@novel rain Did you get final?

question everyone

#

does anyone know if Optiver is sponsoring international students?

gray niche

Yeah, I feel like their quick response/process time isn't the same anymore

prisma bay
#

Not sure if they do, since H-1B website says they only sponsored a handful of senior levels and quant traders for the past couple years

fallen fox
prisma bay
#

but they are giving a bunch of OA's and even VO's

#

to internationals, like me

fallen fox
#

good oa practice i guess

prisma bay
#

so what will they do, give us an offer and ask do you need sponsorship we answer yes and they rescind offer?

fallen fox

you will fail background check most likely

is salesforce only giving FTE offers to current interns?

teal jackal
#

Foreseeably, yes

#

Unless someone here knows a salesforce recruiter

#

Who can comment if new grad will be open for general public at some point

Do they generally open up NG apps for long? Or is it mostly returning interns?

just wait a while

every year amazon is rather delayed in responding to people because they have to calculate headcount based off of

how many people accept/reject return offers

I could see more accepting return offers this year

last summer its like

hella people got intern offers or intern return offers and rejected em for Meta Lol

It is a very competitive season this year

I just don’t as a matter as principle— maybe I’d renege some truly dogshit companies but no one I have an iota of respect for

serene fable

What about going to a job and only working a bit before leaving? Is that as bad as reneging?

peak ferry
#

idk haven’t heard about that much, I don’t think it’s wise to do that to avoid reneging

#

Also what’s a little bit?

serene fable
#

Maybe 3 months or so

#

Not sure if that's too small a gap to switch jobs over

peak ferry
#

pretty shifty, can’t say I have any good insight on it tho

serene fable

Does it get any more reasonable if it goes to 6 months or so?

peak ferry

maybe? I don’t think there are any hard and fast rules about this type of thing

late kestrel
#

thats the fun part. at will = no rules

legally ofc it’s just a question about if u care about potential burning bridges or not

it's different for TIP and TDP

for TIP they MIGHT throw some shit code and ask you to fix it

for TDP they ask you to design a full stack app/system (abstractly)

#

but I know some people got asked TDP variant for TIP....

so I have no idea what I should expect lol

Hey Everyone! I had Amazon's final 30 minutes interview last Tuesday and it says in the email that I will hear back in five business days but the portal still says Under Review and haven't gotten any email. Does anyone know what's going on or if you interviewed with Amazon last week did you hear back from them yet?

-> my current internship came back with a return offer (bank in midwest)
-> but I'm set to graduate until 05/2023 (could possibly push to 12/2023 to try to squeeze in another season but idk) -> should I just accept it or should I try for another round of internships / new grad roles?
-> This is my only internship -> don't really have much else and guess I'm just worried about trying to land a tech job later in the future

new grad?

Honestly having a big tech name is on an equal level for all companies. What differentiates you is the team/skills used and if they are best fitted to the application you're going for

its depressing af but its actually not that bad. One year or two of experience and you're golden. plus i'm sure internships in your resume from big tech will play a long ways too

then i just picked randoms out of that list🤷‍♂️

and ask them for sex

or find someone who has been reached out by recruiter

and beg them for email

exotic lintel

"i hope i can send your resume once we are connected"

smoky lodge

recruiters are less likely to reply on linkedin coz everyone will ping them there.

#

for all big companies tho

exotic lintel

yes
but i mean the success rate is low so 🤷‍♂️ i think 1/10 recruiters answer me

#

my Clash Royale clanmate works as recruiter for Meta

dire yarrow

yea for most companies this is the case

how do u do that ?
do you google Hardvard Meta tech recruiter ?

i haven't emailed Meta

talk to other humans around you

use any emails you got
