#

it's not just us not finding jobs too

#

only field that's probably good right now to get into, because it always is, is medicine

teal jackal
#

i think we're just unlucky to be the recession generation of tech

#

but i think if we work hard now and just settle for what we can get, we can still have a great outcome

#

but that's long run

#

short term, it does suck that we got cheated out of the money printer everyone else got

forest aspen
#

also

#

i feel

#

new grad positions

#

hardest to get into to start with

#

were honestly not that valuable at all to start

teal jackal
#

Yes, for sure

forest aspen
#

but once recession is over most of us will be outat entry level jobs

ivory stratus
#

yeah exactly

#

recruiters usually recruit more for experience too

#

itll be easier once we get our first job

teal jackal
#

Tbh it was stupid from the start to think new grads would be swimming in interviews and recruiter messages

forest aspen
#

im saying entry level jobs are just hardest to get into in general, youre basically useless for the first several months

teal jackal
#

New grads are worthless, tbh even more worthless than interns

#

Internship is like a test drive for potential full timers

forest aspen
#

expensive and inexperienced lol

#

ill look for new grad postings

#

and ill see like hundreds of junior postings

#

so lowk as long as we stay on top of our stuff

#

this is about as hard as its guna get lowk

#

i hope LOL

#

as long as were not like jacking off on our jobs

#

metaphorically

teal jackal
#

Outside hire new grads are worth even less than intern applicants(rising senior interns)

#

I regret not applying more aggressively to internships for summer 2022

#

Tbh

forest aspen
#

same

#

i was like

#

playing videogames

#

but for my situation

#

even if i got an internship i would not have been able to follow through with it

#

i had fam issues each summer, which was fine for school but it didnt allow me to work summer jobs or anythign

teal jackal
#

I think applying to new grad is worse than applying to internships as a junior, but better than applying to internships as a sophomore

#

Man that sucks

sage skiff
#

I was more wanted when I was a junior tbh

teal jackal
forest aspen
#

i wish i had an internship though, i just ahve to make my website maintenance sound like a softare job on my resume

#

i have friends who are tryna get internships

#

and say they expect you to know a lot as an intern

#

like interviews are brutal at even small companies

#

if you can even get one

teal jackal
#

Maybe it's just a recession thing

#

I think new grad headcount got more negatively hit by the recession

#

Than intern headcount

forest aspen
#

a lot of my sophomore and junior friends being asked 3 LC hards on small firms was like unfair to me

teal jackal
#

Most companies still are going ahead with internships, even those that are skipping hiring new grads

forest aspen
#

but maybe they just got luck diffed

teal jackal
#

Really sucks to be a time to be an outside hire new grad

#

Ive accepted that my first Job probably won't make a lot of money

night magnet
#

Is it cheaper?

#

Oh you mean with recruitment costs

#

Ya

dire ore
#

Goes down

#

Suspecting a lot of the interns next year are gonna have it worse

#

This bear market is going to continue well into 2023

teal jackal
#

I don't believe in forcing other people to suffer with me when I suffered, so I hope for the best of luck for 2024 grads

dire ore

We have cheap stocks though

Every day I regret not working hard earlier

#

Every day I regret not taking this grindset seriously earlier when I had the chance

#

Second best time to start though, is now

sage skiff
#

I feel the same but I think I’m just never satisfied with myself💀 I know some people grind so much their health is in jeopardy

teal jackal
#

Should I go home for the weekend again or stay on campus

sage skiff
#

I know someone went to the ER for having too much caffeine and like no sleep

teal jackal
#

Some college friends are planning on going to an escape room thingy, but I'm not that close with them

dry salmon

#

But it's like

#

1.) I honestly don't consider myself that close with them

#

2.) I enjoy time at home too

#

Yeah you're right I'll stay on campus this weekend

sage skiff
#

Stronger connection. Idk that’s how I became close to my current friends also it somehow lead to me having more opportunities

do one or two hards

and dont push yourself that hard

west egret

I did a few hards and the harder mediums but they never came up for me

teal jackal
#

is it usually good, bad, or neutral when after an interviewer the interviewer says "you should epxect next steps in a couple of days"

#

tbh i recant the question

#

speculation is useless

#

its not healthy to try to predict what other people will do

west egret
teal jackal
#

honestly always treat failure like its a possible outcome

#

no matter how well you thought you did

west egret
#

Feeling bad / anxious directly after the interview is normal.

#

But yeah after the first day it’s pointless because you already did your best. You can’t affect the outcome any longer.

#

good reach outs or mid ones?

teal jackal
#

how do u advertise?

#

tbh most recruiter reachouts are from companies a tier below

#

at least as a new grad

#

at the new grad level, companies know when they're good enough that top applicants will naturally come to them

#

for mid companies they have to headhunt

fossil jewel
#

think they got rejected last year after VO and the recruiter did their thing and got them at that stage instead of going through the motions

#

think amazon reached out too but i think that might've been email email

#

honestly recruitment is so weird lol no one really understands how they're instructed to do their job

if you have something on your resume that you didn't spend that much time working on in your internship, and if you're pressed on something you don't really remember, can you say smth like "I didn't really work on it for a long period of time so I don't remember but..."

So guys

#

my deadline is coming up but do you think if I accept this offer I can negotiate later

#

or am I stuck

#

I’m thinking I’m stuck

#

or should I BS that I have a verbal offer

#

even though I don’t because interviews are so slow

ebon quiver
#

if u accept u cant negotiate anymore

#

u can renege

#

but u cant negotiate

Thing is

#

I rather work for company A (the deadline coming up one) than company B

Aside from that, I don’t really prep behavioral all that much. I mostly just go to their company site to look at their values to answer the why this company question.

Should you always negotiate

#

Even if no competing

lilac locust
#

which sucks

west egret
#

My risk tolerance is pretty low in this economy when I don’t at least have competing offer.

ebon quiver
#

i think its always worth negotiating

#

i dont think any company is going to pull an offer because u tried to negotiate. as long as u did it well

#

now all that being said, its about to happen to me

#

my recruiter hasnt responded in a while gg

west egret
ebon quiver
#

so effectively no backup

#

risky move

lilac locust
#

Amazon?

ebon quiver
#

no i tried negotiating amazon with a c3.ai offer

#

im low key scared i just lost the amazon offer tho im negl

lilac locust

Do companies normally not schedule a phone call through a Google calendar invite

lilac locust

however

#

you should have just asked for an extension first

i meant phone

#

oops

ebon quiver
#

why whats the difference

uncut umbra
#

also as long as you're not giving away private info i.e. your phone number is on your resume or linkedin, even if it is a scam you can just say no. idt they can fuck you through just a phone call without your consent

ebon quiver
# lilac locust oops

what im scared of is that before is sent this another recruiter said that no times are hiring and that there is some pressure from internal people who want to join as well 💀

#

but tbh, if i lose the offer then who cares, im not even that bothered. i like being jobless

And how often does your recruiter get back to you

ebon quiver

Quickly*

#

Who do you e engage with for negotiation

ebon quiver
#

the closing recrtuier

#

the sourcing rectuier is the one that put pressure

#

im p sure shes capping

#

we will see. decent chance i lose this offer in which case it is what it is

#

think it was worth a shot

lilac locust

Are you new grad

you should have left it open ended

for this role

lilac locust

Maybe they will counter with 190

#

Then just take it

ebon quiver

maybe they also counter with rescinding the offer @lilac locust

some people find interviews fun

its fine if ur a lc god

crude saffron
#

also if all your remaining interviews are for similar tier or higher tier offers then optionality is always good

west egret
#

I only have 2 but I imagine it’s for maximizing TC and just having options. If two companies pay about the same but WLB is way better at one….why not do the interview with them to make your life a little better.
