2023_grads

[fallen fox]

yeah well pretty much no one is hiring new grads right now

[acoustic pivot]

I did it last week, you dont need to turn a camera on. Part 1 is on Hackerrank, 2nd part is workplace sim stuff

[twilit wasp]

anyone did the Morgan Stanley phone interview?

[shrewd ivy]

bruh I am waiting for my cap1 interview but they didn't send the zoom link and recruiter is not answering

[high arrow]

anyone know of any good companies in DC area that isn't C1, microsoft, or a defense contractor?

[lunar hatch]

Does TS call to reject 😢

[ebon quiver]

is it bad to renege AFTER u have done background check ?

guys, in the case that you are doing onboarding with a company, but u want to possibly consider other offers -- what is a fair timeline to expedite the process with other companies such that it is still practical. (i can kinda choose when my "deadline" is if that makes sense cuz im renegging.. but i feel like renegging earlier is def better)

[plush crane]

Amazon

[small mountain]

they arent hiring anymore

[timber rock]

[west egret]

What’s TS?

[uncut umbra]

TateSpeaks

[tardy geode]

if i make a new session on LC , will it break my streak?

any idea?

?

[ebon quiver]

whats a sesesion

[tardy geode]

you can create sessions on LC

[uncut umbra]

has anyone done the lucid software phone?

[wind ice]

Morning, has anyone did a tech interview for full stack software engineer at home depot??

[quartz vale]

This server is def more dead than last year lmaoi

[wind drum]

ppl took their return offers ig

[ebon quiver]

what return offers

🥹

[uncut umbra]

idk how dead it was last year but usually during the school day there's fewer messages

this channel pops off on the weekends and evenings

[quartz vale]

idk man it felt super alive last year

maybe it was just me

[quartz vale]

yeah makes sense

[wind drum]

yeah server was def poppin more the past 2 recruiting seasons

[rigid quail]

100% you couldn’t keep up with the messages

[inner rivet]

Curious if you can defer google new grad from 2023 to 2024? I passed the hiring committee, but apparently they won't have their head count for each org until January.

I wanted to delay my grad, and ask google if I'd be eligible for new grad with my current HC results for may 2024 instead of september 2023

anyone know if this is possible?

[ebon quiver]

oh yeah i remember this

[marsh sand]

Guys i just got bb phone

Whats after phone

Or should i say whats the entire process for bb

[lament summit]

Lowkey aren’t u glad ur not at Twitter rn

[ebon quiver]

yeah i guess. but i woulda made some good money from it lol

[prime palm]

Yeah

[rigid quail]

went from best hiring year ever to this

[ebon quiver]

ikr. i had like multiple offers and everything. and like a ton of people did too

is it bad to say that you dont feel comfortable sharing offer deadline when they ask?

like that isnt a red flag is it?

[wind drum]

why aren't u sharing it

[ebon quiver]

cuz its not really an offer deadline. its my start date with another company i might renege 💀

[wind drum]

just tell them the deadline is irrelevant to your decision

[ebon quiver]

sorry could u say that in different words? im not 100% sure what u mean

[wind drum]

when they ask just tell them it doesn't matter or something because you can get an extension

are u using this offer for expediting or nego

[ebon quiver]

for both

[wind drum]

for expediting you kinda gotta tell them deadline i feel like

[ebon quiver]

i just want the company to expedite in general but not so much that they say no because of it if that makes sense

[ebon quiver]

hmm ok

[ebon quiver]

then what is a fair deadline then to set if u are in the phase of scheduling final round.

[wind drum]

anywhere from 2 weeks to a month

[ebon quiver]

u think 1 week is too little time for them to schedule and make a decision?

[wind drum]

yeah probably

unless they are a startup or something

[ebon quiver]

yeah they are a startup

[wind drum]

ah in that case there is a chance

they prob won't outright reject if you try to expedite that far but they'll tell u they can only expedite so far

[ebon quiver]

maybe i just ask for two weeks. thats fair

or i could say that im not comfortable sharing my deadline but i would appreciate expedited process

then they can do it as much as they are comfortable doing

[meager moss]

Finding a lot of Co-op/Internships compared to new grad positions. Wondering if I should apply to those too? I already have two 8-month internships and graduating with Master's in Aug 2023.

[surreal sun]

what u guys recommend for leetcode prep? I've got a lot of time so I wanna go about it the right way

[meager moss]

https://neetcode.io/

[surreal sun]

so just go through neetcode 150 and blind 75?

[meager moss]

Blind 75 was the OG list made by someone else. The Neetcode 150 list includes all of Blind 75 + another 75 questions. I would recommend the 150 list but don't need to do the Neetcode All

[dusty mauve]

bruh why would you renege atlas for bb

[surreal sun]

anyone checked out algomonster? it looks pretty good

[surreal sun]

sounds good, think I'm gonna grind the 150

[meager moss]

that's the best way to start imo. you can try doing all the easy questions in order, then medium, then hard.. or you can go by section and do all the array questions, and etc..

[cobalt siren]

better pay for nyc

[dusty mauve]

how much is atlas ?

[dense cloud]

no idts, u prob have to switch to return internship and not ng

[cobalt siren]

120k base, 40k stock 10k sign on, bb is 155k base 17k bonus 10k relocation

i prefer more cash

[dusty mauve]

ic fair enough

[cobalt siren]

also atlassian might not be as safe, their stock dropped almost 50% in like 2 days

[deep glen]

Any amazon wl’d ngs here

[lament summit]

atlas seattle?

[cobalt siren]

nyc

[lament summit]

wtf

[inner rivet]

I can request an internship with google instead of new grad? oh that might be a good idea

[lament summit]

atlas pays that low?

[cobalt siren]

but same tc for seattle

[lament summit]

damn

[cobalt siren]

yeah the highest salary is only for sf

[lament summit]

did u try nego

[cobalt siren]

it's not bad but could be more competitive

for nyc

should definitely be the same band as sf

[lament summit]

u alr signed right

[cobalt siren]

yeah

[lament summit]

damn u couldve nego atlas using bb

[cobalt siren]

probably gonna renege for bb

[lament summit]

then bb using nego'd atlas

[dusty mauve]

honestly you could accept both 🥱

[cobalt siren]

atlassian isn't negotiating

[lament summit]

wtf

[eternal mortar]

work both at the same time

[lament summit]

170k tc

in nyc

[cobalt siren]

i prefer cash

[lament summit]

for a company that ppl say is better than amazon

💤

[cobalt siren]

im gonna be traveling a lot so all cash would be better

[dense cloud]

oh wait ure not an intern, i think u should check with them. all i know is for interns if u delay ur grad u will have to go for return intern

[jade solar]

Atlas has less TC, but probably better in everything else

[lament summit]

how so

i know someone who worked at atlas and amazon

and said amazon was way better

[cobalt siren]

atlas generally has much better wlb

[dusty mauve]

atlas is known to be a tech company bb is not

[lament summit]

amazon vs atlas

[jade solar]

I mean it might be team-dependent, but Amazon has a low reputation for a reason

[lament summit]

not bb

[cobalt siren]

idk if work is as interesting as amazon tho

[dusty mauve]

i think it has better resume value among big tech

[lament summit]

i worked at amazon

i worked 25 hrs a week

[lament summit]

cuz its easy to get in

[sage sluice]

generally

[cobalt siren]

ig what I meant is that amazon has more wlb horrible teams

unless im mistaken

[dusty mauve]

oh i was comparing atlas to bc

bb

[lament summit]

bb >> atlas and amazon

[cobalt siren]

i think bb name is better

[dusty mauve]

cuz that’s what flygod is debating between

[solemn crag]

duolingo final is 4hrs? 🥲

[lament summit]

yeah

bb names way better

harder to get into bb than atlas

bb pays better

cooler product

[cobalt siren]

i accepted atlas quicker cause I wanted to be remote to stay with gf

[lament summit]

do u really want to work on jira lmao

[dusty mauve]

older tech is the issue

[cobalt siren]

but i dont think i can stomach staying in the midwest

for much longer

[marsh sand]

guys is HRT OA auto?

[lament summit]

yes

[timber rock]

ye

[marsh sand]

okok

[lament summit]

gl

they rej me

with 2 big N internships + 826

[marsh sand]

oh imma reapply next year

im failing oa this year but trying to get a feel for it

[jaunty basalt]

You can’t work on JIRA if ur not in the right time zones

Also there weren’t any JIRA teams on the flip book or pdf

[jaunty basalt]

So I just looked at my Atlassian offer and it was like 118 base, 150/4, 25k sign on

[cobalt siren]

looks like they decreased sign on by 10k this year (i was wrong its 15k)

[old vector]

atlassian nyc is 183k tc

[jaunty basalt]

Yeah about that

[old vector]

119.5 base
37.5 stock/year
15k sign on
11.95 annual bonus

[jaunty basalt]

Cuz I rounded up the base is 117,900

This last year for me

Oh yeah 10% bonus

[west egret]

@old vector are you going to atlassian?

[old vector]

yes just signed

[west egret]

Everyone going to NYC

[old vector]

trying to work in trello

dream to go to nyc is fulfilled tho

[jaunty basalt]

Yeah trello is good, they have good mobile teams

Wait since ur here

Did ur teams pdf or flipbook have JIRA?

[west egret]

Does atlassian have free food?

I’m still sad BB doesn’t have lunch anymore

[bronze nymph]

i really don't think this is true, i got offers from both so i guess i might be biased somehow

[old vector]

breakfast, lunch, snacks, beeer

[jaunty basalt]

Mine did not and neither did flygod

Mine is last year flygod is this year

[old vector]

u got 7 mins im in bloomberg final rn

[jaunty basalt]

I don’t have dms on

[old vector]

dm me then

[jaunty basalt]

I can’t lol

Do u also have them off

I’ll just add you

[old vector]

yes

i also would take atlassian over BB

skills more transferable

and better culture overall

my first interviewer looked miserable in my interview

[jaunty basalt]

I don’t think you can go wrong with either

[bronze nymph]

i agree, i think it just comes down to preference

[jaunty basalt]

I didn’t want remote and I didn’t want to move for Apple msft etc

So I went with bb

[old vector]

thats fair

nyc is cool

nyc > sf

[jaunty basalt]

Also no JIRA

Like bro apparently it’s Australia only

[west egret]

Bay can be dirty

[old vector]

thats every city tho

[jaunty basalt]

I mean nyc has dirty too

[old vector]

what offers u got

[west egret]

Workday and Bloomberg

[old vector]

very nice

we all gonna be in nyc bois

[west egret]

Going for NYC though so….

[jaunty basalt]

I wanted c++ too

Atlassian is dope for mobile

No question

[west egret]

How often do you come across literal human feces though?

[old vector]

trello has mobile team using swift so may try that too for fun

[jaunty basalt]

Bro I don’t analyze shit on the ground

[west egret]

Okay just feces in general

[jaunty basalt]

I know a fine man that worked on a team like that

[solemn crag]

It's been 5 years since my last trip to nyc

[jaunty basalt]

Very handsome

[late kestrel]

this guy scoutin for poop

[solemn crag]

Back then it was fine

[jaunty basalt]

Ikr

[west egret]

Came across too much shit exploring SF lol

[jaunty basalt]

Poo is poo

[old vector]

tf bro i barely even saw any

maybe like 3 times

u be looking at the ground too much

[west egret]

Depends on where you go lol

[old vector]

which parts lol

[late kestrel]

maybe stay away from poo alley next time

[old vector]

quite a few nudists by my area tho

[west egret]

Near union square and Richmond

[old vector]

interesting

[west egret]

Also I’m just talking about stuff directly in the path of where I’m walking

I’m not scouting out a 10 foot radius or anything

[old vector]

i commuted to oakland for work

super cool commute tho

[west egret]

Oakland lmao

I just saw one part of it taking Bart from Pleasanton to SF

[obsidian dome]

have a 2 hours phone soon. Can I dm to ask some quick question?

[lone rapids]

Is palantir decomp not like traditional system design?

[winter thistle]

not exactly, it's a more open ended question that's purposefully ambiguous. Implementation is easier tho, don't have to go too deep into scale

(that's from my exp)

[glass knoll]

is there any coding involved in palantir's decomp?

or just high level description

[split plaza]

far easier imo

[devout plume]

got rejected and engineering hiring manager said i "seem more interested in machine learning and that's not what we do here"

I didn't even mention ml in the interview, but both my resume projects are ml. is this worth changing my resume for?

i thought resume projects were more proof that you can program and less you know how to work with certain techs

[rustic vessel]

You got feedback?

[devout plume]

got it from the hr person after she passed my resume and her comments over

[rustic vessel]

All I got was this

While the interviewing team was impressed with your skills and enjoyed getting to know you, after a careful review we have determined that we do not have a position that is a strong match for your qualifications at this time.

[teal jackal]

anyone know what to do if bloomberg ghosted after phone interview(i had an actual interview, but never heard back from my outcome and its been 2 weeks)

i emailed my recruiting contact

no response today

[dusty mauve]

i gave up on bb

i followed up and no response

[teal jackal]

[dusty mauve]

today marks 3 weeks since my phone

[teal jackal]

so i guess ill consider it hopeless

[glass knoll]

BB ghosts me for a month now

what's funny is the interviewer said my feedback would be available in two days

it never came 😦

[sage sluice]

they took a bit over 2 weeks to get back to me, theyre super backlogged

[vestal pelican]

SF is so trash

The golden gate park is the only good area

[teal jackal]

my interviewer said "you should expect next steps soon"

[winter loom]

anyone interning at amazon rn?

[glass knoll]

soon = never 😄

[old smelt]

Bloomberg has hired more than any other company this year (besides Amazon), they're probably very backed up with scheduling and moving candidates through the pipeline

[teal jackal]

i saw someone take phone on 10/21, got onsite invite on 10/26

which makes me sussy

[glass knoll]

I guess it depends on your recruiter too

[old smelt]

Yea some recruiters are likely busier than others

[glass knoll]

And whether that person has offer deadlines

I don't have any

[winter thistle]

Wtf they told you that after hm?

[old smelt]

You could just lie about offer deadlines

[teal jackal]

thats a good point

theres a lot of facttors

[winter thistle]

That sucks :/

[lament summit]

bb recruit sucks

i did bb phone 10/11 aced it

still no response

[teal jackal]

honestly yeah bloomberg is just so backed up that theyre probably getting confused internally

like the timings make no sense

[glass knoll]

i did on oct 13

got both questions, also didn't hear back

[lament summit]

same

[teal jackal]

same

[lament summit]

my interviewer literally said

"you aced it"

lmao

[dense seal]

didnt u get 2 sum

[teal jackal]

i had to ask my interviewer how to write a class in python, but i was able to handle both qs optimally

[lament summit]

that was my first q

my second was a harder one

still p easy

but harder than two sum lol

[dense seal]

i see makes sense

[late kestrel]

its crazy though that bb has gotten thru a lot more ppl. zon has 24 rejected atm and bb has 71 rejected with similar offer stats

• there were a lot more zon return interns

[ebon quiver]

does anyone know how companies give out offers based on interviews? Is it like, they only give offers after interviewing everyone? or is it on a rolling basis?

[old smelt]

Amazon put a bunch of ppl on waitlist. Also ppl tend to not process rejects so I wouldn't pay attention to the numbers too much

[late kestrel]

yeah but its all about percentages. someone is probably equally likely not to process a zon reject vs a bb reject

so you can compare the two. it evens out

[timber rock]

rolling basis usually

[ebon quiver]

@timber rock so as long as someone is qualified they will give em the job.

[timber rock]

as long as u meet their hiring bar ig

[winter loom]

is anyone working at amazon rn

[eager aurora]

nah

[sacred jasper]

has anybody heard of citadel doing an extra technical round after onsite for new grad?

[winter thistle]

ah my bad, for implementation I meant coming up with a design and explaining it. Tried to say that there are two parts, going through your ideas and then going through the components and shhit

I got asked to code a bit tho

and went through a couple sql queries + rest api endpoints

[ebon quiver]

@queen valve oh I see

the problem is that if you are asking for a expedited process and they do stack rank it's bad right

it's a startup

cuz i once interviewed with one company

I Def passed the hiring bar but they wanted to interview someone else before making a decision

and I couldn't wait

so they rejected me for that reason

[lilac narwhal]

Is there two rounds after the bloomberg on site, or is it like one round? I remember hearing both a HR and Manager

[muted girder]

after HR round are you supposed to schedule the EM round?

for bloomberg

[winter thistle]

you got thisss

[prime palm]

@azure oar

When's your HM for pltr owo

[prime palm]

Did you end up getting HM

[winter thistle]

yeah

[ebon quiver]

that is correct

i wanna expedite current processes cuz i have to start planning for my move etc with the company i might renege

thats exactly what was thinking. maybe i say i have an offer deadline but i dont share when it is. i just try and urge them to expedite as much as they can

so that way they are expediting as much as they are comfortable doing without affecting my chances

yeah but in this case im not lying that i need the decision expedited cuz i really do

yeah that is a good one. if they say something insane that is past how long im willing to wait then what shall i do

also should i tell them who else i have an offer with.. im a little wary this time cuz ima have to renege my current offer which i doubt they will be able to figure out but idk what do u think

[teal jackal]

i have no leverage to expedite any interviews

seems like you either have an offer, or they tell you to fuck off and "wait"

[ebon quiver]

there is no real reason to unless u do have a deadline somehow

[teal jackal]

yeah p much

ill probably die ghosted

graduate ghosted, job hop ghosted, retire ghosted, die ghosted

Luhmao

[ebon quiver]

ok so ur saying i shouldnt just give a date. even though i kinda have one for myself

yeah this totally makes sense. my deadline is by the end of this week so not too tough to hit i feel like

so yeah let me ask them when they expect

and then ill just say i would appreciate a response by the end of the week.

the sooner the better kinda thing

should i say -- i can try and get some more time (or is there no point in doing this @queen valve ) Maybe in the case they feel like they cant a decision out by then, they may not just reject me point blank lol

thanks ❤️

[native lantern]

anybody who hasn’t heard from ramp either way (phone or reject)?

[ebon quiver]

i got rejected

[native lantern]

what do you mean p sure

[zenith kindle]

I got 4 flags and haven’t heard back at all

Maybe they’re giving phone interviews in waves?

[lament summit]

Probably resume rj?

[zenith kindle]

Hopefully not I was at google this summer lol

[lone rapids]

So no load balancers no sql vs nosql?

[lament summit]

Step?

These days 1 big N ain’t enough sadly

[zenith kindle]

Yeah tbf you never know in this recruiting cycle lmao

[rustic vessel]

I got resume rj by ramp

[native lantern]

[ebon quiver]

[lament summit]

Yes

Don’t do it

[ebon quiver]

[lament summit]

low pay shitty wlb

cool product tho

[ebon quiver]

really i thought the wlb is cool

[ebon quiver]

yeah this is the thing.

[tardy geode]

i straight up couldn't solve 3 easy problems

today

what has life come to

[whole berry]

i have those moments too

maintaining good sleep, good diet and proper breaks and exercise is key for maximum TC

[elder hound]

Double reject today. Lfg 💪💪💪

[vestal pelican]

I did this with tesla and got rejected right away haha

Tbf they would have to fit in 3 tech interviews and a really long final round within 2wks

[winged igloo]

[lament summit]

[solemn crag]

[ebon quiver]

negative. just wanted to plan

[uncut umbra]

did anyone else get the visa email?

I applied on both accounts and I'm basically at the final on one, but on the other I got an email that they've stopped pursuing candidates

does that mean headcount is filled or that they're not accepting anyone new into the pipeline

i.e. if I have my final I'm chilling

[orchid aspen]

what is the palantir newgrad process? And anyone that has been thru the pipeline, how long was the time between karat and getting offer?

I finished my Roblox VO but I’m so stressed now

Waiting for a decision is the worst

[lone rapids]

In the Palantir Decomp, If I say NoSQL and don't know the query commands for it, is it fine to just give them pseudo commands?

[ebon quiver]

just apply and dont hope for anything. that way if u dont hear back who cares

[quaint spoke]

i need some hope tho 😦

[ebon quiver]

srry bud

[timber rock]

If the posting is still up then they will probably still look at your app

[quaint spoke]

fair point

[chilly burrow]

Yeah

I think they pay like 120k base?

[torn stone]

Anyone interviewed with eBay today? One of their slots for virtual onsite was today

[marsh sand]

Is anyone here non-US and applying to US roles?

I was wondering if they just straight-up resume reject you

[sonic coral]

Some companies that don’t sponsor will reject straight away

[somber oyster]

Does anyone had a ASML final round before?

[hard cobalt]

In some companies, i got rejected as soon as i filled the application. (because i needed a sponsorship in the future. )

[marsh sand]

ahahahaha happened to me with microsoft redmond last year

[uneven fulcrum]

Any stuck waiting after Bloomberg VO? My recruiter said she’ll schedule HR round, she still hasn’t

[marsh sand]

I have meta + amazon in resume too lmaooo

H1B must be impossible if you're non-/us

Anyone else fucked their GPA studying leetcode?

[hard cobalt]

yes. A lot of small companies are not sponsoring. Even big ones like Atlassian

[marsh sand]

big yikes; guess i'll have to do internal transfer out from london

assuming I get a job this season

did you end up getting a US offer?

Are you UK by any chance

Oh wow you're a real G

what does sponsorship look like for you? H1-B is random isn't it

Wait you signed HRT right

[slender apex]

Does anyone know if amazon is still hiring data engineers

[lilac narwhal]

Does anyone know what they ask in Bloomberg HR+SeniorEngineer round

server fighting over (og) hachiyuki's brain cells, digitized colorized

[polar quail]

I have but for interns, so its not exactly the same

[slender apex]

ahh ok ok

do u mind if i ask some questions regardless?

[polar quail]

ye sure!

[tardy geode]

my bloomberg portal says no action required ( i was done with phone yesterday)

is that normal?

@woven folio does your say the same too , can you check and let me know bro?

[cyan lance]

Has anyone interviewed with Cisco before? NG SE role

[tardy geode]

you bs or ms?

thanks for confirming

sending prayge for meta folks for tomorrow

[earnest tiger]

any interview advice for five ring's trading operation engineer?

[slender apex]

whats happening at meta tmrw?

[deep glen]

The layoffs are tmr?

[wind drum]

prob worth knowing ur sys admin type stuff

[slender apex]

oh damn

[tardy geode]

layoffs

[slender apex]

prayge prayge

[tardy geode]

fk this economy

by now we would have gotten atleast 4-5 offers

my friend is shitting bricks , bro wouldn't be able to sleep until tomorrow

he joined meta like 10 months back

[earnest tiger]

this is my first time hearing this term sys admin type

[wind drum]

it looks like a pretty operations/sys admin type position

so knowing ur way around linux is key

[torn stone]

anyone did ebay VO today?

[white linden]

Is anyone still waiting for Roblox new grad offers?

[void badge]

What kind of TC are you guys getting offered as a new grad right now with the current economic climate of layoffs and such?

[rustic vessel]

That’s a very broad question. TC varies a lot between location.

[void badge]

I guess that's true. I should have phrased my question a bit differently

[chilly burrow]

Unicorns still pay well imo

[rustic vessel]

I love my monopoly money

[void badge]

I figured there would be more responses with "realistic" salaries than the six figure offers that are a bit more of a reach currently

meaning?

[rustic vessel]

This discord is biased towards high performers

[void badge]

Do you think most people in this Discord group attend prestigious unis?

[rustic vessel]

Some yes, I think the main difference between this discord and normal cs majors is that people that joined care a lot more about career than the average cs major.

[void badge]

That's comforting to know. When I use this or the CSMajors Discord I usually assume most go to really good schools based on the offers and interviews people have landed. Maybe it's because I'm targeting PM and not SWE roles, but interviewing and applying to internships and new grad roles has been brutal over the last year. Dating back to June/July 2021 I've probably applied to 1,500-1,700 total postings between internships and new grad.

[rustic vessel]

You sure it’s not your resume that’s the problem? 1500 seems a bit much

[void badge]

800 were to land a first internship, then another 400 to land the second, then another 300-400 for new grad

[lapis cove]

^

are you passing the interviews you get?

[void badge]

Yeah the interviews are usually easy tbh

I haven't had an interview that I didn't end up with an offer

I just think hundreds if not thousands are applying for the same roles

I go to a really small school

[rustic vessel]

That amount of apps is mind boggling to me

[lapis cove]

yea im curious about your resume tbh, but also im sure the market for PM is super competitive

way fewer spots and they're just as hot

[chilly burrow]

It took me 300-400 for my first internship

And I had a shit resume

100-200 fkr my 2nd

100ish for new grad dis yr

I go to a shit school

[void badge]

Yes, and I made alterations based on feedback and got better results afterwards. I think it's just a role issue combined w/ tightening job situation

I should change my projects section to reflect PM centric projects and not programming projects possibly though based on recent interview questions

[chilly burrow]

Oh this is for PM

Idk anything about PM roles tbh

So mayb dat number is normal ?

[void badge]

Oh yes I should clarify that moreso, but recruiting is VERY similar to SWE which is why I'm on here

when I applied to SWE internships, assessments were auto-distributed to my email

I assume that's the case still and if you pass you move on to phone screen?

With me, if you reach phone screen at all it's because you passed resume screening

[rustic vessel]

Less so this year, but a lot of the time they resume screen after

[void badge]

feel like assessments help a lot in that regard

[void badge]

That's nice

[rustic vessel]

It’s not nice

Now it’s 2 steps

Oa -> resume screen

[void badge]

Shouldn't OA stack things in your favor if you kill it?

despite the resume

[lapis cove]

eh

more of a barrier to entry tbh

[void badge]

I could see that too

certain schools could carry someone and be a barrier of entry for others

What would you guys say is a good salary coming out of CS?

TC or base?

WTF 500K new grad??

[late kestrel]

more depends on where you are

your average ng is probably graduating from an average school in a lcol/mcol area making 70k-90k

[livid horizon]

https://www.protocol.com/amp/salesforce-major-layoffs-starboard-2658582958

[void badge]

yeah most people in my grad class or the one before me took offers in the 70s except one who took Lyft for like 200K

Jesus.

yeah that's why I'm pivoting towards product -- because I understand programming enough to tell you what's going on, but not enough to do it myself w/out skeleton code

I can, but I have a difficult time

that's fair, but you also have to keep your Leetcode skills sharp every time you want to change companies, no?

that's harder to do as you get older

[primal pike]

leetcode 2.0

[tardy geode]

i still poop at two pointers how do i improve

[dusty mauve]

@tardy geode https://leetcode.com/tag/two-pointers/ do all of them 😀

[tribal moss]

does anyone know what karat is?

is it like a phone interview with a live person?

[dusty mauve]

yes

they ask you leetcode style coding questions

and time complexity analysis questions

[tribal moss]

ah I see thx

o one more thing is the difficulty like lc mediums?

for duolingo

[vast rock]

For those who had roblox vo how long did it take to get rejected? Or offer?

[lament basin]

bad things

setting alarm to 3am

to check da email

[fading kelp]

Generally when ng recruiting begins

[dusty mauve]

yea

[slender apex]

new grad recruiting? since like a few months ago?

[lapis cove]

full 2 weeks for offer

[vast rock]

Dam wow

[timber rock]

august/september

[marsh sand]

Is karat all tagged?

[rustic vessel]

Gg meta 13%

[wary quest]

Why does all this layoff shits happening all at the same time. It does feel like a pre-planned thing

[rain patio]

when one company does it, other companies think they can too

[late kestrel]

well uh no... economy is doing bad, especially in tech... so companies do layoffs

[snow blade]

Did anyone do Palantir OA like before the Karat?

[fringe egret]

Do rejections over call usually happen on a phone call or zoom ?

[willow pulsar]

Rejections usually come via email. If on the rare chance by call, it will be by phone. I've never heard of a rejection on a video call.

[tardy geode]

not in a row tho , any list you would recommend?

[sage skiff]

If you do superdays for JP Morgan they will call you to personally reject you

Same with deloitte

[fringe egret]

phone or zoom?

[sharp plume]

this is not true for everyone lol

[fringe egret]

rejections over zoom is just ruthless 😣

[sharp plume]

J.P. Morgan ghosted my friend after his super day and he had to hound them for a response

[sage skiff]

By phone

bruh they did it to me for all 4 times for the 2 years I applied

[autumn ridge]

Bro what is going on with Flexport that is making them send out email offers without official offer letters. I feel like some fuckery is going on

[sage skiff]

Atp I was like I don’t even wanna apply 💀

[uncut umbra]

there was that one fucking startup right around covid whose ceo got all the people he wanted to fire in a zoom call and then one by one they got kicked out as they lost their credentials

also jesus fucking christ

new grads getting hit by meta's bullshit? that's insane

[sage skiff]

And they answer the call so enthusiastically then change their tone as soon as they say unfortunately we can’t extend an offer

😵‍💫

[sage skiff]

Menace

[solemn notch]

U still haven’t got offer letter?

[ebon quiver]

i kinda agree. very peculiar

they gonna rescind half these offers 💀

[sonic coral]

Wasn’t even a startup it was better.com which was basically a small tech company at the time

[uncut umbra]

no I'm talking about from back in 2020

https://dot.la/bird-layoffs-meeting-story-2645612465.html

I knew it was a fucking bird-related company name, I didn't know it was actually named bird

[sonic coral]

Ah so there was ANOTHER ceo that pulled that shit lmao

[uncut umbra]

but yeah this is also fucked

of course, these pieces of shit don't care about you

[winter thistle]

whats yalls opinion on (hypothetically, not there yet lmao) having pltr in your resume? Can the controversies impact negatively or no?

[uncut umbra]

honestly idt it's in any way a bad look

meta, amazon have had lots of controversies too

[sonic coral]

I mean what else are you gonna put on it

[uncut umbra]

if they were viewed negatively the market would reflect that

negatively based off of the controversies, that is

if the company is still doing well, and you don't mind working for that kind of a company, you do you

[sonic coral]

You need to show what your experience is and when you’re starting off any experience is better than no exp

And palantir is def a good company to work at

[uncut umbra]

and make sure you put it on your resume ofc, don't have a gap there because you worked at palantir

[winter thistle]

I see I see thanks

I get the any experience is better than no exp, but I'm not really sure what pltr's reputation is and if for example some people might see that in your resume and say wow I'm not hiring them or whatever

I also get that they are pretty selective for their engineers (right?) so that is gotta be positive for sure

[uncut umbra]

palantir is a good company

[snow blade]

I’m pretty sure they’re pretty prestigious and that’s generally a good look

[uncut umbra]

put that you worked there on your resume

very low odds a recruiter is going to shit on you for working at palantir

[jaunty basalt]

If they shit on you then u don’t want to work there anyways

[uncut umbra]

this too

[jaunty basalt]

Like one IC cant be the entire company

[sonic coral]

Palantir is known for strong engineering

[winter thistle]

thanks for the advice yall I appreciate it

[snow blade]

@uncut umbra you have an offer from them right? Or am I thinking of someone else

[uncut umbra]

someone else lol

I got onsite soon tho

[ebon quiver]

i cri every tim

🥹

[snow blade]

Ooh right right

[static moth]

@nocturne oriole i hope u didn't get affected by the layoffs today homie 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[snow blade]

If you got any tips for the OA lmk

I didn’t know they even did one before Karat lol

[ivory stratus]

I feel for those meta employees

Damn

Imagine waking up and being like “hey yo sorry pack your stuff and get out”

[nocturne oriole]

I am safe

[static moth]

LETS GO

[nocturne oriole]

[uncut umbra]

no clue wtf the palantir oa is

[lament summit]

Pog

Were any swes that had a team even affected

[livid yew]

[nocturne oriole]

Yes quite a few SWEs were laid off

Based on personal random sampling, most teams lost 1 or 2

[tardy geode]

i need mental strength for Q1

[autumn ridge]

I emailed recruiter I withdrew because I accepted a different offer. But I did my final on 10/17 and told them about my 10/28 deadline on like 10/04 and they still couldn't get me an offer letter before my deadline and the recruiter sent me an email with the info but it's just weird that they aren't giving out actual offer letters. Like their has to be a reason I just have no idea what it could be

[deep glen]

q1 looking rough fr

tech winter is coming

[compact vortex]

Amazon laid off it’s entire robotics division??????

[grizzled bronze]

Rumor or conirmed?

[compact vortex]

Confirmed

LinkedIn post

Jaime Zhang

[vague kraken]

How many people is that?

[compact vortex]

I wonder if this is the Amazon robotics subsidiary or if it’s just some robotics group within amazon

[honest sundial]

It's a team within AR

Not the entire subsidiary

[compact vortex]

Ohhh ok

Well rip

Amazon definitely staying quiet

[wheat seal]

Ur safe kirb?

[nocturne oriole]

yes

[lament summit]

old news

this was back in early oct

but he posted late

[wheat seal]

Oh nice

[compact vortex]

Ohhhh

[lament summit]

and it wasnt kept quiet

this was all part of this

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-10-06/amazon-abandons-autonomous-home-delivery-robot-in-latest-cut?leadSource=uverify wall

[wheat seal]

Meta should be safe then for at least a year?

[nocturne oriole]

nobody knows tbh

[proper dawn]

They just laid of 11000 ppl

How are they safe

[west egret]

Nowhere is safe

[proper dawn]

Yeah pretty much

[west egret]

If we knew what was safe in the market, we’d day trade instead of coding

[proper dawn]

Lmfao true

[ivory stratus]

But you need money to day trade

[grizzled bronze]

The only safe places are where @pulsar mural works or has a return offer. Lockheed Martin and American Express. Yahkuna knew recession was coming and avoided FAANG. 🧠

[proper dawn]

I have no choice but to take the one offer I have

[west egret]

@pulsar mural knew the truth all along and hid it from us. They have a target on them now.

[lament summit]

at least u have an offer

[proper dawn]

True

[lament summit]

are u gonna advertise ur blog post

[west egret]

layoffs.fyi

[lament summit]

private dm them, hey check out this cool blog post

[grizzled bronze]

Anyone know if fryingpan is safe from Meta layoffs? He didn't even start Bootcamp yet, got a new grad return conversion offer after summer internship

[valid wing]

wait for his youtube vid

:((

[timber rock]

yea I guess we gotta wait lol

[valid wing]

he was GE but since bootcampers got axed

wouldn't be suprised for a rescind

[tardy geode]

my friend who had got a return offer from meta and has his joining in feb , his team's 2 people were laid off

[valid wing]

wait why would they lay people off

and not rescind

?

[tardy geode]

they overhired

at a rapid scale

[grizzled bronze]

Worse case scenario he had a Coinbase new grad return offer, but who knows about that too

[lilac narwhal]

Is it bad to tell a company where else you are interviewing and then name drop?

[tardy geode]

if they ask you straigtup tell em no

[timber rock]

he had a bloomberg interview this week as well, not sure if it was final

[tardy geode]

that's what i do , i say like this is the first interview i have got this rec season

[tardy geode]

i had too , crushed it . no response yet

[lilac narwhal]

Ooo okok thanks will keep thy in mind

[grizzled bronze]

Depends. Some companies will be like "oh he's interviewing at Google, let's just drop him".

[valid wing]

hope he got citadel

[timber rock]

he didnt

[tardy geode]

god bless you @nocturne oriole

[sharp stream]

@jaunty basalt How did 1hr coding round after the hacker rank go?

At atlassian, should I just expect a medium leetcode of some sort

[eternal mortar]

which is better, Veeva or SAP

assuming similar pay

[autumn ridge]

I think it's basically wash IMO both are enterprise focused tech Veeva seems to have better reviews on Blind 3.9 vs 3.3 for SAP

[jaunty basalt]

Wtf I was 2022, I had system design phone then a behavioral phone before the on-site

[lilac siren]

[sharp stream]

Oh shit I think I went real far back in the messages lol

Nvm haha

It’s not the same as that anymore

[jaunty basalt]

Yeah U have dsa instead

Which is way easier

[lament summit]

I disagree

Sys design is way easier than dsa

Dsa takes so much more time to prep

[tardy geode]

i resonate with this , 💯

[valid wing]

which reddit post is this?

[jaunty basalt]

Did you do Atlassian process

I’m not talking about in general

I had to do both

And the the dsa part are mediums and some ppl get tagged which for them is a very short list

Also it’s easier cuz it’s only dsa

Not dsa and system design for more rounds

As in the process got shortened

Instead of two separate system design and bahavioral phone screens and another system design round on the on-site it got swapped out with a single dsa phone interview

[tardy geode]

my linkedin is filled only with layoffs , not only meta but others too

this makes me so so anxious for the upcoming year

[uncut umbra]

twitter for the past few days, meta this morning, def a lot of lyft in there too

[young peak]

One thing I'm starting to hate is people telling others to stop doomscrolling

Like yes we know thats good general advice but when the entirety of LinkedIn, Blind, Reddit, Twitter and media are all about layoffs wtf do you do

And when you go offline, people are talking about the same shit

It's a highly relevant situation that can instantly become you at any moment

[nocturne oriole]

For the record, not to anybody here. If a homie says “bro what if get laid off”

Do not say “no worries you will be fine.” Do not ever. You cannot predict the future.

[lilac locust]

bb just emailed me telling me no interviewer available and need to rescheudle

why waz

[sudden depot]

how many coding questions do u usually do with bloomberg phone interview?

[lilac locust]

why is everyone waz

[twilit wasp]

i did one, gave O(1) time solution and did the extensions and engineer seems happy

rejected the next day

[fresh lagoon]

i am waz

[twilit wasp]

so i guess it should be more than 1 question for bb phone interview?

[lapis cove]

true tell them they’re fucked and to start applying to mcdonalds

[fresh lagoon]

waz bb for cancel

[lilac locust]

wat

[low scroll]

my gpa getting lower and lower each semester i job hunt

[junior scarab]

Same thing in my case, answered question in most optimal time, answered follow ups, felt like I had a good vibe going with interviewer, and rejected 2 days later

[young peak]

I'd say it doesn't matter but markets so fucking unpredictable that I think it wouldn't hurt to burn the midnight oil a little more to keep it up

Yeah but all I'm saying is things have wildly fluctuated so much that signals that previously weren't strong might become strong

[winter widget]

Lol. Same. At least they didn't let me show up and ghost me

[lilac locust]

oh

[tardy geode]

2 or 1 depends , my interviewer asked me a lot of followups and gave me 3 test cases . basically if your interviewer goes in depth of the problem then its 1

and he was like i wanna know your thought process don't really care about the code

BUT

if your interviewer is like straight up wants code and shiz then 2

and no in depth quest

[young peak]

A common trend among Bloomberg devs is that they layer one question. It starts off easy/simple then the complexity evolves over each iteration. I liked it a lot tbh

[tardy geode]

yes this

[young peak]

Even my EM meeting was talking about an OOD

we layered one problem by introducing different structures, potential cliffs etc

[tardy geode]

mine gave me 3 examples and asked me how many X do you see(i don't wanna reveal the quest here) and then he asked my approach , was pretty cool with it he liked it and then said if you want to code it out feel free . then while coding he told me think out loud and tell which step does what i told him eveyrthing then he was going through the code and asked me followups then in the end tc sc and questions for them

[rain patio]

Did anyone get into SEA83 AMZ Triumph West?

[fossil jewel]

my bloomberg phone was 1 reg LC and 1 OOD

both q's were easy

my vo was 4 LC q's, 2 per each

[lone rapids]

Just did 1 round of palantir learning

My chances are looking slim

[tardy geode]

mine was a med

[dusky plover]

how is palantir still hiring lmao

[wind drum]

they are really picky lol

[lilac narwhal]

Does palantir have a round after decomp + learning round?

[wind drum]

yeah hm round

but you can also get technical as part of it

[lilac narwhal]

So the hiring manager is a technical Interveiwer? Or is it like a engineer?

[wind drum]

it's the hiring manager yeah

[lilac narwhal]

Is that like an hour?

[surreal prairie]

got to final with just 1 + follow ups

[white escarp]

sentry pause hiring?

[surreal prairie]

yeah it's a senior engineer i think

[white escarp]

👀

[spice rock]

imc stopped hiring wtffff

[white escarp]

econ fked

😮

[surreal prairie]

got the same rejection email for 1 chicago position 3 times

[spice rock]

guess I'll really be jobless and homeless next year 🥲

[lone rapids]

Anyone with mediocre VO make to the HM?

For palantir

[prime palm]

Why slim?

[prime palm]

Are you on final (hiring manager) or VO (decomp learning)?

[lilac narwhal]

VO decomp learning

[surreal prairie]

I thought 1 decomp + learning was standard

[prime palm]

yeah after this you got one more round

1 hr hiring manager chat

[lone rapids]

Yea im saying im not even gonna make to hm

[prime palm]

Well, you only took your learning

Just do well in the decomp

[lone rapids]

Yea.

When do they reach back with results?

[primal pike]

just got offered a fed position
but theyre asking for proof returning as student in September. but I'll probably graduate by then. Idk if to lie or what

[young peak]

Just say you intend to return

Doesn't mean that's how it'll play out

[prime palm]

it's variable

some people hear back same day and some people hear back after a week

[frank wedge]

that pfp

[rain patio]

In the process of negotiating my offer rn

Got the phone call with the offer details but salary seems a bit low

[young peak]

Bro already had access to a nuke before his fed position lmfao

[lone rapids]

Ok i think the decomp round went well but who knwos

About to be rejected since they too picky

[uncut umbra]

anyone heard anything about being a technical sales engineer at IBM?

[lilac narwhal]

Does anyone have good resources about offer negotiations?

[dusty mauve]

why?

[lone rapids]

Learning was not good

[dusty mauve]

what happened

[whole berry]

:((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

[dusty mauve]

my lerning was kinda iffy too

i got the answer the interviewer wanted only with like 5 minutes left

[nocturne oriole]

I got redfin offer last year, signed it
recruiter left to Meta before I started
months later I got Meta and reneged redfin
now this same recruiter got laid off at Meta

[whole berry]

are you still at meta

[dusty mauve]

also hachi i dm'd u

[nocturne oriole]

yeah, and now i actually wanna comment on this person's linkedin post

but it would be weird

[lone rapids]

I don't know if the ans what he wanted is the one I gave him. It improved the run time but not that much ig. Also I was making implementation mistakes and he was correcting it and then I should have better read the documentation.

[whole berry]

do it

why be afraid

[nocturne oriole]

yeah tbh they shouldn't give a damn cuz i actually reneged after they left redfin, so i never affected them negatively

[rapid lotus]

anyone take the Epic Systems OA?

[thick grail]

will ur palantir recruiter always email you to set up a call after the karat interviewer?

[severe pendant]

Anyone in LA!

[robust kettle]

ya it was a pain

did the OA then phone screen, got rejected after probably cause of the OA

[rapid lotus]

how were the OA questions?

anything I should specifically look into

[rapid lotus]

4 hours O_O

[torn stone]

Anyone recently did eBay VO?

[robust kettle]

it contained like 4 medium leetcode ish questions, you essentially code in a text editor with no way to run or test

[rapid lotus]

oh so theyre mostly looking for logic > compilation

[robust kettle]

i spent 2-3 hrs on the whole test, a whole lot of logic stuff, a made-up programming language that was really not worded clearly imo

ya presumably

idk i failed it i guess lol

i really didn't expect it or prepare, found some decent reddit threads after explaining it better

[gleaming fable]

I feel ya though it still sucks for them

we clown on recruiters but it sucks to be laid off no matter what the job

[rapid lotus]

wanna link me it?

[robust kettle]

didn't save any links but just found these in my history at least https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/epic-systems-interview-experience-off-campus/ https://www.reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions/comments/dgiw2s/yet_another_epic_systems_skills_assessment_thread/

my assessment wasn't proctored by anyone but you're not supposed to leave your computer while you're taking the individual test parts

[rapid lotus]

thanks

[solemn tinsel]

anyone have any advice for Duolingo final?

[coarse kraken]

How long does Circle take to give a decision?

[gleaming sky]

how was your onsite? seems like a long day lol

[azure zephyr]

epic pays their new grads 110k in WI tho, which is wild

[rough ruin]

If you can sit through those assessment you deserve 110k

[west egret]

Prob the worst OA I’ve ever taken

[coarse charm]

bombed an onsite interview on the easiest question ever

all the other rounds went really well fml

[grizzled bronze]

It's a wild company to work for too

[rapid lotus]

whatd they give you?

[coarse charm]

I signed a NDA so I can't say unfortunately

[rapid lotus]

ah ok

[coarse charm]

but think easy med

difficulty

[rapid lotus]

hopefully the OA isnt too strict esp with the no compiler thing

[gleaming sky]

for palantir has anybody had their learning changed to a technical question?

[gleaming fable]

I feel you bro I choked in my meta phone on an easier lc med

just took the L after lol I didn't even feel bad

[coarse charm]

oof im sorry to hear, gonna just use the L as motivation for future finals 🥹

[lone rapids]

What company?

[coarse charm]

roblox

[lone rapids]

Oh no

But theres 2 tech rounds isnt it?

[coarse charm]

yeah everything else went really well
