Amazon is team dependent, more pay and better prestige at a good team, no contest beats Bloomberg
I wouldn't stay at BB for two years
the problem with amazon is that the teams are all over the place
once the market gets warmer, I will jump off to FAANG
Bad team at Amazon makes Amazon a harder sell over bbg
But I get why one would take it
yeah that's probs a better choice
Which amazon teams are good?
Palantir pays nice
I know someone who turned down G for BB
I forget that if you don't have return offer its going in rng
To give you guys some perspective
that man's tripping
lmao
like I'm down to hype up bb since I'll probably work there
it goes down to the line manager level
good and bad in every org
bb also good if you want to super wlb though
it's not a two dimensional question, there are many more factors they could have been considering
*woman lol, they had a REALLY bad internship team
maybe theyre a finance person
i guesssss
they couldn't request a diff team?
Like they just had a bad taste after that internship and didn’t wanna return to G
i guesssss
My offers Google Meta Bloomberg Citadel
just jump to HFT at that point then from google

Idk bloomberg -> hft might be easier than google to hft
no way
google clout is too strong
They like relevent experience
I think google clout > bloomberg clout + finance stuff
Well it wasn’t about it boring I think it was more like the way she was treated or something, she really didn’t wanna get into details
meh I do think bb financial background helps a bit
just not enough to make up for google
100% agree, this is often very heavily misconstrued
I know a guy at G who came from BB and knew this person also and he said that she loves BB now after like 3ish years
like to me Roblox has all the positives of Google and more
Maybe its different for intern then, they liked my BS fideliy experience last year
imo
did you get offer from roblox yet?
or are you still waiting on confirmation
oh
nice
I really hate tier lists because I do think a lot of these choices are subjective in a way
only rough thing I've heard about roblox is that they might have some wacky tech stacks
but that's a thing at every company
just choose the company with the most pay / hr in relation to TC and WLB
ez
There are opportunities to learn finance stuff at bb is what I heard
for sure, there's way more things to consider than people typically tend to factor in
Like you can get involved in finance stuff even if your team doesn’t
hft
harder to sell your financial knowledge from reading a book vs financial knowledge from work
Oh huge perk from bb actually is that you have free news without paywalls
better get prepped to become LGBT if you're going to SF where it's only techbros
finding an nyc position that's not hft is a struggle rn
It’s been a struggle
I value TC > Relationships
NY is super competitive
which is why I'd choose Roblox > Bloomberg
I had two nyc internships and got my verbal return offer rescinded from both lmao
Lol I’m talking about offers
rip past me who thought that I couldn't possibly fail 2 internships
just be 6 feet 4head
Wtf which ones?
snapchat & stripe
I don’t think google is even hiring new grad rn
more like snapchat firing
Like at all
ng isn't even open anymore if you dint get in
Intern app has nyc available tho
it's crazy how we're coming in right the end of a 10 year party
I signed my offer letter hopefully it doesn’t get rescinded
all of them are at risk of rescinding
I wonder how much of a scumbag move it'd be rn to sign multiple companies and renege last second 
I think they’re doing ECI a little different this year, it seems it was decided for me to be in ECI path from the start
It’s not the company that concerns me but the economy lol
Should’ve done that with coin
Like free bonus basically but like nobody could predict that shit
There was one dude who did this last year with like 6 random companies
We'll just be ready at the beginning of the next party in 2-4 years 
true I will say crypto was sus from the beginning
to me at least
We’ll get a low stock price guys!!!!!
Yeah same but like rescinding all new grads? That’s wild
Tbh I don't see the economy getting better next year either
Oh yeah lmao
Coinbase was poorly run it’s not just cause of crypto
2 - 4
Ftx has 1/100 of the devs and they’re doing fine
Ok you have to realize tho hindsight is 20/20
ehh i agree on this only to a degree here
mainly because I've always had 0 faith in crypto
but that's just me maybe
Given what we've seen with companies hiring/firing in the US like it's nothing and the dire job market with freezes all over and incredibly frustrating, painfully long and opaque recruiting process, I think reneging isn't worth pondering over. Do it if you need to. They've got loads in the pipeline and you got you
If you RENEGED faang for cb that def is risky af but if you chose cb out of faang then I mean that’s something else
I also despise crypto with a passion lol
meh
Tbh it's hard to tell if a boom is going bust
But no one has a magic 8 ball
i agree
And at the time cb was a decent company to work at
if coinbase paid similarly or only a bit more than other faangs though there would've been a 0% chance I accepted it
because I sus on crypto completely
I thought coin base paid well
there's probs people who will disagree with my take on crypto but that's their perogative
It does but their pay doesn’t matter if you get laid off
my gf is at ghc rn and the amount of interviews shes getting is wild lmaooo
Same, I fell for it but then I realized it's a hustle. Fuck crypto. I'll still keep trading for now since that helps pay the bills but I'm out once I get a new grad job.
my dumbass over here grindin lc when i shoulda just been a girl !
GHC is one of the best out there
You trade crypto to pay the bills?
That seems uh risky
No matter how legit coinbase is them getting rolled was easily predictable. Rescinding probably wasn't tho
What's GHC?
just transition 4head
Grace hopper convention
Ok yeah THATS def one that was really hard to see coming
HAHAHA
isn't snap owned by meta
i thought codepath was the best out there
I mean I feel like you can't blame the employees for not predicting the future

Yeah I brought it early so I have a good amount to play with
Ur funny my son
AR platform and AR glasses, Snap is the only one of those platforms that’s actually created a functioning pair
Plus the AR creation tools are really good
Isn't snap a meme too, no adult actually uses their product
Ah yes, that's like premium tier access to jobs
And scholarships
literally just walk up to a company table and instantly get a final round interview 😂
that's assuming the metaverse actually takes off 
Creating a good AR platform and hardware is hella difficult
I still have 0 faith in the metaverse lmao
Seems more like an if than a “once” if you ask me
Meta has done pretty well with VR but their best approach to AR is pass through mixed reality
Their current metaverse shit is like worse than vrchat
I personally hope meta just stops with the metaverse pushing stuff, and just focuses on good products
do you have to ace all 4 google interviews to get an offer
Which is like, a VR headset that just has you looking at your VE camera feed
Metaverse is absolute bullshit Lmao
I’m really into AR/VR tech but the people pushing Metaverse know nothing ab virtual communities
idk it genuinely feels like the only worthwhile product meta has anymore is Oculus VR
everything else sounds like absolutely garbage
It's kinda bittersweet. On one hand, great to have more women. BUt the stories I've heard.... Man oh man. I knew this one from abroad, full rent paid by her government in NYC, full scholarship paid (probably grace hopper) and got Google final round internship just like that, along with NVidia and others last year. All before we hit January I think
One of the offers was basically no interview, straight up offer
i feel like the problem with the metaverse is that meta created a solution without any problem
not a concrete problem and not an abstract problem either extrapolated from consumer sentiment
A contact at figma told me recruiting said they emailed me on Sept 15, but I don’t see shit in any of my inboxes (spam , trash, etc.) I let them know but is there anywhere else I might be missing the email?
but also wearing a vr headset is mad uncomfortable for long times
who the fuck wants to do a meeting in a vr headset
Yeah, like the Metaverse concept is very nebulous and means entirely different things to diff people
that shit sounds terrible
like everyone is fine with digital interaction being 2d
I’m not looking forward to a future of sitting in vr headsets
nobody really wants or needs vr shopping
I'm only down if we get brain vr
that's the only time I'll have faith in vr
is if we get sao level vr
sword art online @sour canopy
same
I think there is a lot of value in AR glasses since you’re not taking people out of their environments but just adding content to the real world
lol yeah i get why it happens, its still just wild to hear
Pretty sure the point of the metaverse is literally to force cyberpunk fantasies into reality
Plus form factors are more comfy and you don’t get motion sickness
This is what I think of when I think of the metaverse future https://youtu.be/UrEUzKTt7j0

Is meta the next yahoo?
we'll know with hindsight, we have no idea yet
always a chance for meta to find a "next big thing" that actually makes sense
naw fam google is over
idk if they even hired anyone this year
hired new grads
only people who ever got an interview or anywhere in the process have recruiter referral
i sadly do not
how do you get that recruiter referral?
idk

i wouldnt know, i didnt get it
ohh I should contact my recruiter i guess
amazon stopped hiring it seems like LOL
^
its so fucked this year
amazon is probably assessing hiring needs, like whether or not they can hire all of you to begin with
im pretty sure they raised the bar for intern return offers too
bro i can’t get interviews anywhere rn
no i mean they put people on hold
dry as fuck inbox
and nobody here is saying if they got rejected which is annoying
anyone knows what scale ai ng TC looks like?
does referral matter for amazon?
no
did anyone get visa codesignal too?
applying tomorrow 
kaizoku u might be way too late lol

applied for the internship
will convert that kek
google has piss poor compensation
I honestly don't have much experience or knowledge to comment but I like to think that people in prior years also had many reasons to freak out like this at many points during the process. Hopefully we get more good news soon 
id work at G
me too, i hope
i hope that my lack of interviews isnt a reflection of me
people say that "your job search results arent a reflection of you" but tbh they kinda are
id rather take a google culture than 100k or some shit
google culture?
especially when you're making like 200k at google vs 300k at cit or something
vs 100k?
To some degree yeah, but cannot disregard the importance of luck
Anybody knows if we can get GHC links anywhere ?
id say getting resume rejected from dream company isnt a reflection of you
getting resume rejected everywhere becomes a reflection ofo yourself
That must be such a gigachad feeling
bro why is GHC so goated
"just identify as nonbinary bro"
grace hopper, women only tech conferences
😂😂😂
What happens if men attend
people basically pass resume screening there just by saying hi to the recruiter
Altho this season is different than others you are kinda correct, last year I didn’t really start getting deep in interviews till Oct/Nov
but that's legit networking though
nah, public career fairs are useless
like uni career fairs
but the invite/application only career fairs are kinda goated
^
people walk out with multiple interviews
It hasn’t really helped me
i got an interview at msr because i met people from msr at a conference
Fr? Do you get secretly blacklisted or something
people walk out with multiple offers lol...
yeah, it has to be convincing
the only way to be convincing that youre non binary leaning woman is if you actually believe you are
yikes
lol that sounds terrible
username lines up
i dont mean it that way, its more like you cant really pretend to be something youre not
to join ghc
Pretty sure men can attend ghc but you don’t get any of the special treatment the women do
well yeah the whole point is to hire more women
im not telling people to pretend to be transgender or nonbinary if they dont identify as such just to do GHC
do not misinterpret what im saying
i feel weird appropriating in other peoples spaces anyways, i could never
i dont think anyone is arguing with u rn lmaoo
ah, i was mistaken by this
Oh I’m not interpreting what you said like that, I literally saw posts from women complaining about the amount of men in ghc thinking they’ll get a free pass in interviews at the career fair
LC useless with no interviews
yeah thats true
Like there’s tons of guys who show up to ghc just for the career fair
Thinking they’ll get a fast pass to interviews
Yo when do Rumble NG positions open? @teal jackal
how tf would i know
Lmao
why ping me of all people
you have andrew tate in your name..
tru lol, i think adrew tate is douchey and a scumbag, but my name is like "banned from everything"
should rename to top g of new grad job apps
because im not passing a single resume screening
Skill issue
ive been spamming recruiters via email recently
wait a week, recruiter doesnt respond, i try another one for the company
@knotty talon was it too challenging for you? or just right?
i shouldve signed up for grace hopper smh
same, it was full when I tried to apply lol
i think invite-only conferences in general are pretty goated
as a whole
too bad i didnt find out about their existence until way too late
my sister is an aws recruiter and she said theyre doing on the spot hiring at grace hopper
Not surprised cuz AWS lol
yeah amazon process is very brief
I had a zon return offer and still had like 4 AWS recruiters hit me up lmao
send one my way, thanks !
Microsoft seems hard to get OA
^
i wish i knew how to pass MS screening
ive started to realize my worth
ive humbled
im probably not gonna unlock a big N position this season
im not gonna count on it anymore
im prepared to be homeless
tbh
im sure that even if we graduated with nothing to look forward to in the immediate moment
im sure we'd have family to help us as we try to figure something out
im not worried about homelessness, i just want a job because i think its important to me as a personal goal
I think mostly I'm afraid of "being a failure" which is mostly my self-hatred talking :')
im in a much better mood nowadays
yeah same
but i guess we all fail sometimes in life
i guess we'll have 40 more years to make up for this
plenty of time
on the bright side I'll be graduating with no debt
bc tech internships paid for my last yr of school
which is probably better situation than most people in america
FAILED MY BENCHLING PHONE 😄
I’m confused who does ziprecruiter think they are lolol
Like actually
It's a bit of both and people tend to oversimplify things to quickly jump to satisfy their biases. Real life is more noisy, uncertain or random. I'd say as far as job search for CS majors is concerned, in 2023, it's like 50% skill/background to get a response and the rest is connections/referrals/timing/luck. Post screening, one would hope it's a 100% skill, but I've seen personally that even strongly aligned processes through and through sometimes lead to random results. So, as it is with all random complex processes, hedge your risks with large numbers and keep working on yourself. You'll always benefit from the work, sooner or later
true
Grinding LC/interview prep also isn't a reflection of you
. Its a reflection of if you can grind LC/interview prep
Naa. Don't miss the forest for the trees. You've got a few months of suffering. Even through your life's history, the longest you'd struggle this hard is usually less than a year. Most of the times you will be reaping the rewards of your labour, be it directly via work, or indirectly by some hard time experience. So... Distract yourself from the misery. Focus on video games, food, pussy, movies/TV or something. Work when you need to
I mean, just look at 2021 vs 2022, right? Lol
Night and day
Yeah, but the time gap vs difference is mindblowing
I've seen the most absurdly high offers that I tried to estimate from last year to now impending joblessness
Are non tech new grads also affected this yr?
Probabl
probs but non-tech ngs didn't have high job goals to begin with
At tech companies yeah
I think other industries are less impacted rn but that could be cap
eh i don't think they're less impacted
other majors are just less job focused
so it's not some doomer relevation when the top 1% of jobs are hiring less
I mean finding a job post college for non tech grads was always a massive process too
agreed
but there's not as much of an emphasis in making it in these x companies
I don't think there is any other major beyond computer science that if not hard requires, at least highly encourages you to get assloads of experience while you're still in school
more like other majors just want a job
agreed
I mean I just wanted a job when I was in college lol
Yeah people in non tech are proud they even applied before graduation
yeah

Get back to work

true
I’m done

Thats his apt address

Yeah the company office is only one floor
@foggy perch can i dm you i added you as friend
who tryna switch majors rn?
i really went from like 6 emails yesterday to nothing today
just tryna find my next heroin high i guess 😔
I’m so anxious about this guys
I have nothing to say but I just wanted to express how stressful new grad recruiting is
They closed all the damn applications
anyone heard from Two Sigma?
take a break! exercise and eat well! it's very easy to become shortsighted and lose hope!
ayo
😄
im switching majors to wine and viticulture
so i can drink away my anxiety in style
Relatable
yield prot confirmed
python yied protection confirmed
Cs for big N companies is absolutely oversaturated
Tryhards are still a minority but there are more tryhards than there are jobs at that level
this whole server is a giant big tryhard

fuck it
imma do an additional school year if i dont get a job
after grad
call it a masters
Not sure what the point being made is but if ur saying this field is NOT oversaturated i kinda agree
cock
Its called chicken sandwich
i must not be people :(
Growing startups
tbh, i dont think it'll happen by cutting a ton of headcount for ng, i feel like it'll be mostly higher up (granted im just a student and dont know crap)

trading firms they love this market volatility
The most boomer of boomer companies
guess we'll see about that
nah not safe either as much
since Google ceo had that whole we need to cut the fat and increase productivity at google thing
so I wouldn't be insanely surprised if google went harder on people
google cloud is having layoffs already
true true. my hope is that this results in a hiring boom later
dont you just love it when youre like 98% through an application and it just doesnt want to submit for whatever reason. so you just go "they dont deserve me anyways" and exit the page
cuz thats me
i gave avaibility to my recruiter yesterday for a phone and they still havent followe dup today
should i give them another email
yeah that's true. just gotta get experience
i did wait a bit
i would wait till tomorrow
fsho fsho, im just worried if they forget
Don't worry. Mine took a whole week just to confirm avaibility, lol
i do the same thing lol
BRUH the pinterest hiring process sounds like such a drag
i do that when they ask why do you want to work here
code signal, recruiter phone, phone with an SWE, and then a final round of interviews wtf
literally same
same shit as fucking spacex
even if that's only question left to answer
wtf
phone -> oa -> tech phone -> 4x45 onsite
every1 would be drowning in offers last year
they expect us to bend over backwards just to possibly get a job
fr
im just hoping for something at this point
ill just reapply for ng next year
you can in some companies
then u wont qualify for ng next year
as long as you graduated within the past year
some places just ask for less than 2 years exp
orly lol
like for microsoft and a few other bigN it's just recent grad too
within the past year i think
otherwise you apply for SWE/SDE 1
eh we'll see if the market rebounds lol, i just dont think i have it in me to grind as hard as i did this summer again next year lol
id rather get it over with and chill for 1-2 years
im like. if i dont get 100k tc at least then im just gonna settle on whatever and grind hard for ng next year
Any companies that pay better than Zon are hiring New Grad rn? Trying to get a better offer
Jane Street
In short, no.
I don't think those are possible for me lmao. Never heard back
That OA is crazy
Didn't do it
Isn’t google frozen
I kno a few ppl
Yeah, and I don't like NYC that much
i was like dang that was fast
Good luck
What questions should I expect on a karat (palantir)
or 2x60
just depends on how you did on OA yeah?
yikes
yes
ya boi is a vet luckily so i got some job listings/connections
Believe in ipo and retire
not really lol
for most companies
but like
google, zon, apple, microsoft, meta, etc usually have a much more streamlined process
many others too
above average comp => more extensive process
plus the mess after hm
yeah fair
just seems like pinterest is way too long for not comparable tc
with other companies
oh shit pinterest is worth
i figured they would be less
bro no way its 250k+, zon doesnt even pay that much
Company: Pinterest
Title: SWE L3
Location: Seattle
Base: $145k
Equity: $115k/4
Signing Bonus: $55k
Relocation: $10k
TC: $240k first year, $175k recurring
Note: fb-like refresher policy + perf bonus
bro wtf
but it's also 175k recurring
isn't it codesignal
i was debating whether or not it's worth it to redo codesignal for a higher score
def doing that lol
google doesn't have a phone anymore i dont think
at least not for 2023
from what the recruiter said its just OA -> on site
which is 3x45
Not bad
That is a lower one. You can get 155k+ base, 23k relo and 27k+ rsu. I was offered a bit more than the one you’re showing
damn. it's bay area though right?
goddamn
for bay area?
I’m remote LCOL/MCOL city. 10% scale for all cities except SF and Seattle which are highest band
they aren't offering remote though this year are they?
i dont remember cause i applied on linkedin and just applied just cause lol
Idk how they even have job openings, but if so yes they should allow remote that’s a policy here
they didn't decrease salary at all for you? that's my worry if i get an offer living in hawaii cause my friend works at google here and i have another who works t microsoft and both said that base salary decreases anywhere from 10-20%
💀 amazon recruiter just emailed me for sde2 while i’m dying for a ng oa from them
Lol I said 10% all locations that aren’t Seattle or SF. Most companies do this so not surprising really. It’s not more than 10% though
oh sorry didn't see that part
sweet thanks for the info
anyone here recruit with headlands before? what does their process look like? I took the OA a while ago and just wrapped up a phone screen today and they're setting me up with another phone screen. how many rounds are there total?
I'm about 2 dozen leetcodes into blind75 rn, should I still practice some more before applying to Google/Netflix/more competitive companies?
Or should I apply earlier i.e. rn
do you know if the MLE new grad role has the same TC? (I'd imagine it's still L3)
Not sure, but either that or higher lol
They love mle
I see, thanks!
apply now and keep gridning at this point
has anyone done final round for akuna low level strategy developer
LMFAO

@austere grove hello

How do u know u failed?
Ack rip
Good I’m chilling till I start in a month
Did u exhaust all of the quant companies?
That seems fiscally irresponsible
They’re not just lc and os?
Lmao the random dudes that are there
where can others upload resume to the GHC database?
hold the fuck on lol 9 rounds total? so 3 preliminary rounds and then a 6-round onsite?
Bold move
Hilarious
Thi girl from google saying “I need a change” to Tesla
Bro I sneaked in no joke
Too overpriced to get in
I skipped security
So my resume not in database but I spoke to recruiters and dropped resume
💀
it was irl too, right?
8 hours interview is crazy lmao
oh ok I don't know if that makes it better or worse. like I feel like a 3-4 hour onsite is fine virtual
It's 8 thi
Tho
So much worse
Yeah
yeah exactly lmao
Fuck that I better be paid for spending my whole day interviewing
Lmao
.00000001 * pay
What's a good email to send a day before the final to drop out of a process?
Any templates?
“ Dear Recruiter,
I’m done with this shit. Piece out ✌️Y’all stay safe tho”
Nah I wanna stay on good terms tho 😭
Just in case
why not just do the final and then down the road cross that bridge?
fair enuf
just tell them you took an offer somewhere else and don't want to waste their time
and tell me where it is bc it sounds like they just got an opening 
Lol
Mayb I'll just do the final tbh
I don't think I'll take the offer tho
If i wer 2 get it
Is expedia already closed for their application?
Just tell them you received an offer from your top choice today and don’t wanna waste their time interviewing you
Hi,
Unfortunately I have just received a job offer from another company that I will be taking. I apologize for the update on such short notice but I just received word today. I'd like to thank everyone I have met so far on the ${company.name} team for making this recruiting process as smooth as possible, and once again I am sorry for the inconvenience. I hope that we can work together in the future.
Regards,
Soulkks
Is this good?
we really all do be hearing back about pinterest phone now huh
that flex tho
is that tacky?
anyone have a seatgeek phone ?
to mention i got a job?
what codesignal do you need for pinterest phone
820+
u also need a good resume
dawg wtf do i gotta do to even get pinterest oa
well competing offers
has anyone gotten infinite number line on codesignal
pretty sure you need a segtree to get full credit
but not 100% sure
nah i got full on that problem w/o segtree
How
can someone dm me the trick i wanna learn
how? like a general idea
add obstacles to list
binsearch start and end coord
done
like 7 lines of code in python
no for the check if obstacle exists in range method
if u get the same index for the binsearch for start coord and end coord then it's empty
so you have to maintain sorted list?
anyone get that lamps problem on code signal? i think there r 2 variations of it
How do you guys respond to questions like "In a few sentences, please tell us what excites you the most about the potential of working at X"
Like any pointers
i dont think companies really care if u withdraw from process?
only if u reneg
if they blacklist u bc u withdrew then it's prob a shitty company anyways
^^ i need help on this question also
its hr
i think i had it
Culture and technology?
And say something like you like their product
You a dude?
Considering you made it to finals, you had a good shot man
Fosho
tf you doing at GC?
Taking to recruiters
sure sure 📸
Wow. It's frowned upon for dudes to go there (for good reason) 
Going to GC as a guy is NOT like attending a pride parade as a straight person lmfao
meh yknow if he's bold enough its his move
I'm not gonna be the gatekeeper
I'll let someone else do that
massive minority? what counts as a massive minority for a guy?
I mean It’s a minority oriented event
Nah they have Tapia
I was 2% still minority there
south east asian CS major attending a UC? 
let us know if you get a job offer from this 
or a date lmfao
Show me the picture
If he does, then your gonna see all of 2024 grad channel pull up to GHC next year
Bro actually, there’s this random recruiter that got my phone number, the gender ratio was just insane
Inb4 it's Blizzard 
i'm ready to go to ghc dressed as seniorita joseph
Pinterest not sponsoring?

What conference is this?
You F1 undergrad?
grace hopper conference
F1 grad
You'll be on OPT right?
Naw it's just rng
or you're trash
Ah I’m a guy
either way its not visa lmao
It’s for women and non-binary right?
Just women iirc
most likely yes
I’m a minority though
i don't think they'd reject a non-binary person tbh
bruh
I'm sure a good majority of us here are minorities in some way 
if you think you have the boldness necessary to go to a 99% womens conference
it's your move
i mean if you're a guy going to GHC and you actually attend the talks fair enough
but if you just go there for the career fair lmao
do the talks really matter tho
there are talks at GHC?
i mean its more of like if you go there for the talks you're not just a guy going there to try to slide in recruiter dms
i guesss
theres other conferences for other types of minorities tbh, theyre usually not bad
It's like a massage, people have knots in different places. If you attend the talks, you might get enlightened or smthing or just sleep the entire time
to me there's not a big difference either way
either way you're gonna look like a dude at a women's conference 
although I heard from last cycle that some folks actually went on dates with recruiters afterwards so
how much harder are new grad interviews vs internship interviews at quant firms?
depends on how chad you are too ig
ayo lmao
those dudes had the boldness and charisma to pull it off ig
pretty much the same if not a little easier?
This conference looks good I think
Can I attend this if I'm a minority? 
😦 damn
why would they be easier?
I think they stopped doing 1x30 Yall. I just got an email to schedule my Final round Amazon as 2x60
Less reason to accept an intern == inevitable higher hiring bar
they only did 1x30 if you absolutely finessed the OA lol
I did lmao
They just let you skip the 1x30 altogether for some folk
Everyone is getting 1x30
most recently?
Straight offer?
I got perfect OA
yeah
Fr?
suuure
Bro, guys shouldn't go to GHC recruiters and girls frown on that for good reason
Amazon is hiring that much now?
I called cap too but these people got receipts man
oh ok I thoguht you meant new grad was easier. I was really confused
New grad IS easier?
yeah i agree it's like the majority of guys who pull up are not there because they wanna be an ally and watch the talks lol
if youre looking for conferences for black people i think afrotech is the big one
When is that
It’s for industry hires?
I think the majority of everyone aren't even there for the talks 
OA2? OA1 doesn't mean jack
well yes
but at least they can pretend
true
For the folk that attend these conferences, what's the success rate even like?
not sure? sorry i just know it exists and the sponsor list looks pretty nice
Bro, it’s whatever. There were multiple genders. It’s not like going to the restroom it’s just a conference …
even pretending is a bold move lmao
I heard GHC folk get insane offers
Bruh it says 9/12 - 9/16 lmao
How is the IMC phone interview for quant trader role
i meant the girls who pretend to care about the talks lol
Ik I missed it lol
i had good response rate from ghc last year, this year im kinda done recruiting so im coasting
Imma start going to conferences I think
Smh guys just be like the rest of us
Beg for referrals on blind, grind LC until you puke and spam apps until the very cusp of your mental collapse
New grad IS easier
simple stuff
do thsoe exist
I just assumed everyone is there for the job fair lmao
well yes i assume there's people who care about the progress of women in tech lol
and those who pretend to care
and the guys who show up
fair enough
theres a lot of women that attend that are securely hired in industry for some time now and just wanna network and go to talks
I just assume everyone's in it for the $$$ at the end of the day
huh ok
that's neat
Pretty sure I got that one down. I double checked with my recruiter about the format of my final round. She said:
Thanks for checking in. The OA results were reviewed and the application has moved to the interview queue which prompted my outreach for the interview prep materials 😊
The interview team will be your next point of contact and provide many more details surrounding the interview. It should be one interview spanning both technical and behavior-based questions. The prep materials sent below will provide a really nice overview of the interview experience.
Gonna ask her again
I assumed GHC was a college focused fair
what sup
nah theres mid career and early career networking events
Recruiter probably messed up
looking at the online chats there was a lot of experienced devs even for the virtual one last year
There have been folks who got 1x30
Today?
Can someone look over my answer to this question for DoorDash please? "In a few sentences, please tell us what excites you the most about the potential of working at DoorDash."
Idk if what I'm writing is good or not
ik they did in the past
Nah I meant for the 2023 new grad
Show
I bypassed the essay, applied to DoorDash with 1 click on Untapped
In my previous internships I've worked on more internal and IT-related projects as opposed to consumer and application-facing code. I've always wanted to get more involved with the consumer side of things, and I think DoorDash is perfect for that. Learning more about and applying my AWS skills is also personal goal of mine that excites me about the opportunity to work at DoorDash. I also really like the DoorDash product itself, and use it on a pretty frequent basis!
It's honestly weird to see the pseudo-caring people on LinkedIn sometimes
Blatantly virtue signalling
gg 200 ppl are gonna use the same response
What I'm trying to get at is with the nature of the hiring freeze they prob are not doing 1x30. But until I see people after me get it then ig yeah whatever
bro the people on linkedin a diff fuckin breed fr
like that crying ceo
Bro, few companies had NG OPEN, most of them told me if you want FT this season was to get intern return offer
They are gonna get rejected for plagirism
Because I copy pasted it here or what?
people memeing on it though was kind funny tho
time to use plagirisim checkers
yeah
oh yeah that guy is forever immortalized
linkedin mfers be posting about their wordly struggles at the DMV
Is my response fine tho?
I think you need to wow them more
With numbers
And measure
Tbh is hard
Describe more how you would be a good asset ?
So hopefully you’re better than people that copy paste
Are you talking to me?
Yes Colton
With numbers and measure as in like quantities from my resume?
Like I made this company $###
Measure project success
Like, your contribution, how many customers, scale of application
You want to masterpiece it
Basically "I know I suck at the thing I need to be good at to be with you guys, but I like y'all so give me a chance?
"
Tbh that's more than good enough, it's very possible they will just review resumes and reject based on that. Essay is probably there to filter out number of apps.
mine sucked too
I think I just had a template for these "Why X?" questions
In fact
As a Software Engineer, I'm on a personal mission to deliver some of the most impactful pieces of software in the future! I've always wanted to build something not just innovative but also transformative. Having our capacity to create something be inhibited by the tools that we utilize is such a shame and to see [INSERT COMPANY] revolutionize the [INSERT NICHE] industry has truly inspired and resonated with my core beliefs in creating technical solutions for a more efficient and better society. Through [INSERT COMPANY] and it's amazing collection of engineers, best practices and opportunities for growth, I'm sure that I'd be able to both grow as a developer as well as churn out products with real-world impact!
here it is lmfao
gosh, the ex-Pinterest recruiter screwed up everything.
Anyone interviewed with sentry for new grad yet?
I got the summer intern offer but couldn't work for them cuz some stupid school policies
She told me to re-apply for full-time again in the fall
and she left Pinterest
bruh what school policy?
and my application got instant reject
U go to uc school?
CPT. not really school policy, but our program policy
shit
What's wrong with your CPT?
All you need is an offer letter and to get it approved via your career center
they only provide part-time cpt cuz we still have classes in the summer
huh that's strange
can you not take summer classes?
then maybe add on 1 or 2 courses during the next 2 semesters
sucks though
that you lost on an opportunity because of something outside your control
yeh. especially everyone got phone interview with Pinterest
what school is this
UW. lol
Yeah I'd be surprised if recruiters actually read that
Bruh
I haven’t got an OA 💀💀💀💀💀
you will get one.
Oa, recruiter, technical, final for this year
not me
What’s the diff between technical and final
oh last year they didnt have technical. Ig they are doing that because raising the bar
I have a decent score and didn't get phone
Strange.. My school has part-time restriction but only for main semesters, i.e., Fall and Spring. Summers free for all
Final has 3 rounds
oh they changed it, last year it was 4. So its still 4 total interviews. thats fair
i like that
roblox treats the people they're gonna reject like crap
don't trip about it bud
you got better offers ahead no worries
Took me about the same time last year ngl
Got rejected on the final too 
fyi even a lot of interns are waiting for their decisions as well
Last year roblox took 2 weeks to reject me
took me about a month?
took me 2 days 
mfers were "Yeah lets get this skl fucker outta the way first"
2023 lot really thirsty for offers huh
We’re starving
or are y'all cracked out of your skulls?
ye i got a bit of a concussion from my cracked skull
anyone got netflix OA or interviews? I have no chance but just asking
8 lc questions
naw international though
ou
Tu est francais?
canadian huh
es*
Ahh ce n'est pas un problème frerot!
tf i already have the est there
pinterest is also ghosting me after codesignal

Taiwan it is
Whats there to do in HK I’ll be working there soon
so you speak mandarin, hindu, french AND english
wtf
yeah I think my mandarin is like that too lmfao
Alameda research
I've been to almost all of asia, but HK stood out to me
im so depressed over amazon 
for both the good and the bad
It’s only 3 day quarantine I believe
So probably getting better compared to when it was like 14 days
HK will be 0+7 soon
What’s 0+7
i got put on a waitlist
probably wont get offer cus i have a theory theyre going to stop hiring for good
yeah
No quarantine needed
But u need to take 7 days tests
bruh waitlist?
