tryna up my barista TC

#

will use

green bronze
#

They deadass bring a barista to teach you how to use it

#

My only advice is get your work done and ask a lot of questions, and don’t let yourself get blocked for long periods of time

#

Build a relationship with your team and make sure you put effort into learning

#

Anyone completed goldman sachs OA and portal shows interview completed without even completing interview? Is it a reject?

Question about apple new grad.

Does apple new grad expect experience with swift and iOS/Mac dev?

lofty tangle
teal jackal
#

Does the early careers one actually care? I know on the listing it says it does but I'm not sure if I'll be auto filtered out by it

rain patio
#

Mine got rejected for 2 locations, got OA for one.

#

I think it will take time to get updated in portal

somber hamlet
rain patio
#

Oh

lilac siren
#

Clarification from my friend working at Apple.
In fact, they don't have a dedicated campus recruiting position, and each team recruits separately. As long as there is no working experience requirement, we can apply if we have a familiar tech stack.

somber hamlet
#

How many days to update portal?

rain patio
#

There might be some issues with portal..

somber hamlet

Let me know if you have any update

#

honestly

#

amazon pays really well relative to the hiring bar for a reason
but its still a great company to start your career at

#

but with jobs being hard to find, yeah id want a bit more stability and confidence that i can stay for at least a year

#

honestly job apps feels like college apps if they could be even worse

slim mortar
#

the hiring market is shit

#

get whatever u can

surreal shuttle

Damn everyone applied to c1 because c1 replies fast and interviews with a not as stringent hiring bar

#

Shii

#

I hope they'll be open long enough for me

sonic coral

Wait 133k base?

That’s higher than faang base in Boston lol

Is Netflix oa auto?

marble bronze
#

Think so

azure zephyr
#

netflix oa being a codesignal is so tragic lmao

split plaza
#

def not auto lol

floral plank
#

I wonder what is a good to move on?

#

Like would 819 be enough

gilded dust
#

Got citadel first round phone!!!

#

HELL YA LETS GO!!!

obsidian marsh
#

i haven’t got netflix OA and i applied the 23rd so i don’t think it’s automatic

split plaza
#

^

calm shale
#

is it GCA

split plaza
#

if it was auto there would be way more activity in process channel

azure zephyr
#

linkedin shows that like 4k+ ppl have applied to the netflix new grad position on there

static moth
#

does netflix only want like 849 lmfao, does anyone know the avg range?

calm shale
#

even if i get OA, theres no way i pass GCA bar lmao

floral plank
#

Hopefully not

azure zephyr
#

this makes me think that maybe your score that doesn't carry an insane amount of weight

waxen bolt
#

No clue. It seems like a bunch of people got it at once and I got it 8 days after applying. So maybe it came after a resume screen?

calm shale
#

do a practice test, it's somewhat accurate to the real thing, but usually a bit eaiser

floral plank
#

I am probably gonna submit my current score an see what happens

waxen bolt
split plaza
#

1,2 are basically free, 3 is implementation-heavy, often some kind of matrix problem but efficiency doesn't matter, 4 is LC med basically

lilac siren
waxen bolt
#

I have 845 so hopefully they take that lmao

azure zephyr
#

i still haven't done a proctored GCA so its prob time i finally do it anyways

#

just gonna do some practice ones for the next few days

gilded dust
#

Y’all are cracked

#

I have an 825

azure zephyr
#

netflix new grad comp last year was 200k base so if i get netflix its a wrap lmao

gilded dust
#

💀💀

waxen bolt
calm shale
#

question 1,2 are just easies, usually done in <5 mins
q 4 is LC med, usually takes a lot of code
q 3 is almost always a matrix med/hard

ya just do 1,2,4,3

static moth
#

aight sharing my 844, hope this is enough

#

prayge

bronze nymph
#

was netflix also gca last year?

waxen bolt
#

Anyone know how long CodeSignal takes to validate scores? I took it almost 24 hours ago

obsidian marsh
#

i’ve only done one other codesignal, are you required to share the score you have? my c1 score was bad because i wasn’t super invested in it

old smelt
calm shale
#

849 probably

bronze nymph
waxen bolt
#

850 is technically the best possible but I don't think you can achieve it. Since time is a factor you'd need to finish in a hot second to get 850

#

You got it man

#

I'd aim for higher than 800 tbh it's netflix

floral plank
#

You only have 7 days to do it though

static moth
#

the thing is, this is netflix

#

so god knows what they want

rain patio
#

Is there a comprehensive list of which companies are hiring? Not sure what not to waste time on after seeing so many freeze news

azure zephyr
#

im gonna try for 800+ as well

#

just gonna do a practice test every day

waxen bolt
#

If it helps: i did 5 leetcode questions every day for 3 weeks and went from 740 - 845

azure zephyr
#

wow how did you not burn out doing 5 questions a day? i do like 2 questions a day lol

floral plank
#

For 2022 grads they seem to move on with 800+

waxen bolt
#

I just clicked shuffle on leetcode so everything and anything. I skipped most easies or questions with really bad like to dislike ratios

split plaza
#

did yall get confirmation emails after submitting the netflix airtable

azure zephyr
#

ahhh okay gotcha. how do you know?

waxen bolt
azure zephyr
#

ohh gotcha

waxen bolt
#

Yeah part of it is luck. I haven't seen a matrix or hard dp yet and I've done 3 codesignals

azure zephyr
#

whenever im applying to new grad positions i always like to do a quick linkedin search of the new grads from the previous year 🌚

waxen bolt
#

133 total. I only really started studying in the past 3 months

azure zephyr
#

lol i do always apply im just curious of what kind of people are joining the company

#

is netflix based more in the bay area or LA? or is it split

azure zephyr
#

yeah thats what i thought

latent sun
#

LA is more film production

azure zephyr
#

would prob need a car if youre out there right?

latent sun
#

swes

#

yeah

azure zephyr
#

damn im really trying to get rid of my car hahaha

old smelt
#

They do remote as well I think

waxen bolt
#

I don't know how to drive bahaha. If I move to SF I'm fucked

old smelt
#

But haven't heard great things about WLB and culture

azure zephyr
#

im pretty sure if you live in SF its fine

rain patio
#

you don't need to drive in SF

#

but also don't live in SF lol

#

NYC or bust baby

waxen bolt
#

Really? What if I want to live downtown and the office is like in some random burb

azure zephyr
#

but if its more outside SF either the company has a shuttle or you have to drive

waxen bolt
azure zephyr
#

i assume places like netflix prob has a shuttle that goes all around silicon valley

rain patio
#

I'd take a paycut to be in NYC

#

Might just sign datadog return offer and call it a day

#

idk which company who can offer me nyc new grad can top that one

azure zephyr
#

whats ur offer

rain patio
#

already got lucky enough getting that shit lmfao

#

havent heard details yet

#

just a verbal offer for all the interns so far

whole torrent
#

How long does it take for amazon to get back to you? And what is the trick to know your results faster based on your portal?

waxen bolt
#

I am applying to datadog place looks sick

rain patio
#

don't do that to yourself when you're so young

silk cape
#

Do I have to use my existing code signal score for Netflix or is it a different one?

old smelt
#

Yea I would avoid Cali at all costs lol fuck that place

rain patio
waxen bolt
rain patio
#

instagram nyc was my dream but now that they're not even hiring their own interns i guess it's a wrap

#

maybe atlassian and linkedin and a couple more

#

and notion i guess

#

but i don't have referrals for any of these and without referrals my hit rate is fucking awful lmfao

gilded dust
#

Nyc > Silicon Valley

azure zephyr
rain patio
#

san jose is not a city

#

live in SF

azure zephyr
#

eh i like san jose ive been a few times

gilded dust
#

SF is also dreadful

old smelt
#

SF is terrible

rain patio
#

yea come to NYC

#

only real "city" in the US

gilded dust
#

I went to sf for three months and I swear I got depression

azure zephyr
#

sf is my fav city ive been to but the prices are so high

rain patio
#

SF: good from far, but far from good

azure zephyr
#

listen...the bay area has great weed

#

tbh

gilded dust
#

Weather is horrible in sf it’s always gloomy and chilly. Same weather all year round

rain patio
#

live in SF if you're gonna be in the bay

azure zephyr
#

ik

rain patio
#

sure you'll pay 3.5k for a 1BD but at least you won't be clinically depessed in your suburbia couch

azure zephyr
#

its just so expensive

gilded dust
#

Atleast nyc is seasonal lol

rain patio
#

NYC is not a techbro hub

#

all your friends won't be meta E3's

gilded dust
#

But I’m from socal which has beautiful weather

rain patio
#

all your friends won't be talking to you about Blind posts

gilded dust
#

So NorCal depressed me lmao

rain patio
#

the tech bubble in SF/south bay is fucking depressing

#

hedonistic treadmill industrial complex

#

boroo what's your TC brooo

azure zephyr
#

too bad socal doesn't have more tech

gilded dust
#

Yeah but it’s sunny and not gloomy lol

azure zephyr
#

SoCal has the best weather in the county tbh

rain patio
#

but you gotta drive lmfao

#

and it's just a collection of suburbs

#

fuck socal lol

azure zephyr
#

its not super hot its moreso like in the 70s but its so spread out you HAVE to drive

gilded dust
#

I’m in Orange County which has the best weather out of socal

azure zephyr
#

im going to LA this weekend for labor day actually

rain patio
#

if you gotta drive to get groceries you don't live in a city you live in Gummo land

azure zephyr
#

yeah...traffic is awful there

gilded dust
rain patio
#

I'm in mountain view right now and it's fucking awful

#

i miss nyc every second of my life

#

naw i grew up in Seoul but yes spent half my life in nyc

#

yea I lucked out with that one tbh

#

intern interviews were so chill

#

new grad interviews seem more hardass

#

yea I really liked it a lot

#

great company and culture

static moth
#

wtf how many datadog mfs are here rn

rain patio
#

pay is pretty fuckin good too

#

assuming they don't lowball us lol

static moth
old smelt
#

They will definitely scale down the TC

rain patio
#

i heard return interns get a pretty high offer

#

and it's hard to negotiate too far from there

#

so yea i might just sign it instantly

#

I don't know if I can do more LC and do this shit all over again

#

it's so soul draining getting fucked everyday

azure zephyr
#

tbh yeah. you love nyc, datadog is a great company its a win

old smelt
#

Always sign and renege if something better comes

static moth
#

i think ddog is relatively recession safe

floral plank
#

Did you guys get any confirmation for sending duolingo on untapped?

rain patio
#

and the stock is low right now for DDOG

#

now is a good time to sign

gilded dust
#

@static moth really? The P/E ratio of the stock is stil really high which concerns me 💀

rain patio
#

according to seniors / swe2s

gray niche
#

if netflix rejects my 839 im going to throw up

#

I know this is an unpopular opinion but I actually like a hybrid work model

#

especially as an entry level engineer

wind drum
static moth
#

vs other types of companies who's customers are like the general population

old smelt
rain patio
#

all the DDOG interns who got a return offer what else are you looking at ?

rain patio
#

so hopefully it doesnt shoot up by then!

gilded dust
#

Citadel, google

#

Got reject by Jane street 🥹

rain patio
#

hmmmmm i see

teal jackal
#

Ddog is really good

rain patio
#

I'm thinking of applying to Notion, Atlassian, Square, and a couple more, but none of them I can get a referral for, but I guess might as well just shoot my shot

static moth
rain patio
#

ooooooof

static moth
#

wait fr?

#

o shit

rain patio
#

yea their remote policy is pretty sick

#

all my teammates come in for free lunch basically

#

but with the freezes it's just confusing b/c I'm not even sure which companies are open atm

#

but I guess just apply everywhere and see where it goes

#

like my buddy at Stripe told me they're also not gonna be pumping in new grads

gilded dust
#

Figma is also good

rain patio
#

oooo i can get a referral for figma from a classmate maybe i'll try that one too

#

but if they don't have NYC office / allow remote from NYC it's a bust

gilded dust
#

Yeah, culture is soo important

#

Being in a bad company culture is so draining and cause burnout

#

So only looking to go to companies w good culture (minus citadel lol)

rain patio
#

yea hearing some of my friends talk about their experience at amazon is fucking dreadful

azure zephyr
rain patio
old smelt
#

How?

rain patio
#

i want to make friends in the office and actually have some separation of life/work

old smelt
#

Remote is godlike

rain patio
#

and it's fun to socialize with your coworkers not on slack

static moth
gilded dust
#

@static moth exactly

rain patio
#

esp in NYC offices a lot of the coworkers you meet are actually cool people

old smelt
#

Literally don't have to commute at all and you dictate your own working hours

rain patio
#

not like mountain view drones who wake up at 6 AM to go "hike"

gray niche
azure zephyr
#

i feel like hybrid would be better bc then theres set days where your entire team will be there

rain patio
#

mate if you want, I can ask my recruiter to put you in the pipeline

#

I did that for 2 of my buddies

#

and they are already in the pipeline

#

yea go ahead

azure zephyr
#

goated

rain patio
#

I'll send it after they let me know my return offer details, so you gotta wait a week or two though

#

cus right now it's a bit of an awkward timing

fringe egret
#

how many rounds is new grad ddog?

wind drum
fringe egret
#

wow wtf

azure zephyr
#

wow

rain patio
#

wtf? 6??

#

intern round is literally 1

#

wtf lmfao

sudden depot
#

damn ppl are hearing back from netflix 👀

wind drum
#

ikr lmao

rain patio
#

as always easiest way to a full time offer is just interning there huh

#

jesus 6 rounds for a 22 year old new grad

#

brutal

gilded dust
#

Wtf

#

I love google too

#

Both are amazing in terms of culture, learning and people

rain patio
#

yea google nyc is fucking insane

wind drum
# wind drum 6 lol

recruiter phone -> OA -> Tech Screen (harder version of intern final) -> 3 round final (coding, Design, behaviorial)

rain patio
#

but with big techs not HQ'd in NYC it's a bit tough bc you gotta get lucky twice

#

gotta 1. get the job 2. get the nyc office

#

that's a lot of luck, I can barely get past step 1 LMFAOO

gilded dust
#

I’m fine with google mtv

hexed moth
#

cant u just transfer offices

rain patio
#

it's so dreadful here

gilded dust
#

I feel like googlers are not tech bro like

rain patio
#

but MTV is stroller town

#

it's not made for 20-something year olds to exist

#

it's for 40 year old google lifers to have kids and yell at them for not getting into stanford

hexed moth
#

i wouldnt want my kids going to an ivy

gilded dust
#

Meta seems brutal with their stack ranking

#

But their new grad 2023 is open, they are recruiting at my school lmao

rain patio
#

oh word?

#

might as well try, even though i'll prob get fucked with some LC hard by a IIT guy

gilded dust
#

Yeah there were a ‘23 full time new grad resume drop for meta yesterday at my school

#

I was surprised because I thought they were on a freeze lmao

gilded dust
#

A top cs school

vast rock
#

yall question: if I got a proctored codesignal score from company A. and company B wants it too, if I choose to take it again, can i see the result of second score first then choose to send either old or new score, or do I HAVE to send the new score if I decide to retake

waxen bolt
#

HRT needs like 847 lmao

rain patio

these OAs are fucking ridiculous man

#

vast rock

weak latch

OAs be so much harder than interviews

cuz HRT just sends OA to everyone, most ppl gets resume rejected not b/c score. I know someone with 848 finished codesginal in like 20 minutes but got rejected right after. I don't think it's always an OA cut off

but some of the questions I've seen on these OAs are just like bruh moments

#

im like y'all....

dumb question but If I wanna email a previous recruiter do I reply to the previous email chain or send a new email?

rain patio

thats why kids in my school jsut do the OAs with like 3 other people

How long does it take to usually get an OA from amazon?

# gilded dust I’m so scared for citadel phone

naw bro don't fret, you got a DDOG return offer, you can walk in with a YOLO mindset and fucking wing that shit, your worst case scenario in life is you make a lot of money in NYC and have fun

#

the psychological battle is half the game I swear

#

and once you have a good return offer it frees you

ok 819 is not enough for roblox? this shit so sad

armed with a good referral I think the bar in general goes lower, like I don't even expect a callback from a big tech unless I have a referral, it's just too much competition rawdogging an application thru an online portal

those you actually get a callback

but regular normie career fairs are a fucking joke

wicked pendant

conference databases are legit, ghc and tapia you dont even have to attend to drop your resume

teal jackal

Ghc and greylock are legit I heard

But I'm not the personality type who would ever be aware to apply for those, too late anyways

waxen bolt
teal jackal
#

Is it still codesignal gca?

waxen bolt
#

Companies don't usually find their best talent at career fairs

waxen bolt
rain patio
#

and also it's scary just delaying an offer in this economy

#

like headcount issue might just fuck you down the line

#

god knows what happens in a couple months in this climate

waxen bolt
#

Yeah I asked to extend my deadline and they said no. Im just gonna renege if I get something better

rain patio
#

but then again rescinding is also a terrible idea esp since im international and i can get in trouble with OPT / etc

waxen bolt
#

I'm American lol I guess it's my privilege to be able to do that

#

Definitely sucks if you're international

rain patio
#

these recruiters just move around so much

#

don't want to piss any of them off

#

and it's nice to be in a good relationship with them

#

much easier to refer friends / etc if you're in good standing with them

bleak raven
#

@rain patio do u have any pro tips about working at datadog

rain patio
#

like once a recruiter locks eyes on you and wants you to get hired so they get paid that's the best position to be in
