is basically a cheat code
I think its fine
You get 4 YOE at Shopify and most people get senior title within 1 year of grad
Levels has senior at 160/170 base
I think co-op at UW is prob better from someone who is motivated
So while most Waterloo or top school grades are SWE 1 at a good/big tech company
Dev degree has senior in same time span
I doubt that theyre paying the same base though
To fresh grads
Also do they give sr?
Yah but dev degree is a pretty good paved path to that
I’d argue they do. Similar to rbc amplify grads
They actually get the role +pay
Not just role name
Because I know someone who did dev degree
Idt they got sr
No stock for Shopify but they get base and 15% bonus from what I hear
They got a slightly hire ng pay
What’s sr?
Same title
Hmm
Sr = senior
Yeah I mean within 1 ish year
Did some LinkedIn lurking most people get promo within 1-1.5 years post grad
So not right away
That's not really that good then
But quick promo while most normal grads need 4-5 years to hit senior
Think about it like this the Shopify dev degree part time internship counts as full time experience
While most companies don’t treat intern exp as YOE
A new grad at a quick promo company
Could get sr in 1.5~2.5 yrs
I’m pretty sure it’s title and comp tho..
Like when u get the senior title u legit get the senior pay
Not rly a point in just getting the title alone
But yes I agree that top talent and high discipline will still get better outcome at UW
Compared to a co-op program
remember to maintain high meek, ML
But dev degree seems to be a paved road to a senior position at Shop
- guaranteed work experience at a fairly good big tech company in Canada
Yeah its def goof
Im being meek no? @lapis tide
I just disagree that its better than co-op
keep it up
How they compare to external ng?
I think if you’re an average Waterloo student, dev degree is better. But for top students who can reach Jane street, Cit or Meta by 6th coop it’s not as good
But for people just hitting Zon by 6th dev degree is better/comparable imo
I rather work at zon lowk
Liek I see a fair share of UW grads that work at ok places like SAP or AutoDesk and then new grad Zon
Zon pays more
And the Shopify 4 YOE vs 2 YOE with diversity and fast promo to senior
Is def worth it for me
Cause once u get Senior title u can easily jump ship as a senior to another top company
Not necessarily true
You can be downleveled
Main thing about dev degree is u legit have 4 years of work experience
Since other companies may see 2yrs and not agree
U could get down leveled if u underperform on interview
But most likely u can get interviews for a senior position esp if ur already senior at a big tech
No recruiter is gonna view it as 4yoe
Im not sure thats true tbh

^ this lmao
I see downlevel happens a lot more when ur a startup or no name
No its the opposite
A startup is less likely to downleve
People actually been hiding their grad date and labelling their 4 internship YOE as permanent full time on LinkedIn
hi all, anyone from UW does those companies only hire 1 or 2 student on the waterlooworks ?
Than a company with a rigid structure
Startup to big tech more likely to down level
I mean moving from startup to big tech
They may test u for title inflation ykwim, that happened to my mentor who was an mit student and went from lead architect for a startup to senior swe at google
Sometimes big tech only treat big tech experience as valid exp
He was telling me about title inflation allat
Oh i thot u said the opposite and was confused
Yeah 100%, I think main thing is that u get the chance to prove urself as a senior
I see that as a pretty big arrange
Advantage**
@quartz ridge do you work at shop?
But for me I prefer to level up at a normal pace
What’s the point if u can’t pass background check?

No I don’t
They’re not lying on LinkedIn just lying by omission tbh about grad date
I do know multiple dev degree grads tho
It really is highly competitive. 50 students per year, 6k apps
But yeah you can really make it to the top from every school
Some schools just give you a lot more opportunities
From stalking their LinkedIn profiles?
irl lol
can i dm?
i had some follow ups @drifting shore
Sure
Guys I would love some advice
If I accepted and signed 12 month internship at AMD summer 2024 - winter 2025
But I hypothetically get an offer at a bigger tech company for a 4 months summer 2024
Is it worth to reneg the 12 month or is it like possible to somehow negotiate it to like an 8 month fall-winter after already signing off on it?
Yeah they do brain on the net. Hope that helps!!
Why larp
Yea swe full stack
cause he sad little pathetic man
go colect your foruth bank offer loser
RBC is not AMD
RBC, TD, SCOTIA, you are missing one
get the 4 bank exodia
imagine going on a date and then telling your date u work at abank
bruh it's over no?
yeah
why are you triggered?
i hae a query, reciipients?
