I've seen this news but how does it connect to the US government? If Ukraine set up an FTX account to take crypto donations, why would the US govt give them aid through that instead the normal way it does?

^^ to the Rivian/Tesla/Gecko debate

i do have Meta and JPMC on my resume

#

so im not very worried ab getting NG interviews if i do delay grad

#

i guess as an intl student, a FAANG-level company would represent stability in the long term (canada/london offices if H1B fails), as opposed to a series C startup’s stability even if it’s in a stable market sector and offering me a solid NG position

Man it's so surreal to me when people i still am in contact with from my high school talk about tech layoffs, like it's so surreal to me how non software engineers think it's funny that tech is laying off in droves.

#

The disconnect in perspective between different segments of society is surreal and always will be to me.

#

But tbh as much as I'm depressed about potentially having to settle for 5 figures as a new grad, I get that cs majors are hardly an oppressed group to extend empathy to on an absolute level, relative to the average person.

What's better is that this person knew I interned at Workday

teal jackal
#

I mean yeah, but I think there's nothing wrong with wanting to do better than average.
I think there should be a mix of having high standards and being realistic.
If you can't meet your high standards this time, shift the goalpost to achieve it next time and do your best now.

To be fair I'm assuming those type of kids come from well off families. Both my parents are working class. It would be a slap in the face if I ever complained about such a high salary while working a desk job.

so its kind of a slap in the face when u worked 2x as hard as ur non-cs folk and get paid the same rate

# knotty scroll is their TC full?

According to a comment on Blind, the ghosting isn't due to filled HC but because their internal process is shit.

When you sign up to be an interviewer your calendar is immediately filled with interviews. So usually employees ghost by accident or because they can't make it

Medicine has a higher barrier to entry

isnt med school intentionally extremely cutthroat to get into so anyone who actually graduates med school is guaranteed a job

teal jackal
#

People want life to be an uphill trend, it's just hard to swallow the possibility of making less money than one did as an intern

#

jonc did u do internships before?

#

I think ex-faang interns just have inflated expectations, like there is a MASSIVE mental barrier to accepting anything under 150k, especially under 100k

but not to the point where sub-100k is acceptable mentally

so basically I asked for a deadline extension for a company due to other interviews, and my recruiter just ghosted me even after a follow up. I got scared that they might rescind my offer because of this. the deadline was today, so I signed the offer yesterday and it the COO's delegated signer also signed it, so I thought I was fine but still want to check in with my recruiter just in case. sent him an email yesterday saying I've accepted the offer and another email today asking if there are any next steps, but he's still ghosting me. should I still be worried about them rescinding my offer or am I overthinking this

i think you played it right, just sign it for now and renege if you need to

Hi guys,Is it wise to extend your graduation to fall 2023 seeing the current market scenario and layoffs? Btw I am graduating in spring 2023 but I am not getting interviews so am thinking to extend my graduation to fall 2023 hoping that the employment scenario for techies will improve by fall 2023.

I am an international student so if i didn't get a job by Aug,23 i had to leave the country.Extending a degree will give me more time to hunt for jobs and if situation improves I might get a job by the end of fall 23.that's my thought process.
