yea the other one is alive 
would it be weird if i called you guys doggies
damn they smart
go ahead bro
we data doggies
Alright doggies

🐶🐶
what was class size for winter i never asked
Bits>>> your mascot
i think 40ish
Respect bits he owns you
u think u gonna take return offer or are u trying something else
Make sure you do work or else imma snitch on you to Oli
I can’t tell if this doggy stuff is extremely based or extremely cringe
Based for us
based bro
i asked my manager for the hardest project he had 💀

!avatar @green bronze
What team
Never heard of that tbh
yee it’s new
!avatar @rain patio
4 people
Good luck bro
And make sure to have fun with the snacks
They hide ice cream on 46, the good shit
my project is rewriting the design cuz they found out their current algo is trash
yo whatt
🤫
dude the sweet ice tea bottle drinks were crack
Ben and jerry top quality, check the 46 small fridge, you ain’t hear from me
wait is there iced coffee
They have a lot of stuff
i think cold brew by tap machine
and a bunch of bottled drinks
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
got it yea that’s helpful thx
@green bronze i thought ur pfp was an alpaca never seen it blown up
I just got (20 mins ago) rejected from Walmart for Summer 2021 internship 😂 Anyone else got this? lmao the app was submitted 2 years ago
Search early career on apple website
we live in a time where chick fil a has a higher budget for new grads than meta 💀💀💀
What is the Zucc doing !?
Anyone completed goldman sachs OA and portal shows interview completed without even completing interview? Is it a reject?
maybe oa = interview here
Congrats 💯
Initially it showed hackerrank completed and again changed to interview completed
😒
Question about apple new grad.
Does apple new grad expect experience with swift and iOS/Mac dev?
Seems like for some specific job ids, not all.
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
Mine got rejected for 2 locations, got OA for one.
I think it will take time to get updated in portal
Mine 2 in review, and got OA and complete in less than 1 day of submitting application but portal still says invited for OA instead of completed OA
Oh
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.
How many days to update portal?
There might be some issues with portal..
Not sure may be 2 days
Same happened with my friends
Let me know if you have any update
Their random 2 location got rejected
Oh yeah
is 839 good score in codesignal?
very good
Do they allow for delayed start for when we graduate?
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
That's actually fucked.
cap imo but maybe I just had good team
Anyone know what to expect in a first round JP Morgan interview?
When did you apply?
Uhhh I think like a few weeks ago
is this a hirevue?
i thught it was straight to superday
I think they do hackerrank now
Unless they have a hirevue after you pass hackerrank

Wtf does Amazon have against me 😦 where’s my OA
Why do you want Zon 
lol everyone wants zon this year idgi
Any one interviewed with IMC yesterday received any feedbacks?
Money
Any one interviewed with IMC yesterday (2:45pm - 5pm Central) received any feedbacks?
bruh
the recuiter during my NBCUnviserval phone screen told me accept vangaurd and renege later if I get the offer with NBC

this man is a menace
LMFAO
aint no way
It was so unexpected
is circle auto oa?
Don't you have like 5 offers already
LMFAO WHAT
💀
I think so
dawg
i forgot to submit my amazon oa lmfao
they emailed me about it
i didnt realize the survey was mandatory!!!!!!!
Yes! 
Yeah it's not a survey, it's to test your leadership principles
Hmm?
lmfao i have none
The survey post OA1?
@teal jackal
I hadn't received OA2 and I thought I did something horrendously wrong
Like after the OA1 it takes you to a survey page
It wasn't OA2 lol
has anyone got past the OA for General Motors?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Has anyone finished the IMC final round yesterday and received any feedback?
Someone in past shared like tips/cheat sheet for OA2 for Amazon, can’t find it anymore can someone share it again
Took it, never heard back
Jk got interview just now
did u really
i got a prep call for tomorrow
same but not going to that lmao
dunno im assuming final tho?
Anyone know how long it takes to get next bloomberg round after first phone?
internet died while I was doing an interview, thank god for my phone hot spot
nice excuse for cheating*
imma use that

Same
my life is under review
someone in my building's apartment caught on fire during my anduril interview
fortunately everything was okay
if you find it please share it. Thats the part I failed at
that was for summer 2022 interview
does everyone get rejected for weride or some shit
Idk
Akuna isn’t even sending OA wtf is wrong w my resume 😪
after i got my c1 offer recruiter sent me this http://desudesudesu.io/ 
Desu's Realm | A GLORIOUS TRIBUTE TO DESU'S HOLY CRUSADE AGAINST CAPITAL ONE
cringe
I heard they're super backlogged rn
I'm planning on taking their codesignal today
I just applied
location?
boston
148k is good for c1 standarda
nyc and sf filled
148k is great for boston right?
ig
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
must be TC
128k base
He said 148k first year then 133k after
5k yearly bonus
That's really good for Boston
the problem with this hiring season is that theres only a few companies that are actually hiring a good amount of ppl
sign on is 15k
Oh that’s still mad solid, faang is like around that much too
frrr
The thing with c1 is peanuts stock and bonus
for what company?
C1
ohhh captial one
+1
my hire was a unanimous decision and i didnt prep + no sleep the night before cuz i was on a flight + jet lag
Fuck
ez offer
oh wrd gl
ive only gotten trough arrays and some tree stuff
Was their interview hard
my brain was actually dead
wow didn't realize C1 was that free
@bleak raven i'm jealous about microsoft bro that's a great job
or ur just that good
not from interview but from flight
congratulations
and i was able to 100% everything
thxthx
nicee
nah your just cracked
seattle?
Damn bro
but recruiter said i could work from anywhere 💀
Is leetcode bar for capital one not that high
damn so are you going to stay at home?
didnt even get asked LC
DaMN
nah im moving to nyc
is c1 only hiring for January start date rn?
im grad in spring
Behavioral shit then?
0.O
also spring 2023
What the f
did u get a referral bc imma apply now ig if its that easy
no
recruiter reached out to me tho
i didnt even apply 💀
ooo i never get recuiters to reach out
idk how so manny ppl get that shit
no OA
i think cuz i was in process last year
and cancelled cuz microsoft offer
i only get scam recuirters from china rofl
this time i went thru
ohhh gotcha
but still accepting microsoft over them 
it was like , analyze the data , parse it, and return X Y Z
i basically wrote a python script for data analysis
it was fun
real application of coding
damn gz man
Sweet
Is Netflix oa auto?
Think so
netflix oa being a codesignal is so tragic lmao
def not auto lol
i haven’t got netflix OA and i applied the 23rd so i don’t think it’s automatic
^
is it GCA
if it was auto there would be way more activity in process channel
Haven’t got it either.
linkedin shows that like 4k+ ppl have applied to the netflix new grad position on there
does netflix only want like 849 lmfao, does anyone know the avg range?
even if i get OA, theres no way i pass GCA bar lmao
Hopefully not
this makes me think that maybe your score that doesn't carry an insane amount of weight
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?
do a practice test, it's somewhat accurate to the real thing, but usually a bit eaiser
I am probably gonna submit my current score an see what happens
849 is cracked lmao you have to finish the codesignal in like 9 minutes. I bet above an 840 and you have a good shot
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
No
I have 845 so hopefully they take that lmao
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
netflix new grad comp last year was 200k base so if i get netflix its a wrap lmao
💀💀
It's not bad. The strategy I did was to do the 1st and 2nd questions first as they are easy. Then do the 4th as it's a tricky problem but doesn't take a lot of code. Then do the 3rd question.
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
was netflix also gca last year?
Anyone know how long CodeSignal takes to validate scores? I took it almost 24 hours ago
It took 24 hours for me
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
They had a custom one for one of the roles and a GCA for the other
849 probably
ah yea, I remember smth similar
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
You only have 7 days to do it though
Is there a comprehensive list of which companies are hiring? Not sure what not to waste time on after seeing so many freeze news
If it helps: i did 5 leetcode questions every day for 3 weeks and went from 740 - 845
wow how did you not burn out doing 5 questions a day? i do like 2 questions a day lol
For 2022 grads they seem to move on with 800+
I just clicked shuffle on leetcode so everything and anything. I skipped most easies or questions with really bad like to dislike ratios
did yall get confirmation emails after submitting the netflix airtable
ahhh okay gotcha. how do you know?
I got embarrassed on a palantir internship interview last year so I'm scared lol. I have to do well on LC it's just stuck in my psyche
ohh gotcha
Yeah part of it is luck. I haven't seen a matrix or hard dp yet and I've done 3 codesignals
whenever im applying to new grad positions i always like to do a quick linkedin search of the new grads from the previous year 🌚
133 total. I only really started studying in the past 3 months
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
yeah thats what i thought
LA is more film production
would prob need a car if youre out there right?
damn im really trying to get rid of my car hahaha
They do remote as well I think
I don't know how to drive bahaha. If I move to SF I'm fucked
But haven't heard great things about WLB and culture
im pretty sure if you live in SF its fine
Really? What if I want to live downtown and the office is like in some random burb
but if its more outside SF either the company has a shuttle or you have to drive
I like in NYC trying to go back
i assume places like netflix prob has a shuttle that goes all around silicon valley
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
whats ur offer
already got lucky enough getting that shit lmfao
havent heard details yet
just a verbal offer for all the interns so far
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?
quant lmaoo
I am applying to datadog place looks sick
"silicon valley" -> terrible boring suburbs filled with most dreadful people
don't do that to yourself when you're so young
Do I have to use my existing code signal score for Netflix or is it a different one?
Yea I would avoid Cali at all costs lol fuck that place
naw bruh come on i'm not smart enough to even pass that shit
You can take it again or share a previous score
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
Nyc > Silicon Valley
yeah ive already decided that if i get a job in the bay im gonna live in the city, either san jose or sf
eh i like san jose ive been a few times
SF is also dreadful
SF is terrible
I went to sf for three months and I swear I got depression
sf is my fav city ive been to but the prices are so high
SF: good from far, but far from good
Weather is horrible in sf it’s always gloomy and chilly. Same weather all year round
live in SF if you're gonna be in the bay
ik
sure you'll pay 3.5k for a 1BD but at least you won't be clinically depessed in your suburbia couch
its just so expensive
Atleast nyc is seasonal lol
But I’m from socal which has beautiful weather
all your friends won't be talking to you about Blind posts
So NorCal depressed me lmao
the tech bubble in SF/south bay is fucking depressing
hedonistic treadmill industrial complex
boroo what's your TC brooo
too bad socal doesn't have more tech
Yeah but it’s sunny and not gloomy lol
SoCal has the best weather in the county tbh
its not super hot its moreso like in the 70s but its so spread out you HAVE to drive
I’m in Orange County which has the best weather out of socal
im going to LA this weekend for labor day actually
if you gotta drive to get groceries you don't live in a city you live in Gummo land
yeah...traffic is awful there
Bruh. We just get grocery delivery
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
wtf how many datadog mfs are here rn
we'll find out in 1.5 weeks
They will definitely scale down the TC
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
tbh yeah. you love nyc, datadog is a great company its a win
Always sign and renege if something better comes
i think ddog is relatively recession safe
Did you guys get any confirmation for sending duolingo on untapped?
@static moth really? The P/E ratio of the stock is stil really high which concerns me 💀
according to seniors / swe2s
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
haha yeah they straight up told me the tech screen is hard than the intern one for ddog
idk im going upon the fact that its a b2b saas company which other companies sorta need to survive
vs other types of companies who's customers are like the general population
I think your equity is valued at the price on the day you start
all the DDOG interns who got a return offer what else are you looking at ?
I will start on Feb 2023 since I graduate in Dec 2022
so hopefully it doesnt shoot up by then!
hmmmmm i see
Ddog is really good
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
notion doesnt do new grad i think
ooooooof
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
Figma is also good
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
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)
yea hearing some of my friends talk about their experience at amazon is fucking dreadful
hybrid > 100% in office > fully remote
so true, fully remote is overrated as fuck
How?
i want to make friends in the office and actually have some separation of life/work
Remote is godlike
and it's fun to socialize with your coworkers not on slack
fully remote is goated if they let u come into the office whenever u want
@static moth exactly
esp in NYC offices a lot of the coworkers you meet are actually cool people
Literally don't have to commute at all and you dictate your own working hours
not like mountain view drones who wake up at 6 AM to go "hike"
noo because then seniors (the people you’d want to see) never show up
i feel like hybrid would be better bc then theres set days where your entire team will be there
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
goated
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
how many rounds is new grad ddog?
6 lol
wow wtf
wow
damn ppl are hearing back from netflix 👀
ikr lmao
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
yea google nyc is fucking insane
recruiter phone -> OA -> Tech Screen (harder version of intern final) -> 3 round final (coding, Design, behaviorial)
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
I’m fine with google mtv
cant u just transfer offices
naw bro go to DDOG, fuck google mtv trust me
it's so dreadful here
I feel like googlers are not tech bro like
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
i wouldnt want my kids going to an ivy
Meta seems brutal with their stack ranking
But their new grad 2023 is open, they are recruiting at my school lmao
oh word?
might as well try, even though i'll prob get fucked with some LC hard by a IIT guy
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
what school do you attend?
A top cs school
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
It's not opened to the publix afaik
You have to send if within 14 days of last result
*public
You also have to send if you retake
I don't think so...
😢
HRT needs like 847 lmao
but i dont htink HRT actually cares that much about OA
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
its because with an interview you have a chance to explain your thought process and everything, but with an oa it's just does the code work or not. Also a lot of interviews don't even run the code
see my msg above i feel like hrt is just resume screen reject
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?
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?
unless it's proctored i guess
make sense but i wouldnt put a freaking filter for like 840
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
damn fuck no netflix OA for me 😔
how do you guys figure out #4 on codesignal. I don't even understand the question
Didn't someone get final with like 814
it’s data structure based
Isn’t Netflix oa not auto
i dont have one 🥲
Last year I didn’t get one at all
This year?
prob helps a lot to have a referral as well
not that it's easy to know someone at netflix
I mean last year roblox was giving phone for 780+
Aug 26
I applied Aug 23rd no OA
Roblox seems to more tough with giving final round
I didn’t do roblox oa I was like f this
they can't refer new grads
think so
UGH of fucking course
april 23 was the first day it dropped
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
How much time after Bloomberg phone interview do we hear back?
like with a good referral i've seen ppl get offers without even solving the onsite questions fully
and im sure the referral had SOMETHING to do with it
I never used referrals
you're a king, your resume must be top notch
Nah I get ghosted all the time
he just like me
fr
kinda surprised i didnt pass resume screen for netflix tho
did u get a rejection email tho?
nah
naw king don't get attached to a specific company, easiest way to ruin your week
yea exactly luck is 50% of this shit
being lucky is better than anything else, just like everything else in life lol
yea nah its good its not some dream or anything, just wondering what it takes lol I got top 5 school and amazon + a unicorn internships
12:44 pm
Google already released new grad apps
do you guys think Netflix is rolling out OA's?
for meta i think they're on freeze right?
They closed it after a week
Wtf
i mean even if they do open it up, im not sure why the fuck they would open up new grad apps when they aren't even giving return offers to their EE interns
wtf.
@rain patio meta had a resume drop for my school for new grads yesterday 😂
Cal?
u already got netflix oa?
netflix app came out aug 23rd yeah
what lists do you guys use to look at new grad openings? or is it just the typical handshake/linkedin/etc
yuh
im not sure if i should be looking at some consolidated list or just find them one by one on job portals
the #grad_postings_old channel is good but too hard to wade through
@rain patio imo you can just chill u have a good return offer, enjoy life
damn why didn't my resume pass the screening for netflix bro 😔
Tough
appreciate it king, but I am curious how far my luck can take me
is databricks ng good?
after getting so lucky with DDOG i'm feeling good about the goddess of luck
thank you !
there can be a lot of rejections but it only takes one yes
why are there so many new grad lists wtf
hope so
They are probably looking for a specific set of skills/experiences. I haven't had a problem passing resume screens so far this year but seems like Netflix is an L. Just rng
I'm in the same boat. I'm not stressing but I'm still curious what cards I have
must be nice 😦
WAIT Meta hiring new grads? WTF bro we interns dont even get return offer and they wanna hire new grad?
i only have like a 30-35% response rate rn, so surprised i heard from netflix'
Was there an option for a cover letter on the app? Just wondering
yeah like wtf i have a long list of skills, 2 internships (1 faang), T75 school and decent enough gpa (3.2) i feel like i really shouldn't have trouble with resume screen
Is Netflix codesignal no longer auto
what’s ur return offer
true. It's not even about the pay for me at this point, I just wanted to work in a company where the product is consumer facing, but yea... pretty rough out there with this economy
also Netflix OA isn’t auto?
Was never auto
No it used to be
no intern has heard it yet, just verbal offers at this point
Summer 2022 intern OA was auto
meant what company
that’s false
Netflix sends out codesignals on a rolling basis, it's not all sent out at once
I never got the OA for summer 2022 Netflix
u also ddog?
ikr? my friend with EE rating was crying b/c of this, and now they're opening up new grad openings? I don't get it man
yes sir
My response rate is 0% rn, one resume reject from weride.
7 days since I started applying, no responses yet.
planning on returning most likely, really really liked it
yooo joining there next week
congrats man!
im EE too
They’re definitely doing meta university im p sure
😦
The program for first and second years
Tbh good new for me
Sorry
man I hope you get it in december or something. If they're opening up new grad positions i think that's good news for you man
^
t10 CS?
im in CMU and we haven't had our career fair yet but i'll see if they come in
Did anyone of you give google OA ?
I doubt it our career fairs are so shitty it's not even funny
If yours are shitty....
Someone we have Google coming to our career fair
for resume reviews
so actually not career fair
Career fairs are pretty dumb. I don't even think a lot of companies care about them anymore
Anyone got Google QA yet?
Y'all are pretty lucky tbh to have big companies come to u
yea it's just throwing your resume into the void
unless it's grace hopper
No, Google hasn't given me anything yet
conference databases are legit, ghc and tapia you dont even have to attend to drop your resume
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
Some companies don't care anymore. Microsoft is sending fewer recruiters to my school and stopped honoring our career center's offer deadline requests
Is it still codesignal gca?
Companies don't usually find their best talent at career fairs
The netflix OA is GCA codesignal
jesus. Yea the offer deadlines get bent all the time I heard
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
Yeah I asked to extend my deadline and they said no. Im just gonna renege if I get something better
but then again rescinding is also a terrible idea esp since im international and i can get in trouble with OPT / etc
the fuck? LMFAO
I'm American lol I guess it's my privilege to be able to do that
Definitely sucks if you're international
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
@rain patio do u have any pro tips about working at datadog
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
I would say team choice is very important, but overall it's a great company
just be very honest in the team survey match
i got placed on real time usage
some "sexy" teams are a nightmare to work in
and vice versa
did you intern there @bleak raven
nah
as an intern you'll have fun, the expectations are pretty low lol
my project is rewriting the algo design for the team 
@bleak raven sounds so fun tho
yoo
they have fun
nice
you thinking of joining FT if they offer you?
does anyone know if being matched on ripplematch is actually meaningful or not
it said "strong match" for ddog but i know my ass should prepare for the realistic chance of getting resume rejected
is that for full time?
hmm I see
I would say for DDOG the interviews are reasonable
the hardest part is getting an interview
at least according to the new grads
yeah, resume reject by ddog is harsh
i already accepted microsoft 😔
msft gave me until sept 16
my friend who is stanford MSCS (now at google MTV) got resume rejected for DDOG internship
it makes no sense
it's all RNG i guess
previous internship xp?
she worked at big korean tech company
yeah everyone i've talked to that has gotten an ng interview for ddog did decent on their internship interview last year
ill wait for the 1 week anniversary of my app
and it’s a good offer, 190k, would be stupid to turn it down , so maybe i’ll renege if i like the team thattt much
and then email
L60?
L59
DDOG might beat that
Did you negotiate? I'm L59 and at 170
they def will, but should i renege is the question
Msft stock is really stable tho
Did you negotiate?
turning down 190k would indeed be stupid
yea, also i’m in nyc pay band
and reneging on a big company isnt as big a deal
Makes sense. I think mines like 170k for redmond
I'm also thinking of accepting then reneging
msft NYC? sick.
all depends on your DDOG experience I guess
its “remote” but since outlook ios is based in nyc they’re letting me go to office if i want to
what I really liked about DDOG is the people though
yup that’s what my manager said
wouldn’t have changed anything tbh
ddog return would be given in december

and wouldnt need to reneg
bro palantir gonna reject me after behavioral 💀
People are gonna get netflix offers before Sept 15?
I've seen a couple ex-Square interns join DDOG so I should ask them why they made that choice
cus Square seems like a really cool company
not sure if they're even hiring rn but I would try for a loop there
dang looking like netflix ghosted me lel
same
I visited the nyc ddog office cuz my friend interned there and the people seemed super cool. He described it as the 'frat' of the tech world and I'd agree
huhhh
DDOG is having better financials than square no?
NYC tech people are just always cooler imo
not sure actually. And I got a bachelors in finance. Smfh.
I’m in NYC for an internship rn and the hustle in this city is pretty infectious
there's definitely a "boys club" of pre-IPO millionaires who are tech leads etc, but it's not really observable unless you really look close
Been here for 4 days and people are well dressed and look really good
hehe yea why i like nyc
bruh seattle fashion was so bad
i cried
the people are hotter, they dress better, have better taste, don't go "hiking" for fun, do drugs, etc etc etc
i was overdressed and i barely dress up
I hate seattle
whats so bad abt seattle
It's super lame
you’ll find out soon 
and the best part about NYC: you literally can go 10 years without interacting with a single tech person outside of your office if you really want to

it's the cultural capital of the USA
No dating life, no good nightlife, there's not that many cool things to spend your money on
it's not even close.
It's literally just stoners and hikers
do u just dress casually to interviews?
Very underwhelming
Yeah I just wear a t-shirt
I wore a realtree camo shirt to my interview
lmfao
anything with a collar for me
yea it's boring as fuck
i havent and dont expect to get any
I think NYC is dirtier
seattle is dirty AND boring
if you are from a foreign city, you realize any city outside of NYC in this country is not a "real" city
seattle sucks
boston is legit imo, just small
but even then boston is dead past 12am
if you stepped foot into london, paris, taipei, seoul, tokyo, beijing, you can't even be happy anywhere else outside of NYC
not even citadel TC can make my ass move to chicago
laguna beach baby
yea I'm not white enough and didn't listen to kanye enough to romanticize chicago
you go to a school 2.5 hours from the city... ?
90% of the people I know are from there. I've visited many times
might as well be from upstate new york and say nyc sucks
haha yea most citadel SWEs seem to be in NYC
i have one quant friend who went to chicago
i wish chicago had more of a tech scene. great city as a new grad to be in. cheap and still a lot of fun
serious question: does codesignal care if I talk to myself during proctored GCA LOL? I def was talking out lout a bit here and there (maybe a lot of swearing LOLOL)
but i have a teammate who worked in SIG and two sigma, and he said don't ever go to those companies so im scared (not that I'll ever pass those interviews)
Yeah my issue with Chicago is that the only thing people do there is drink. It gets exhausting going to happy hour literally every dya
Yeah but that crime rate tho
he said devs are priority #2 in the company and you feel it everyday
devs are there to support the traders, not the other way around
but I guess with 400k TC nothing fucking matters
its not even in the top 10 in the US anymore is it
Yeah Chicago crime rate isn't crazy. Like if I lived in the Bronx in NYC I would hate my life too. Just live in a nice part of chicago
2020 was a bad year for Chicago, hopefully now it's better
2020 was a bad year for every city
Yeah NYC wasn't great either. I was nearly jumped in central park in broad daylight
Design an Ordered StreamC1
you gotta have the mentality that you can outrun any threat
never felt unsafe in nyc, but i'm a man who can run fast so YMMV
Ha. It was a homeless man who just grabbed my backpack. I turned around and said "what the fuck is wrong with you" and then briskly walked away
just be smart about where you go in any city
more prep 
for new grad???
I don't feel unsafe either it's an awesome place
what are some good resourcs to practice?
practice system design
Which companies ask sysdesign for new grad?
If tech comes it won’t be cheap anymore lol
you're asking the wrong person sadly LOL I never practiced nor faced sysdesign in interviews thank fucking god
leetcode is hard enough miss me with that shit
Bro how is everyone getting spacex OAs did I apply to the wrong role
I didn’t see an ng SWE role
Bloomberg does
@rain patio if u go to cmu do u know the tik tok SWE intern girl
Did I just apply late or some shit? It's absolute crickets in my inbox
My friend said Walmart did lmaoo
@rain patio that’s rude, her tik toks are just memes she’s actually funny
true true yea but i dont even know who that person is
I just assumed they made some "day in a life of a meta intern" videos
Nah I agree with fatbao low key people should have hobbies outside of work
which are undoubtedly, objectively corny
I remember seeing Meta interntok that was like "rush sorority? no rush meta!" and the comments sent me
Yeah that’s the tik toker I’m talking about
There’s a GitHub on system design that’s p helpful!
She made videos about leetcoding during meta internship after they cancelled returns
😂😂
ive been asked not to share exact figures but its above 200k TC
with a bit over a quarter being equity
Honestly the first time I saw it I thought it was a pretty good joke
recurring
ok then I don't retract what I said LMFAOOO
but i am a terrible person to ask about this, I can't stand those "day in a life of SWE" tiktoks or videos
they're just so.... corny
like so corny I can't even think straight
shes working at omc next year which is crazy

do you have a link to it by chance?
I think that’s the one
yup
who lol
@ sweintern on tiktok
lmfaoo no way this girl only posts recruiting tiktoks
since when did being a swe intern become "cool" it's like the 2010s version of being a goldman sachs investment banking intern
this is why i hate techbros bruh
they're like finance bros but they don't even have the self awareness of finance bros
right but now we have quant bros
Cuz we make a lot of money! All hot females should bow down to our large TCs and immense intellect!
what's OMC? lmfao
this girl is so fucking annoying
based
but its true tho
her content is pure cringe
can you imagine how good she is at LC tho if her @ is sweintern
she must be a machine
oh sorry my queen i didnt mean that
New grad is 133k base in Boston for c1 now?
no
128k base 5k yearly bonus
no problem
(she roasted my school's cs program when i met her irl
)
a little higher
the sweintern girl???
Bruh that's savage
Didn't she go to mit
no cmu
That's wild
Did everyone get Netflix OA
no 😢
Rolling basis or all at once
Seems like it’s rolling
does anyone know in all seriousness, how long it usually takes to hear back from companies that dont do automated OAs?
i know its rng
but average case scenario
Get a cracked resume
mine is okay but idk how to make it more cracked
im at a dead end with what i can do without lying to make it more cracked
i have amazon on my reusme but thats abt it
Is tiktok new grad 2023 position open?
Yes
Can anyone send the link pls, I can only see Singapore positions ;__;
can I dm you about OMC
TikTok's autofill with resume is the best I've used
How do u know?
Yeah. Get your offer and move on
nah the whole reason is to get a company offer is to flex online
I love flexing on interns
I want high tc so I can spend time with prostitutes
Yeah but I’m cooler than these other guys
I have full timer friends 😎
Lmaoooo
Auto correct exposing me
am i an intern
Yes, you give off intern vibes
hello fellow 'terns
im interviewing for fulltime rn
but i graduate fall 23
i hope i can get intern and ft
Until you get a full time offer you’re just a dirty intern, like me

Citadel OA is 3 questions in an hour wtf.. must be an easy in there right?
Have you not seen their pay
lol not trolling, citadel OA is surprisingly easy
I took it last year and passed all test cases
But you have to get past resume screen after
That’s the hard part
It might have been, I took it last year when I did like 10 lc sooooo everything felt like a lc hard
doesn't Cit have a large question bank? OA difficulty is probably rng
