JPM is super solid
Amazon honestly is hard to place on a tier list
Since it’s so rng
Teams vary like crazy
Apple is a cult, prove me wrong
You can’t really rate Amazon in general tho since it’s just so damn big lol
kinda facts
plus you don't have team matching
then again team matching is a good and a bad thing
That sounds pretty standard IMO
Zon is absolutely S tier for transfers
You can literally swap day 1
And your manager can’t do shit
Since all you need is other manager approval
wait fr?
Yes
you still gotta technically interview for the other manager tho right?
There was a dude who was gonna go to Seattle and swapped to a different team in austin literally his first day
Well I guess you can call it an interview
It’s more of a coffee chat
But that’s what networking is for
You meet people outside your team so you have people outside your team you can reach out to for future transfers
Does anyone even get into 2sigma without a referral?
I swear they only ghost if you dont
Huh, haven’t seen anyone get final from who I know without a referral.
Seattle has the biggest office no?
Does two sigma email to resume reject or just ghost
Yep like 60% of zon iirc
Both
Huh
Sometimes both for the same person
what was ur codesignal?
holy shit are the stats actually this?
thats crazy lol
ah you're saying for the new grad pipeline
i thought you meant for internships
yeah honestly im lucky to have zon at resume at all
im grateful i had the chance at zon
probably harder to get an internship for summer 23
fax same
I hope I can get IBM on-site 
expedia let me move my interview !!!
no longer interfering with power day 
I got referred and nothing
did they move it?
ya
what is the point of expedia telling us we can't change interview dates then?
idfk lmao
I cancelled mine cuz I had stuff going on that day and I don't really care about their offer
If I had known that I would have moved lol, oh well
do u have any offers alr
yea
papa bless 🙏


how do u get a score for codesignal ? you do practice test ?


someone has to request a test from you
or use the link in the pinned message
thanks i saw the request, btw how many times must pass to do the test again ?
i dont understand the question ..
if i do the test today 26th Sep, can i retake the test tomorrow or do they have cooldown period ?
2 weeks
Assuming you get another request
thanks man
danggg
probably a resume reject
Probably, but I have a faang and snap on my resume though 💀💀
robot reject
yeah cog exam rej then
lots of ppl fail roblox oa bc they dont take cog exam seriously
Bro if you got rejected I def didn't have a chance either 💀
WTFF
Literally same exact resume you and me
nah 840+ and 2x fang was enough for me
Yeah I just did shit on the cognitive stuff
but you probably need near-perfect on deer OA and at least 3/4 on cars
Probably I had like 3 and 1 car lol
Bro I miss working at Snap
Why stock low
I’m just ranting y’all
Please don’t base your chances off of my experience
Honestly mw2 made me happy
I really miss snap :/
sure the app is shit
but the AR stuff there
and scale was massive
💔
I would take snap in a heartbeat if they wanted me
same with Meta 😢
Although Meta is like a toxic relationship
and Snap is just things not working out fr fr
Lmaoo
did they get canned.?
😦
its okay theres other companies that want me
my snap team will live as a memory
nah just a couple people got laid off
i despise companies that do that
it's a big team and starts with a P if you know what I'm referring too
Damn they really did the PostgreSQL team dirty
whos ranking do you use in finding where your uni sits lol
The one that favors your school 
How many schools can be top25?
anyone want to attempt a scale AI OA question? I want to know if I had the best implementation
all us non top 25 should just apply
When i read that description, i just know u will be the only dev on that team, if not the only technical person on the whole floor lmao
Did anyone got circle recruiter screen? What questions did you get?
It wasn't a screen. Just a conversation about background and about Circle. And then the process
expediating isn't a word
😉
do you have a deadline or something? Or did they just randomly expedite you 😂
They randomly did , and also they used "expediate"
Hello there!
We would like to expidiate your interview process and invite you to a virtual technical interview day with Bloomberg.
Please sign up for an interview slot here:
Also expediate got used wrong so many times they're considering adding to the dict/added it to some

Also being prescriptive with language is pretty ☠️
But yes it was random
what was ur original interview date and the ones they r giving u now?
Phone I did last week Wednesday
The first VO will be this week
They said it's only an hour?
I thought it was longer
He already did phone
You'll probably have 2 VOs
1 hr each
my VO is 10/12 and i had to ask for an offer extension
it says its only an hour
i just got it too
does that mean this is a substitute for the usually 3-4 hour onsite
Cool
Nah it's probably analogous to in person
Which is 2 interviews
i had my 3-4 hour onsite scheduled for next week
after passing phone
they just sent me this instead tho
Hmm yeah first I'm hearing about this
I got the exact same email and am confused too. I sent my recruiter an email bc i was expecting two hours of interviews.
if anybody has gone through expedia's process before pls lemme know 🙏 final this weds
and it was scheduled friday, never had such a quick scheduling --> final before
Advice
anyone know where this role is for seattle? https://aurora.tech/jobs/associate-software-engineer-6238945002
i can't even find this role from the careers page but it's listed as being the NG role on the coderQuad repo
did you do the questions on the pdf they gave you and was it helpful?
they just emailed me rn saying my phone is tomorrow 8 am so im tryna figure out how to best prepare with like 4 hours lol
yeah it just describes the whole process and then has some hackerrank problems at the end
it sounds a lot like amazon's interview where they just ask some behavioral for like 10 mins and then a technical for the rest, did it feel like that to you?
Uhm pretty much
bet ty
IXL OA
Hey. Where do you guys apply for Amazon? I have a shit ton of recruiters emails so Idk if I ask one of them to apply or just submit my online app and wait for OA
mine was kinda easy
i was so unprepared but i got one OOD easy and one reg lc easy
i hope i get the same luck for VO lol
companies waitlisting people is highkey weird
just reject or hire, it ain't fucking college
But it makes sense
It’s the same idea
For big companies they can just accept whoever clears the bar
But when companies have limited headcount it’s hard for them to know their ratio of offers:accept
does anyone know what happened to the new grad salary sharing channel? Doesn't seem like there's any recent messages
mods got lazy 👀
its amazon university hiring
out of all job apps, university hiring systems feel like college apps 2.0
because the process feels more impersonal
than applying for a specific role at a specific team
any info on veeva systems
man it sure is really important to have your gun in Cod fully leveled up
i switched from m4 to the ftac recon gun
its so bad
my m4 is fully decked out
my ftac recon has nothing
is this cod chat now? 😂
nah im just monologuing about mw2
not sure if i wanna keep mw2
or refund my preorder
@chilly burrow did you get the Retool offer?
I mean offer details
Yes
Yes
someday ill be able to nolife for 10 hours a day in mw2
once i no longer am stressed abt job search
on jah
Guys anyone gave OA for Lucid??
How is the difficulty level on it? And is it just Leetcode??
guys i am struggling bad in dp
😭
how did y'all start with dp , i ain't understanding much
+1
knapsack problem
the concept is pretty simple
either you take the current item at the cost, or you skip it and use the rest of the value you have on other objects
i feel like you should start with top down dp and then build to bottom up dp
like start with questions with recursion
yeah
brute force first -> DP is good
eventually you understand the DP anyways
comikgn up with the brute force is a big part of the challenge
For brute forcing DP problems, I think the first step is offloading data/info aka memoization
Im a camper
yea i feel like dp questions are just iterations of a couple of dp problems, knapsack def the most useful to know
also top-down memo dfs is pretty good to know
grind/blind75 gives a good intro to the basic dp patterns, worth studying the questions on it that are tagged dp intensely
why would you ever preorder any games ever
haven't we learned from any game launch in the history of game launches
yeah im pulling my preorder
i dont even care about the preorder perks, if they even exist
Did Microsoft already close their 2023 new grad applications? I can't find the job posting

Anyone had an interview where you had to submit a code sample beforehand? What kind of code sample should I submit? What should it include?
A sample which prints Hello World in 7 different languages should suffice
Has anyone negotiated their Roblox offer?
Timeline please
hey guys, did anyone here give Flow Traders CodePair round - Graduate Software Role
Hey people, how many Qs are in the amazon coding assessment?
do you think I’ll pass the oa if I only got 2/3 atlassian?
When I took the intern OA there were two questions
Does anyone have a bloomberg discord link?
is it bad practice to use global variables when doing recursion?
Ermmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I don't think so
oh do you mean like
have variables on the class
like you have self.blah = something
🤔🤔🤔
nah not a class variable
just a variable outside of a recursive function
which gets changed within the recursive function
in python
res = [0]
res[0] = True
def dfs(node):
if not node:
return 0
left = dfs(node.left)
right = dfs(node.right)
if left - right > 1 or right-left > 1:
res[0] = False
return 0
return 1 + max(left,right)
dfs(root)
return res[0]```
something like this
Did anyone here do the SIG OA and move onto the next round?
IMO I’d do that but also tell the interviewer something like “doing this rn but irl id definitely think twice about it”
why would that be the case ?
Every time I get an email notification I think maybe finally RBI got back to me but no it's just another spam 😔
Google on-site
in 3 hours

also wtf Tiktok is just two back to back technicals then one behavioral -> offer???
No they don’t
good morning world!
gimme a soggy inbox today 
was it tagged?
also what on earth is the sig codesignal, two questions in 1 hour?
Got this email after my final round at uber last week 🫤
Is uber done hiring? I saw they are still giving interviews in the process chanel
lol why are you asking this when you literally got that email 😂
youd know better than any of us
they can still interview while waiting to give out offers, especially first round interviews where it may take months to finish up the cycle
im just frustrated loool
I mean I would email them back in like 2-3 weeks and see if they have update @plush coyote
every single time I get sad about my prospects I remember that I could have easily gotten a return offer if my mentor wasn't pure dogshit and he chose to consign me to this grindfest and I get ridiculously mad all over again
Yea I’ll just reply to the recruiter to be in touch. Hopefully there will be great news
so true
so true bestie
Does Bloomberg reject after HR/EM? Or does everyone who gets to the on-site at least get to this stage?
what does hm mean?
Hiring Manager?
oh
also does anyone know if roblox rejection after onsite takes faster than offer? Any known timelines for roblox rejection after onsite?
yo....
i have my fucking final today
what the hell??
WHERES MY JUICY INBOX TODAY 
Wet asf inbox 🤤
i never had one

not a single day of the 2023 season has my inbox been juicy
Yeah bro? The flu vaccine e-mail?
That’s all you bro
I do that after speedrunning the labs
Could do that during the docker compose


could someone help me with heaps please. im stuck on a super basic question

what's the q
could I dm you
sure
lmfao
what company?
probably lmfao
ugh
pain
i've only done part 1 of my application spree :(
part 2 is supposed to be today
oh here we go expedia oa
dry inbox
damn rip amzn if it actually takes months for their waitlist
I'll absolutely have accepted an offer by then lmao
i didn't expect there would be a year when amazon throws in the waitlist after having the positions posted like for 3 months LOL
brutaaaal
is there a hiring freeze for msft or are ppl getting interviews
they don't have a full hiring freeze, but a lot of orgs do
as a result, interviews are pretty sparse this year
yo how long amazon oa after application is submitted?
2-3weeks right?
pls dont say that sir
same
i mean i think amazon has a hiring freeze so probably no oa for a while
i dont think it's going to take months
but i mean
tru I probs am gonna have to give up tho since I was trying to use amzn to nego an offer I have expiring next week lmao
they're waiting on return offers, no?
soo it's big sad
it could take months cuz like there wont be too many ppl renege amazon during this brutal time
so once they get an idea of how many people are returning they'll go from there i bet
Anyone got a link for that expedia new grad app?
damn okay
rip me then
should've applied long time ago
god id feel like such a dick
nah
its k
anyone get pinterest technical yet
companies dont care when they lay off
i mean id get paid nearly twice as much
i talked to my manager after he said there's no budget for my return offer
he was like do whatever ur interested in
fck companies
maybe i should give up for amazon
🤣
no oa life
it took me three weeks from when i applied to get my OA
meh i'll just work 1 year and start applying again then market becomes better
u dont even need to LC that long for amazon 
For credit suisse, any tips for their auto oa
at this point getting into amazon is more luck than it is skill
same goes with google

fr lol id say lc 15mins before interview and ur good
It's just some cognitive stuff I believe
Reading charts and stuff. Just want to do it right to have a chance at next round
For Roblox, Is the game hard? How many people advance to next round
I talked to a credit suisse recruiter 2 weeks ago and he said that they won't even start interviewing until December lol
Oh
i dont think the game scores matter too much
u just need to get near perfect on codesignal + good resume
disagree
The game scores def matter a lot
p sure they dont
Would 841 work
i think someone moved on with a 750 lol
No way!
Nice name
I think the cognitive games matter too
Is the game hard?
i just want pinterest 
How is the OA for altassian new grad
My friend is new grad there but getting wrecked by wlb
Great money and promo opportunity tho
But they were already told they wouldnt get it even at 1yoe
Fyi
is ur friend in ml
i dont think this is necessarily true anymore
people without q4 on codesignal can pass
its probably holistic
i feel like the game probably doesnt matter that much
has anyone done the citadel new grad hackerrank
I say that bc I got 849 codesignal, had 3x FAANG on resume, and a referral from a current employee but got rejected after OA
yes it's easy
also luck
Admittedly anecdotal but still I'm pretty sure they care about the games lol
luck gets u a long way with interviews
omg rly i heard it was 2 leetcode hards
did u bomb the games?
It's all relative so it's hard to say but I didn't feel like I did great on them, especially the first one
oh hm
because they're having hiring freezes
ik roblox is pretty picky about school
When will Amazon stop freeze
mine had some dp bullshit
it was about time my luck ran out with OAs and i finally got a hard one 😂
This year I got an easy heap
Where is the Expedia new grad application
one of mine was a kth largest one but you had to do it n times
Swe
so it was n^2logn and i got TLE
yeah same. i got an lc hard and an lc med. think i got 5/15 and 10/15 :))))))))))
I can tell u for wlb the problem us new grads run into at these good companies is ur coworkers are all grinders so u get compared
i hardly understood the problem 😂 and the test cases were super unclear
I think I got that one as well
got 844 codesignal, 2 prev big N, referred by a homie whos interning at blox rn, and boom got rejected after oa.
i guess you have to do the kth largest part in o(n) to make it work
which i know is the quick select method but idk how to write that
Tbh I don’t remember but I am sure I didn’t do it in O(n)
i think the lowest you can do the whole problem is in n^2
well more like k * n
since you have to produce the subarrays from k <= i <= n
and for each subarray you need the kth largest
Is a 780 codesignal good enough for zip recruiter
not even an 849 is good enough
pointless question, we're not recruiters 😂
Ziprecruiter rejects everyone
idt i saw a single person get a zip recruiter phone
oh wow ok i stand corrected
they are probably gonna hire like one person
man this graduating season is like a bloodbath
this is much harder than other years right
Has anyone gotten an Altassian OA
not me 
wow
I also think last year was as easy as it got
If you can code quicksort, it’s about 99% the same thing.
it's basically the non-recursive part of quick sort right?
the partition?
yeah
Quick select you just go towards the index you want
kinda like binary search and quick sort
Something like that
you do still recur but for the part of the array you want
Yes
I keep telling myself i need to practice quickselect idk why but i just can’t seem to be able to code it on my own lol. Like i know instantly when a problem is quick select but i always fuck up the implementation.
The partition function is the hardest part
I definitely don’t remember how that shit works anymore lmao
Anyone whose GS application still shows "Interview Completed"? After a month since taking the OA?
But yeah any grinders in here who can implement quicksort can do quickselect with a one line change
Random pivot -> split items into less than pivot, greater than pivot, until pivot == target?
random pivot isi mportant
extremely true, or they at least project that image
feels like my team is constantly getting significant projects done at a consistent pace and people will work hard af to finish things on time even if they're not working after-hours
mine is hackerrank completed
i did the oa last week tho so idk
Yes.
google sent out a bunch of oas today
for interns
it seems like
hopefully this means they start working through the new grad apps soon
please send some for new grad
Yeah man i barely noticed like all mid and jr levels here are pushing code on weekends too sometimes
So far i have never
But i def had my share of 9-9 days
996 
dang wtf
Like once a week lol
996 based
worse lately
with all the zuck news
which company?
Meta is move fast and perf based and u do get compared, daily PRs are encouraged on many teams.
huh
But like if u are genuinely smart about it and use time well u can be balanced
so is it like amazon, but with free food and other perks
"daily PRs" including weekends 
Also the economy doesnt help, too many rumors of layoffs

my team at amazon was great
Btw i say many teams but prob not mist
looks like my uber app
Most
no one would review CRs on the weekends
or even after 6pm on weekdays
it depends on the team tho
and then cycle out people who dont fit in
no one on my team was pipped
how should you respond to questions like "what's your expected TC" during a behavioral call?
(or that i know of
)
Every big tech is toxic in diff ways. Msft healthiest but pay lowest. G is the best probably
Never give a number
G not toxic but they just got their offsites budget cut so no travel
just say that you want to know more about the position before making a decision
Travel L
"I don't have an answer for this question yet, it depends on the requirements of the position"
G is chill i heard
im doing 7 courses this sem + part time work, and im feeling hella burn out 3 weeks in KEKkk
uhhhhhh 7 courses???????
are you a robot
7 courses for a fall sem
lmao this pinterest?
don't you need some big overrides to do that at most universities
idk about credits
same for c1
im in engineering
Got to see their hq
5-6 courses is norm
yeah i got flown out to seattle for offsite
c1 hq is very beautiful
that was fun
no it's a random startup, final round
McLean is the hq right?
after working a 996 amazon internship nothing's hard anymore
yea
i mean if you have other offers rn just say salary ranges around those
did you unironically 996
asking a candidate their expected TC is so toxic
ehhhh
facts
I think it's fine at some places
like Pinterest asked me it and it was chill
since if I gave way too high of a number
no
you gotta expect them to lowball you if you ask them that question
lol
strategy: high ball them first
true
that's how you get your interview thrown out lmaooo
60/hour
its very toxic
If you give too high, they reject you, if it's too low they lowball you and you can't really negotiate because that's what you said you wanted
there's no winning
if I gave too high of a number to pinterest I absolutely would've got my interview process thrown out
lol
not necessarily, easier to negotiate for more after you have an offer than before
ask them what other interviewees are asking for
technically it doesn't matter what their asking for anyway
They're not going to give that away
when i said that they said they were "legally not allowed to say that" lmfao
you gotta know your worth
makes sense lmao
no way are they gonna give you info of other interviewees
I then asked for the budget for the role and they said the same thing
at bloomberg you losers
oh yeah @gray niche have you gotten your offer yet
or nah
for roblox
oh pog you got offer
when'd you get it?
uhhh last friday
nice nice
why is my text red
im waiting to hear back from netflix to accept but that netflix final was so difficult
out of curiosity when you got offer, did you get an email from your recruiter to schedule the call?
for bb? wth
or was it from diff person
yes
oh nvm it didn't send
no roblox
ohh
is your recruiter initials jj out of curiosity
no
oh ok
rip
since idk who'll email me my offer decision since my recruiter is on vacation this week

dang return kinda cracked
I think someone from hr will fill in, the reason they schedule a call is because the offer is like a big roblox presentation type thing lol
huhhhh interesting
I'm really praying I get the call this week so I can know
I'm genuinely a 50 50 on if I get an offer or a reject
Yup I noticed a couple of our staff engs push code on weekends though I honestly think they're just doing it cause they want to because I never sense time pressure that severe coming from management
I've had a couple 9-9 days too but thankfully its just been like 3 days to get big projects across the finish line before a deadline
I ended up emailing the person who manages Process Updates for Roblox to see if who I'll get offer news from
also that was only necessary cause I didn't manage my time that well prior lol
rip, my companys gotten us a week-long work celebration in a couple weeks and they chartered a boat party for my org in the bay area 
just thought it was bloomberg because they are known for ghosting their interviews lol
they will most likely ask you to reschedule
basically a week-long field trip lol
send recruiter email now, and wait for around 5 more minutes
I cancelled my bloomberg interview 🤣 they were taking too long
Nice
getting nothing past OA 😭
I think bb process has become bad because too many people applied and overloaded pipeline lmao
I did bb process a few months ago and it was chill
my recruiter said there were still more rounds after my VO so I just sent this
then she cold called me and said she would let me skip the other rounds
but I already scheduled netflix for that day so i said no
good luck with netflix bro they're fucking nuts
hardest LC question I've ever been asked in an interview no contest
How are ng questions this cycle compared to last year? harder?
that final was impossible
would be shocked to hear good news
my phone was a LC Hard basically duct-taped to a LC Med on the harder side, optimal sol would've been around 150 lines
absolutely ridiculous I'm still salty
Care to elaborate on the problem type?
anyone know if bb interviews make you compile
Why was it hard in your opinion?
it was a problem sort of like Expression Add Operators + Basic Calc 2
Lmao ik someone else who got that Netflix question too
Except it was balanced parenthesis or smthing
this is genius
somewhat diff from those 2 probs but fairly similar
optimal solution's time complexity was (4^n * n^3)
banana had me reverse a string last year
LC hards in live interviews are usually more thinkers and discussions than actual optimal solving. The idea is to stretch your limits enough to see your thought process for real, unlike in the case of an easy problem, where you'd do it without really thinking
At least that's what I've heard
So, even a seemingly bad interview, can be a good one. The interviewer just has to like the way you think
@uncut epoch did they make u compile that code just curious
I was actually asked 2sum once
as the only leetcode question throughout the interview process too lol
has anyone interviewed with google for their apm role?
should i email recruiter if i haven’t heard back from bb phone yet
or do i just wait
can I dm you?
Print all nodes of a binary tree
when will more 2023 new grad positions open 
Never 😭
until last week i could see microsoft new grad apps open
now they took it down when i checked today 😦
fk i missed out on it 😭 FML FUCC
bloomberg in 15 min🙏
Wtf, where was tihs
Its a thing in the past now brother, dont stress
it was a boomer tech company that's all I'll say
Anyone have advice for prepping for pinterest onsite? Looks like they only have 33 questions on LC with 5 in the last 6 months
Honestly MS is doing very little non returner new grads, so even if you dod apply, there isnt much chance you get an interview
TC offer was 102k from them too 
damn this is prob why I never got a response
Does anyone have ddog final rounds scheduled ?
Wtf thats nice
cia came to my career fair 
They ask med to hards 
Complain complain and complain, say you wasted important exam for this, bla bla be a karen and theyll give u easy questions
I was aghast that all I really needed to get a 6fig salary was know fucking 2sum, but I would've hated working there since the company culture and work area was not for me. It was on proprietary backend stuff for an OS too
Oh ok, i see - could be a good company to work for if u wanna chill i guess xd
yeah def I got the impression I prob could've skated by there lol
working at two companies remote is a infinite moeny glitch
Yea
Or Bad interview experience
I'm happy af that I got to work somewhere really good on my fave niche instead (mobile/iOS)
nvm the interview didnt happen xd
You already did the tech screen interview?
How was it
Yeeee
Add line break from the 2nd sentence ( I was looking forward... )
Yeah it's well written, good luck!
good luck bro
Does imc call to reject?
bloomberg interviewer no show. how long do I wait
^ is this for final or phone
phone
damn no way they r intentionally ghosting maybe it's the same interviewer
ya i have my vo on wednesday
No I misspoke should've just said phone. I just had the recruiter call that went really well. Waiting to schedule tech phone screen
RIP
BB is a shit show this new grad cycle
when was ur interview supposed to be and whend u email
my recruiter has already ghosted me when I sent a 'what to expect' email. rip
ohhh kk i think theyll definitely respond bro if they were to ghost ppl w phones i think theyd prolly email u guys instead of not cancelling the interview
Same thing happened to me twice. Recruiter got back to me later that day both times
anyone get kensho oa? not sure what to expect
twice!!?
Does your recruiter’s email start with AA? I’ve sent 2 follow up emails and never heard back lmao
yes lol then they said they were skipping the phone screen bc they fucked up twice which I was kinda stoked for but then when I scheduled the interview for the "onsite" it's only 1 hour so I'm pretty sure it's just the phone screen. I emailed my recruiter but haven't heard back yet lol. Such a mess
yes
yeahhh RIP 🙃🙃
anyone have BBs general recruiting email?
Their process seems so messy this year
O we're in the same spot then lmao
Does bloomberg expedite if we have upcoming deadlines
I saw someones post in this discord where their entire process was sub 2 weeks so I'm pretty sure they do but I don't know that persons situation
Even my email after the two canceled phones says expedited interview
wow circle is the 1st company to actually respect my school's offer deadline policy
big respect to them
How many days after taking the IMC OA, do we get the hirevue?
I got mine after 1 day
I got phone after 6 days of hirevue
Nice!
How was it? Did you proceed to next round?
I haven't done the phone yet
Ok.
@grizzled bronze is that full time SWE opportunity legit? i see one closed
Yeah one closed, but this one is open
It's on Microsoft's site so it's legit
thanks a ton
I remember one of the listings was for fully remote
but what's the difference idk
Just apply and forget about it unless you hear back
yeah
i was waiting for a referral and until the referral person got back VMware new grad was taken down
😭
then i was like i could have applied myself instead of losing out on it
Guys i need an advice does referral matter a lot? I mean it does take time to reach out and ask for a referral . i missed out on 2-3 companies just coz i waited for the referral
i got stuck on a LC problem last night right before bed and when i went to sleep all i dreamed about were potential solutions 😭
woke up, tried one of them and it worked
happens to me too @azure zephyr
i was once solved 3-4 mediums in one go
on one random day came back to those same mediums
couldn't solve them properly
😦
guys how come I don't get interviews from places I got interviews from last year
Microsoft has said referral doesn't matter for interns/new grads and some other companies did too
like last year i got netflix OA for intern almost instantly but this year i been ghoested???
Intern vs new grad is different
but if the policy is auto OA after applying?
coding prolly
why its different
dreaming about code has happened to me since i started CS but its so weird bc how can i not solve it directly, but then my subconscious figures it out 😂
Think about it
interns

has anybody here had interviews with OOD included? what was it like?
are you basically just designing the class diagram?
Are they hiring at all?
honestly i got the OA from VMware, did well and they completely ghosted me lol
I don’t think anyone has heard back from VMware
I got rejected from propel but launch has been dead silent seems like
Nope
Hi Netflix candidates: when did you receive Netflix Airtable email with "Our goal is to reach out to candidates who are chosen for initial next steps within the next two to three weeks. If you haven’t heard from us by then, we may have reached interview capacity."? I'm wondering when was the "2~3 weeks" started to count. (I applied very late and received this email on 9/15 and haven't heard back anything)
My recruiter said they’re supposed to open applications again next month
So people who have applied before will they still be in queue?
🤷🏻♂️
Uber NG freeze, Amazon NG freeze, Meta no NG, Google doesn't process any first-time NG app, Linkedin No NG, Microsoft NG freeze. 
No return offer
Wdym people gotten OAs
going through hell this season to get 0 offers
A friend did the final for google last week
whether or not i get a return offer keeps getting pushed back, now theyre saying mid oct, and i didnt even intern at a tech company lmao
hurry tf up my god
Google only process those who applied/interviewed before this fall recruiting right?
You mean the people who applied in august == Fall right
yeah nothing like "2-3 weeks after internship end" to "oh yeah you have to do a conversion interview" and then "ok wait another months pls"
Yeah there’s been several OAs and interviews already for google then for this season
Oh I heard that Google hasn't processed any first-time application yet.
I was thinking of complaining about my return offer but hell no I will just take it
Lol what company is this
somewhat true
they're processing ones with recruiter help who are first times
🤷
Msft is still frozen too?
They have Atlanta NG open I think
for the most part, or atleast very reduced
Well they ain’t hiring me 😞
i am praying things fall in place by Q1 2023 😭 📿
anyone do optiver technical phone?
rn i am just grinding with anxiety
The 40 pms they hire in total yeah
they wont lol
its gonna be like this for a long time
tech companies overhired in covid, now they need to correct
it'll be a long time before its "stable", and it'll probably never be as easy to get a ng job as it was in the last couple years ever again
Don’t say that bro
okay then
Make me depressed and stuff
it easy for you to write lol lmao etc when people here are already anxious
i dont have an offer either bro
im in the same boat
i feel the anxiety just as much as you
was just saying , i hope everyone here gets something 
hope our grind and hardwork gives the fruit we deserve
Sounds like IBM
Agreed
never give up
as a non us grad this scares me but i will keep working hard . i believe hardwork never fails
its all about the growth mindset
there's only wins & learning opportunities
no failures
2 Ls make a W
Yall are so sweet!
Yeah, I really feel bad for the international students. It's bad this year, but after applying I realize just how few companies in general sponsor visas. Hope y'all land something amazing.

Thank you as an international student

Yeah I know...Since I came to the US I haven't seen my families for almost 4 years (part of because of Covid) And I really want to get a good offer so that I can happily inviting my parents to visit me for my graduation.
by the time the market recovers none of us in here will qualify for newgrad roles :p
bing chilling
There is also a terrible recession in my home country. It is also difficult for us to find a job there.
I def feel you 😭 we are only allowed to be unemployed for 90 days after graduation I really want to get a job and stay
2020 was better because many internationals finally got good jobs in their home country.
akuna increased TC to 250 😳


Many companies outside MAANG or big tech don’t sponsor international students though
I'm just applying to everything
ive only seen like 2-3 out of like 100+ apps ive done that had an problem with international students
but maybe i dont understand the process when you are one, and if it changes
I feel like most companies won’t outright reject you but it’s way more difficult since you are compared to a non intl student and most of the times they don’t consider the overhead of sponsoring an intl worth it unless you are a really great candidate
I feel like I got rejected after initial recruiter calls for a few companies for that reason is that they probably found someone similar who didn’t require sponsorship and would rather hire them
So I have submitted nearly 300 apps, including a lot of small local companies😂
i wonder if the h1b thing is from the trump era
i remember him making it harder to get a visa
I don't think I've seen a single Fortune 50-ish that isn't in tech sponsor visa
if you select that you need sponsorship at some point in the future on a job application u almost always get rejected.
even when they offer sponsorship most times they wud rather hire someone who they dont have to spend the resources to sponsor
Hey I have my final this friday, any chance you can share what the hardest part about the interview was?
it was my first sys design interview so I had a really hard time with that
I'm p decent at leetcode so that part wasn't as difficult so just make sure you really understand sys design
Thanks for sharing! Wish you all the best 😄
afaik JPMC doesn't sponsor for entry level SWE roles
Hey I am starting applications for new grad at big tech (MAANG and others) this week with a good cv and referrals. Usually what is the delay between application and first assessment/interview?
Depends
oof just got informed I didn't make it Google Product Area matching sigh
Hahahahah but realistically, is it within a week? 2 week? 1 month?
yup
Has anyone done rippling oa?
we're in a recession lmfao
Ok thanks for the info
yeah we've already had 2 quarters of negative growth lol by any metric we're already in it
well meh? it's a very funny recession with good employment numbers and rampant inflation
sure don't feel like a recession
least not a normal one
very true as well, the low unemployment makes this a very unique one
seems like the intention of the fed is to get unemployment up at any cost to reduce inflation
I feel like it’s just speculation and companies are reducing hiring massively and they’re going to end up having a hiring spree in the future (at least that’s my thought smoking hopium)
even if it means deliberately slowing down the economy

at least for tech it's speculation but I don't think macro will be rosy either so I don't think hiring spree is accurate
does the karat interviewer move you forward even if you gave a wrong answer? for palantir if that matters
yeah tech will weather the storm better than most industries but no one knows exactly how its going to shake out
tech slowing hiring to a crawl is technically better than like, retail laying off massive portions of their workforce for example
shits fucked, fed seemingly has only one button to push to get inflation to stop, that being "crush labor power by tanking the economy "
but hows that going to work out when there's literally a 1mil + gaping hole in the labor force from covid deaths. Like I don't see how they can force the unemployment rate to get worse when we're pretty much as close to full employment as we can be out of sheer necessity
unemployment getting worse = key industries begin to fail
Like there are literally so many jobs too
Companies are still begging for workers right now
for the people doing codesignal glitch, do you guys use your real name in the alt email accounts
