2023_grads

[weak latch]

then 3 questions all building on each other

for the next 45 minutes

LC easy -> LC medium -> LC harder medium or hard

i did the palantir karat twice and both times had some type of dfs

[teal jackal]

i see

i heard that the pass rate is arbitrary for it

im honestly nervous bout this one

[weak latch]

i think you'll pass by solving 2 of the questions

assuming you get all the algo ones pretty good

[night magnet]

did you get all testcases for the api call

for some reason I could only get 10/12

but yeah the rest was free

[teal jackal]

so its 3 algo questions

but all 3 problems are related

[old smelt]

did you encode the response? i had unicode chars which I had to fix

[teal jackal]

i see

[night magnet]

oh dang that was prob the issue

no i didnt

rip

hopefuly 10/12 is enough

[floral plank]

I was close for the api call question I don’t even know how many test cases I passed

[uneven grove]

bruh what was that mckinsey OA

[smoky lodge]

anyone else feel like 2023 hiring is already over

[autumn ridge]

feels like apps are slowing way down but starting to hear back a lot more

[severe pendant]

All I got is straight rejections

[vital meteor]

yes, pack it up and try again next year

[teal jackal]

Tbh, first wave of gigatryhards has concluded

Second wave of interviews coming

[violet badger]

I had an internship at bigtech this year and didn't get a return offer. Almost all other interns did. Feels like I am not getting any good opportunity again

[teal jackal]

Feels

[autumn ridge]

I wouldn't be hard on yourself so many things out of your control can go wrong during an internship to make the return offer not go your way

[violet badger]

Yeah but what's next? Hardly getting callbacks even with a good internship on the resume now

[shrewd pelican]

anyone got TuSimple VO?

[radiant juniper]

same :((((((

[smoky lodge]

anyone have resources to specifically prepare for code signal

[prime palm]

Most of Facebook didn't

[weak latch]

i feel you bro, you and me literally the same boat

[prime palm]

6 of my friends at Amazon didn't

2 of my friends at Microsoft didn't

I didn't get a return at fb

It's ok fam

In 2 years youll look back and say

I'm glad I didn't get a return

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[weak latch]

that's all good to say but the reality is applying is getting nowhere rn

[prime palm]

Not true

[weak latch]

i've sent out a lot of apps to no avail

[severe pendant]

Wait I thought stripe has pretty high return offer rate?

[weak latch]

its already basically october and i haven't even done 1 final yet

[prime palm]

Not this year

[severe pendant]

I see… thx for the info. What about Amazon. ? How’s their return offer rate this year. I just knew one of my classmates got it

[prime palm]

Not as high as it was

They're waitlisting new grads rn in both USA and Xanadu

Canada

[weak latch]

its high, but slightly lower than previously

[prime palm]

^

[weak latch]

but mostly the same

me who didn't get amazon return: 😢

can't even blame the company im just a dumbass

[severe pendant]

Wdym. I didn’t even get in lmao

[prime palm]

I didn't get a return from Amazon last summer

[weak latch]

if google will respond to my oa 🙏 🙏

[prime palm]

This summer didn't get a return from Facebook

[weak latch]

i sent them a perfect oa cmon bruv, responddddd

[prime palm]

I'm down 0-2

Bro

🤣

[weak latch]

better faster stronger

the waitlisting is the reason its harder

[prime palm]

My friend passed OA and had a 1x30 interview lol

And got an offer

[weak latch]

way too competitive, too many apps not enough spots

[prime palm]

Amazon external isn't that bad

[severe pendant]

When is day 1

[prime palm]

Mfw no Amazon oa

[weak latch]

its always day 1 at amazon

😉

that's what they tell you on ur first day in training lol

[dawn sequoia]

🚩

[weak latch]

bro don't say that 😭

im smoking that google hopium pack

[severe pendant]

I guess I applied too late. All I got is a survey on application process lmao.

[weak latch]

[azure zephyr]

[normal palm]

[outer radish]

Keep an eye out on our careers site (careers.google.com) for future opportunities. We always encourage you to apply again in the future.

I got the same intern email reach out earlier this year and this response when I asked m,y recruiter about new grad at google

[grizzled bronze]

Their recruiters are chilling, Microsoft WLB

[weak latch]

broooo i would've said

Hey <recruiter>
Thank you for reaching out! I'm very interested in a career at Google, and I believe that my experiences at <> will apply very well to the products and culture at Google. However, I would like to call out that I am currently seeking full-time early career roles since I'm graduating very soon. I'd love the chance to interview with google and discuss the roles and culture at Google further with you, so please let me know if you think I'd be a good fit for an Early Career role at Google!

Thanks,
<Your Name>

[weak latch]

bruh 😬

[sudden sequoia]

anyone hear back amazon today?

[outer radish]

bro this is so MUCH better than how i worded mine

[sudden sequoia]

got waitlisted lol

[outer radish]

I basically said just finished my last internhip at ZON GIMME NEW GRAD PLs

[weak latch]

a friend of mine got a similar email in like may ish

[outer radish]

yeah mine is along the same lines, but I ghosted my recruiter and ghosted the rescheduled OA cause it was in anotehr email i dont check

actually fumbled the bag so hard on that one

[sudden sequoia]

oooffff that’s so unlucky damnn

[ancient holly]

can we apply for amazon intern && ng positions at the same time?

has anyone done it before?

[prime palm]

Nope

Yes I tried

They told me to kill myself

[pulsar mural]

[outer radish]

if you get the NG rejection, you can immediately apply for intern after

[ancient holly]

ng isn't moving

[outer radish]

rescind ur app and extend ur grad date if u want ZON on ur resume then

[ancient holly]

they're not giving out oa even

[grizzled bronze]

Can't, they go off your graduation date

[ancient holly]

so intern and ng don't share freeze period?

[outer radish]

tbh idk bout the freeze period, but most companies are still actively hiring interns

[grizzled bronze]

What's up, why're you sad

[outer radish]

and last year i got a fat NG rejection but got the intern OA/interview

[hasty birch]

What company is this lol

[sudden sequoia]

^

[polar moat]

It was same for me.. they rejected in a minute, I applied from a new email with the same resume, still no response

but no rejection though

that pretty much sums up more than half of my applications

[sudden sequoia]

LMFAOOOOO

that acc made me laugh lmfao

[radiant juniper]

how long did it take ppl to get the netflix OA?

[weak latch]

what company is this

[sudden sequoia]

pinterest

[shrewd sparrow]

a little over a week after applying for me

[sudden depot]

has anyone done the personality quiz for expedia?

[vernal prism]

Got inside info that rippling hiring freeze announced

Don’t know how much it impacts new grads or interns

[earnest warren]

chinnychenchen asks: Do you have a full-time offer yet? Yes vs. No

[lilac siren]

where is my netflix oa

applied on 8/23

[eternal mortar]

assuming y'all get multiple offers, are y'all gonna wait to reneg* them until pretty close to your start date(with ur chosen company)? Like in case offers are rescinded

[loud olive]

u mean reneg?

[eternal mortar]

oop yea

[loud olive]

good question, I've been wondering the same thing lol

[nocturne oriole]

Honestly in light of this economy, prob a smart move

I mean i wouldnt feel right taking a bunch of offers and also u must accept u burn bridges with this method

But if it’s a shaky company then yeah keep as backup

Look at the Snap kids

[foggy perch]

Strats probs more like wccept 2

Ez

[eternal mortar]

yea I'm thinking of keeping just 1 as backup, no need to blacklist myself from more than 1 company

[autumn ridge]

That's such a gigabrain move

[earnest warren]

chrispy asks: NYC or SF

[low scroll]

which one is what

[night magnet]

Planning on doing this with my top 2 choices

Basically a necessity in this economy

[gray niche]

yeah personally would only do it with 2 offers which is amzn, blox because i feel like once i renege amzn i still wouldnt be blacklisted lol

[mellow path]

Did anyone go through Scale or Netflix first round? What was the process like? I have them next week.

[teal jackal]

corporation moment

[lethal turret]

is ebay oa automatic?

[prime palm]

anyone do IMC recruiter call (after the one-way video round)? is it purely behavioural?

[loud olive]

friend who works at rippling said the hiring freeze is for this year, new grad is next year so should be fine

[austere grove]

Not if economic conditions get wors

(Which they will)

Another day without a job

[crude saffron]

What happened to js

[lone rapids]

When did they reach out after video interview

[prime palm]

like 2 days after

[lone rapids]

When did u take ur video interview?

[split plaza]

same

also 8/23

[loud olive]

I mean u can say that about any other company haha just got keep a positive mindset

[rain patio]

never give up

u dnt even have to keep a positive mindset. Just be neutral

[winter loom]

does anybody know what to expect for bloomberg EM round?

[prime palm]

2 weeks ago maybe

[thick cave]

hello, for those that took SIG's OA, how soon did you hear back?

[lusty field]

Who thinks I will get Pinterest next steps with 730 CodeSignal?

I don't

[late kestrel]

more than likely just a deep dive into a project, potentially some sys design questions about it, and another "why bb"

and more behav qs ofc

[exotic lintel]

LinkedIn website is the only where nerds ghost beautiful girls

[fossil jewel]

or girls ghost nerds who think its a dating platform

[exotic lintel]

it can be

[rigid crown]

Anyone got IBM contact for new grad ?

[exotic lintel]

just put prestigious job title like "VP at Apple Music"

[rigid crown]

They misled me telling me I have 5 days to do the OA when it had expired lol

[prime palm]

Logistical?

[austere grove]

uh

we knnow economic conditions will get worse

it's been telegraphed by the federal reserve

no jobs for a year maybe basically

[woven tide]

Anyone else going to the super weekend in NYC for Broadway Tech?

[outer radish]

bro you finna act like everyone boutta be jobless

great depression 2023

[austere grove]

i mean..

[outer radish]

just sayin if costco keeping the hot dog at 1.50

then im making 150k in 2023

[austere grove]

look up loss leaders

[outer radish]

then imma work at costco

great benefits no cap

[austere grove]

yeah same

thinking about applying to costco

[outer radish]

yeah just freelance on the side

[smoky lodge]

A year? The fed thinks it’s gonna keep interest rates high to 2025 lmfao

[outer radish]

bro please

[austere grove]

they'll peak next year

[smoky lodge]

[austere grove]

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/09/27/feds-evans-nervous-about-going-too-far-too-fast-with-rate-hikes.html

[smoky lodge]

He’s coping too

[austere grove]

he plays a role in making the decisions

it cant be cope

hopium: feds are really bad at predicting the future

even if they say they'll be hawkish in 2023 odds are htey wont

also feds dont lie

[outer radish]

yeah but if they dont pump the breaks on inflation now

[austere grove]

typically they are pretty straightforward

[austere grove]

if they see it slow down they wont hike rates as hard

[outer radish]

then the next rate hike is going to be a brutal fall off a cliff for the economy

[austere grove]

i suspect ifnlation will subside sooner than they expect cuz all asset classes have crashed by now basically

[weak latch]

ugh

[outer radish]

idk man inflation reporting is still super high

[weak latch]

this fuckin hurricane keeps shifting to be more and more on top of my city lmfao

[outer radish]

even after the initial rate hikes they did earlier on in the year

[weak latch]

its projected to pwn my city 😂

[austere grove]

yeah cuz of oil shock

but oil has gone down

and inflation is lagging

it happened af ew months after oil spiked up but now it's down

[outer radish]

then why would they announce an additional rate hike after this one by the end of the year

[weak latch]

yeah

it just keeps inching to the right lol

it'll prolly only be a cat 1 or 2 so not too bad

or even a tropical storm that's just an afternoon storm

that would be fantastic

[teal jackal]

WTF
WHY WASNT I EVER TOLD THAT THE FOREACH LOOP IN C++ CREATES COPIES RATHER THAN USE THE ORIGINAL REFERENCE
I WASTED SO MUCH TIME TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE MUTATIONS ON THE ATTRIBUTES OF MY GAME ENGINE MODELS WERENT WORKING

[indigo raft]

wait if u have unproctored and proctored requests on codesignal, you can't just take the unproctored ones by themselves?

[rain patio]

Thats y i hate c++

[foggy perch]

amazon interns are just the easiest of faang tbh

[teal jackal]

meta interviews are genuinely kinda hard

[vernal prism]

Banana when did u do rippling OA

[teal jackal]

tbh amazon for many people is just a fluke

for me

for example

[vernal prism]

Lmao banana spitting facts

[teal jackal]

[teal jackal]

Where

Oh I'm illiterate

[loud olive]

Damn Fred again pulled out of 2nd sky

[teal jackal]

Spotify isn't a big company, they probably don't have the resources to do university hiring for new grads

[vague kraken]

fuck man we're all gonna make it we just gotta get past new grad

[teal jackal]

Instead you have to fight with people with YoE

O

Damn

Spotify is just stingy towards new grads then

"fuck u lmao"

It's also immediate fill

[weak latch]

i just want discord to do new grad

please

discord is top 2 dream companies

[teal jackal]

I wanna work at valve someday

[vague kraken]

anybody else feeling the urge to build our own shit

I mean look at what we go through to get jobs

[teal jackal]

I think I'm gonna apply to valve for one of the companies I wanna hop to as an SE2

Valve is one of my dreams

Discord is lit too

[crude oxide]

You got a chanc

[alpine matrix]

Is Bloomberg rejecting new apps?

[vernal prism]

Possibly

Heard it might be full too lmao

some bs

[alpine matrix]

F. Massive F. Last bastion falls.

[vernal prism]

Aight friends

Let’s do a startup

Get funding from a16z

Doable

if no one giving us jobs

We CREATE jobs

[autumn ridge]

I feel like doing a startup out of undergrad is a bad idea.

[foggy perch]

just don't fail 4head

[autumn ridge]

lol

[vernal prism]

Dwag what else choice do we have

[vague kraken]

Dude that's what I'm saying. All this grind to make a few hundred K a year building and maintaining things that make millions and millions.

[vernal prism]

Exactly

[night magnet]

Ong

Can’t wait to escape the machine

[vital meteor]

trueeeee im quitting tomorrow and building my own AWS

[night magnet]

Will it be hosted on AWS

[vital meteor]

depends if the youtube tutorial im following uses it

[night magnet]

Valid

[vague kraken]

It doesn't have to be anything crazy innovative. Even something like algoexpert prints $$$.

way more than any TC ever could

[vernal prism]

Facts

[autumn ridge]

Theirs a lot of companies with similar products to algo expert. Also i don’t think they would be as big as they are if Clemente did have a big tech fluencer channel. He could make multiple 6 figures just off YouTube.

CPM for tech channels is crazy

[vital meteor]

yep these people already have an audience

if i make notJohnExpert no ones gonna sub to that

[low scroll]

I will sub to that

[vague kraken]

Ok maybe not the best example. Here's another. I've got family in the plumbing business. They use this company to manage all the trucks and stuff. https://www.servicetitan.com

This company does over 200M a year in revenue to help people run plumbing/ac businesses

[compact sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-fabian-howard-hamlin-howie-better-call-saul-bcs-gif-26720577

[low scroll]

yeah the goal is to have my business

[vague kraken]

There's all kinds of problems out there we could solve and make tons of $$$ without being particularly innovative

[low scroll]

for me, the point of getting tech job out of grad is to get that initial capital to make business easier

but who knows, if I'm unemployed, ima see it as a blessing in disguise

[vital meteor]

imagine an app like tinder but girls automatically swipe right

[foggy perch]

nah for me the amount of effort it'd take to make a business ain't w orth it

[vague kraken]

Yeah dude we're being paid to learn how to build shit. We should build our own shit.

[foggy perch]

I'd rather just get money and retire early

[low scroll]

bro smitty

weren't you the one wanting to maximize tc

[foggy perch]

I maximize expected tc

the probability of me making an incredible startup that IPOs

is very low

[vague kraken]

yeah boys earning mid 6 figs and buying SPY and VOO is fuckin lame

[low scroll]

you dont have to make the next google

[foggy perch]

the probability of me making High 6-figs in Tech by tryharding interviews = high

[low scroll]

just some random 1 person product

sell that and coast

[foggy perch]

nahh

[vague kraken]

but probability of making low 7 figs is almost 0

[foggy perch]

the probability of failure is very low

[foggy perch]

I'm just in it to earn the maximum expected TC

[low scroll]

@vague kraken we gon make it 7 figs bro

[foggy perch]

500k * 10% is much better to me than 1 mil * .00001%

[smoky lodge]

where are people finding ebay new grad stuff

[vital meteor]

he did the math

[vague kraken]

I'm with you brother. 🚀

[low scroll]

they gonna look at us

and call us lucky

soon

[trail leaf]

Uber interview tmrw, do they do hard LC only?

[vague kraken]

Hell yeah dude. We build and maintain these huge systems that make tons of $$$ for these companies. Soon we will build our own.

[vernal prism]

rainInTheSun speaking absolute facts

[smoky lodge]

anyone have codesignal prep resources?

[floral plank]

Just do practice codesignal

And just keep on doing them

[quick wraith]

on a different account

so you can get the same question on your main

[foggy perch]

gotta make sure to use a vpn or something tho since codesignal tracks ip i believe

since ik someone who got banned for a few weeks for making multi acc

[quick wraith]

will keep in mind

[grizzled bronze]

lol

[smoky lodge]

But I don’t need to practice Q1 and Q2

Or honestly even Q3

[serene fable]

Why hasn't someone made a codesignal q4 question pool yet

[smoky lodge]

I just need to not get TLEs on question 4 and then I’m fine

[dawn lynx]

How was the Google APM first round interview?

[craggy radish]

it's just leetcode, usually with a hashmap

[serene fable]

Yeah but what patterns

[craggy radish]

^ their kinda white paper tells you

[dawn lynx]

Goldman Sachs HackaRank anyone? tips?

[serene fable]

I saw the white paper, it kinda helps but it's still difficult to find specific leetcode problems to help train in optimizing, though I may not be looking in the right place

[dawn lynx]

Google apm interview

[serene fable]

Like, this isn't something the blind 75 seems to go over very much

[hasty birch]

Study prefix sum

[dusty halo]

Anyone heard back after morgan stanley's hirevue?

[smoky lodge]

Like I’ve gotten q1-3 on codesignal and that was high 700s, but I seems like you can’t actually get 800+ without Q4 which is dumb

[serene fable]

Same

[smoky lodge]

Apparently just getting Q4 will also give you high 700s

So literally just doing Q4 is as good as doing 1-3 and not Q4

Which is dumb

[marble bronze]

Get lucky

[smoky lodge]

Society if I could get an 800+ code signal score

[loud olive]

Y’all ever get reached out by huawei recruiters lol

[fervent fern]

why bother reaching people when you can just reach their personal data?

jkjk

[chilly burrow]

imagine getting a phone notif 💀

[dusky ledge]

How long did it take you guys to get capital one offer letter? I got my call last wed.

[late kestrel]

[frozen tapir]

[uneven grove]

you don't need to give the most optimal solution for the coding ones

[clever orbit]

[lunar badger]

[lunar badger]

Different

[slender apex]

Yo congrats homie, could I dm u abt the process?

[buoyant fable]

[shell fern]

[lunar hatch]

[jaunty snow]

Has anyone else heard back from zoom? Applied first day and haven’t heard anything

[jaunty snow]

When I did it, they did take the hour for me, I think only behavioral I finished early

[grizzled bronze]

Did you double check if you left your application muted

[buoyant fable]

ah ty, my behavioral is my last actually so thats good

[jaunty snow]

On portal it just says app received

Not sure about mute status tho, wdym?

[grizzled bronze]

Zoom joke

[jaunty snow]

Bruh I’m so in my head lmao

[weak latch]

[grizzled bronze]

Oh that sounds like they're just backed up then, I wouldn't count yourself out yet

Last year they did interviews into April

[late kestrel]

why do so many ppl have theirs this afternoon lol

[tardy geode]

[floral plank]

I was talking about recruiter phone lol

[tardy geode]

[wet coral]

[shy dock]

how long does it take bloomberg to get back to u after onsite?

[gray niche]

omfg

[uncut umbra]

has anyone gone through the datadog process after the phone?

[gray niche]

omgomgomg

i got the netflix offer

[shy dock]

ayeeeee

[grizzled bronze]

Congrats!

[wet coral]

TC?

[gray niche]

verbal

[wet coral]

Congrats!

[weak latch]

SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH

BIG FUCKIN W

[calm shale]

bless our peasant eyes with ur tc when u get it

[weak latch]

netflix still ghosted me

[uneven grove]

bb phone in 15. praying I don't get ghosted

[ruby plover]

expedia final in 15 mins 🙏

[tulip glade]

I don't think so

they probably aren't even close lol

[runic wind]

Did they tell you the org

[wet coral]

hmm i hope note

[tulip glade]

I saw a recruiter posting about their intern/ng stuff yesterday

on linkedin

[wet coral]

need an offer from them asap

[tulip glade]

I don't see why they'd do that if they're almost full

have u done final?

[wet coral]

that makes sense

yes

[tulip glade]

yeah i'd say you're chilling lol

[sour night]

How far does Bloomberg push for those that had competitive offers?

[tulip glade]

my friend has interview scheduled for late oct

[wet coral]

yea, but i heave heard that its kinda rng

[gray niche]

no they didn't give me any of tht information just info about start dates and that they will schedule another call to discuss TC

im shocked rn actually I feel like I did really bad on sys design so maybe they don't hold that as high as they do behavioral and technical

[neat shore]

Is Expedia still hiring. I thought they just opened their app

[autumn ridge]

Fucking bloomberg dude. My interviewer was trying to argue with me that first my BFS implementation was wrong when it wasn't and second that you aren't guaranteed the shortest path from start to end with a BFS search

[winter loom]

On site?

Bb interviewers capped my friend before too

[autumn ridge]

yeah

[vague kraken]

weighted or unweighted

[autumn ridge]

unweighted

[vague kraken]

shortest path using bfs on unweighted isn't guaranteed?

[crystal delta]

? what's the situation where you don't get shortest path?

[autumn ridge]

unweighted directed graph from start to end

[neat shore]

I heard BB asks LC DP hard on onsite

[compact sundial]

yes

word break ii

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-fabian-howard-hamlin-howie-better-call-saul-bcs-gif-26720577

[vague kraken]

idk what I'm smoking but I thought that bfs would still work for unweighted directed graph

[neat shore]

What does BB ask in the hiring mannger round after onsite

[crystal delta]

^

[uncut umbra]

me: I'm looking for full time roles in software engineering and technical development
wayup recruiter: hey, I saw your profile and think you'd be a great fit to be a driver for fedex! click below to learn more about our 10-step interview process

[hasty birch]

Do they expect bottom up tho is the real question

[neat shore]

Tbh sometimes bottom up is easier than top down depending on the question

[vague kraken]

I always have an easier time top down

[autumn ridge]

top down is much easier imo. throw in an @frail ocean annotation in python ez clap lol

[uncut umbra]

for how raunchy the swe terms get I'm surprised we're all virgins: "dp", "bottom up", "top down", "backend", "penetration tests", etc.

[vague kraken]

god dammit

[uncut umbra]

I can think of more but I'm in class and the TA is behind me lmfao

[teal jackal]

penetrate my nuts

yuh

[autumn ridge]

load balancing

[uncut umbra]

dynamic fingering

[night magnet]

nope mine is OG

[ruby plover]

What was the Expedia OA like for those that took it?

[uncut umbra]

"a top recruiter wants you to be a marketing intern" a top recruiter can suck my dick

[vestal pelican]

Should I apply to a job with another email if my first application is ghosted

[autumn ridge]

honestly worth a shot with how random resume reviews seem

[stuck compass]

In this channel, I remember coming across a trick to attempt codesignal. Does it still work? If so, how?

[rain patio]

do 1 2 4

1 and 2 around ten mins

4 in 15-20

should give u a 815-820 or something like that

completely skip 3

[stuck compass]

I know that. There was something to reattempt the codesignal multiple times till you get a good score.

[tardy sable]

Okay has anyone here been able to skip Palantir karat because they did one for their internship process before?

[rain patio]

check dm

[stuck compass]

Final round?

I thought the HM round is supposed to be behavioral

[neat shore]

Has anyone done Altassian OA for new grad

[tardy sable]

Karat told me that I can reuse my previous interview results (from my 2022 internship process) for NG because it meets Palantir's standards. But the thing is I was rejected after the karat round last time

[slate bobcat]

It may have been a resume rejection then

[tardy sable]

I assumed that Palantir does resume screening before the Karat round

[eternal mortar]

3 lc easy-medium

for me it was 2 easy 1 med

[shrewd ocean]

dam when’d u get oa and when u apply

[eternal mortar]

@shrewd ocean applied 8/19 thru tapia, got OA 8/25, first round interview 9/7, final round 9/23

[runic wind]

Ah, I guess you're in the pool

[eternal mortar]

praying I get offer 🙏🏼

[neat shore]

Damn altassian process is fast

Imma do my OA today then

[west egret]

Is anyone else in Bloomberg process getting ghosted after giving dates for VO?

[azure zephyr]

just got rolled in the first round of my expedia interview bc the interviewer pulled up a question on the hackerrank platform but then wanted me to answer a different question??

but then when i would start to answer the different question he would be like "no answer the question on the screen"

like what do you want me to do 😭

[indigo canopy]

I just flubbed my bloomberg virtual on-site 😭

I have oracle final later today, does anyone know if there is system design or oop?

[neat shore]

Is Bloomberg onsite just LC medium ?

[autumn ridge]

Yeah in my two rounds

[shy dock]

bruh i did bb onsite yesterday and havent heard back shud i be worried

i had the expedited onsite

[hasty birch]

Probably, expedited is usually two interviews same day or in B2B days

[indigo canopy]

lc medium 2x a round

my r2 guy had a really strong accent and my internet kept cutting

so we wasted so much time going can you repeat that at each other

my r1 guys pasted the problem onto hackerrank

but my r2 guy only verbally stated what he wanted me to do

[sweet urchin]

did you get invited to hr round after?

[shy dock]

havent heard back

abt anything

[sweet urchin]

they would have done it at the end of the second intervie

[indigo canopy]

I was told hr willl contact me in a few days about the next steps

[shy dock]

i didnt do 2nd interview

[indigo canopy]

so I’m assuming rejected

[shy dock]

only 1 interview

[sweet urchin]

this happened to me and a friend, both got rejected unfortunatly

but dont give up hope yet!

[indigo canopy]

does anyone at all know if oci asks system design for final 😭

I need to know if I should cram in the few hours I have left

[winter loom]

yo is there any benefit in telling my BB recruiter i have a deadline after final

[stark girder]

@enormitygamer#7198 bb tagged mediums?

[indigo canopy]

1 was very similar to island

[neat shore]

What is BB standard new grad offer

[dusty mauve]

wtf

[wraith harbor]

Also just bombed BB 😦

[dusty mauve]

asked hards?

[indigo canopy]

no

[wraith harbor]

mediums, brain just turned off

[marble bronze]

no thoughts

head empty

[indigo canopy]

my r2 guy asked me if I knew how to use arrays 😭 at the end

[small mountain]

real rough day today guys

[faint sequoia]

BB ghosts

[wraith harbor]

onsite

[indigo canopy]

I got my recruiter switched mid september

[stone latch]

how do you switch recruiter?

[indigo canopy]

I had the ghc recruiter during the summer and august/early sept

then I think my university/early talent recruiter took over

[low scroll]

bruh

docusign layoffs

i guess no return for me

[sour night]

that my em round for bb tomorrow doesn’t shaft me

[lime galleon]

I got ghosted from BB too. I got my VO and hr round Sep 16, and never hear back from hr again

[wind drum]

feels like they are interviewing way too much

[split plaza]

holy shit what

[lime galleon]

I emailed BB recruiter and no response either, it feels like the whole company disappear

[lunar badger]

When did u email ur recruiter?

[tardy geode]

😟

[lime galleon]

Last Thursday

[lunar badger]

Did u do the EM round too?

[uneven grove]

bb interviewer didn't ghost me let's gooo

hackerrank was down during my interview

[lime galleon]

No. But in hr round he told me that there will be a em round and don't require me to code

But not a single update since then

[vernal prism]

so nobody heard back after OA for rippling New Grad?

[west egret]

I’m getting ghosted by BB recruiter as well.

[lime galleon]

which round did u got

[west egret]

Gave dates for VO but recruiter never confirmed the exact date

It’s been over a week

[lime galleon]

[floral plank]

I think only one person did

[lime galleon]

From what I heard the earliest schedule for VO is in Nov

[west egret]

When they asked me

They gave Oct dates

[lime galleon]

But the guy said that apply for intern, so I donno

[ruby plover]

what was the question like?

[sour night]

Maybe they’re ghosting bc they’re slowing down hiring?

If you guys have a pending offer it really helps I got my process somewhat expedited

[west egret]

They gave me an option for expedited interview but didn’t feel ready yet

And the dates I gave weren’t that far out

[lunar badger]

Did someone tell u bb is slowing hiring?

[west egret]

It sounded like speculation

[vernal prism]

bruh 1 out of so many damn

[hard flare]

anyone know how long it takes to hear back from ddog after final?

[sour night]

Nah just speculating

[hasty birch]

If BB starts to slow down hiring we're truly fucked

[lime galleon]

I'm considering send msg to my recruiter on LinkedIn, since she didn't reply to my email

[late kestrel]

bb has been bad about that during september, which is really odd

[floral plank]

Has anyone did phone for bloomberg this week?

I have mine comming up on Monday

[compact vortex]

can u apply to google new grad and intern at the same time on the same email?

I applied to google new grad back in august with a referral

i recently got a second referral so I thought about applying to google intern as well but not sure if it will look sus for me

[weak latch]

y not ig

[compact vortex]

cuz it would be 2 seperate grad dates

my new grad app is may 2023

if i do intern as well ill change my resume grad date to dec 2023

not sure if it will screw me

ig ill just wait for amazon to start interviewing for new grad

whenever that happens

naw ik someone who already got an amazon ng offer

ohhh wtf

[hasty birch]

A lot of ppl have already gotten them

But they started waitlisting

[compact vortex]

bruh im getting resume rejected left and right with audible on my resume

[hasty birch]

When do you grad?

Wait how

[compact vortex]

im tryna get my return offer converted to twitch but my audible recruiter said that twitch might not have enough headcount to take me

ill find out by today the final decision on that

yeah thats what im doing

im planning on accepting audible this week

if nothing works out

[hasty birch]

Shit I may do that lmao, I know my uni has something like that as well

[formal glen]

Has any taken ibm OA?

[autumn ridge]

same it's so stressful trying to interview and do classes at the same time.

[livid citrus]

is citadel oa auto?

[chilly burrow]

This yr is fucked

[hasty birch]

Can you apply for intern if you already applied ng at a company?

[compact vortex]

the only places interviewing a lot more is hft

but i dont rlly want hft

[livid citrus]

replying to me right?

[compact vortex]

its not my vibe

where were u last summer if u dont mind me asking

[autumn ridge]

same I thought my resume was messed up or something but I've had it review a bunch so I think it's just really bad this year

[compact vortex]

hey thats pretty good dude i believe in u

manifest the W

you will get something

[hasty birch]

Classes are like my least priority lol, did all the tough classes before this semester so this sem is ez

[compact vortex]

yeah same here

I got resume rejected by palantir, last year tho palantir gave me an interview with nothing on my resume

[autumn ridge]

yeah same here but I'm like boarding on actually failing which would be bad

[hasty birch]

Problem is that could be too late

[compact vortex]

i dont think this economy is gonna recover for at least another year

its just starting

may-june was just scares

its about to get real

internship recruiting popping off tho

[frozen tapir]

i just got em for bloomberg, what are the chances you get the offer after that?

[compact vortex]

yeah

honestly if u dont have a return offer rn

i recommend lying about grad date and applying for internships

cuz everyone is hiring rn

just graduate and do an internship the summer after graduation

request an early start date

like january

or feb

yeah i think so

lol

[hasty birch]

Ain't no way you don't get caught lol

[compact vortex]

naw

just finish school

then do it

less stress

you can just set ur graduation commencment later

also

i feel like interns are pretty easy to throw away

[compact vortex]

wait amazon resume rejected you with snap on ur resume?????

thats fucked

[autumn ridge]

Same here they didn't reject but ghosted me with Snap

[compact vortex]

just throw those motherfuckers away

lol

honestly we shoulda started recruiting in june/july

when the economy wasnt this bad

[vernal prism]

yep deffos mistake

[uneven grove]

has anyone heard back from Duolingo? got perfect hackerrank on 9/12 and still haven't heard back

[compact vortex]

i didnt even apply there

[azure zephyr]

so real talk

if i didn't do super well in a first interview bc of technical issues, but i did really well in the second interview what are the odds i pass 😭😭😭

[small mountain]

high tbh

[compact vortex]

u got this bruh

[small mountain]

one of my friends completely failed a behavioural with them and still got accepted lolz

[bleak anchor]

wait did hackerrank die during ur onsite? it went again during my second round lmao

[indigo canopy]

no but my 2nd interviewer for some reason didn’t want to type the problem so he verbally gave me instructions

~<

[bleak anchor]

oh interesting

[uneven grove]

Hackerrank was down for my interview, so I did part of my interview in the zoom chat lol

[vernal prism]

LMAO

[autumn ridge]

lol that is hilarious

[uneven grove]

Then I shared my screen with notepad open lol

[autumn ridge]

that's actually kind of chill if it was designed that way from the start lol

[uneven grove]

lol nah the interviewer was like “huh hackerrank is down I can’t log in”

So we did the best we could

[last belfry]

How long does Palantir take to reach out after karat

[autumn ridge]

It was same day for me

[lament summit]

i just took it

i wouldnt say its easy, but very doable

[lone rapids]

I see thanks

[lament summit]

lot of graphs

[lone rapids]

Oh doesn't sound too bad. I'll do it today as well

[lament summit]

yep

[uneven grove]

Hmm I did palantir karat Monday and haven’t heard back
