[calm shale]

[bleak raven]

60 -> 61 in another year

[marble bronze]

MSFT levels hurt my brain

[bleak raven]

[static moth]

[teal jackal]

highkey regret not taking the fall 2022 internship search more seriously

being in classes sucks rn

classes + uncertain job prospects

life sucks rn lol

[calm shale]

i dread classes man

[marble bronze]

Wish our school had some coop/internships for credits program

[static moth]

[marble bronze]

New grad senioritis hits diff and I don't even have a particularly amazing offer

[bleak raven]

if ur good

[static moth]

i heard micro has slow career progression

o

[bleak raven]

also if ur a return intern it’s easier

[static moth]

hmm

[calm shale]

after only one internship i cant stand classes anymore. idk how freshman, sophomores with faang still do it

[teal jackal]

they really do treat return interns so much better that being an outside hire sucks in comparison

damn lol

[fossil jewel]

deadassssss

[marble bronze]

Return internships IMO are just so OP

[fossil jewel]

i miss clocking out at 5pm and then chilling

now i’m stressing with classes

[vast rock]

is the pinned codesignal link infinite retake or is it more like a use it once thingy

[marble bronze]

r/csmajors is just hardcore carried by mihari and chaewon tho

[sonic coral]

whats the breakdown

[teal jackal]

another dry inbox day

life sucks

[bleak raven]

128k base 37.5k stock/year 25k sign on/year (for 2) 13k yearly bonus

[bleak raven]

[modern socket]

[modern socket]

[bleak raven]

[hexed moth]

i feel very thankful that i skipped the waitlist

[fossil jewel]

damn for free though!

[wintry sedge]

what is the karat interview like? is it just a LC problem, or do they also ask you questions?

[compact sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/one-piece-luffy-ace-handshake-gif-23733923

[strong inlet]

same here , earlier was ghosted on 840, netflix / databricks

[strong inlet]

kinda LC but with a plot twist

[calm shale]

[serene fable]

Anybody know what types of problems are on the bytedance oa?

[strong inlet]

mine is still pending but , can expect arrays/trees

should be almost similiar to tiktok's OA

[serene fable]

LC hards or mediums?

[crystal delta]

anyone still waiting to hear back about your pinterest technical result?

had mine on thurs but didn't hear back today

[wintry sedge]

but like will i get real behavioral questions or just like an intro and then right into the problem?

[strong inlet]

talking about karat OA or karat Interview ?

[wintry sedge]

duolingo interview thru karat

[indigo raft]

karat interview: intro -> 10 min algo questions (runtime analysis or debug) -> 45 min for 2-3 questions

[outer radish]

anyone have any experience with the Lucid Software loop to provide some advice

[lament summit]

how did urs go

[crystal delta]

i thought it went well

[lament summit]

what q did u get

i had mines thurs as well

[crystal delta]

small variation on https://leetcode.com/problems/shortest-path-in-a-grid-with-obstacles-elimination/

[lament summit]

oh gawd

[crystal delta]

bruh i finished it tho

in like 30 min

would be sad af if i didnt pass

[lament summit]

oh wait this doesnt seem too bad actually lol

i see hard and i freak

[crystal delta]

ye it's not that bad

[lament summit]

oh damn u didnt hear back yet?

[crystal delta]

only difference was adding impassable walls

ye

[lament summit]

whos ur recruiter

[crystal delta]

SE

[lament summit]

is it SH?

oh

mines is SH

i heard back same day

[crystal delta]

feels like everyone ive talked to

basically heard back same day or next day

hope it doesn't mean im rejected

[lament summit]

doubtful if u got the q

just sucks u dont have a fast recruiter

[crystal delta]

interviewer told me i did great so

but then he was like "off the record, headcount not looking very good so apply to multiple places"

[lament summit]

oh rip

i didnt even get the optimal solution and i passed

so theres no way u dont

[crystal delta]

i hope

[weak latch]

🤔 🤔

[floral plank]

Lol I did this problem a few days ago

[weak latch]

i wonder if this is new grad as well

[indigo raft]

Do you know if SH is back in office?

[lament summit]

no clue

[crystal delta]

he said he hadn't seen the way i did it before lol

[lament summit]

i didnt even know she was gone

[crystal delta]

he was confused af that i used a 3d array instead of visited tuples

[lament summit]

the recruiter loved me so maybe she was extra fast for me

[crystal delta]

maybe they're just all out lul

[low scroll]

is 720 code signal enough for c1?

[crystal delta]

should be

[low scroll]

wb circle and samsara?

[crystal delta]

probs not

[low scroll]

what do I need for those

[crystal delta]

i know people that have 840+ get rejected for both of those

idk what the hard cutoff is though

[teal jackal]

ive never heard of a sub 800 passing circle though

[low scroll]

rip

[surreal shuttle]

What are some of the better paying companies than Amazon that are hiring?

[crystal delta]

pinterest

[surreal shuttle]

And also will give interviews easily?

[crystal delta]

palantir

databricks i think?

[surreal shuttle]

Rejected

[surreal shuttle]

Ghosted

[surreal shuttle]

Too much to fill in application

Rejected

[crystal delta]

maybe tiktok no clue tho

i think atlassian is similar to amazon

[surreal shuttle]

Wrote OA today. Absolutely wrecked.

[low scroll]

yo how do I link my alt codesignal account with my main

[surreal shuttle]

They are not sponsoring

[crystal delta]

doordash

[tacit grove]

Has anyone done tiktoks OA?

[teal jackal]

I got resume rj there

So dead end for me now

Man I'm sick of these dry ass inboxes

[crystal delta]

bloomberg if you negotiate

but idk how much you can negotiate

[teal jackal]

To under a competing offer

[ocean walrus]

Does anyone know the return rate for LinkedIn interns in summer 2022?

[keen grove]

has salesforce posted new grad 2023 for non-returns?

[teal jackal]

I am waiting too, but no

They posted a consultant new grad role last month

But it's gone now

[low scroll]

help

does the codesignal trick not work anymore

[lilac siren]

I heard salesforce didn’t have plan to hire any non-intern return ng this season.

[teal jackal]

I believe that

A lot of companies aren't this year

Honestly FUCK

[grizzled bronze]

They usually don't hire much new grads anyway, most of their new grad roles are filled by interns

[teal jackal]

Why didn't I try harder at Amazon

Now I'm stuck in unemployment purgatory

No job

Pessimistic outlook

[lilac siren]

[teal jackal]

Everyone is hiring return interns first

Which is valid

But it seems like everyone is smart enough to take their return offer first

[tacit grove]

is it proctored?

[crystal delta]

try expedia? should be free imo

if you have amazon internship

[wicked rivet]

expedia oa was weird asf

[weak latch]

Pretty much

They’ve always given new grad offers to return intern firsts every year

Except this year the difference is that way more people are taking them because it’s safer in this economy

Normally all those rejected return offers feed back into the new grad pool

So bc there’s more new grads

More companies open up ng positions

But if they can just get previous interns to fill out those spots why would they bother opening new grad

[smoky lodge]

I just bombed it

[surreal shuttle]

yes

[young peak]

Also better for them financially too

[teal jackal]

what even is it

[young peak]

Since it saves a lot of work from HR

[compact sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/whitebeard-one-piece-get-much-higher-can-we-get-much-higher-gif-26637517

[fair zinc]

Is ebay oa auto?

[wicked rivet]

i got the first coding one but not the 2nd

idk if thats good enough, probs not

[fair zinc]

Anyone knows if Ebay OA is auto?

[haughty palm]

fyi ppl, i passed Netflix OA with 714 code signal, they likely don’t care about it much

[autumn ridge]

recruiter screen, then 1 hour tech screen then 3 round onsite.

I believe

Any tips for bloomberg final

[smoky lodge]

same, i consider that bombing

[weak latch]

don't fuck up

[keen grove]

tyty

[lament summit]

every round is 1-2 LC

i dont think ive heard of a single medium yet

all hards

[bleak anchor]

I got asked trapping rainwater for Bloomberg

[dire yarrow]

yea me too.

[bleak anchor]

Twinsies

Are you on em round now?

[pure plank]

Anyone got reject from Microsoft now that they have frozen new grad 2023..??

[teal jackal]

once u know the problem, its ez

[autumn ridge]

Ty for the insight lol

[uncut umbra]

my msoft app is still transferred

what does that mean lol

[weak latch]

no problem!

[weak latch]

absolutely NOTHING

[uncut umbra]

...bet?

is it just a delayed rejecc lol

[weak latch]

Only Ymir knows

[uncut umbra]

[ivory stratus]

If it shows inactive it’ll be reject lol

[uncut umbra]

[weak latch]

YOOOOOOOO

😌

[uncut umbra]

ofc bro lol

favorite anime

[weak latch]

ong

[uncut umbra]

my mans listening to yoasobi too that's how you know he's a true weeb

[weak latch]

ONG

[bleak anchor]

I think space was O(1) but I don't think it was most efficient

[granite kindle]

check ur notifications lol, mine still shows up as transferred but rejected in notifications

[weak latch]

weebos unite

[weak latch]

he's prolly like me

[uncut umbra]

still transferred lol

[weak latch]

no noti reject either

you want some hopium @uncut umbra?

[uncut umbra]

I'm not at that weeb level, I only listen to jpop when it's associated with anime, but you... you are a true master

[weak latch]

i only listen to yoasobi LOL idk any other jpop or kpop

[smoky lodge]

lads what are the easiest big n companies to get offers from

[uncut umbra]

meh, I don't want to believe it cause if I do it'll be a gigantic crash when it ends up being false

[uncut umbra]

I got a whole asian pop playlist I can slide you lol

[weak latch]

They put a rejection on everyone who would've gotten rejected freeze or not, and they're holding us because we passed resume screen, but they're waiting on reneges to give us spots to interview

[chilly burrow]

None anymore...

[smoky lodge]

[faint igloo]

is the the question with some keyboard lol

[weak latch]

Your mother incorporated

[chilly burrow]

AMZN and MSFT hav stopped/slowed recruitin its gettin ruff out there...

[faint igloo]

i was trying to avoid that solution cuz it was basically brute force

[uncut umbra]

I reached out to my referree earlier this week and he said that msoft is still in a hiring freeze but may consider new grads later, this was before today's news but I think it's an amazon waitlist situation tbh

where they'll continue if spots open up and people renege for higher tc or w/e

[weak latch]

exactly

so if we haven't gotten rejected yet

hopium

[uncut umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/dumb-and-dumber-lloyd-theres-a-chance-jim-carrey-gif-11098164

[faint igloo]

the follow up

[uncut umbra]

^ this is me at every single company I apply to this cycle

[faint igloo]

nah i failed mine

but i think ur good

i didnt wanna do that one because it was expoential

since the complexity got worse with more node and longer words

i dont think the question its self was that bad buit like

6 rounds of interviews like why

initally i wanted to do bfs so i can avoid all looking at all the trees

yes exactly

i think ur prob fine lol

guess i still suck at lc

[errant gorge]

i don't think this is solvable for O(1) complexity

either stack or array is needed

[primal pike]

RIP

[west egret]

Same except like a week ago

[autumn ridge]

Anyone want to do binarysearch?

[lament summit]

its pinterest

[autumn ridge]

[lament summit]

[lone rapids]

[autumn ridge]

yeah pay is really good also wlb/culture is suppose to be great as well

[crystal delta]

[dire yarrow]

That's like $0.06 per hour lul

[marble bronze]

Holy shit, is AT&T done for TDP new grad? In October?

That doesn't say apply now, that says get alerted

And the former page for my job role is down

[hasty birch]

It's been done

[marble bronze]

That's surprising. Though I guess maybe they just don't have a lot of floating HC

[hexed moth]

do they really ask that kinda stuff

for swe jobs

id kms lol

[lilac siren]

I will get a sys design interview in tomorrow morning but still know little about it

🥹

[late kestrel]

around the time i got the phone inv (a week or two ago) the app was closed

if not longer

i have my final this thurs tho so seems like theyre finishing out interviews

[indigo raft]

thoughts on this process: 75 min tech screen -> 4 hr onsite -> 2 reference calls lol

is this rly the norm for new grads fml

[prime palm]

Yeah

[gleaming marsh]

got this from reddit for anyone that hasn't heard anything

https://www.reddit.com/r/csMajors/comments/xuve3j/microsoft_freezing_new_grad_hiring_for_2023/

[crystal delta]

pretty sure that was just taken from this discord lol

[fresh lagoon]

nah reference calls not the norm

[chilly burrow]

yes

[chilly burrow]

145k base

[low scroll]

does opening q3 without solving it reduce your score

on codesignal

[calm shale]

no

[ornate tendon]

no return offer from Meta, got waitlisted at Amazon, rejected from Bloomberg after EM!!! FML

[errant iris]

Has anyone done a one-way video interview before?

[calm shale]

i have reverse issue, not zon but i wanna start now lol

[calm shale]

ya its kinda cringe

[errant iris]

what was is like?

[thorn walrus]

are you in the process with anywhere else?

after i got rejected from roblox i have no more interviews lined up...

[compact vortex]

amazon will start taking yall off the waitlist in a few weeks i suspect

since the deadline for interns to accept offer was october 1st

so they know their headcount now for external hiring

[dire yarrow]

Cringe

[radiant juniper]

anyone apply to the Gap rotational program and get the OA yet?

[tacit grove]

Yeah just got rejected

[tacit grove]

wow

[tacit grove]

Amazon has a waitlist now??? or they still interviewing?

[mystic phoenix]

Does Linkedin hire new grads in Canada?

[chilly burrow]

Linkedin doesn't do new grads (i think). Also no, they only have swes in their US offices (but they do hire Canadians).

[mystic phoenix]

Wait so interns don’t convert to ft?

Rip

[chilly burrow]

No they only do intern conversions afaik

I meant that they don't hire external ngs

[mystic phoenix]

Aah i see

Gotchu thanks!

[chilly burrow]

I've heard conflicting things on whether or not they hire external ngs btw

But my friend who works there said they don't so I trust them 🤷‍♂️

Also I haven't seen a post so 🤷‍♂️

[teal jackal]

Honestly idk why I didn't try harder for fall internships

Not as many companies post for new grads as they do for interns

[compact vortex]

yeah they dont do external new grads

[compact vortex]

i think most do this year is just weird lol

[crude cedar]

will amazon send some oa for new grad sde again？

[compact vortex]

im sure they will

[tawny mesa]

i rlly hope so that seems to be one of the only companies still hiring

[compact vortex]

they prolly know their headcount by now

since previous interns deadline for accepting offer is over

[crude cedar]

hope so

[compact vortex]

yeah dw

they prolly wont hire as much as usual

but they are still gonna hire

[hexed moth]

ye

they def are i think

i mean i legit skipped the waitlist

[compact vortex]

wdym

did u get in earlier

[hexed moth]

no

i had my final interview on the 17th

[compact vortex]

kk

[hexed moth]

or 14th of september

[compact vortex]

ya

[hexed moth]

and i got an offer on the 28th

[compact vortex]

anyone know whats up with apple

they def dont seem to be recruiting as much this year

[hexed moth]

i dont think anyone is as much tbh

[compact vortex]

i messaged a couple of engineering managers

one of them responded

and told me his team isnt hiring

but others are and hey sent my resume to them

but i got ghosted

this other em read my message on linkedin but ghosted

[hexed moth]

pain

[compact vortex]

yea

[hexed moth]

i got nowhere with apple too 😦

[compact vortex]

i remember for fall internship

i cold emailed like 50 ems

none of them responded

[hexed moth]

oh damn

[compact vortex]

made me kinda sad

[hexed moth]

i met with some dudes from a privacy focused team when i was presenting my research

[compact vortex]

im prolly permabanned at most places for no reason

lol

cuz they dont respond

at least i know that google is frozen for new grad now

so im not concerned

[hexed moth]

do u have ios experience

[compact vortex]

yeah

i did the codepath class

gonna ta for it next semester

[hexed moth]

ive never heard of codepath

[compact vortex]

some non profit

[hexed moth]

interesting

maybe i shoulda used that when i learned swift

[bright tartan]

did microsoft just not move anybody forward

for ng

[compact vortex]

they canceled people's finals

[glossy fable]

Any one who gave amazon SDE interview recently, kindly DM. 🙂

[signal ore]

Has anyone given an Apple Privacy Software Engineering interview?

I have mine on Wednesday

[austere grove]

I just woke up from an 8 month coma

I can’t wait to apply to amazon and meta

Also had my google final scheduled

Lemme try to reschedule that

[chilly burrow]

im sorry to hear that

unfortunatley in the time you were in a coma the tech industry (and the world at large) seems to be goin into a recession

amazon has currently frozen hiring, and meta now seems unlikely to hire at all

google has also slowed hiring down considerably, but if you had a final scheduled u may hav a chance of getting past the freeze if you reach out to your recruiter

i wish you the best of luck

also i hope your recovery goes well too!

[west pagoda]

(I think it was a joke, unless your reply is also a joke, in which case this joke has become too meta for me )

[marble bronze]

he he

too meta

more like not enough meta amirite

[west pagoda]

Badum tiss

Imagine waking up from a coma and the first thing you do is go on fkn cs careers discord

Might as well go back into coma

[chilly burrow]

Im not sur if its a joke or not

if it isnt a joke, i woudnt want to offend them or make them feel bad

i rather b nice and b made a fool of dan b mean to som1 who just woke from a coma

[compact vortex]

is snowflake gonna release new grad this year?

[hexed moth]

oh

everyone is using a single post

[empty schooner]

Ah ok, I don't think it's a company wide hiring freeze. My portal still shows interview.

[slender apex]

Maybe it’s for the ppl who are still in the “transfer” process lol

[empty schooner]

Possibly..still waiting to hear back from my recruiter

[slender apex]

Fsfs

Might wanna email them with a quick heads up

Just in case

[empty schooner]

yeah I did this morning haha

[slender apex]

Nice nice

[gentle flax]

Has anyone interviewed with sibros?

[hexed moth]

i think it's always going to look like that

based on how you made it

because it's a heading on the left

[uncut umbra]

do you know ahead of time who your recruiter is? I'm trying to find out who mine is lol

[empty schooner]

@uncut umbra I had been keeping in contact with one all summer so when the jobs posted she hit me up to apply.

[fickle bridge]

Recruiter told me to turn off camera in a phone interview over teams => red flag?

[night magnet]

I mean not really

I don’t see what about that is a red flag tbh

[teal jackal]

honestly i miss lockdowns
having to show up irl to classes blows

[teal jackal]

i wouldnt think too deeply into it

if recruiter had camera off

then its fair

[fickle bridge]

Yea they did

Ok

[hexed moth]

lol

damn i thought i was an overthinker

[late kestrel]

if its a phone interview, company policy is probably cams off. that way theres no chance of discrimination based on appearance or whatever

[night magnet]

Ya agreed

[teal jackal]

im overthinking the palantir karat redo too

mine hasnt been cancelled yet

i took it sunday

people got theirs cancelled in like 3 minutes

[night magnet]

That’s why I thought it was

[lament summit]

[teal jackal]

having to show up irl to classes blows

[novel nimbus]

What are your scores like

I was close 800 last season but this season’s been a bummer

[stuck siren]

anyone done apple phone?

[modest night]

bro i have had enuff of optiver

they ve sent me 5million emails about joining their panels

but not a single OA

[uncut umbra]

they said to reply to their email if you want to be switched to austin, I replied saying I want to be switched and no confirmation of the fact ever lol

[rustic vessel]

Optiver ghosting me after recuiter phone, I should just process a reject

[uncut umbra]

I love being a new grad right now, so many opportunities!

[last belfry]

Is it weird I only got asked one lc during my bloomberg phone?

I saw on Reddit people got asked 2

I solved the question pretty quick too

[ancient holly]

anyone heard back from duolingo final?

[nocturne oriole]

Yeah most ppl get 2 lol

Was it a tough one?

Or u took like 40 min

[late kestrel]

i only got one, lotta people here have said the only got one too. just depends on the interviewer

[last belfry]

No? It was something I saw before

[nocturne oriole]

Last year all us new grads got 2

Like all of us

[last belfry]

And I solved it in like max 15 mins lol

Then after we just talked

She asked two follow ups

[waxen bolt]

I got the same thing at my BB interview

[twilit wasp]

did you hear back from palantir?

[last belfry]

After that we just talked

[nocturne oriole]

This kind of counts i guess

Good sign tho

[waxen bolt]

Got one question, provided O(n^2) solution and that was it lmao

@last belfry you're probably fine

[last belfry]

Okkk cool

[ancient holly]

im not sure whats going on

[shrewd sparrow]

nope, still waiting after my final a week ago

[pure mauve]

rip man circle is so far out

for final rounds

[teal jackal]

Not yet

[formal fable]

Just to confirm, Optiver does not sponsor, right?

Almost every quant/software role of their I've read specifically mentions that. Can you please point me towards the roles that are open for internationals as well?

Thanks a ton mate!

[uncut umbra]

has anyone who applied to adp gotten a ton of emails about filling out your profile despite having a filled out profile?

[shrewd ocean]

anyone do bloomberg final know what to expect

[formal fable]

Elaborate my man

[crude saffron]

Are opt austin and chi offers the same?

[weak latch]

doubt it

[late kestrel]

on site or em/hr

[shrewd ocean]

onsite

[late kestrel]

2x 1h or 3h

[weak latch]

oh shit

optivers office is in the domain

[shrewd ocean]

1 hr

[weak latch]

the domain is really nice in austin btw so if an office is in the domain that's a W

downtown office is a big L

[crude saffron]

I believe qr offers in chi and Austin are the same

Unsure about swe tho

[fickle bridge]

What do you mean?

[late kestrel]

so youll have a second 1h scheduled sometime after the first, and theyre both usually the same format as the tech phone

[crude saffron]

Opt austin is lit

It’s their LL and D1 team

[lone rapids]

Should i apply to same company again after getting rejected cuz of OA with another email

[shrewd ocean]

oh dam how far apart is the second one and is that only if u pass the first

[late kestrel]

mine got scheduled during the first interview for 2 days later, but ive heard of ppl waiting a few days to hear back

[stuck siren]

bruh how did i get two recruiter phones pushed back on the same day with like two minutes of notice beforehand

[shrewd ocean]

nice did u get any of the tagged qs

[late kestrel]

sheeeesh

[late kestrel]

3/4 questions i got between phone and on site were top 25 tagged between bot and lc

[grizzled bronze]

That's not normal for tech interview, you just got a shitty interviewer

[shrewd ocean]

any hards or all meds?

[late kestrel]

all meds

[shrewd ocean]

preesh that hopefully i can pass this round

[timber rock]

u just got unlucky. it happens

[chilly burrow]

Sounds like a shit interviewer

[pure mauve]

far out to schedule

[lone rapids]

After resume screen if i get oa and then get rejected then is there any point to apply again with alt email

[craggy radish]

Jordan Richardson?

What I am hearing from multiple sources:

Meta is rescinding intern offers, which offers were for 2023 start dates.

This is a first in the history of the company as far as I'm aware.

If they're rescinding intern offers, then NG is truly cooked

[grizzled bronze]

I'm getting a headache trying to read this, what are they trying to say

Meta is rescinding intern offers, which offers were for 2023 start dates.
English motherfucker

🤯

[lethal turret]

anybody got oa from amazon yesterday?

[last belfry]

I don’t think they are sending any OAs

But no clue

[west egret]

Bruh I only have top 15 done

[late kestrel]

lol how much time u got

[floral plank]

return offer?

or intern offer for next summer?

[hasty birch]

It appears he's talking about 2023 interns

[stuck siren]

no natalie

[west egret]

10/12 but some of the hards are hurting my brain

Even some mediums can be hard

[waxen bolt]

Return offers for 2022 interns would have 2023 start dates. I don't think they'd rescind return intern offers they're not as big of a financial commitment

[hasty birch]

https://twitter.com/GergelyOrosz/status/1577315509070139392?t=HrLBUx3ZkmknWO3TqJydtQ&s=19

Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz)

Rescinding these offers suggests that 2023 will, indeed see little hiring at Meta. You stop hiring interns if you're pretty sure you won't have HC to offer them to return a year later (or you're not 100% you'll have it).

THIS is the first in the history of the company in tech.

Twitter · Oct 4, 2022, 3:11 PM

[west egret]

@late kestrel what your on-site was only 1 hr?

I thought most ppl got 4 total LC from on-site alone

[waxen bolt]

Interesting

[hasty birch]

2x1hr likely

[wheat seal]

msft just canceled new grad 2023 as well

[west egret]

Do we straight up get an hour break?

[wheat seal]

headcount filled from interns

[west egret]

Because they told me to book 3-4 hours

[hasty birch]

Idk if "cancelled" is the right word, they just filled up

[late kestrel]

no i had 2x 1h for the on site, over 2 days

1q one day 2q the second day

[west egret]

Oh okay

Yeah

[timber rock]

Wow this really is a cursed time to be getting into the industry huh

[west egret]

Basically my only other target now that MSFT is gone too

Slack and SF are basically not gonna happen

So potentially 2 technical and 1 behavioral(HR)

But it might also just be 2 technical

Is HR just asking why Bloomberg

And making sure you don’t give off red flags?

[wicked rivet]

what's the em round like

[hasty birch]

How long is HR round usually? Ik EM is around an hour

[wheat seal]

they did cancel the 2023 new grad app. they only hired interns and rejected everyone else due to headcount yea

[west egret]

From what I heard, EM can be RNG

Some ppl just get lucky with a nice interviewer. Others getting sys design.

[hasty birch]

Ik it can be RNG in content (sys design) but duration seems pretty constant, no?

[late kestrel]

my hr/em round was combined on one day and they reserved 45m for each

[west egret]

All the BB offers in process channel has me anxious now

Especially with so many companies going on waitlist or straight up closing the job posting

[late kestrel]

took the 2nd 1h vo thursday at 8am and got the hr/em inv 9am the next day

[west egret]

Basically

[hasty birch]

At least BB > Zon and C1 imo

[west egret]

I don’t have a reject from MSFT yet

[late kestrel]

did u have the 3h vo or the 2x 1h

[floral plank]

Palantir seems to be giving interviews to almost everyone as well

[late kestrel]

hmm yeah recruiter diff probs 😔

[west egret]

But I don’t know how comfortable I’d be continuing considering that email pic that was sent around

[late kestrel]

oh interesting my hr was separate

[floral plank]

true

BB is definitely not easy to get too

[ancient holly]

how to prepare for palantir onsite btw?

[floral plank]

I am just looking at system design resources given here

[west egret]

The resume screen seems really RNG though

I hear ppl with way better resumes getting rejected while I somehow get past with non-big tech on mine

[floral plank]

So there is no system design or is there?

[late kestrel]

from what ive heard bb wlb seems really solid

[waxen bolt]

You can. You'll just have to make sure you're never caught and you can balance the work load

[hasty birch]

My view of BB > Amazon is basically because NYC is guaranteed pretty much and you can choose your team

[floral plank]

I see

[hasty birch]

That's assuming you want to stay around tho

[waxen bolt]

That's also fine

[night magnet]

No

[west egret]

Don’t have Zon offer by I’d take BB over Zon purely for WLB.

[waxen bolt]

I don't think so. How would they find out in a background check you reneged?

[hasty birch]

No

[foggy perch]

i've heard it's usually closer to 3 yoe

[late kestrel]

thats true. you do get a lot of freedom after their bootcamp thing

[floral plank]

Hopefully BB responds soon

[west egret]

Also if you work extra hours at Zon it would basically balance out how much you make an hour anyways.

[floral plank]

Same and also cuz of pip

[waxen bolt]

Nah there's nothing that would record your history of reneges or whatever

[late kestrel]

if i dont pass bb em i might actually cry

[floral plank]

Depends on the company

[foggy perch]

is it?

[west egret]

Would it be your first offer?

[waxen bolt]

Yeah some companies won't blacklist you it depends

[floral plank]

Like I reneged JP Morgan last year and they reached out this year

[foggy perch]

I just looked up blind/reddit and saw people saying senior was approx 3 yoe

for applying to bb

so I assumed it's roughly the same internally

[uncut umbra]

I reneged jpmc last year and then reached out to people this year to try and get a better offer and they just haven't responded lol

[late kestrel]

ive taken 3 other finals last week and this so im not super worried ab no job, this would just be the best

[uncut umbra]

cheddy is cracked tho, keep that in mind folks

[late kestrel]

hellll no

[foggy perch]

interesting

[grizzled bronze]

Really? What'd they say?

[late kestrel]

i easily have bottom 30% resume out of ppl chatting here rn

just luck

[foggy perch]

meh better to have BB on your app than most other options rn since they're not hiring aynways

[west egret]

Geeze. I get stressed just doing one final.

[uncut umbra]

and top 1 brain

[floral plank]

I don’t remember but they were fine

[uncut umbra]

if you get past the resume round it's mostly merit after that lol

[west egret]

I also don’t have the problem of having multiple finals on my plate unfortunately lol

[foggy perch]

meh resume screen is rng the same way passing lc is

[late kestrel]

bb was a recruiter reach out so luckily no resume screen

[foggy perch]

there's always some losable scenarios but you can optimize to win as many as possible

[uncut umbra]

does it count as a final round if it's a technical but there's an executive round or smth afterwards

[uncut umbra]

yeah see you had a recruiter reach out

cracked

[floral plank]

I have less finals too lol

[foggy perch]

at bloomberg?

what's an executive round

[uncut umbra]

I'm just saying in general

[foggy perch]

oh

[uncut umbra]

like if there's an hr/em round or smth after

[west egret]

All I have is c1 and BB lol

[uncut umbra]

that's behavioral

do you still call the previous round a "final"

cause I've asked people some questions and theyve been confused by the terminology

[fossil jewel]

manifesting bbg too

[west egret]

Did well on Thomson Reuters OA. Hope I get a final from them for back up just in case.

[fossil jewel]

i just call it VO/final?

[late kestrel]

yeah but no idea why, i go to a no name state school with non tech internships

complete rng

[night magnet]

Goat

[foggy perch]

are you a urm or nah

[fossil jewel]

the process channel says congrats to rejects

[night magnet]

Bruhhh

Lmao

🤡

[foggy perch]

i'm just curious

[west egret]

Recruiting season is fcked if you have big companies closing off NG in Sept/Oct

[uncut umbra]

it doesn't matter at all, I was just using that terminology in a couple of cold calls and the people involved were mega confused

[night magnet]

Isn’t that how to normally is?

[uncut umbra]

this is for edification reasons only

[uncut umbra]

closing off as in saying they won't be hiring at all? nope

[night magnet]

Nah me and a lot of my friends will delete out stuff after processing it. Just good to provide data for everyone.

[night magnet]

Interesting

[uncut umbra]

if meta is actively rescinding intern offers then they're kinda fucked

[night magnet]

Yeah that’s insane

[late kestrel]

i am a very white male

[foggy perch]

oh ok

[west egret]

It’s not normal for amazon to waitlist in September at all

[foggy perch]

was just curious since I've some heard recruiters like google tend to reach out for urm groups

[uncut umbra]

strongly white male

[late kestrel]

lol thats totally fair

[uncut umbra]

sigma chad superiority

[west egret]

The average person doesn’t even start applying until early August or so

[foggy perch]

any cool projects or hackathon stuff then

or just complete rng

[uncut umbra]

tfw you are below average in all areas of life

[night magnet]

Oh ok idk how recruiting normally works. Just my luck to be recruiting for the first time in this market lol

[late kestrel]

tbf im not actually that white, i tan easily 😤

[foggy perch]

since I've never had a linkedin recrutier reach out lmao

besides like liberty mutual

but they dont count

if linkedin recruiters aren't spamming my DMs once I start my FT job

I'm quitting

[uncut umbra]

I had a recruiter reach out for Hive

idk if that's a scam or not lol

[rustic vessel]

How do you get recruiters to notice you

[late kestrel]

on my linkedin no, nothing really that special. on my resume i have 2 market related projects which is probably why ive made it this far. interviewers rly seem to like if you have an interest in the stock market

[foggy perch]

huh

[night magnet]

That’s so goated

OCI pay is cracked

And sad that u got ghosted

All I’ve had is zon recruiters like everyone epse

[foggy perch]

even zon recruiters are something in this economy

lol

[rustic vessel]

I’ve never seen a zon recruiter

[late kestrel]

i dont get zon recruiters 🥹🥲😠

[dawn lynx]

Tiktok hackerrank anyone?

[night magnet]

Bro there are some hilarious posts of zon recruiters on blind

[west egret]

I do have an interest but I don’t actively trade lol

Just put money into index funds

[late kestrel]

oh yeah neither do i. i just have an android app i built last summer to track my roth + brokerage accounts and provide me some data

[night magnet]

Guys

[late kestrel]

and they seem to like things like that

[night magnet]

Look at this post

https://www.teamblind.com/post/AWS-recruiter-is-getting-weird-🤣-xesF1kTM

[teal jackal]

the university doesnt have the right to pry into family savings and bank records, right?
i need to tell them my sob story so the uni waives my $1k housing cancellation fee

i messed up and forgot to cancel my on campus housing on the 1st

more like i was not made aware of it

[night magnet]

Funniest thing I’ve seen all week

[teal jackal]

they can only see income, right?

[fossil jewel]

reg phone no

[floral plank]

Mine did

[fossil jewel]

yeah i got called and had a hackerrank

[night magnet]

Especially the comment “nudes or GTFO”

[night magnet]

They can. u don’t have any right to get the housing fee waived if that makes sense. Like they can request anything they want from u

[fossil jewel]

is this the first phone?

[uncut umbra]

me but intern pip

[fossil jewel]

i didnt need camera

[teal jackal]

guess im fucked

[night magnet]

Especially the comment “nudes or GTFO”

[late kestrel]

unless theres a zoom link in the email, theyll just call your phone

[floral plank]

Yep

[uncut umbra]

I had a zoom link and was expected to have camera on

if no zoom link then I don't think they want you to have your camera on

[floral plank]

Does it have to do with anything for last year process?

[marble bronze]

I have been reached out 1x every 2 weeks or so, usually by contracting companies but other times like a CVS or surprisingly some small Santa Monica healthcare startup

I think some of them see my profile when they search senior software engineer because in my about me I have "senior at UC Riverside, studying computer science...software engineer at ___"

[floral plank]

Or nah?

[night magnet]

I got a phone screen from a McKinsey recruiter that thought I was a senior swe and wanted me to start in Costa Rica immediately 🤡

Why does McKinsey even have mf Costa Rica campus

[marble bronze]

Taxes

[night magnet]

Ok but like which SWE is gonna go there

[uncut umbra]

beggars can't be choosers

[marble bronze]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[foggy perch]

the ones already there

[floral plank]

Last year I passed the first round but didn't decide to move on. Could that have to do anything with that?

[marble bronze]

Put someone on an H1B long enough and they'll do anything or something like that I guess

[night magnet]

Which means they’ll get no talent

[foggy perch]

psh not like mckinsey is searching for top talent anyways

[night magnet]

Moving away from/uprooting your family, leaving your friends, community, new language

[night magnet]

Ya facts

[floral plank]

I just hope they reach out soon

[night magnet]

Yeah it is but this was for a senior SWE position

5 yoe

[west egret]

Is this for BB?

[fossil jewel]

for bbg? i had friends who were in the process with them last year and then they just put them in vo

[floral plank]

Yea

[marble bronze]

@night magnet Which offer are you sticking with?

[west egret]

It took roughly a week for me and I didn’t even solve 2nd question

[night magnet]

c1

Ya it’s so weird

[marble bronze]

Awesome

[night magnet]

Thx

[floral plank]

Which office?

[night magnet]

McLean

[fossil jewel]

congrats

[floral plank]

Nice

[night magnet]

I wanna hop to AWS in the first 6 months to a year

Bc HQ2 is right there

[marble bronze]

I've given up on getting a PD, their pipeline is probably full and their offer is high enough that most people will probably take it if they get it

[night magnet]

Maybe u never know

[uncut umbra]

I am praying for c1 waitlist to be lifted soon

renege dammit

[night magnet]

Lol

their desirable campuses (NY and SF) are full

[west egret]

Don’t worry homie

[wheat seal]

SF is desirable?

[west egret]

If I get c1 I’ll renege them just for you

[uncut umbra]

give me bumfuck alabama and I will take my brownass there

[wheat seal]

i mean id take mclean

over SF

[uncut umbra]

bro, you'd do that for me bro?

[wheat seal]

but actually idk

[night magnet]

I did bc I’m from DC but that’s unique

[grizzled bronze]

Don't do it, this recruiting season sucks. Take what you can get.

[wheat seal]

oh i c

[west egret]

Imagine the NG meta where people trade reneges for their target companies

[wheat seal]

i wouldve taken NY if it was open tho

[night magnet]

Ya

A lot of ppl wanted NY so it filled first

[wheat seal]

but SF, no

[west egret]

If I get my return offer from WD, I wouldn’t take c1 over them tbh

[wheat seal]

plus most tech jobs are going remote now

so no need to go to SF

[night magnet]

What’s wd

[west egret]

Workday and no I didn’t work on their website for applications.

[night magnet]

Oh nice

[uncut umbra]

that would be so risky lmao

[night magnet]

Yeah wd is better

[west egret]

But funny to think about

[grizzled bronze]

Oh I assumed it was Western Digital

[night magnet]

C1 is like the lowest prestige of big tech imo

[uncut umbra]

but you know the guy who did right? can I be in a room alone with him for 5 minutes

[night magnet]

If u consider it big tech

[floral plank]

C1 is a bank but they have good tech

[teal jackal]

expedia OA is evil for autistic people
every question feels like a mind game

[night magnet]

There was that prestige tier ranking on blind

[west egret]

I don’t think I actually knew any interns that worked on it tbh lol

[night magnet]

That’s what I mean

That’s a better way of putting it ya

[floral plank]

But definitely better than other banks and on par with mid tier tech companies

[west egret]

Btw simplify actually works decently well for WD applications

[uncut umbra]

wdym

[night magnet]

100%

[dusky plover]

wait did u mean sf is filled for cap1?

[uncut umbra]

also I just got a fucking invitation to work at 7-11 as a react dev at minimum 70 bucks an hour

but it requires 3 years of experience

[night magnet]

ya SF is full

[dusky plover]

fuuarrrrk

[west egret]

Definitely

[uncut umbra]

what do I do lol

[dusky plover]

my powerday is later this month

[uncut umbra]

do I respond

with a positive answer lmao

[night magnet]

Say ya I’m interested

[uncut umbra]

beggars can't be choosers

[night magnet]

100k signing binus

[uncut umbra]

but we can definitely be negotiators

70 an hour is 135k base btw

[night magnet]

Imagine lmaoo

140 yeah

[uncut umbra]

which is better than c1 and jpmc lmaoooooo

[night magnet]

2000 working hrs in a year

[uncut umbra]

and it's remote

[night magnet]

C1 is 140 in McLean, higher in SF and NY

[west egret]

If you go into a WD app, you can just have simplify fill it out for you. You do have to press the button for each section but it still takes less time than manually filling it out. And simplify does it pretty accurately in my experience.

[uncut umbra]

my ass is staying home

[uncut umbra]

I thoguht it was 120 in ny, higher than 140 in ny is poggers

[night magnet]

Way less time

[uncut umbra]

beggars can't be choosers

[night magnet]

Lowkey

Can u even survive on 120 in NY

Like

[uncut umbra]

what is simplify

[night magnet]

U can

[uncut umbra]

jpmc is 100k plus 20k signing in nyc

[west egret]

Entire families do

[night magnet]

Ya

True

Everyone makes NY out to be so expensive

[uncut umbra]

I'm already a frontend guy lol look at my resume

[night magnet]

Never lived there

[gleaming marsh]

you just can't live in the main city lol

[west egret]

If you mean save a ton, probably not as much

[floral plank]

I mean people have lower paying jobs and still in ny

[night magnet]

Ig ya that makes sense

[floral plank]

Just gotta have a budget

[wheat seal]

it is?

[night magnet]

120 is really like 96k posttax right

[wheat seal]

probably less

[night magnet]

Lowkey

Ya

[uncut umbra]

that's what it was last year, they may have changed it but I'm pretty sure that's what it is

[west egret]

Browser extension that auto fills applications for you. Works extremely well on greenhouse and lever applications.

[wheat seal]

didnt realize jpmc gave signon

[night magnet]

Yo wtf

120k in NY is 80k

Posttax

That’s insane

[wheat seal]

yea im not suprised

[cursive wave]

does netflix call to reject?

[wheat seal]

in manhattan yea

[night magnet]

Bro 6.6k/mo

[wheat seal]

but if ur living in astoria or something

[night magnet]

Rent is like 1k

5.5k/mo

[wheat seal]

brooklyn or astoria
