[normal palm]

[tardy geode]

[unique cargo]

Amazon has the most involved application I’ve seen

It’s like completing your FAFSA

[tardy geode]

idk how an additional visa status got added in the app , due to that only thing i am unable to submit it

and when i try to edit that section

throws me a 500

😢

and they reply like once in a day 😦

[foggy star]

does anyone have any tips for codesignal

[gray niche]

1,2,4,3 + rng

Codesignal is strictly RNG do your codesignals as often as you can get one high score from RNG and apply everywhere with it

[foggy star]

Appreciate that tbh man

some of the ones you get are very easy and others are LC hard, its all over the place imo

[prime palm]

wtf really?

holy shit

[lilac siren]

actually TikTok/bytedance didn't have return offer too

everyone were told to get their return offer on the last day

but none has received a formal one

just some verbal return offer

at least my friends here are still waiting for the recruiters' call

[buoyant herald]

My meta internship got cancelled due to uscis work authorization delays. Instead I took classes and guarenteed graduating on time. Low key blessing

Also spent the summer hella leetcoding 😤

[dusky plover]

code signal 4th problem 280/300

[smoky lodge]

L

[weak latch]

Cisco OA easy as fuck

sooooo easy

[marble bronze]

And yet they still rejected me last year pepehands

[quick wraith]

I would have been happier with 0/300

[marble bronze]

Not even a phone screen with them

[quick wraith]

nope

I have a 776

time to seppuku

codesignal doesn't have partial grading

[weak latch]

1. rotate NxM matrix 90 degrees
2. for an array of values, set res[i] = "PRIME" if it's prime, "COMPOSITE" otherwise
3. IPv4 validation (split at the . and check if any value exceeds 255)

90 minutes to do it as well lol, i finished in like 10 minutes

[marble bronze]

Nice

Hm. I wonder if Java STL has a prime method?

[weak latch]

i dont think so

i just wrote the O(sqrt(n)) method to check if something is prime

and then returned a big list comprehension 😂

[marble bronze]

Or if I have to dig into my memory of how2prime

Oh God I've forgotten

[queen pelican]

Got a return offer from amazon applied scientist, tc 450k

[queen pelican]

Negotiated after 3 rounds

[smoky lodge]

[weak latch]

out of curiosity

[quick wraith]

Sir, what is your TC?

[smoky lodge]

[weak latch]

[smoky lodge]

[quick wraith]

[smoky lodge]

[marble bronze]

Honestly

[weak latch]

[smoky lodge]

[digital osprey]

Has anyone had a final where they "pair program"

[weak latch]

ooooo

that actually sounds like a great final

that's a rly good idea

[digital osprey]

more in line with their day to day work prob

jw if anyone else had maybe gone through a similar one

[late kestrel]

[compact obsidian]

aren't most interviews psudo-pair programming?

like if u get stuck u ask interviewer for help n they give u hints

or if when u explain ur idea and ur on the wrong track the interviewer usually asks u to consider something else

[unique cargo]

Yessir, do you?

[late kestrel]

me with my bb phone. we worked thru a part together 😂

[normal palm]

Yessir

[unique cargo]

Where are you located maybe we can play sometime 😂

[normal palm]

Toronto

[uncut umbra]

does stubhub actually require a distinct codility for each position you applied to

[vast wagon]

I have mine tommorw afternoon

[unique cargo]

Maybe not then, I’m in Florida

[floral plank]

I saw someone with 813 moved on

[buoyant fable]

[slate bobcat]

It’s probably resume screen after

[floral plank]

oh well they are comming to my career fair on friday

[sharp stream]

[lament summit]

Do u get first dibs if u work at seatgesk

[lament summit]

[sharp stream]

Ok so it’s not just me not able to find a lot

Normally people are interviewing for new grad roles even into march right?

[lament summit]

Yeah

[wheat seal]

Expedia owns way up?

[lilac locust]

how hard is it to get amazon

I’m thinking about applying

[floral ferry]

amazon super backed up rn, people been waiting almost a month since their final interview for a decision

[surreal shuttle]

This

I am waiting from 5 days 😩

[floral ferry]

someones waiting since 8/23

another 8/24

[static moth]

not very hard since it's very possible to get the 1x30 final which is pretty much offer in ur hands

but ya things are crazy with the waiting to get oa/schedule interviews

[tardy geode]

right from their application system until their interviewing process everything is messed up

smh

if you even make a mistake in their app form and wanna update it , its so fricking shite that it would update the answer with both the options(like the last saved one and the updated one)

[livid yew]

Tbh that might be your browser auto fill lmao

[serene fable]

Has anyone gotten rejected with a 1x30 recently?

[tardy geode]

so basically for a question if you answer YES and you realise you need to correct it to NO . When you update it , it saves YES and NO both for that 💀

[low scroll]

what is expedia strength based assessment?

[lilac locust]

I heard there’s 3x45 or 2x60

[serene fable]

I want to know if the chances are lower now or if everything just takes longer

[tardy geode]

i spent 5 hours today on that fricking issue , NO its not

[lilac locust]

since when

[livid yew]

Bruh you gotta read before clicking

[tardy geode]

there's 1x30 and 2x60

[livid yew]

Nah but that sucks

[tardy geode]

dude cmon

[lilac locust]

3x45?

[tardy geode]

thats for SDE 1

[livid yew]

Some web forms are just a cluster fuck

[lilac locust]

then wtf is 1x30

and 2x60

[tardy geode]

thats for new grad

[lilac locust]

Wtf is the difference

💀

[tardy geode]

if you apply for SDE 1 then its 4x45

[livid yew]

Lmao first time I've seen someone write "fricking" in a long time. Maybe 5th grade

[tardy geode]

SDE 1 is for people with 2+ years of exp

[lilac locust]

WTF is that shit

[lilac locust]

WHAT

[tardy geode]

idk if i am allowed to use the F word here hence

[livid yew]

Oof

[lilac locust]

Then wtf is the difference between new grad and SDE-1

[livid yew]

Huh never seen swears get blocked in a discord

[static moth]

ya for sure u can get the 2x60. which is like a standard rng algo intervjew. to be fair new grad onsites are generally longer than 2 hours anyways so objectively, since there are fewer rounds to fuck up on, yes, even with a 2x60 it's easier than most new grad big tech onsites

[lilac locust]

I see

[lilac locust]

Then wtf is the difference between new grad and SDE-1

[tardy geode]

compensation and title

[static moth]

industry hire

[lilac locust]

Wtf is a new grad hire

[static moth]

is sde1

i think

[lilac locust]

called

[tardy geode]

BRUHHHHHH

[lilac locust]

Sorry wtf is a new grad hire called at amazon

[livid yew]

New grad is basically SDE0 and intern is SDE -1

[tardy geode]

ng hire is straight outta uni and doesn't require exp

[outer radish]

yo is the bloomberg phone scheduled?

[floral ferry]

since last 3 weeks

[outer radish]

also has anyone applied to bloomberg like two weeks ago heard back lol

[serene fable]

Last time I applied for Amazon I got a 3x45 and I got a 1x30 now, pretty sure I applied for the same role each time.

[lilac locust]

i see all I see ona amazon is sde-1

I don’t see a new grad

[static moth]

haven't heard recently of 1x30 rejects. when did u do urs?

[lilac locust]

[livid yew]

They probably realized they didn't need to redo parts from last time

[lilac locust]

Am I looking In the wrong spot?

[serene fable]

August 31, I'm just worried about the possibility

[static moth]

wtf that's so far back

[tardy geode]

1x30 = offer , unless one cheats hard on OA

[serene fable]

Not entirely sure, I did legitimately do better on the OA, think that made the difference

Definitely didn't cheat on the OA but still anxious

[tardy geode]

ik a guy who failed 1x30 , bro had hardly done 10 LC questions 💀

[lilac locust]

[livid yew]

Lmao don't cheat. That doesn't help anyone

[tardy geode]

yea

[lilac locust]

Does Amazon do whiteboard coding

[tardy geode]

i mean even if one cheats they gonna get exposed in real interviews . either ways its a loss

[serene fable]

What's the opposite of copium? Pretty sure that's what I got regarding Amazon

[tardy geode]

they used to but stopped

[lilac locust]

[lilac locust]

since when

[tardy geode]

2018 ig

[livid yew]

Yeah even if you make it to offer, probably look like a dumbass at work lmao

[serene fable]

Not hopium either, more like potentially unreasonable anxiety

[tardy geode]

yeah

[lilac locust]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I’m PRETTY sure my friend had to whiteboard code in his interview for Amazon

[tardy geode]

my friend who graduated in 2017 did his Amazon onsite inperson , he was flown to seattle.

[livid yew]

I'd bet it's all LC in an online platform these days

[lilac locust]

I agree

but he did it in a whiteboard

[tardy geode]

whiteboarding would actually save you than virtual onsites honestly

[lilac locust]

How

[livid yew]

Unfortunately I hate LeetCode and competitive programming in general

[lilac locust]

Agreed

[tardy geode]

whiteboarding , its most of the times pseudo code and discussion

[lilac locust]

Yeah

[livid yew]

Was never a big topic at my university lmao . Like nobody ever talked about LeetCode

[compact vortex]

honestly whiteboarding >>> virtual onsites

[tardy geode]

i just wanna get an offer and stop LC tbh

[lilac locust]

What if it’s both

[livid yew]

I still do a couple problems every week tbh

[tardy geode]

i did a whiteboarding interview for a startup in MA ,it was 10x better than online interview

[lilac locust]

I see

@tardy geode I want you to get amazon

how come are you still praying

[livid yew]

I am that one insane person who would rather do a take home project

[tardy geode]

[lilac locust]

How do you get amazon

so you’re saying SDE-1 industry does a 4x45????

[tardy geode]

bro i am still having issues in my application , amazon recruiters are bots smh

[lilac locust]

[livid yew]

Just fill out a new app

[tardy geode]

they merge it

i think

[lilac locust]

I’m worried now

[livid yew]

Idk send mass email to all the recruiters

[tardy geode]

their app portal is like a thin glass , one mistake and its broken

[serene fable]

Has anyone gotten a 3x45 this year or is it just 2x60s and 1x30s?

[livid yew]

maybe you get hired to fix it

[tardy geode]

@livid yew

[livid yew]

Lmao ma uses outlook

The fuck

[tardy geode]

thats the first thing i will do

[lilac locust]

[livid yew]

Oh you are international, that could cause some issues idk

[tardy geode]

bro in that visa question ffs don't know how another visa status also got attached with my current visa status .

[lilac locust]

So I applied for An amazon job

how long will it take to get an OA

[tardy geode]

and when i try editing it , it gives me 500 internal error bs

[livid yew]

Lmao

[tardy geode]

only jesus knows that

[lilac locust]

oh I found an old job

It was done over a month ago

[livid yew]

I'm so far removed from international stuff.

When you say visa I think credit card

[lilac locust]

Ummmmmm

does that mean there’s no chance

[tardy geode]

immigration status

[livid yew]

I know what it is

[tardy geode]

its all random

[livid yew]

Just I've never had to think about immigration lmao

[peak ferry]

My 3x45 got canceled and they asked me to schedule a 2x60 instead

[livid yew]

I'm the average American born white male lol.

[lilac locust]

But it’s been a month

[lilac locust]

um

[tardy geode]

ayo what

[smoky lodge]

Fuck Duolingo

[lilac locust]

How the fuck did you get an interview

[lilac locust]

Agreed

[serene fable]

Could this signify a change in Amazon's recruiting this year?

[livid yew]

The fuck only between 9:30 and 11:30

Must be the only slot open

[tardy geode]

oh wait its 2022

in that screenshot

[peak ferry]

ya super late but I never got to do my 3x45 and I haven’t heard any 3x45 for 2023

[tardy geode]

they scrapped 3x45

hence they asked you to schedule 2x60

thats the new 3x45

[livid yew]

Weird

I guess that's better?

[tardy geode]

yeah

ofc

[peak ferry]

ya just verifying that for ryu who asked if 3x45 still existed

[lilac locust]

What the fuck

[livid yew]

Ope Day 7

[serene fable]

Yeah, it's kinda weird

1x30s and 2x60s were a thing before 2022, right?

[lilac locust]

@tardy geode day 7

[tardy geode]

before 2022 it was 3x45 or 1x30 @serene fable

[serene fable]

Makes sense

[peak ferry]

bro I did the OA literally months ago, they canceled my interview and ghosted me for like 3 weeks LOL

Amazon is wilding

[lilac locust]

Jesus Christ

[tardy geode]

amazon is all luck and rng

[lilac locust]

What the fuck is amazon doing

[peak ferry]

dunno

[lilac locust]

[peak ferry]

don’t care at this point I have offers expiring before amazon can schedule anything

[serene fable]

In fairness, isn't all tech kinda fucked this year?

[lilac locust]

What company

[peak ferry]

big tech yes medium tech not so much

[livid yew]

Damn my process different lmao. As a 2020 grad I'd be doing industry hire at probably SDE2

[whole berry]

quite literally

[lilac locust]

when you do SDE-2

Go for akuna lol

[livid yew]

Is this a question?

[peak ferry]

probably ya

[lilac locust]

Yes

[peak ferry]

just got to move to fucking Chicago lol

[livid yew]

Akuna is the trading firm?

[peak ferry]

yup

[livid yew]

Yeah not a field I'm interested in

[lilac locust]

I might have to make a confession….

[livid yew]

A bunch of C++ and Rust and stuff

[peak ferry]

confess ur sins

[tardy geode]

for 2022 internship my friend gave all optimised soln plus answered all LP's well still he got rejected , so basically if the interviewer wants you in then you're in . doesn't matter how you perform . another dude gave half soln and couldn't optimise it and he got in 💀

[lilac locust]

[peak ferry]

I like high performance code even if c++ is the devil

[livid yew]

What's your confession @lilac locust

[lilac locust]

do you think if you have a final interview at amazon you’re basically in

[calm shale]

I like JS

[lilac locust]

I may or may not have been looking into amazon

[livid yew]

JavaScript is a love hate relationship

[lilac locust]

and I have applied

[peak ferry]

never mind u can’t be saved

[livid yew]

Cries in NodeJS engineer

But at least Typescript

[tardy geode]

NO , even if i give the final well i would assume i have nothing in hand and would act as if i am still in the interview process until i get the offer letter . amazon is rng x10000

[lilac locust]

Okay

[tardy geode]

i mean i wouldn't be attached to it

[lilac locust]

Oooookay

good to know if I get a final

[tardy geode]

but atleast want a chance to reach the final

[peak ferry]

TS is ok/10 if what I heard is to be believed

[smoky lodge]

i have an STD

[tardy geode]

as i didn't even get an OA for 2022 intern

[calm shale]

TS is nice

[serene fable]

Worth noting the difference between 2x60 and 1x30 interviews here, 1x30 is legitimately easy most of the tie

No guarantee though

[smoky lodge]

i prayed for an amazon OA and then got tested the next day for STDs and took an L

[lilac locust]

Ooookay

[smoky lodge]

what does this mean

[livid yew]

Yeah I mainly use Python, Ruby, Java, Kotlin, JavaScript, Typescript, Terraform (doesn't really count) and random other languages when it is needed

[lilac locust]

Someone told me about a 4x45?

[peak ferry]

ngl failing an amazon 1x30 must be the most depressing thing

never heard of 4x45 for ng ever

[lilac locust]

Interesting

[peak ferry]

damn mr worldwide over here

[lilac locust]

or a 4x60?

[serene fable]

Haven't heard of any reports of anyone who did well on a 1x30 not getting an offer but doesn't hurt to be cautious

[livid yew]

Nah dude. Just what our team decided to write things in 🤣

[lilac locust]

Fair fair I’ll keep that in mind

[serene fable]

I'm still waiting on an offer after mine

[livid yew]

Most of the python and Ruby is infrastructure stuff tbh

[peak ferry]

ayo sick

[serene fable]

It's been 2 weeks

[livid yew]

I did recently start looking at some Go at work. And damn pretty sexy

[peak ferry]

fuckn amazon sorry to hear that bro

[tardy geode]

💀

[wicked rivet]

just retook my codesignal and got a great score, but got rejected from circle round 1 because of my original shit score

do you think it's worth it to reach out lOL

[peak ferry]

looking at anything that’s not C++ is giving me a hard on

[livid yew]

Bruh

[lilac locust]

Pain and suffering that is amazon

[floral plank]

probably not

[peak ferry]

tbh p sure becoming a c++ dev makes me a sadomasochist

[livid yew]

When did you even learn C++. That was never a thing at my university lmao

At least not directly

[peak ferry]

we had 1 cpp class at school, otherwise I read 1/3 of a book before my interviews LOL

[livid yew]

Oh you learned it for interviews I see

Cool

[peak ferry]

I promise I’m an educated cpp dev = good enough at 3 companies

[serene fable]

Pointers are cringe

[livid yew]

I wouldn't learn C++ just for interviews and then never use it though

[lilac locust]

Anywya I’m gonna apply for amazon

AND HOPE FOR THE BESTTRT

[livid yew]

I'm going to start doing LeetCode in x86

[serene fable]

Never hurts to apply anywhere

[livid yew]

Didn't take 1.5yrs of assembly programming for nothing lmao

[peak ferry]

T&& is the real cringe

[livid yew]

Do everything in Lua

[peak ferry]

cringe is when passing a lambda that calls a function is usually faster than passing a function pointer

[livid yew]

Tbh I could probably understand C++

[peak ferry]

C++ is a cringe language

[lilac locust]

WHY IS AMAZON SO HAED

[livid yew]

I know C decently well and I know Java

So

[lilac locust]

[peak ferry]

that’s what I thought

[lilac locust]

@peak ferry TELL ME

[livid yew]

Only learned C because I switched majors

[peak ferry]

Literally TAd my unis intro to C class and I’m a Java lord and C++ is literally the devil

[peak ferry]

bezos wakes up in a good mood and ur cruising thru

[livid yew]

I was a TA for the freshman Java courses

[lilac locust]

I go sleep now

[livid yew]

Some funny code in there

[lilac locust]

Bloomberg morning phone interview at 9:30

Need my zzzz

[livid yew]

Not that early tbh

[peak ferry]

ayo fuck zon get that BB cash

[lilac locust]

And school career fair afterwards

[peak ferry]

I woke up at 7 for my 8am cit interview today

Fun stuff

[lilac locust]

Double penetration

[lilac locust]

I would never do a 8am

[livid yew]

Pretty standard schedule lol

[peak ferry]

I normally wake up at noon

[livid yew]

I wake up at 7 and start work at 8:30

[lilac locust]

I interview during mid day

[peak ferry]

Normally I wouldn’t but they’re EST and I’d suck dick for 300k

[livid yew]

Nah dude gotta have consistency in sleep

[lilac locust]

I’m EST too

[livid yew]

300k is pretty poggers

[peak ferry]

I’m PST so it’s 3hr early my time

11am est

[lilac locust]

oh.

[livid yew]

9am is not early. The fuck y'all on

[serene fable]

We're all lazy college students

[livid yew]

Bro I had 8am lecture all 4 years. Cry me a river

[peak ferry]

I’m a night owl without a job so I don’t wake up early unless I need to

[livid yew]

I'm so used to the schedule

Our High school started at 7:30 lmao

[peak ferry]

bro that actually sounds like ass

[livid yew]

Not really

Done by like umm

[peak ferry]

iirc my hs started at 8ish

Actually not sure tho

[livid yew]

Y'all such lazy fucks

[lilac locust]

suck it up

[livid yew]

Need discipline

[serene fable]

ok boomer

[lilac locust]

we dont deal with that shit

[livid yew]

Damn no spank emoji

Kek

[livid yew]

Only maybe 2-3 years older than you lol

[serene fable]

Boomer is a state of mind

[livid yew]

Facts

I skipped the Zoomer stage in High school.

Well I guess eventually it will catch up to you

[dire yarrow]

Even my high school started at 8

Had to wake up at 7

But college got me lazy

First class 12pm

[livid yew]

Crazy enough they changed it from 7:30 to 8 the year after I graduated

[dire yarrow]

And now waking up is the worst part

Of my life

[peak ferry]

Class starts at noon and I don’t go 💯👌

[serene fable]

Mood tbh, still hate mornings though

[livid yew]

I got railed by my high school harder than lumens mom did last night

[serene fable]

Getting later classes in college is great

[livid yew]

Well true

But now imagine having a 6-9pm class

Once per week though

[peak ferry]

bro I had a 6-10pm mandatory attendance class LOL

Once a week too ya

[livid yew]

Mine was a political science class

[peak ferry]

anthropology

Nice prof actually

[livid yew]

Anthro 101?

[peak ferry]

Decent GE

[serene fable]

Took multiple of those, it does suck

[peak ferry]

Some intro idk the numbers at my school

[marble bronze]

imagine

[serene fable]

Means you don't have as much for the rest of the week though

[livid yew]

Oh yeah Tech Comm good times

[marble bronze]

I am looking forward to being able to write better engineering documents

[livid yew]

Gonna be a Confluence God

[pastel bane]

[pallid kernel]

[pastel bane]

[modest night]

@gritty adder are new grad swe apps for meta coming out in two weeks or do you mean interns?

what your saying lines up with what another person had said earlier. Which was that meta apps coming out in october

[vast mica]

I gave final interviews for seatgeek on 2nd September, havn't heard back since. Is it a good thing or a bad thing your experience? everytime I have bugged a recruiter after final, I have got a reject, So dont know what to do here

[tardy geode]

i would suggest you to wait until monday then maybe drop a mail?

[vast mica]

yup, I think I will do this. Thanks

[tulip mountain]

what the hell man

doordash frontend insta reject with meta frontend project on resume and like 3 react projects 😭

[tardy geode]

same bro same

[tulip mountain]

🍀

[gritty adder]

The talk was mainly for interns here, so she didn’t really mention anything about new grad

But said the roles will start with SWE and Meta University, then other roles will come out in rolling waves like PM

It was a cool panel they brought some of their SWE and a PM to talk

[modest night]

bloomberg makes phones????

nah im playing and ye i do

not anytime soon tho

they must be conducting 5 million interviews

[autumn ridge]

Yeah I had one that got canceled last minute and haven't heard back from recruiter or contact yet

Anyone have advice for palantir phone? Is it just behavorial? This is first call after karat

[sick steppe]

lmfao

I feel so dumb I didn't know about the CS job grind until this year

You 2023 grads are applying all the way in sep 2022 insane

[vast mica]

just behavrial, may ask why palantir, what 3 things are you lloking for your next opporunity and all. Read about their products also

[sick steppe]

I should've been applying since sep 2021 since I was a 2022 grad lmfao, but I was just swamped with uni work lol.

[whole berry]

youre in the same boat as me

the grind starts way earlier

[sick steppe]

I was a late bloomer 2022 grad though

I just finished on Aug 12th

[whole berry]

damn

[sick steppe]

2 weeks into my serious job search though

[whole berry]

[sick steppe]

Got one IBM OA so far and it's week 2

[whole berry]

ibm OA is a good sign

[sick steppe]

That the resume hits at least right?

Capital one is brutal

[whole berry]

[whole berry]

[whole berry]

[sick steppe]

I knew what was coming but I was in college still looking at the economy and I didn't know the inflation would get this bad

[latent sun]

bro wtf is this shit with verkada

[sick steppe]

Because 2021 felt like a clown world economy with all the stimmy, crypto, and etc

[latent sun]

https://techcrunch.com/2022/09/14/vcs-look-the-other-way-as-they-give-205m-more-to-verkada-whose-tech-has-been-abused-repeatedly/

@dense blaze it’s not fake I swear

Maybe I was drunk applying

Airbnb will lay me off faster than anything 💀

[dense blaze]

[surreal shuttle]

Figma is acquired by Adobe

[bleak raven]

figma no longer valuable to join is it

[azure zephyr]

has anybody heard back from them?

[prime palm]

no fucking way

this is.....awful

[shell fern]

there goes ever getting past figmas resume screen

[lilac locust]

[simple elk]

There goes any reason to join figma

[jaunty basalt]

Adobe, hardest company

[shell fern]

Are they gonna put it all behind a paywall now?

[simple elk]

rip

[azure zephyr]

why is there hate for adobe tho? what am i missing here

is it bc adobe is an older company

[simple elk]

fair enough

[lilac locust]

Idk but I want Amazon

[sonic coral]

Adobe pays well tho

[jaunty basalt]

The resume screen gonna be

[sonic coral]

Lol yeah I’ve never heard back from Adobe

[frank wedge]

Already is

Jinx

[surreal shuttle]

Nope

But people who joined when it was 10Billion valuation doubled their money

Adobe bought it for 20 Billion

[simple elk]

📈

[bleak raven]

but at least u can sell back stripe big RSUs back to company

now “figma” is gonna give adobe stock

actually it could be a linkedin <-> microsoft thing

[simple elk]

Isn't linkedin just given msft stock

[bleak raven]

yes

so it could be figma is given adobe stock

but just more than regular adobe employees

[grand barn]

How do you chose the code sample for interview?

[simple elk]

Or they full integrate and figma no mo

[sonic coral]

Adobe pay really ain’t that bad tho, also it’s possible the figma employees might have slightly higher pay for a bit

[simple elk]

but that would be a couple years away

[sonic coral]

I know like twitch used to have higher pay than zon for a while

[simple elk]

Audible used to have a different vest

[empty ibex]

damn SEC filing and everything https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/796343/000114036122033413/ny20005310x2_8k.htm

[bronze nymph]

damn rip figma

if you can’t beat ‘em join em

[simple elk]

Realize it doesnt matter if you can beat them or not and just get your 20B

[sonic coral]

But yeah Adobe pays 180-200 in bay for swe 1

So idk why people are freaking out lmao

[wicked pendant]

ik among creative people theres generally a lot of hate for their subscription model since you cant outright buy photoshop or whatever you have to pay 20-55 dollars a month or smth

[bronze nymph]

i don’t think it’s about the pay, it’ll probably go up bc of increased liquidity due to merging w/ a public company

[simple elk]

it looks like they start people 170-180 but you can get pretty high with nego

[bronze nymph]

more so the product will likely decline due to bureaucracy would be my guess

but tf do i know

[sonic coral]

Yeah so I mean considering figma also has a nyc office the pay should still be quite good

[sonic coral]

Ok true the culture may change

It ultimately depends on how Adobe treats this acquisition

[simple elk]

Maybe my barometer is f'ed because I have return for that to cheaper city from zon, but that doesn't seem great for sf when you can get the same in a place half the cost

[sonic coral]

You talking Seattle?

[wicked pendant]

ya i think u might be a bit off haha, lots of companies wont go up to 200 unless youre nyc or bay

[simple elk]

Amazon seattle band is for every city that isn't Bay, NYC, or Nashville

RIP Nashville

[sonic coral]

Yeah that’s a MAJOR loophole that Amazon doesn’t seem to care about

I know exactly what you’re referring to

[simple elk]

So Austin, Madison WI, ATL, Denver, Charlotte (i think)

All 170 or 180 for return intern

[sonic coral]

That’s not very common tho

[simple elk]

True

[sonic coral]

It’s a zon thing

Also rip Socal they’re now in that band for some reason, used to be slightly higher lol

[simple elk]

Thats why I say my metric might be fed up

Because its different than most places do things

[sonic coral]

Yeah no earning 180 in like Madison is not common for new grad lol

Look into like epic systems

They pay like 120-140 I think

And that’s good for the area

[bronze nymph]

yea exactly, but you’re right in that it depends on how they treat it

[simple elk]

My friend was going to be a solutions architect at epic systems after getting an Areo degree

He went for an analytics masters instead

[sonic coral]

Lol my guy likes bouncing around

Is he still in school

[simple elk]

Maybe its higher this year but i remember it being like 110

[simple elk]

He accepted the offer last spring, reneged, graduated, then started masters at same uni he was at

[jaunty basalt]

It was 130 for me I think

Like all together cuz they private

[simple elk]

I'm a capper then

[sonic coral]

Lmfao reneging for a masters

Couldn’t he have just looked into those “work and study” masters programs

[simple elk]

He wasn't super jazzed on being an SA or on Madison. Then he got into a masters average grad 115k SA was 80k

1 more year for up to 30 seemed worth

[sonic coral]

I mean where is that 115k even from tho

Avg really doesn’t help you much as an individual

[simple elk]

Their employment report

I don't want to full dox his program but you can see mean, max, median, 25th percentile, 75th percentile and minimum across the entire program for each year its existed

You can also see it partitioned by yoe

[sonic coral]

I guess, the thing with those college stats is ultimately people who get below the minimums usually don’t report

[normal palm]

Rip, Tampa?

[dark cloak]

Anyone else being ghosted by Bloomberg? I passed on site interviews and was emailed after to schedule the engineering manager round and they haven’t replied yet

[swift urchin]

Not sure if ghosted but im still waiting on them to reach back out after the on site technical

[simple elk]

Idk if its a requirement but they have 115 reports out uf 115 graduates last year

I think they might be required to report lol

Or they're at least required if their offer was facilitated through the program, which most are

[modest night]

i got a seatgeek phone coming up

anyone know wat to expect?

Hey guys, how long on average does it take to hear back from TikTok SWE new grad after applying??

[vernal dome]

does anyone know where the easiest oa or interview company is

no amzn plz

[weak latch]

1x30 or 2x60

[surreal shuttle]

1x30

[weak latch]

They’re backed up quite a bit rn so you might be delayed

[weak latch]

Oh W how’d it go?

Just OA review yeah?

[surreal shuttle]

Nothing about my OA

I got asked LC medium and LP question

Guess i am just very unlucky

[weak latch]

This is a really stupid question, respectfully. If you’re just trying to take the easy way out you’re not gonna make it in the industry. You need to study, and study hard, and apply everywhere.

You’ll end up doing plenty of OAs there

If you limit your funnel to “easy” OAs you’re seriously limiting your potential

[late kestrel]

OAs are also very rng

[weak latch]

Wtf? A 1x30 that wasn’t a pulse check?

[late kestrel]

expedia gave me a lc hard, and it could give someone tmrw an lc easy

[weak latch]

Weird

I saw someone last year get word search 2 on the Cisco OA for intern, and I just got prime checker on the new grad oa 😂😂

[static moth]

WTF?

[surreal shuttle]

I also got word search for Cisco

[surreal shuttle]

[static moth]

I did 1x30 2 days before u

got oa1 review

im sorry

[weak latch]

Did you solve though?

[surreal shuttle]

Even for the people who had after me got OA1 review

[static moth]

so sorry

[surreal shuttle]

Yeah it was jump game

I answered

But had hard time explaining my solution

[weak latch]

Why would they specifically make you not do the OA review, so weird. LC medium and behavioral in 30 minutes?

[surreal shuttle]

And gave some stupid story for LP question 😭

[harsh socket]

I think you should do it asap, questions are easy-medium LC

I mean if you’re interviewing with other companies that’s a good look

[chilly burrow]

B da filthy whore u truly r 😜

That’s what I mean

[wicked pendant]

idk if this is good advice or not but what i do is go uhmm gosh i cant remember off the top of my head all of them but i know (company with good tc) is one of them

😭

[formal fable]

Anyone here who had their final round with Amazon last to last week and got a response?

[waxen bolt]

Would y'all take a bloomberg offer or a microsoft offer assuming they paid roughly equivalent salaries for new grad. And which one is more 'prestigious'/looks better on resume?

[primal pike]

i wouldnt because i would never be in a position of having a msft and bb offer

wtf

[lapis cove]

microsoft

wld prob position u a bit better for other tech roles

bloomberg if ur tryna break into more fintech or hft in future maybe

[hexed moth]

i dont think my 1x30 went well lol

the guy was kind ahard to expand

understand

[surreal shuttle]

What did they ask?

[hexed moth]

i mean he asked about my OA and all that

but he kept asking about test cases and i was like yeah the platform had them built in, was i supposed to think of more?

and then when i ran through one with him, he asked for more

and he wanted like 5-6 per question

[west egret]

Also, I doubt any company would believe you if you said no anyways.

[serene fable]

Got an hrt codesignal, any tips?

[surreal shuttle]

have a great resume

[serene fable]

Does hrt resume reject after the oa?

[surreal shuttle]

That is better than mine. My interviewer asked a new LC medium for 1x30

[surreal shuttle]

yes

[hexed moth]

my problem is i think i fucked my answer up

[surreal shuttle]

HRT OA is automated

[hexed moth]

because he kept bringing stuff up

[surreal shuttle]

same bro

[green bronze]

If ur recruiter is laid off r u fucked?

[serene fable]

Oof, my resume is probably mediocre

[surreal shuttle]

when did you have you 1x30?

[hexed moth]

literally ten minutes ago

Like he made me think I had to make changes to my code

And I think those changes messed things up

[coarse quiver]

@slim agate bs in 1h?

[hexed moth]

@surreal shuttle when did u take urs

[floral plank]

Like I don’t want to take a risk and submit a lower grade

Nope, it was 2 technical and 2 behavioural

technical being LC

[frank hawk]

oh ok ty

[tired hollow]

Nope, I got an interval scheduling one and a greedy problem

Yeah it was pretty good. Although I totally blanked during the interval schedule one LOL

[floral plank]

I am probably just gonna submit it
