anyone get scheduled an onsite for stripe winter? im wondering if its possible to move it for summer
i have stripe winter onsite
also yes for non coop
Thank you! Are you in the process with them?
nah but i’ve seen off season from my school
how long does it take back to hear back from linkedin?
just finished
behavioral went very well
when was ur phone screen
?
technical was 1 easy (stumbled a lil), 1 med (wrote optimal in <5mins), while explaining everything
almost a month ago
my recruiter quit and i got ghosted so i messaged a random linkedin recruiter on linkedin
and then after 3 weeks a new recruiter reached out
What type of questions did you get asked? Mine is in an hr
both non-tagged lc
I meant behavioral, my technical got pushed to tmw
which position?
1 - 2 weeks
Most people I talked to said they hear back around 1.5 weeks after
so get ready to wait
i applied to full-stack winter iirc
but im hoping its for backend
pretty basic projects experiences
went p fast and interviewer was nice
oh okay, how long was it?
Did u take the whole 45
nah im worried about that took like 30mins
interviewer said it was fine and wanted just to chat with the remaining time
30mins + 15mins chatting
Oh its not a big deal I was just wondering cuz I doubt I can hit 45
i feel 50/50 about passing
they went p well overall but definetely had better
and my resume isnt very full-stack oriented
I feel like I could've done better on the tech portion cuz I didn't go to the optimal until followup discussions
Still have behavioral tom
glgl
it was honestly pretty fun
but always depends on interviewer
Anyone hear back from ddog yet
Ye just finished my behavioral
It was literally a conversation
Didnt feel like an actual interview
How y’all prepping for and structuring your behavioural answers
I’m quite literally socially inept
Literally didnt and im socially inept
I got asked why i made certain decisions in my projects
And i just explained my thoughts
Also why im trying to be swe
I said i like problem solving
Gist
I explained my start in it and how i got to where i am today and stuff
I think just literally show ur passion and nerding out might be the best way
Also dont make urself seem like a degen, make sure u talk abt an extracurricular
Ok bet tyty
they ask you about ecs?
nah, i brought it up so they know i have a little bit of a life
oh lol im a bit curious how you squeezed that in
is it tech related?
nah
interesting
everything else in my resume is tech related anyways
whenever i hear that question i immediately assume its just regarding technical background
my answer is mainly technical but i feel like you kinda miss on it if u only disclose that part
and not much abt you as a person
just my view tho
when you mentioned the ec did your interviewer give you a positive reception to that info?
yea they were interested in it
oh sick
altho i will say, linkedin behavioral is one of the weirder behaviorals ive done
my manager didnt like the script questions
lmfao
he gave me one and it was really weird
"where do u see full stack engineering in your daily life"
so they just ask you random curveballs
i had no friggin clue what to say to that
idk 😭 😭
he said that was a dumb question
he just asked abt my projects after that
it was like an actual conversation
idk if thats by intention or if the interview just went well to where it ended up like that
yea, he mainly asked abt the non-internship projects cuz i have 4 projects on my resume
oh did he pick random ones and ask you about it or was it more open ended where he was just like tell me about a project
open ended
asked me to choose a project i wanted to describe
we ended up talking abt 3 of them
and also my previous internship
oh i see
Are you interviewing for summer or winter?
If summer, you know how many people they have yet to hire?
@ancient jetty when was your stripe technical screen?
today
damn i had mine on Monday still waiting for response
linkedin is full for winter afaik
they been for a while i think
summer, no clue, altho they just filled all final interviews according to other ppl; it seems like the person who will be ur manager is the one who does ur behavioral
my interviewer specifically said i wouldn’t be in his team
oh i have no clue then how they are doing it
my hiring manager kept bringing up getting interns for his team
does everyone get hm chat for stripe?
Would it be too late to do databricks OA rn
Only if you pass on-site technical
definetly not true. Behavioral manager is totally random my friend
so hm = almost guaranteed offer?
i mean, he is a swe manager soo
🤷♂️
Anybody know how hard tesla interviews are? Is it team dependent?
well yeah behavioral could be your manager but theyre not related. Depends on team matching
like im a mobile engineer there, so my behaviroal was with a mobile engineer
BUT, that wasnt my actual manager
i mean, i can only speak to whoever i got interviewed by, but i guess so
intel planning 20k layoffs jesus christ
mby thats why my recruiter still hasnt sent me a contract after 2 weeks of verbal @@
my luck 😭
Ah okay.
Bro WTF
Microsoft
I heard roblox is opening for winter
yeah i saw a posting idk if its new tho
can u move summer -> winter ?
Every day, tens of millions of people from around the world come to Roblox to play, learn, work, and socialize in immersive digital experiences created by the community. Our vision is to build a platform that enables shared experiences among billions of users. This is what’s known as the metaverse: a persistent space where anyone can do just abo...
yooo thanks
@dusty portal @dusty portal
HUUUUGE
anyone heard from path ai after the OA?
you're welcome guys

you bagged summer offer right? might be able to move then
im also uw but i havent seen them on ww
amazon doesn't tend to move external offers to other seasons
usually just return interns bc it depends on the org
yo @frigid prism @rose void @slow valve if my first coop term is summer but i land something for the winter term can i delay/drop the school term in winter and do the internship instead?
while still being in coop when i return to loo
my org was chill with me returning for any season but don't think that's the case for other orgs
Do u know when they will open up?
my internship is dependent on a satisfactory reference check, but they didn’t ask me for references in the application. what does this mean?
didnt really hear ppl doing their first coop right after 1A, but you might wanna ask your advisor if you its possible to have a sequence change (unlikely that it'll go through imo, but worth a try)
ask your advisor
from what I know at least from ece they tend to not listen to requests as much for lower years
around same time as rn, but might be later
but it's chill later years
can i move after i signed offer
i dont think so, the offer you got is specifically for summer
you can only move start/end dates
i should switch to ece 😦
lmao
no
Roblox winter is only open for Co-op Schools 
F
i dont think my school offers co op for any major
privileged co op schools ):
Transfer to Waterloo and apply, easy
wait tf?????
im tryna move roblox to winter
It's only for co-op unis
technically i go to a coop uni but im not in the program
why
wdym why it's cause i want to graduate in 4 years
that's why... lol didn't know co-op is > 4 years
did anyone from datadog with recruiter AS get back to them
like bruh
i mean... usually after the hiring committee on thursday people got their offers on tuesday at the latest
kinda wack
Is the Roblox role only for people in coops
I emailed him yesterday at 4 asking for updated timeline no response yet
aight damn just giving my side of things relax

huh are you waiting on anything from AS
No
I just emailed him a couple questions
And I also asked for my itnerview feedback
ah ok
Ddog update from Andrew:
I am waiting on some final feedback from our engineering directors. I apologize for the delay on my end. Our directors are prepping for a conference next week so their time has been limited.
Hoping to have something soon.
Any updates on deadlines on your end?
(asked for updated timeline)
ur good
wait did you already have it scheduled or was it just like out of the blue lol
also why im not taking it
What u taking instead 👀
msft winter and goog summer
akuna > goog
L take + ratio
goog standard HCOL is already 220k tho
And with competing offers it can go up to 280K
No all HCOL is 220k
Seattle is mcol according to google
Seattle used to be 180K interesting
20K bump
So I assume HCOL is like 240K now
I’m staying in Canada for FT
someone said 250 max this year
I’m not comparing to US lol it’s about as high as I can get for Canada
they have like 8 employees there
and prolly just for important qrs lol
But I’ll interview for new grad bc I used to think it was only for seniors
See if I can finesse my way into Cit Toronto
No idea what to expect for pay tho
bc drw Canada pay is terrible
it’s significantly less than amazon
DoorDash bad wlb and I don’t see a good future for the company
Stripe’s never gonna ipo or by the time they do all my stocks will prolly have expired
yee
I’m gonna get msft to give me L60 and use that to get max Canada offer for goog 
Citadel has Toronto office???
I graduate 2024
oh don’t think you can start the process until you graduate/start working FT
It’s fine I’ll jump to HFT in a couple years 
senior at jump’s like 750k pretty pog
wtf
why does no one tell me this
oh right if they’re got work experience that’s not needed for them to graduate
they can start the process
but i “need coop to graduate” so my coops don’t count
Only my last internship will count so I graduate with 4 months of valid experience
@lucid lichen are you a past intern?
you going to HFT FT?

confirmed cannot move roblox summer to winter if not in coop
Do you know where for google yet?
Not even coop school?
my recruiter said only open to schools who require co op
What if u just lied
🤡
i mean she said i only qualify for the summer one despairge
i guess i can ask some more but i dunno what to ask
two 45 technical apple interviews b2b as my final later today god give me strength
Did u hear back? I have not
I wonder why Toronto isn’t considered hcol
canada
Tuff
You know what their max is?
Yeah im at roblox event
She said specifically for schools that require co op
Not fair ):
roblox recruiter just said if u pass OA they automatically move u to final interview
no resume screen apparently
where does resume screen happen then??
after final?
F
i hope my resume good enough
with nego max used to be around 190k cad
but seems salaries have been bumped up by 20K or so in the US
so could be over 200K
are people still applying for winter?
Yea northeastern is one. Well technically it requires an "experiential learning" which could also be a study abroad or a research, but like you go to neu for the coop so 99% of students do it
🧢
Why are they restricting schools? Tax purposes?
So they can pay Canadians less
NEU op
Dunno but by the email it seems so
I think non-loo people here are trying to move summer to winter
We'll see what they say
i tried already and got a no
Yeah but what about US schools like NEU?
Same
o really so sad
so would resume screen really be after final?
?? so they do resume screen before they u move to final?
yeah thats what im thinking lol
water water water
I dont think it was invite only
this is why math faculty better
When recruiter reached out for final, she sent me a few events they are doing
It was 1 hr long talking about what safety team does at roblox and then general q&a
They have all their events listed on ripplematch iirc
I would just double check with a recruiter and get an answer in writing
She just mentioned the winter co op very briefly
why (im in math fac)
yea buttttt u only have this privilege after first year so its still shitty for me and alot of co courses happen only in one term so that kinda sucks too
stats/cs students are the ones chilling for the most part
fuck u
acc
fuck co
i cant get a ura
dont we also have smthg like that
cs 4xx
forgot what its called
i went up to jao asking him for advice on how to land a ura
this guy just straight up told me u have a better chance getting into mit grad school then getting a cryptography ura
i grinded for loo to get these privileges but now u telling me i even have to grind harder to get them its acc fucked
idk
ima just cold email uoft profs
hopefully they take me
i didint know getting research was hard but for some reason all the olympiads in cs 145 are going after uras and research positions
nope im a first year
im not gonna take it tho im taking 487 in 3A
A new tool for teams & individuals that blends everyday work apps into one.
YOOO
jordan
i skip all my lectures
except for 137
cause of hamilton
yea
ian
is also
good
went to a couple of his lectures
Blake
is also
good
talked to a math upper year, u can easily override afm courses if ur in math faculty
LMAO
bro i acc
wanted cfm so bad
we're u just not interested in finance
did u have cfm 101
at the time
its acc such a good course
tuff bro they're doing stock leveraging data analysis with data sets created by the profs and arent open to the public its kinda sick ngl
yea and the class is like 50 ppl yk every1 around u and its mostly group work towards the end
afm moment
lmao afm

For anyone who got rejected from LinkedIn did they schedule the phone call or just randomly call?
Fuck
I doubt anyone knows cuz its based on if any hiring manager chooses u
Kinda like The Voice for software interns
Yeah they get a packet of the feedback of your interviews plus your resume
how much do ura at loo get paid?
That's bcuz they like hardcore cs stuff
20/hr ish
does anyone know what linkedin frontend asks for final
How was the event?
How was the trust and safety team
IS STRIPE WINTER ALMOST FULL?
was kinda interesting
i was surprised recruiters were answering a lot of the questions
some were like "what score do i need on the oa to make it to final"
honestly im not too interested in roblox
it sounded alright
they do mostly AI/deep learning stuff
for content moderation
said smth like 12 billion chat messages in roblox every day
over zoom
What did they say? Lol
yeah i think the work sounded interesting enough
but i have no interest in roblox
i dont see a future for it
i forgot tbh but they answered a bunch of recruiting/OA questions
one of the SWEs showcased a longer-term project he worked on
which was image comparison tool (like reverse image search)
said it helps helps tag potentially hazardous images and lets content moderators find similar images
speaking of roblox, anyone know i the LC tagged questions are useful for their final interview? there's only 6 in the past 6 months so idk what data structures to focus on
Yeah they are useful one is copy paste
Ah gotcha
What data structures do you reckon I should emphasize
Usually each company has their subset they like to ask
And how difficult would you say the interview was? I'm nervous af it's only my second one 😭
for coop schools yes
Just had a final and instead of leetcode questions they had me write a 3 page essay on the global consequences of imperialism???
which compnay is this lol
[Insert defense company here]
they would make you write an essay about the benefits of impearlism
Gotta hear back from datadog td right 
dude im gonna be so pissed if its not today
maybe email him?
it has been >1.5 weeks
timeline:
Wednesday, 9/28: Final
Monday, 10/3: Email asking for updates, recruiter says end of the week
Wednesday, 10/12, Email asking for updates, recruiter says soon, just needs final feedback from engineering director
yeah been a bit frustrating to say the least. Apparently the recruiter was out a few days
hubspot was pretty much the same got that fat rejection 2 weeks + 2 days after my final, on a friday too 😭
U should reject so we can get offers 
i can do that
cause im definitely going to scale over ddog
ill send one today i guess
Congrats, just curious what's your reasoning
pays more, better on resume
valid
Maybe PhD/masters?
Their pay is higher usually
56?
9500/40/4 = 60 is thats probably where they got it
^^^
Where is the roblox winter posting
yea i didnt even pass phone somehow
What are yall asking for the salary?
I'm in discussion and really don't want to blew it
Intern?
ye
What company
anyone got result after Wayfair coop VO?
what does VO stand for?
virtual onsite
Ah ty
They closed since they got a lot of applications
This might b obvious but does winter season= spring semester or fall semester
I’m guessing spring semester but I’m surprised ppl r still getting offers this late
winter is spring
Oh fr? Damn 😭
Is meta doing winter internships?
For Waterloo
Waterloo Privelage
They cancelled Winter
how do you know?
Hmm I heard they said something about winter hiring being summer instead
Meta in the mud fr
Kick em outta faang
Did anyone give tesla winter internship interview
If yes what were you asked
Is it lc based or resume based?
disagree, they mean amazon
Gf goes to loo
They not hiring for winter anymore, but yes for summer/fall as of now
that doesnt even make any sense
waterloo doesnt have job portal open for summer/fall
they do lol
I got a couple friends who passed meta this term but got them deferred to summer/fall
240
how long did it take u for recruiter to reach out again after OA?
i think its team dependent but idk
hey guys I currently have linkedin summer and a NG offer from a startup (Nextdoor), which one I should choose?
My grad date is may 2023, if I do the internship I'll have to get a master's/stay one more semester as undergrad
Can you delay next door start date?
I don't see why they would not be flexible with this
You mean delay it to the start of 2024?
yeah they will accept that, it's just that LinkedIn requires me to return to school after the summer 2023 internship
Screw them
There is no going to be any repercussions
I'm going to do the same with G
Tell to LinkedIn you plan to continue with a masters
it depends if you want to get a ng offer from linkedin imo
LinkedIn should be lenient about this
It matters if you do not graduate but you will
I would sign LinkedIn and nextdoor
If you get a return offer with LinkedIn to start in Sept 2023, renege nextdoor
they would be lenient and give a sept 2023 start date after telling them you plan on doing a masters?
Before the internship, you tell you plan to do a masters and in the middle of the internship, your plans changed
I know Google is fine with this since you graduated. I assume it's the same with LinkedIn
Why would LinkedIn prefer waiting 1year to hire you
ok makes sense
Yeah just act like you’re going back then say plans changed
Same happened with me. Linkedin didn’t even give me Winter because I’m graduating in May 2023
When did you interview
how did ur interviews go?
i feel like my behavioral went rly well
for technical i solved both but one was suboptimal space and he asked follow ups to improve it
F
yeah my two technical interviewers werent that interested
im worried about the technical part
suboptimal space isnt big issue but was an lc easy easy
where u shouldnt need extra space
interviewer sounded kinda dissapointed lol
i dont have java or frontend or fullstack experience on my resume
so id be surprised if i get team match
what role
oh
its hard to tell, dont know many who have filled that role tho for summer
when did u do final
so you'll know in two weeks then
happy waiting
I want an internship
I am good in HTML/CSS, JS, and Python
Any good offers?
I need it to graduate
how good ru in python
lru
?
nba
no
Yo @summer wolf you heard back from LinkedIn yet?
nope
You turned off da dm 🥲
i have tesla interview in a week :< anyone did tesla interview for spring?
how long after OA did u get contacted?
I know till OOP
some ppl didn’t get OA
u can get straight phone
for ppl who got the OA, it’s take about like 3 to 5 days
@chilly marlin also do u usually email only recruiters or do u also emaill people above them
i just email recruiters
Did emailing tesla recruiters work
straigjt phone for me
recruiter rea ch ed oht
she said smth along th elines of
'hiring manager at __ org expressed interest in u...'
team processes varies from team to team
so it gonna be completely different unless u going to the same team
for me it was OA => technical => behavioral
ah I got the exact same but they wanted to go for a phone screen
maybe i'll get OA later
oh nice did you end up getting it?
yep I interned like 2 summers ago
so it might’ve change btw
I worked on vehicle fulliment exp team
yeah mine is for data engineer so its prob different
i thought it was swe
i open the OA and its three SQL questions 😭
goat. ty for the info tho
bruh i would simply drop the tables in all 3qs and just close the OA
Anyone have a FAANG tier off season internship list?
Want to be lazy if someone did it already
check pinned?
Oh yeah but wondering if there’s others that are not out yet, and some are closed already
Not worth creating, better to check LinkedIn and sort by new since off-season internships close fast
i got a 300 on codesignal anygood?
depends
Yeah 300 is perfect score
hrt safety company with a 300 codesignal score tbh
aim for 420
bet onit
You can retake it?
Poll: Datadog actually gets back to people today
Did ddog say to expect something today?
Hoping to have something soon.
Oct 13
Final was sep 28 lmao
AS recruiter?
Yupp
couldn't hurt. They got a conference the 18th/19th so idk the odds of them replying soon but worth a shot
Oh yeah that makes sense. I guess we can expect something by the end of the week then hopefully 🙏
I think AS did say they're going to interview all the winter candidates first then make decisions based off of headcount. I asked cause I was wondering if I should push up my interview earlier to make sure I can be considered for winter but he told me to take my time. @golden hull
people have gotten offers for winter already tho
Oh
just withdrew from winter consideration and AS got back to me instantly lol
yeah lol but honestly he should've gotten back already
almost a month now
I mean thats the thing whenever I email AS he gets back to me in a reasonable amount of time
wouldn't blame AS tbh seems more like an upper management issue. Think they've just been overloaded w the whole conference happening
Can I defer my next summer LinkedIn internship to the next next summer? Anyone had similar experience ?
You mean winter?
No summer I just cannot attend it and cannot have internship during the school year because of visa issues
Oh dang that will be tough, doubt it but reach out to your recruiter and see
Yep this
Just noticed I posted it on the winter channel
I knew someone that was stuck in teams matching last year and they didn’t let eem switch to fall / next summer
I checked with my recruiter she said it's not possible
Yep that’s why I asked if it’s winter to summer lmao
Btw what do u think is better Two Sigma 10 weeks or LinkedIn 16 weeks
Yep two sigma
How long did it take to hear back from LinkedIn after final
2 days
Why 100%
Given that I am international and I heard LinkedIn sponsorship is better for full time
Swe
They meet on Wednesday and I had my interview on Tuesday that's why ig
has anyone else just been getting absolutely fucked by timelines this cycle?
Hubspot: Final 9/21 --> Rejection 10/7
Datadog: Final 9/28 --> Still no response
Amazon: Invitation to schedule interview 9/21 --> Interview confirmation 10/14 (friday at 4:48 pm lol) --> interview this morning 9 am
Like its so absurd how long everything is taking
Check dm
Always go with the team with better sponsor tbh
As long as the got similar pay
Get that green card
They say LinkedIn applies for greencard directly after 6 months of work including internships but Two Sigma applied for green card only if u get H1B lottery which is a gamble
Do you know how much is it? My recruiter was saying about 80% lol
That is what my recruiter said
Did anyone intern at LinkedIn this year?
i dont know the exact number. Recruiters say between 80-90% but everyone i knew got return last year
and all the summer interns who filled out the form
Wow
Datadog where 
I got a fucking djikstra problem for my palantir karat??
what does it mean when Palantir tells Karat to cancel a redo interview?
U passed
U only need 2/3
source? from what I know most of them got return offers?
80%+
It’s not a 100% but it’s high, ~70-80 (source: know someone that interned there last winter)
they dont take new grads so id expect it to be high
how strict are they about the we must be ur last internship
their yield rate is pretty insane though
another week and still no winter offers 
What months does "winter" encompass?
Is there a stripe intern discord
Anyone work at faire?
usually something between january and april
I have linkedin summer and Nextdoor NG fulltime offer, what do you guys think I should choose
im international so I can only choose one
linkedin because stability, good name, and free food
This
Lol how many of y’all reneged Hubspot
What happened ☕️
I got rejected
then recruiter emailed back asking for a call
idk what it's for
I got rejected a while ago too lol
feedback call hubspot does it for everyone. really nice actually
weird that it was a while ago tho
gad damnit
even after the rejection email?

I got all excited for nothing, nvm me y'all 
the feedback call scheduling was sent along with the rejection email for me
okay thnx y'all for keeping me grounded
Ik someone who just got interview after being rejected by hubspot earlier
actually yeah same. low key weird you got a second email
did u take the call? i thought i did well solved everything
yeah it was sys design for me. which sucks cuz i killed the leetcode part too
is anyone doing neuralink rn
i got coding challenge but it looks like a lot of work
got tesla interview this week
i hope theres only 1/2 interviews
i need to have decision soon otherwise I won't have time to apply for OPT
probably very slim chance but anyone ever interview for Data Engineer at tesla?
which team?
I had a friend who did data eng
dude
Did u have to do an OA/take home
Sm software recruiter reached out but she wanted me to do sm take home thingy
yeah there was a pretty easy 1hr OA
Anyone know how many interviews flex port have?
Did u do final
i did not
Oh
For Stripe internships for winter, I had some friends get their manager chat booked as a part of their virtual onsites, so their manager chat was after the two technical interviews, but I personally didn't hear about the manager chat until after I finished my onsites, anyone know what the difference is?
sameeeee, also on cpt
got tesla final this thursday (my birthday)
gotta bring up that LMAO
what team is that?
Vehicle Software
Is it oa then two interviews?
for me yea
team dependent i think
man
idk how hard tesla technical interview is gonna be
im legit so scared
Damn, that’s a lot of interviews
these winter internships r dry af
does stripe winter start jan 2023 or 2024?
2023
Anyone know how strict databricks is on the policy of u must go to a co-op required school
My recruiter wouldn't budge
is it safe to assume amazon isnt doing winter internships this year (just coop)
and im pretty sure coop is filled now as well
😭 in the same position rn
is 2023 winter the same as 2023 spring?
which stage r u at?
i just got asked for availability for 1st interview
me too so they didn't tell me anything at all and randomly told me that "oh this is for a data engineer position btw"
and asked for avail for a 1.5 hr phone screen
no OA yet or anything
we prob got different teams
i found out it was for data engineering when the entire OA was sql lmaoo
yeah but WHY IS IT SO LONG 😭
LOL
idek how long my interview will be
tesla is so shit at communicating the actual role
exactly
whole process is cryptic
after 1st interview ima ask my recruiter if she can lay out entire process
wait ask ur recruiter
i asked about the whole process but my recruiter just flat out ignored the q on my email -_-
gg wtf
literal bruh moment
ill found out after i get scheduled i guess
i just hope they're fast
same here
my recruiter was kind of ignoring my question about the process too
LMAO
for tesl
a
Just interview after interview until they feel ready lol
paid professional gatekeepers
LMAO
😭😭😭😭
i got an invite but i rejected it cause i alr have an off
Is it true that Roblox winter only hiring Waterloo 😭
I just had my interview and was gonna ask them to convert me if I got an offer
To winter*
we tried to convert already to winter it is not possible
when you ban yourself
Wow
That fucking sucks
I had the interview the day after 2 midterms and by some miracle managed to do well and it's all for nothing
I'd reneg amazon for it if economy wasn't so shit lol
Amazon has higher intern to FT conversion rate so it's the logical choice even if comp is less
waterloo privelage man
It'd be so irresponsible for me to pick rblx even though I really want to 😭
Fr I gotta remember this in the future if any kids ask me what school to go to
This is straight up OP
naw thats not true
i feel like roblox is gonna layoff soon
I was down to do 16 weeks if we started right after fall quarter ended for my school
I wish more schools had coop programs
I'd finish before spring, barely lol
Yeah
My school feeling kinda poopy now
honestly the coop platform didn't do much for me until the later terms
oof
how is uber btw, asking for a friend
yes
recruiter ghosted me for 4 weeks
LMAO
heather???
Uber never got back to me ever 😦
thats cap
what team were you on
datadog recruiter > uber recruiter
damn was that your top pick
i thought everyone wanted marketplace
Datadog is good
They rejected me really fast and I respect that
Intel waited 2 months to reject me
yikes
well now im deciding if i wanna go to Uber or Amazon, but Amazon seems kinda sus
wym
its a tricky situation, cause I dont htink uber is very job secure while amazon is. But a lot of people included me hated amazon
but there are some good teams
Oh absolutely
That's why I went with amazon over roblox
I heard about the situation where rblx had 90% manager approval rate for interns
But they only retained half of them
i also chose a startup over amazon
like for return
worst case I go back to datadog
Oh good luck man
The only two things I would've had were rblx and amazon so
Im interning at linkedin too, but im worried they hired all their interns last year
im worried they wont have any space for 2024 grades 💀
the strat really is to work for a b2b company
I got an OA for confluent so we'll see if I can turn that into something
I think for winter or fall idr
Did you apply via referral?
No
I just applied on their website like 5 days ago maybe?
5 days before I got the OA
I did 5 positions and got 3 emails for OA so I passed resume screen for 3/5 lol
It's a single 70 minute hackerrank I assume works for all 3 positions
great thanks
is quality engineering different?
yes
Tbh if confluent turns into nothing I'm just gonna call it quits unfortunately
No more applying until may then I'll just do newgrad apps
they resume screen before oa ?
seems auto after a certain amount of time, not sure
How would yall respond to a recruiter saying winter is full but offering a summer position? I can't take summer but I would really still want winter. Should I just ask to be put on a waitlist or something?
you could try but think you might be SOL 😦
id say ask for waitlist but def dont count on it
I just assumed they did bc I got emails at different times
And it was like 5-6 days after applying
And I only got OA for 4/5 positions
So I was thinking I didn't pass one screen
yea it's for meraki, unlucky scenes out here 
what about for non-meraki, cisco?
damn Cisco never even got back to me for half my apps 😭
they have separate interview processes afaik, I'll still ask about that tho ig
anyone interview for tesla energy engineering team before?
Is this for DE or SWE?
SWE I’m pretty sure
interviewed with linux infra yesterday
I have energy team interview coming up but its for DE
how long it took to hear back from tesla after applying? they take forever
took 1+ months
was one of the first apps i sent out
dang, almost a month and a half for me, hopefully I get it soon
so just OA->phone->final?
anyone know if PathAI is full yet?
no clue im waiting to be scheduled for the 1st interview
i think its more like
OA -> phone -> ♾️ interviews -> ghost
lmaoo good luck, man this szn gotta be one of the worst
my palantir karat redo got cancelled on monday, havent heard anything from recruiters since 😦
usually means you passed and not have to retake
For anyone doing summer apps too, is it this hard rn
200 apps, 6 final rounds
started applying sept 1st
summer has been far easier for me compared to winter, but i am a junior
kinda gave up on getting actual swe internships w companies for winter
main interviews ive been getting r like qa intern positions or like seasonal lab interns
but im also a sophomore
Which companies offer seasonal lab intern
i applied through handshake
some labs at ur university might take engineer interns
anyone know what snowflake process is
Rejected from datadog after 2 weeks man 
is there no winter microsoft internship?
there is, only if you're in a co-op school
is anyone interviewing for cell engineering tesla
has amazon reached out with decisions yet?
I have no idea where Amazon is with its student programs
U have an offer tho so it paid off 🐐
Story of my life 
u have an offer?
Do u have another offer
Unfortunately not, hoping amazon robotics pulls through 🙏
Me neither winter is rough 
so amazon isn't done hiring?
Amazon Robotics and Amazon have 2 separate hiring processes AFAIK so I can't speak on that
what stings is when i get rejected for a job and then a couple weeks later that same job is up again cuz they clearly didn't fill it
but i'm apparently not worthy either
Honestly idk if its worse to be rejected bc full or bc youre not good enough
Cuz at least you can control one of the factors you know
use the rejection to push yourself to improve
rejected bc full is just unfortunate
but def stings a lot either way
I'm so conditioned to being rejected at this point i'm desensitized lol
Also very fair
guess I'm too late to this party?
idk u might have a chance, recrutiers just started contacting me like 2 weeks ago for final round
i guess it doesn't hurt to apply
but i had heard they only go around to electric vehicle clubs in colleges to hire
yeah one
im waiting to hear back from 2 places tho 🙏
why is the process so slow though
its been 2 weeks since OA and im still waiting to be scheduled for 1st interview
really?
its super fast for me
the recruiter reached out and scheduled interview in a day
i guess my team is different
sheeesh
yeah seems to be team dependent
everything in tesla is soooo team dependent which does make me worried lol
my recruiter replies at lightning speed but the info isn't very helpful
YEAH
EXACTLY
ur describing my recruiter too lol
she replies so fast but she refuses to disclose info sometime
ok its team dependent so there mihgt be a chnce for me to survive if they make it easy
🙏
anyone know about interviewing with charles river development?
any1 know what day linkedin gives decisions?
my initial phone was almost 2 months ago now
been such a long process im worried they filled up lol
filled sorry
What does tesla pay and how is the internship overall?
does snowflake have good resume value
team dependent
for ppl who know yes
but most ppl should know
not yet for me at least
I have chilled with my cold emailing tho
no
also i don't think tesla pays anything close to faang level companies so set expectations lower for these musk-related companies
heard can be like $25-30ish on the lower side lol
this
Does telsa provide housing
surprisingly enough, I'd take that lol
tesla has so many positions though
why don't them have an option to be considered for a general position
also, SAVE MY GODDAMN CREDENTIALS LOL
winter filled up a while ago
maybe you can try to get moved to summer but you'd have to do it quick bc i've heard that's close to filling up
yeah im pretty sure im in the summer loop
finished my final last thursday
hope to hear back soon /;
i know they're not accepting new interviews cuz they have enough ppl in the pipeline
so it sounds like summer is almost full as well
anyone plan to do wayfair co-op for winter?
@buoyant dagger @south lark AYOOO
just finished first tesla interview
it went ok, they said they liked my personality
i move onto the last round
they straight up said that lmaoo
congrats! sounds like a p chill team
LOL yeah he seemed chill af
lol i applied to every one like 6 months ago and never got any response
and my school is supposed to be a target school : (
Yeah I applied to like 5 positions and realized immediately that I was wasting my time
I applied to 20 last year, did a recruiter call and got ghosted
No response to my follow up emails
when did you apply and did you hear back? Still waiting on a response from them
I applied around 9/1 and received an offer
They response pretty fast
how long was ur interview?
i just got scheduled for 30min next week
seems like it will be behavioral only since its so short
HAHAH goated
spring 2023 struggle bus
