[grizzled bronze]

Maybe I need to clear my cache or something since I have it toggled to on. Will try that thanks.

[late kestrel]

ive had dark side for a while now but it still doesnt change the problem page at all

[last summit]

now that you say that mines bugged af too

like I have the new UI in the menus and problem list, but if I go to any problem specifically then its the old ui

[calm shale]

looks like youre not in the treatment

[late kestrel]

yeah same thats what dark side has been for weeks/months

[calm shale]

oof

they finally implement vscode editor

[last summit]

oh really

[late kestrel]

[late kestrel]

[late kestrel]

they dont know imma fail this shit so hard

[grizzled bronze]

Were you able to fix it? I cleared cache and cookies and nothing

[last summit]

nope lmao

[fervent drift]

just uh applied to akuna

already rejected

[grizzled bronze]

Maybe it's because we have Premium accounts

[prime palm]

how long after bloomberg phone until you hear if you made it to next stage or not

[fervent drift]

if i just apply without referrals what are the chances they send OA or give interview?

[dusk edge]

Where do u apply for Apple new grad? Can't find New Grad specific application anywhere?

[fervent drift]

no clue but if you find it let me know

[indigo raft]

I hope ur recruiter’s email doesn’t start with AA, shes been ghosting people but from other ppl I’ve heard 1wk

[prime palm]

uuuuuhhhhhh

let me check my emails rn

[late kestrel]

SF 😎

[loud olive]

Wonder if meta new grad roles will still open in October lol

[marble bronze]

If they open new grad roles, I expect them to open at the start of 2023

[harsh haven]

Where can i get recruiter emails

[loud olive]

Think someone said they plan on opening it in October at tapia

[dense seal]

has shopify opened yet

[late kestrel]

ah man wtf is this

305 questions hell nah

[buoyant herald]

Anyone do a netflix onsite?

[calm shale]

thats all the problems hes solved on youtube, he said he'd include it for ez access

[fervent drift]

ayeee i have that

[calm shale]

nice qol add

[fervent drift]

i have his pro

[late kestrel]

icky wicky

[west egret]

I love NeetCode

[fervent drift]

same, i love how he explains problems

[west egret]

Yeah because it’s impractical to memorize code

If you can understand the process it’s way easier

[fervent drift]

indeed, also is pltr a good app? like should i go for it or no

[robust kettle]

my first scheduled technical (phone) interview, it's for bloomberg new grad 😅 I'm screwed lmao

[outer radish]

always go for everything fam

[formal hinge]

anyone got the leetcode update？

[outer radish]

u miss 100% of the shots u never take

[formal glen]

At this economy if you had a low ball offer would you take it or wait it out until more companies open up their new grad application?

[floral plank]

it depends

like do you already have an offer?

[fervent drift]

nice lets drink coffee and do an app spree

applying for ng in late sep is late as fuck isnt it

[grand summit]

no specific info but return offer deadlines are early oct so maybe around then?

[smoky lodge]

you know, in a high interest rate environment the places that tend to do the best are banks and trading firms

[outer radish]

already did mine but if ur buying me a coffee ill just do lc on the side

[fervent drift]

[west egret]

How’s your apps going? I’m finding it hard to even find places to apply to at this point lol

[calm shale]

i dont think banks doing well will reflect on tc, trading firms on the other hand...

[smoky lodge]

banks will likely increase performance bonuses

[fervent drift]

but fr can someone answer my question, is doing an app spree late sep like hella late?

[west egret]

My recruiter says they agree with you

[gilded dust]

Will meta rescind ng offers?

[outer radish]

eh, like i've applied to a bunch but i check linkedin jbos daily for new postings

[calm shale]

cant change anything, just spam now, better later than never

[smoky lodge]

i like how meta went from like top 3 faang to contender for worst faang in a single year

[west egret]

A bunch of LCers aren’t gonna know

[hasty birch]

You mean return offers?

[outer radish]

i've got a few OAS sitting in my inbox so im really tryna grind hard to get caught up to my LC skill set

[hasty birch]

I've got like 6 to do and 2 of them are hirevue which I really don't want to do lmao

[foggy perch]

ehhh I think that's an optimistic prediction

[hasty birch]

BlackRock OA really made me hate hirevue platform for coding

[west egret]

I’m at ~105 apps or so but honestly my response rate isn’t much different from last season even with an internship

[outer radish]

oooof, good luck my g - thats ur foot in the door so its kinda blessed

[outer radish]

LOL yo same

[foggy perch]

Codesignal > Hackerrank > Codility > Hirevue

for OA website tier list

[outer radish]

at least i didnt get insta rejected by okta this time

[dusk edge]

Where did u apply for Apple?

[west egret]

Bloomberg and c1 let me pass the screen this time. I will say that.

[hasty birch]

Same, have never not been ghosted by them

[outer radish]

fuck ZUCK GET IT TOGETHER

I WANT A BMW I WAS BANKING ON U SMFH

[west egret]

@outer radish if I get BB and you come to NYC I’ll actually get you coffee

[smoky lodge]

no because performance bonuses are directly tied to profitably/performance, it's just on like 10-20% of your TC scale at banks and not 100+% like at trading firms

[outer radish]

bro if u get bb can you actually refer me

like i'll actually pull up for the coffee

shit ill even contribute to paying for 1

[hasty birch]

I've got BB final next week in person. Apparently gonna be done on a whiteboard, first time whiteboarding for me

[outer radish]

btw what's everyone's advice for being super cracked at LC but with only like 2/3 weeks

[foggy perch]

i'm so sad bb doesn't even pay for referring people smh

[west egret]

Yeah I don’t think I have problems with giving referrals if I was ever in the position to give one lol

[autumn ridge]

I don't think that's possible lol

Everyone I know that's super cracked at LC has been doing it for a while

[outer radish]

yeah its usually a net gain i feel

[west egret]

Ehh they pay well and wlb is good. That’s good enough for me.

[foggy perch]

maybe

[hasty birch]

Depends, where are you at now

[outer radish]

i feel like my handle on DSA in general is pretty solid tho

[outer radish]

finished DFS, BFS, two pointer, sliding window on grokking - kinda struggle with DFS sometimes because of recursion

[lone rapids]

Can i get a bb referral they rejected me

[foggy perch]

i'll probs have to see what bb wlb actually entails

[outer radish]

but im solid on the other three

[foggy perch]

since im tryna maximize C++ learning and see where I go from there

[autumn ridge]

Usual advice is neetcode 150 and study patterns. I like to use anki flashcards where I just put the problem statement and the pattern to solve it.

[smoky lodge]

you can't get "cracked" but if you already have some DSA experience and muscle through like 40+ problems, you're odds of passing the technical will go from like 20% to like 50%

[west egret]

At the end, there’s gonna be RNG too.

[lone rapids]

I got resume reject from bb mfs didnt even give me oa and resume is decent to atleast get oa

[hasty birch]

Yeah just do as much of where you're weak at

[foggy perch]

meh you can get cracked enough to solve LC Easy/Medium (Not DP) if you just grind out neetcode 150 or blind 75

[hasty birch]

Well BB doesn't do oa

[autumn ridge]

I think what can help with DFS recursion in general is taking problems and physically drawing the recursive call stack. It took me a while for it to fully click for me

[outer radish]

yeee thats the plan rn

[lone rapids]

Man why bb is it because of sponsorship

[outer radish]

yeah i think this is prob a good idea, i was thinking of tracing the simpler ones

or smaller test cases i mean

[small sinew]

would it be stupid to apply for ng and internships to the same company

[smoky lodge]

i think people over-estimate how hard it is to get good at LC

[autumn ridge]

Also I've really enjoyed binarysearch.com for just rapid fire seeing a lot of problems

[smoky lodge]

everyone says 3 months to get good at LC but i feel like 1 is fine if you're going all out

[hasty birch]

That's what I thought lol, how are you gonna apply to the same company and have different grad dates without looking sus

[foggy perch]

just depends what standard you use for good tbh

[ivory stratus]

I agree. It’s really just the first 10 questions I feel like

[west egret]

Is all out 3+ h/day?

[foggy perch]

if you mean Easy/Medium (Not DP) it's doable

[lone rapids]

It takes years in all honesty

[foggy perch]

if you want to get good at LC Hard, DP, and Greedy problems it's a lot more rough

imo

[smoky lodge]

i say good is like 50% chance of getting through an interview or higher

[hasty birch]

BS is pretty great, but I heard that site maintainers don't really want to maintain it much longer

[ivory stratus]

Yeah but to get good enough to interview, it’s really not bad it seems like

[foggy perch]

meh to me good means like 70-80% success rate at technicals

[smoky lodge]

"cracked" is like you walk into any technical interview, slam you're dick on the table and then move to the next round

[outer radish]

LMAO

[autumn ridge]

I think it depends on how smart you are first off and then secondly what your school teaches and how far you into your schools DSA circulmn. I tried to LC during my second ever programming course at uni having 0 previous experience before college and it felt impossible

[compact vortex]

That’s my question

[sour night]

How quickly should I email my bb recruiter abt reminding him I have an pending offer. I don’t want to sound pushy but my offer deadline in on Monday and I just finished my EM round lol

[smoky lodge]

yeah having a DSA foundation before grinding LC is pretty critical imo

[hasty birch]

Should've just been leetcoding since middle school, would've been trivial by now smh

[west egret]

How was EM?

[smoky lodge]

like there's no point in just doing LC problems if you don't remember your search/sort algorithms or dp imo

[sour night]

Chill I got lucky my EM was super nice unlike some others in the discord

[foggy perch]

same

like me hearing the bb EM stories people are posting in chat is crazy to me lmao

for me my guy was super chill

[foggy perch]

was your guy an EM that worked at BB for 20+ years too

[autumn ridge]

Yeah but I think that's where the difficulty comes from like imagine you've been working for 5 years without any coursework or are self taught. Like it's already hard AF for me at least now but it's brutal if the material isn't fresh

[sour night]

Did u hear back yet?

[sour night]

Nah 10+

[foggy perch]

oh ye I've been at verbal offer for a while

I'm just waiting for them to finalize the offer letter

[sour night]

How long after EM did u hear back?

[foggy perch]

like < 1 week

but this was early in the season

before the app craze started

[smoky lodge]

i feel like i've had terrible rng not just in interviews but in life the last like decade or so

why tf is there a recession happening for the first time in like 15 years right when im graduating

like bruh

[sour night]

Gotchu u think it’s worth sending a follow-up to my recruiter even tho I had mine today? I to accept/decline my offer from from another company by Monday

[hasty birch]

Skill issue

[foggy perch]

might as well

nothing to lose

[sour night]

True

[smoky lodge]

it's definitely a skill issue on my part that Meta isn't hiring

[autumn ridge]

I don't know why but sometimes I panic about how much rng their is in technical interviews and just getting hired in general. Like lets say you have 70% chance of passing any given technical interview. Like their is someone out there who just has gotten absolutely shafted on 30 interviews in a row

[hasty birch]

You see it

[sour night]

I also got another offer since I talked to my recruiter. Is it worth telling them rn or should I tell them after I get my offer (if I do)?

[hasty birch]

Nah tell them at nego stage

[smoky lodge]

i literally have a meta refferal from someone but i can't use it cuz there's no job openings to use it for

[sour night]

Yeah makes sense ty!

[west egret]

Yeah I could get a Meta referral as well(doubt I'd pass) but can't use it anyways

[smoky lodge]

the question for me is how long does the recession last

like does hiring go back to normal next year

or is it gonna be like this til like 2025

[round lake]

Anyone completed Samara OA?

[smoky lodge]

it's just the GCA

[round lake]

What is GCA?

[compact vortex]

general coding assesment

[ivory stratus]

codesignal

[compact vortex]

codesignal

[smoky lodge]

code signal, it's 4 questions, the first 2 are gimmes, the 3rd is an implementation heavy question that's straightforward but has a lot of code, and the 4th is a tricky algo problem that needs to be optimal

[lament summit]

would u guys pick amazon or forward?

[dusky plover]

AWS

wait u have offers cuh?

[smoky lodge]

forward

[lament summit]

just amazon, forward is still tbd

[lament summit]

whys that

[dusky plover]

oh u chillin than

[lament summit]

but i want more

[dusky plover]

ur name aint accurate anymore

wut

bro its the fckin recession

[slender apex]

bro

[lament summit]

but amazon or forward?

[slender apex]

u gotta leave some for the rest up lmao, we picking at scraps here

[dusky plover]

i would say go to amazon for 1-2 years until they start waving the pip stick and hop

[slender apex]

id say amazon, good upward mobility and safety

[lament summit]

thats what im thinking, forward is too risky for a ng

[slender apex]

its good for a first, entry level job

[dusky plover]

look into their wlb on blind

[foggy perch]

just work both 4head

[lament summit]

[dusky plover]

if its an early startup they might work u harder than amazon lmao

[lament summit]

wlb isnt that important for me i dont mind grinding my first few years

forward might look better than amazon on my resume

[smoky lodge]

there was a guy who accepted like 20-30 offers and it took months before he got caught but he made over a million dollars

[lament summit]

plus its already on my resume as i interned at amazon

[smoky lodge]

this my goal but with senior roles when im 30

[slender apex]

homie trying to retire in a year

[smoky lodge]

exactly

if working a bunch of entry roles simulataneously for a few month is enough to bring in a 1 mil, imagine what the money would be if it were senior roles

obvsly you'd never get hired ever again

but who cares

[slender apex]

roughyl 3-4 times more id guess

i mean thats one way to think about it

[lone rapids]

U got zon return?

[grizzled bronze]

Definitely Amazon over Forward. Check out @chilly burrow 's experience with Forward
#2023_grads message

[loud olive]

What’s the comp for forward?

[foggy perch]

just take the amazon return offer and be rich smh

you basically got 200k tc from being a return intern

[lament summit]

verbally

[slender apex]

nah fam

[lament summit]

not alot 50% in paper money

[foggy perch]

are they even a unicorn

[slender apex]

u gotta sign the docusign before confimring anything

[foggy perch]

or are they way earlier stage startup

[lament summit]

just hit unicorn status last yr

[lone rapids]

Then u golden. I wish i got return too lol

[foggy perch]

huh

I'd only choose Forward if you could somehow Nego their non-fake money TC to be close to Amazon

[dusky plover]

bri'

bro

is cisco raising their pay

for newgrad

[lament summit]

i might take it if they match base of sf zon return

[smoky lodge]

i hate the federal reserve so much

[slender apex]

isnt base around 150 with tc around 200

[foggy perch]

I'd probs want them to match a bit more than that since amazon stock + bonus is real money too

since you can sell it

[lament summit]

something like that

[slender apex]

id say amazon stock is p gud rn, prob going to dip for a bit more but youll def get money back in a few years

so id argue for more as well

[lament summit]

ngl id say ppl at forward are smarter than amazon

[boreal cloak]

How is hrt codesignal ?

[lament summit]

so thats what im also considering lol

[foggy perch]

normal

[boreal cloak]

Is it just normal codesignal ?

[slender apex]

its just a gca

but u have to get above a 850

[autumn ridge]

I'm seeing some weird outliers on levels. Like it's from 85-120 and then theirs a couple 0 years exp 140-170

[boreal cloak]

Okay. What all companies give codesignal

So I can try lol

[night magnet]

Does zon still project at 15% yoy increase

[slender apex]

and solve the hidden fifth problem

[slender apex]

not sure atm but id say any blue chip is good

especially if they are paying by total value and not by amount

[smoky lodge]

does anyone know what samsara's cut off is?

[dusky plover]

yea thats what im wonderin

also theyre not hiring rn are they :p

hardly see anyone talk about them here

[smoky lodge]

question for you guys, if someone is unsure if they can do question 4 on code signal, but am sure that they can do question 3, should they just do question 3

bcuz getting 1, 2, and 3, is better than getting 1 and 2, not finishing 4 and then not having enough time for 4

[whole berry]

damn finally got a reply from optiver

they'll consider for austin texas

chicago is backed tf up

this a good sign ?

[uncut umbra]

is akidev's lab a scam

[celest whale]

How long does it take to get a response from IMC after their one way interview?

[grave wolf]

wut? can you get a score over 850?

[smoky lodge]

Yeah easily

[azure zephyr]

amazon. stay far away from forward.

[grave wolf]

shit. samsara does not accept a gca prior to april 2 so I did a new one and only got 849

[lament summit]

whys that? ive only heard negative things about the interview process

[smoky lodge]

rain forest vs onward

[azure zephyr]

a company's interview process reflects on the company

[lament summit]

i see, like i didnt have a single bad interaction so far for me at least

[azure zephyr]

forward gives the vibe they want you to die for the company

[lament summit]

i really liked everyone i spoke to

[autumn ridge]

Nah better off spending as much time as you can to try to solve 4 and skipping 3 bc that still gets you into the 800’s. Only solving 1,2,3 is 750-790

[azure zephyr]

i wouldn't risk it personally, i imagine the wlb will be terrible and idk if its worth the trade off, plus i heard TC is 120k in san fran, amzn will have higher offer

[lament summit]

theres like an extra 100k in paper money

lol

[azure zephyr]

ah i see

[lament summit]

but yeah base is p low

[azure zephyr]

well it seems like youre leaning more towards forward then

[lament summit]

i think the people at forward are def smarter than amazon

at least the younger folks

[azure zephyr]

120k base is good, just idk if its worth for what i feel like theyll put you through

what do you care about most when picking your first job? learning? career progression?

[smoky lodge]

but it seems like a lot of cut offs are high 700s not 800

[dusky plover]

https://www.teamblind.com/post/Talked-to-girl-at-apple-park-😢-0kB3MT1C

wtf is this post HAHAHAHA

[lament summit]

hmm probably learning

but then again amazon feels like a great place to learn as well lol

[hexed moth]

is amazon good learning

[teal jackal]

just me or does it feel like coderquad dried up

[lament summit]

yeah

cuz they throw u on the deep end

and u gotta teach urself lol

[smoky lodge]

it feels like it barely gets updated

[teal jackal]

because theres not as much to update it with anymore

i know will wang the goat himself who actively updates the board is in this channel

if u see this will youre actually goated

[hexed moth]

joy

[azure zephyr]

"youre ugly. how do i know? educated guess" 😭😭😭😭

[azure zephyr]

well it does seem like you'd learn a lot at forward

[quick wraith]

low tc itsover

[azure zephyr]

is roblox still interviewing? i finally got a 800+ codesignal

[languid charm]

what to expect in morgan stanley hirevue video interview ?

[azure zephyr]

i just emailed them for extension on the assessments and they responded instantly with a two week extension so maybe they are still interviewing?

what is the general cutoff for roblox? is 820 good enough?

shoot okay, i only did one of the cognitive assessments before i was like fuck this lmao

[chilly burrow]

Codesignal is almost always before resume screen

So yes they highly consider resume

[azure zephyr]

whenever i placed my resume in their matcher thing it said i was a strong match

[loud stump]

For citadel interview, do you have to interview in C++?

[chilly burrow]

Really, plenty?

I can think of like 2

At least from where I applied

[foggy perch]

Who, only places I can think of are pinterest and databricks this year

[chilly burrow]

Databricks isn't doing codesignal this year for new grads

So not even

[foggy perch]

oh they aren't?

huh

i assumed they were

[chilly burrow]

Never applied to Pinterest tho so i guess they could

[foggy perch]

then pinterest main place I know that gives it after resume screen then

[chilly burrow]

Nah apparently it's resume screen then str8 to phone

[chilly burrow]

I think they still resume screen after no?

I thot i saw som ppl complain getting rejects with 800s

[foggy perch]

i don't think so tbh

[late kestrel]

holy shit that first round was explained SOO AWFULLY

[foggy perch]

I thought those people were rejected at phone screen

I could be wrong though

[west egret]

Anyone else getting ghosted by JPMC despite doing OA weeks ago? Did they meet headcount too?

[foggy perch]

the way I've seen it is Pinterest resume screen -> Codesignal -> If your codesignal is > 820 you're basically guaranteed for phone, or if you get < 800 you might get phone with a super good resume

[chilly burrow]

Wait nvm i tink u right

I was mistaken

[foggy perch]

ye

idk what pinterests criteria for rejecting at phone screen is but ig it happens

[night magnet]

Did OA more than a month ago, no response

[autumn ridge]

I'm dming you rn. At least someone to share in my misery if you got the same question LOL

[wind drum]

i swear they just delete half the resumes before even looking through them

[wind drum]

someone internally told me you need 840+ or really good cognitive test scores, then they do resume review

[timber rock]

I'm waiting as well but its only been a week

[whole berry]

i second that

[hasty birch]

Got 100% on OA and same

[west egret]

Likewise

I just wanted an offer as a backup

[fossil jewel]

they just sent me an email today telling my they reviewed my resume and would like to go further and that i have two weeks for the assessments

i applied a month ago lol

[azure zephyr]

niceeee

[uneven grove]

Yeah it’s weird because the email I got seems informational more so than something to pass

Sus

[foggy perch]

wdym

as in the email you got before Phone screen?

[uneven grove]

Oh wait

I misread

I thought this was the recruiter phone

Mbmb

[foggy perch]

no that's what I was thinking of

I was saying to me the recruiter phone felt informational

but apparently people get rejected after recruiter phone

[uneven grove]

Yeah like I got an email to schedule the recruiter phone

[foggy perch]

ye

[uneven grove]

And the email made it seem like the convo was going to be informational

[foggy perch]

yeah

[uneven grove]

Haven’t had it yet

[foggy perch]

and that's what it felt like to me lmao

[whole berry]

for the interview ?

[foggy perch]

but ig they care about some of your answers

[chilly burrow]

Nah they ghosted me lol

I went to a conference

[whole berry]

so why the gift card

[uneven grove]

Hmm I guess if there wasn’t a possibility of rejection they would just move you straight to technical?

Otherwise why have an informational call when it could be an email

But idk what they would be looking for lol

Never used Pinterest

[chilly burrow]

Thanks for filling out a survey at said conference

[uneven grove]

What do they ask during the recruiter phone?

[whole berry]

my condolences

[chilly burrow]

Y?

[foggy perch]

to me it was just basic stuff like yo why do you like CS

or yo what do you know about pinterest

[whole berry]

because they ghosted you ?

[foggy perch]

or ay what's a project you liked working on

nothing too big

[whole berry]

https://tenor.com/view/eating-hungry-crying-while-eating-little-boy-and-burger-burger-gif-16263958

[uneven grove]

Ahh gotcha

[vague kraken]

As an intern in previous cycles

[uneven grove]

Seems hella arbitrary then

[foggy perch]

honestly I think the recruiter phone is just a vibe check lmao

[uneven grove]

Haha interesting

They’re so backed up too

[chilly burrow]

Oh ya lol

I even cold emailed

But nothing 😭

The only company I'd consider taking over my current offer too

[whole berry]

i hope that uber eats food hits brother

[chilly burrow]

It's an Amazon gc lol

But I'll buy a tissue box to wipe my tears 😢

[whole berry]

my bad im brain toasted rn

yes

[chilly burrow]

Piss?

[whole berry]

[chilly burrow]

Wtf is a pocket pussy?

I'm in a rideshare so i ain't googling dat

[whole berry]

[loud stump]

Is it fine to do the Citadel on-site in Java? for the technical round I was asked to do it in Python

[chilly burrow]

[silk cape]

anyone else get the cap1 waitlist email

[eternal mortar]

does Tesla do new-grad specific applications or do ppl just apply to whichever jobs they fit the requirements of? There's like 15000 postings on their website

[slender apex]

I just apply to all of the ones that dont require previous years of experience

[serene fable]

Tips on preparing for the capital one power day? Heard that they don't do much leetcode

[teal jackal]

tbh i feel like it feels hopeless to apply for companies that arent explicitly hiring new grads in masses

[outer radish]

anyone have any tips on prepping for the roblox process

[eternal mortar]

uhh when I interviewed from internship I got a lc hard so def prep

[teal jackal]

like i cant imagine fighting with so many people over a single position

[serene fable]

Definitely, but I heard they do other stuff too, so leetcode alone might not be enough

I failed an interview with them before

[eternal mortar]

I see

[serene fable]

I have a bunch of time, my interview is dec 8

[eternal mortar]

lmaooo wtf

that's insane

mine is october 27, I can lyk how it goes

[serene fable]

Yeah I scheduled a while back, guess they were getting backed up even then

Good luck!

[teal jackal]

mine is nov 29

power day is stressful

it feels so hard to get interviews now

[teal jackal]

whens yours again?

[night magnet]

No LC this year, at least for ng

Confirmed by 5 different people (including me) who did powerday

[teal jackal]

tbh local companies seem more stressful than big name ones
since big name companies have the resources to train their SWEs

[night magnet]

But yeah last yr there was a linked list hard

[untold lava]

Can you get rejected after IMC hr call they been ghosting me

[crude saffron]

Yes

[late zephyr]

hi friend

[untold lava]

lamo hello

Pull up to uc gym

[late zephyr]

Also for citadel onsite interviews is it better to go in person or virtual or does it not matter

:o

I'm not on campus

[teal jackal]

fuck lmaol

[untold lava]

😅

[teal jackal]

italy elected a far right nutjob as their government

im probably gonna renounce my italian citizenship instead of renew my long expired passport

anti romani racism there is also hella cringe

ill probably do that after i get a job

[serene fable]

Just ood then? That's what I heard

[teal jackal]

is there a diff btwn OOD and sys design?

[night magnet]

It’s like a practical

Not ood (no classes)

Just write some methods

[serene fable]

How would you study for that and the case interview then?

I bungled those last year

[night magnet]

Case u can’t rly study for its not too hard tho this ur at least

FYI there’s 3 coding bugs to catch in the case so catch them all

Technical just know how to use hashmaps

That’s all I used

[teal jackal]

i guess most of what i thought was sysdesign is actually OOD

[serene fable]

Is the technical an algorithmic test like codesignal q4?

[night magnet]

No way

Significantly easier

Q2 difficulty

[serene fable]

Oh ok then, that doesn't sound too bad then

[night magnet]

Yeah it’s really not bad at all

🤞 for the offer

But yeah like they’ll tell u if u got it right and stuff (at least my interviewer did)

[sage sluice]

anyone have that graph that shows the average codesignal score based on which questions you answered

[serene fable]

I remember messing up the case interview pretty bad at least, needed the interviewer to feed me issues to think of while designing a syatem

[night magnet]

Ya 1 sec

[night magnet]

No sys design

Just debugging+discussing pros and cons of testing

[foggy perch]

dang roblox rejections going crazy today

looking like roblox final is like <10% success rate or something

[slate bobcat]

Yeah I didn’t get LeetCode at all for my power day

[slate bobcat]

My technical was more of like a simplified real world problem

where you make like 4 different functions one at a time to solve a larger problem

it was actually pretty straightforward, and like a fun inteview

[night magnet]

Yeah all TDP this year have the same technical

[low scroll]

if a recruiter tells me to go through their connections on linkedin, how do I ask the recruiter to introduce me to some of her connects

[slate bobcat]

really? That’s crazy

[sage sluice]

thanks

[slate bobcat]

[night magnet]

Yep I was super surprised when I got the exact question my friend had sent me

So goated lol

[slate bobcat]

Did you get the offer?

[night magnet]

Idk just did powerday today

🤞

Praying so hard for C1

[slate bobcat]

Oh shit for real

same

[night magnet]

Nicee

[serene fable]

Good luck to both of you!

[night magnet]

Hmm no

I did not

[slate bobcat]

oh ok

so they probably switch that up

[night magnet]

Yeah

My case interviewer was hella rude in the beginning lowkey but then at the end he said u did a great job so idk

Like at the beginning he was just ignoring my questions

[serene fable]

Did you go to a case interview prep?

[night magnet]

Nah

[slate bobcat]

That’s goood

[serene fable]

Been debating going to one if I could fit it in my schedule

[slate bobcat]

I scheduled one, but needed up skipping

[night magnet]

Ya idk what it could rly teach

[night magnet]

Same

They explained everything I needed in the actual interview

[slate bobcat]

Cause apparently on the recuiter prep call they said the content is on YouTube already

so I just watched the YouTube video

[night magnet]

Only thing was this dude had a thicc accent so it was hard to understand

[slate bobcat]

Which basically just said ask question and communicate

[night magnet]

Ngl I got Scared after I watched that video but it was nothing like it.

That video was hella involved

[slate bobcat]

that video was so scripted

[night magnet]

Yeah but still

It seemed so hard from that

[slate bobcat]

yeah for sure

[calm shale]

does c1 call to reject

[slate bobcat]

the video is misleading

[night magnet]

Exactly

[night magnet]

Also would like to know

[slate bobcat]

I would imagine no

[floral plank]

they did last year

idk about this year

[night magnet]

But also I think the technical case is diff than analytical case

[calm shale]

[slate bobcat]

yeah th videos were for business people

I DIDNT see any tech one

[night magnet]

Yeah but like my schedule

Said “case interview - technical”

[calm shale]

anyone fail c1 powerday in the chat? did you get emailed or called?

[night magnet]

Just gotta dm ppl who processed reject

[calm shale]

[slate bobcat]

[night magnet]

I’m mad scared ngl

[pulsar mural]

[night magnet]

I need this

[calm shale]

[serene fable]

Are you referring to the technical and case interview playlist? It was attached in the interview confirmation email

[slate bobcat]

yeah

[serene fable]

Noted, thanks

[calm shale]

if you do it lmk... i dont wanna double dm someone lol

[grave wolf]

FYI

[night magnet]

Nah I’m not gonna so feel free

[night magnet]

Pic>word

[teal jackal]

fourth task is mando

[compact obsidian]

either that is new or outdated

[teal jackal]

you peak at 780 or so

without q4

[compact obsidian]

solving all 4 is 840 im p sure

solving 124 is 810

[teal jackal]

task 4 is mando for a good score

[compact obsidian]

Has anyone tried to get a 300

[grave wolf]

ya they are on the same page. lol

[night magnet]

@slate bobcat just got an invitation to set up a 15 min call “powerday follow up”

[late kestrel]

and you had your pd today? damn

[ebon quiver]

can someone help me with Knight Dialer

lc question

[autumn ridge]

what the hell idk how I feel about this LC redesign

[mystic glacier]

bloomberg just sent me an email to reschedule

it's not even a "reschedule" email it's like they lost their old schedule data 😂

[hasty birch]

Literally just did it like a couple mins ago lol

[ebon quiver]

can i dm u

[hasty birch]

Sure but it was 5% better TC, pretty trash. Used top down dp

[jade ruin]

stripe vs databricks vs anyscale

[chilly burrow]

Anyscale

Imo

[teal jackal]

Submit absolutely nothing

Basically the fnaf mediocrity ending

[jade ruin]

Why so LOL

[chilly burrow]

Anyscale is basically Databricks 2.0

It's extremely early

Great upside

Stripe is overvalued afaik (even with it's current valuation cut)

So imo Anyscale > Databricks > Stripe

They're all very good

[bronze nymph]

i think anyscale wlb is absolutely atrocious though, so keep that in mind

[chilly burrow]

But Anyscale has the most upside potential imo

[chilly burrow]

Isn't DB and Stripe pretty bad as well tho?

[bronze nymph]

i think so, but relatively speaking i think anyscale is worse

[chilly burrow]

I kno som1 at Stripe who says they work 60hr weeks minimum

[chilly burrow]

Oh damn dats bad

[bronze nymph]

i think stripe is kinda team dependent cuz its so big, but anyscale is pretty bad across the board

[jade ruin]

thats fair tyty, i know personally stripe is very team dependent but anyscale + db errs on the side of bad wlb

[bronze nymph]

a friend of mine interviewed and said all of his interviewers looked dead inside and dodged the question when asked about wlb 💀

[bronze nymph]

yea for sure, but like @chilly burrow anyscale has potential for crazy upside

much higher potential than db and stripe, but prob more risk too

[chilly burrow]

Tbh I think there's not that much risk

It's the same story as DB

[bronze nymph]

true, i dont think they will fail, by risk i mean waiting like a decade for ipo

[jade ruin]

For anyscale, I think the risk is a bit lower, but any liquidation event will be years away at least

[bronze nymph]

im assuming they have a strong cash component regardless

[chilly burrow]

Open source project made by the same dude as DB

So there'll def be vc interest

[austere grove]

For Roblox

After final

[chilly burrow]

There'll be no issues raising capital

Imo

[austere grove]

Does anyone know how long they take to get back to you

[bronze nymph]

yea true, risk wasnt the right word, more of super long time to liquidate stonks

[chilly burrow]

Ya def

https://www.linkedin.com/in/ionstoica

[dusky plover]

Say I'm there for you~, but I'm out of time

[bronze nymph]

@jade ruin congrats on the offers though, i heard anyscale final was brutal

[cold matrix]

its been a month since i applied to databricks new grad swe and i havent heard back, not even OA... is this normal?

[chilly burrow]

No oa

They go str8 to phone after resume screen

Also they have a very high bar

[bronze nymph]

does sound kind of peculiar, most people got either rejected super fast or given a phone

[ebon quiver]

im in the same boat @cold matrix

@chilly burrow what kind of bar is it.

[wild seal]

took about a week for me

[austere grove]

I think I did pretty well but you never know

[chilly burrow]

Like multiple FAANG bar

I'd say

[ebon quiver]

i have that

bs

[chilly burrow]

Or relevant experience

[chilly burrow]

Bullshit?

[ebon quiver]

just rng

[chilly burrow]

What FAANG?

[calm shale]

if you go to an early stage company like anyscale, are you trapped there until they ipo or get acquired? which cant take years?

cant be getting a new job every 1/2 years then

[runic wind]

not really, I think most pre-ipo companies allow you to keep your options

tho you may not be able to participate in internal buybacks

[calm shale]

for like 3 months no?

[runic wind]

Nah, most allow you to keep them forever*

[untold lava]

You gotta exercise within certain time frame I think you can hold stocks tho

[runic wind]

Yep, you may be forced to exercise tho true

[calm shale]

right i think you have to buy it which was the problem

for that one uber dude

[chilly burrow]

I gotta exercise within 6months of leaving 😭

[runic wind]

Retool is killing it tho
I'd exercise

[lone rapids]

drw codility is hard

[weak latch]

i got rejected within 24 hours with zon 🤣

[ebon quiver]

twitter and meta

[ebon quiver]

dumb i got ghosted. even worse

lot of vidos on youtube

[chilly burrow]

Tbh I know a guy who had Google and Snowflake who got rejected

[stark portal]

Did anyone attempt Intuit coding challenge on karat platform?

[chilly burrow]

So it's tough out there

[ebon quiver]

databricks dum af

i applied 200+ places

and i have gotten 14 oa/interview

[chilly burrow]

Ya you would think Snowflake would get him in

[chilly burrow]

I only got an offer thanks to a techfair

[ebon quiver]

what offer

[ebon quiver]

since when are tech fairs worth it

[chilly burrow]

I meant compared to a public company

[chilly burrow]

Greylock Techfair, which was super worth imo

[ebon quiver]

oh nice havent heard of it congrats

M is always there

isnt

[chilly burrow]

Ehhhh

[ebon quiver]

they opened for like 5 days and closed right back uo

[chilly burrow]

Who knows 🤷‍♂️

[chilly burrow]

Google? Yeah.

[ebon quiver]

i suck at leetcode

google and meta both

[sterile schooner]

Experience

[sage hawk]

250k tech vs 350k quant swe, what would y'all pick

[sage hawk]

I feel like even L4 in tech wouldn't reach 350

But a lot of that is year end bonus

[elder hull]

tech for me

[foggy perch]

i'd choose the latter

[sage hawk]

Wait why

[elder hull]

but if it's over 400 i'll go quant

[sage hawk]

How much money would it take for you to change that answer

[sage hawk]

Hm

If you're after career progression, you probably don't care about wlb all that much

[foggy perch]

i think people overrate the speed at which tech salaries catch up to quant

I feel like it takes a while and by the time you reach the 10-20 year mark quant people will have probs made way more

or even are retired

[sage hawk]

I wanna do tech too
But it'll be really hard to say no to 100k

[bronze nymph]

for quant it depends on how good you are, for swe @ quant the difference isn’t as high unless you get into super elite firms

[foggy perch]

true, when I hear quant I assume people mean the super elite ones like Jane Street, Hudson River, Old Mission, etc.

[bronze nymph]

yea^^^

[sage hawk]

Yeah assume elite quants, lol

[bronze nymph]

exactly

you can hit a 1mil bonus (arbitrary number) if you make enough for the firm as a quant, this is near impossible as a swe

[sage hawk]

Yeah QR salaries are ridiculous if you're good

But believe me tech people are paid really well too, especially at high freq desks

Like 2020 bonuses were insane

[foggy perch]

eh even quant swe make a good chunk

[bronze nymph]

yea for sure, no question

[sage hawk]

You'd be surprised if you look at 2020 numbers.

[bronze nymph]

i probably would be, but i’m making more of a blanket statement which is probably inherently flawed

[sage hawk]

Which isn't the norm, but there is gonna be recession soon hopefully lol

[elder hull]

can you give me a example 2020 number to surprise me

include YOE if possible

[sage hawk]

I know 2 cit swes with 3 yoe that got 1M+ bonus in 2020

[elder hull]

f that's thick

[sage hawk]

Low latency teams

[elder hull]

I assume they'll get similar this year

[muted spear]

Does databricks call to reject

[sage hawk]

This is bs

[muted spear]

Rip

How do they give offers

[bronze nymph]

i think for your case specifically it comes down to interest. if you like tech and want to stay in it, you certainly won’t be broke

but if you want to chase the bigger quant bag more power to you

[muted spear]

Oh I thought it was call only to reject

[sage hawk]

Like do you think shifting later would be possible

After a year or two

[elder hull]

Yes, people jumping from and to each other are common

[sage hawk]

Will that be a career setback tho

[bronze nymph]

yea quant firms definitely headhunt from tech heavily, but you have it in hand now and it’s hard to pass up if you want to go in that direction

[sage hawk]

Yeah it's a really good team too, core stuff

But tech is great too

[bronze nymph]

going from one to the other probably takes some adjustment, but i’m sure it’s not too bad

i don’t have any experience in this front

[sage hawk]

Should I ask in fulltimers

Very confused ngl

[bronze nymph]

idk how many people would know, but it’s worth a shot

[dire ore]

Is datadog worth considering over google?

[sage hawk]

Depends on what teams

[dire ore]

Datadog NYC TC is comparable

Tho no free food

[bronze nymph]

imo no

[dire ore]

Just catered lunch on a few days

[uncut umbra]

mans lowered google's bar and still got a return

[bronze nymph]

outside of a much much better team, i don’t see what datadog has over google

[elder hull]

imaginative stock upside

[bronze nymph]

perhaps

[elder hull]

sorry I mean stock upside only in imagination

[foggy star]

wtf is this Lucid OA bro

[bronze nymph]

haha yea i got you

yea imo it’s a no factor in all seriousness

[static moth]

google tc non nego is i thibk higher than ddog by 10k first yeah atleast. don't know recurring google tc

also ddog has catered lunch mondays wednesdays fridays but they serve leftovers tuesday thursday from the previous day

[nocturne oriole]

The intern return offer yes

[sage hawk]

Holy shit it's the mod

[nocturne oriole]

Even normal fulltime i might consider. Look into their culture. If u like office life good food and i guess u think team will be good

Datadog is great

From what i hear

Honestly take the $

And keep eye on stock. Ddog seems thriving and stable tho

If it was bad then G

True but google doing wack things like slashing budget for business travel

Before u know it they not serving food they are serving lunchables

[sage hawk]

That's um
Better than laying off 11% of their workforce

[modest night]

anyone know the capital one process?

[static moth]

@nocturne oriole would love ur advice, can i pls dm if that's cool with u 🙏

[floral plank]

OA then final

[modest night]

how long is the final?

and what parts does it consist of?

[nocturne oriole]

Ok lol i gotchu

My advice is always the same hit the gym and eat garbage

[fallen fox]

saw people getting amazon offers, are they pulling people off the waitlist??

[static moth]

love u bro

[runic wind]

I think their product is solid. Idek if the valuation is right and all that stuff lol

[echo finch]

hey i need advice too

i was wondering how to be less cool and fun and approachable

its just so exhausting being so popular

and having so many ppl that love me

[runic wind]

join toelands

[echo finch]

done

now what

[dire ore]

4 year average for google NG is 200.38k in NYC and Bay. It’s 220k first year w/relocation

[runic wind]

congrats now nobody loves you everyones jealous of that 800k+ TC

[dire ore]

The vibe at Datadog seemed chill

[runic wind]

but does the money jiggle

[dire ore]

I literally live across the street from the Datadog office in NYC. I did not know it was there till someone told me cuz it’s in The NY Times building

It’s a pretty lit area

And Microsoft NYC is also there

2 streets down

[static moth]

ahh. for ddog return interns the avg over 4 years is 187.5. so yeah there's a tc difference

[gilded dust]

I interned at ddog and google

Tbh they are both super similar. Ddog is like a mini google lol.

[static moth]

yooo that's the prefect person to help u

[runic wind]

lmao wow this server is goated

[dire ore]

THATS THE SAME INPRESSION I GOT FROM THE INTERVIEWS

[uncut umbra]

how well do you need to do on gca to pass seatgeek

[dire ore]

Wtf

[echo finch]

i interned at fb and meta

btw

once when they were fb and then after when they turned into meta

[runic wind]

like we can find someone in here working at any company ez

But I think we can also find someone who jumped from A to B for any A, B

[gilded dust]

@dire ore i would probably just go to the team/manager you like more 🙂

[dire ore]

By mini-google you mean it’s just google with less bureaucracy

[gilded dust]

Yep exactly

[runic wind]

@echo finch can you quickly interview and get an offer

[echo finch]

LMFAO on it bestie

[dire ore]

Old team at google seemed like there was a lot of stuff to do. Our org was created like a year ago so everything that was being done was new

It wasn’t rest and vest for sure tho

[gilded dust]

Read the internal google Blind

[dire ore]

You mean this

This is the top post

[runic wind]

lmao

[gilded dust]

@dire ore did you accept google return offer?

[dire ore]

PA matching tho my manager guaranteed me an offer once headcount is decided in 2-3 weeks

I’d say when are you available to start is a good sign

What PA

[crude saffron]

why not accept roblox and renege if g gives u offer

[dire ore]

Yeah most likely@going to blox then

Cuz google can match roblox

[gilded dust]

Is google ng tc that high?

Why is the tc super low on levels

[dire ore]

Yeah it can go that high

[gilded dust]

You need a counter offer right?

[dire ore]

Yep

Most anyone has got is 280k

[runic wind]

Do they match upto 280k automatically?

[lilac locust]

hi guys

[runic wind]

Like if you submit a 280+ offer

[lilac locust]

i have a question

[dire ore]

Depends if the competing offer has IPOed or not

Or is all cash

They discount paper money. Someone for example with 297k stripe offer will get a counter offer of 274k from Google. This is a real datapoint

[lone rapids]

Roblox recruiter responded to me. Just asked an update to an random recruiter

[young peak]

Internal said this was cap so idk

[foggy perch]

what's an MK?

and how do they know if it's cap

[young peak]

idk what an MK is but the milk thing from the fridge isn't true

That's atleast what a few people in mountainview were saying

[foggy perch]

how would you know

not like people are tracking who's going to the fridge 24/7 right

[young peak]

Each person in office would go to the fridge, check if it has half full milk

or CCTV

[lone rapids]

I just asked the recruiter when will i receive update after oa. He said within 2 weeks.

[young peak]

[foggy perch]

but also why're people assuming it's mountainview

and why would they check CCTV just because someone chugged milk from the fridge lmao

[young peak]

Us Seattle/Kirkland folk barely have access to the offices

[lone rapids]

Handshake

[foggy perch]

aren't there plenty of other offices tho

like nyc, austin, etc.

[young peak]

lmfao

bro

okay don't believe me

that's fine

[foggy perch]

lmao i'm just saying

[runic wind]

dang that's pretty good

[foggy perch]

this seems like a hard thing to disprove happening at least somewhere

in a google office with how many there are

[young peak]

They also discount sign-on bonus, I had 350k at Cit with a large chunk of it being signon so my Seattle offer ended up at 265k

[runic wind]

wtf lol

[young peak]

lmfao idk

[dire ore]

Isn’t that max band for Seattle

[runic wind]

350k != 265, sign on or not

[dire ore]

I think you hit max band

For Seattle

[crude saffron]

you can nego base for cit but it's not the norm

[young peak]

Tbh I'm not even sure what the thought process was for the number I received, they just said they reviewed it with the team and boom

[dire ore]

Cuz in Bay Area the max is like 280ish

[young peak]

max bands like 270k now I think, this is from last year

I started this Aug

[runic wind]

Man I honestly still don't get why you picked G

Like why did you

Can I dm

[foggy perch]

man likes tech

[young peak]

I'm pretty open with it no worries

I had a lot of reasons. WLB, internal mobility and future career trajectory were major players

[foggy perch]

true

do you think you'll make more money in tech vs HFT long-term?

[runic wind]

Can't you just go back to tech after 2-3 years anyway?

[foggy perch]

or is it more about wlb in that regard

[runic wind]

Like wasn't leaving ~100K hard

[dire ore]

My friend got an insane offer from cit this year

They upped their game

[runic wind]

swe?

[dire ore]

Yeah

[runic wind]

What is it 👀

[dire ore]

Won’t say exact but somewhere in the range 450-550k

It’s crazy

Depends on interview perf

[crude saffron]

yea

trader is super high

[foggy perch]

damn I'd do a lot of things for 450-550k a year

[runic wind]

what in the heck

is happening

[dire ore]

Apparently his citadel final interview was a joke too

2 mediums and 1 basic system design interview

[foggy perch]

meh quant trader pay being super high makes sense to me

since if you fuck up you just get insta fired right

[runic wind]

I think they don't even get to trade for like 6-8mo

[crude saffron]

not rly

[runic wind]

Man I hope my cit interview is a joke too

[foggy perch]

dang

maybe I'll try to job hop to HFT once I get better at C++ and systems

since they care a lot about C++, systems, and linux stuff in hft swe interviews right

[static moth]

what's expected promo velocity for new grads at google?

[whole zinc]

y’all said google starts interviewing late september

[fallen hornet]

passed w/ 807

[floral plank]

It is random though

Got 819 and then they rejected me

[dire ore]

Average 2.5 years

[static moth]

to midlevel??

[dire ore]

Yeah

That’s the internal stats

[static moth]

holy lol

[dire ore]

Fastest is like 1 year

Depends on team and manager off course

[foggy perch]

dang imagine being the 1 year guy

I imagine they must've had yoe elsewhere or smthing

[autumn ridge]

Has anyone gotten Final Round request after 2 VO rounds from bloomberg? The title of the email says final round request but it's 45 min with a senior engineer. Doesn't mention anything about engineering manager. Anyone know whats up? Idk if this is my EM round or if I didn't do well enough in VO so they want an additional VO round

[static moth]

so at datadog, to midlevel it's usually a year to a year and a half (according to my recruiter). but return interns have gotten it in a year or "within a year" according to my manager's manager. idk how accurate it is or if he was just tryna entice me to come back lol but ya

[foggy perch]

sounds like EM round

[dire ore]

Probably true tho the stats I got were from internal google stats rather than from a recruiter

I’m pretty suspect of recruiters nowadays

I’d imagine it is pretty slow tho

IIRC the people who got promoted in 1 year from l3 ->l4 is a extremely small number

[foggy perch]

job of a recruiter is just to bait you in after all

[dire ore]

Like ~2% of the l3s who GOT promoted that year did it in 1 year. Not just the entire population of l3s

[static moth]

ya very true

[bronze nymph]

the benefit is l4 at google holds much more weight than l4 at most other places

[signal abyss]

Has anyone given Expedia new grad 2023 OA ?

[uncut umbra]

did you get q4 or no

kinda hoping 780 is good enough for some places

but I do want to try another codesignal sometime for a company that won't dick me lol

[teal jackal]

Now that's hella funny

Since they resume screen first

[teal jackal]

I'd suck horse nuts for 450k tc tbh

[steel parcel]

What’s the interview process like for citadel?

[livid yew]

pretty good credit score

oh lmao

[livid yew]

[cobalt siren]

Applied to pinterest on september 12th and no OA, am I SOL?

[livid yew]

well its been almost 3 weeks

[dire ore]

bro

has anyone noticed

in the past few days

there has been no major newgrad app release from any companies

[fresh laurel]

[marble bronze]

Same supply of new grads, less demand

Really only 1 of 2 outcomes

1. New financial year comes, budgets are renewed TC refills to come extent (good ending)
2. New financial year comes, budgets are rebalances against a stalling economy and ongoing inflation, and a decision is made to kill the TC for new grads for the upcoming FY, or at least for the upcoming 1st half.

[fresh laurel]

I'm actually here for a course project lol

[marble bronze]

Oh yeah 100%

[dusky plover]

even more, with those ppl that didnt get ROs

[marble bronze]

NG roles will def go first to current interns, and if there are any left then new grad

[fresh laurel]

haven't heard of anyone who got an offer from any FAANG

[marble bronze]

But if HC goes down, then chances of any left over is even less

[teal jackal]

I think a lot of us who can't get a big n company will be killing each other over the better local companies in late season

[teal jackal]

or is that just the bubble of cscd

[fresh laurel]

from where

[teal jackal]

because i feel like a lot of people here will be unhappy with their result and be motivated to try harder

so probably
