Did anyone else not get an AirTable for Netflix after applying? Should I be worried

when did you apply

weak latch

uhhhh excuse me

formal fable
# thick shell Did anyone else not get an AirTable for Netflix after applying? Should I be worr...

I'm worried that my application emails are all messed up. They had the linkedin button which inserted my personal email ID on the app form. I changed it to my school email ID. And yet, I received Airtable form on the personal email ID. If you do not click on linkedin button, they even let you upload your resume directly. Hopefully they don't reject me just cause their stupid form did not infer my school ID.

I think they manually check every application, cause if it were automated, they would've sent the form on my school ID, but someone went to my linkedin and chose to pick my personal ID

I thought Netflix was basically automated OA

formal fable
distant bobcat
weak latch
#

Airtable -> OA is manual most likely

formal fable
#

Funny thing is, if I try again to apply via my school ID without linkedin, they say I already applied, so their system knows that my school ID is being used, and yet, airtable went to personal ID

formal fable
weak latch
#

so you applied via linkedin right? like on the linky job page you clicked on apply

#

which should've taken you to the netflix career site

#

where you fill in a quick form, attach ur resume, and submit

formal fable
weak latch
#

well if you used linkedin its gonna use the email attached to your linkedin

#

which i assume is your personal email

formal fable
#

Yeah, but applying via LinkedIn usually means they're just importing my info. Which I can then overwrite. I do this on other applications as well, and they all arrive on my school ID. Only Netflix sent their form to my personal ID, so it doesn't make sense for a standard automated process to receive one ID and yet opt for another, unless someone went to my linkedIN and used my personal ID again

weak latch
#

No one went to ur linkedin and sent the airtable within 1 hour of submitting

#

that's impossible

#

think about that for a sec and the amount of applications netflix gets

formal fable
#

Yeah, I know that's impractical as hell. But there's a chance that someone did receive my application and immediately considered it, despite 1000s of apps.

weak latch
#

netflix just imported the email attached to ur linkedin i don't think it's that deep or crazy

formal fable
weak latch
#

I guess so 🤷 But that's very obviously what happened

#

Airtable is a continuation of the application so there would be no reason for a recruiter to manually review anyone since the application isn't even done and being considered yet

There's far more instances of Bloomberg NGs making it to Senior SWE with as low as 3 YOE, than Datadog. So unless there's a specific reason wrt the team, work, role, etc, for pure title and consequently brand value for job switch, I'd take Bloomberg.

Has anyone done Capital One TDP powerday interview?

How was it? I am scheduled for it.

jaunty snow
# trail siren How was it? I am scheduled for it.

I think it went well for me, I had mine last Thursday and have yet to hear back but overall felt good
Case interview was weird I’ll be honest, but mainly it’s a discussion on code snippets, advantages, disadvantages, trade offs, etc.
Technical was basically an OOD problem for me, not really a particular leetcode problem
Behavioral was just like any behavioral interview with follow up questions on prev exp’s

jaunty snow
# calm shale any language?

So depending on the case study they provide, they may or may not have multiple languages for code snippets - for mine I was able to use Python

#

Technical was bcs it was on codesignal

late kestrel
#

lol why did palantir message me on handshake after resume rejecting me. like my experience obviously wasn't good enough so go away

late kestrel
jaunty snow
#

Yup! Like given these requirements, how would you fulfill them with a class, methods, attributes, all that

#

I did hear that last year it was very linked list oriented, so I’d still brush up on hash maps, arrays, and linked lists

Is it unprofessional to call/text a recruiter, the person emailed me aug 16 with a questionnaire and potential interview dates, and I replied back with answers, but have not gotten a response since, sent a follow up email on aug 22, and her phone number was in her signature of the original email, and was thinking about calling/texting her on Friday this week? (This is for C1)

jaunty snow
#

maybe others could chime in on that, unsure tbh haha

last belfry

Lol nvm she just replied

#

😂😂😂😂😂😂

jaunty snow

oh wow that was fast lmao

#

honestly not sure if I should reach out to my recruiter, it's been about 4 business days and haven't heard anything after final

late kestrel
#

c1 was weird for scheduling my pd too lol

late kestrel
#

just what id do. you can always do something tomorrow as thatd be 5 business days

yeah that makes sense, i'll keep thinking on it and i might send an email tomorrow, thanks!

What’s the highest you could get on codesignal GCA without solving 3 perfectly

Could you still get at least 750-800

how hard is the two sigma OA

if y'all have done it

jaunty snow
weak latch
#

Yeah

jaunty snow

I got like a 720 and still advanced, I've heard as long as you reach 700 and up you should be good

solving 3 of the 4 problems perfectly is like 900 points I believe

more OAs than interviews bc some places screen after OA which is annoying
