FTX New grad is out https://rr.noordstar.me/28f559b7
Dis guys bio on Twitter is:
Trafficker in misinformation under the guise of satire
So I wouldn't trust em lmaoo
oh boy fucking seth dillon
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?
how long does the status change on tiktok application from "written test" after already doing the OA test
lol
just say u were thinking about sparse graphs
O(v^2*E) for bellman ford on every source, O(v^3 + E) for floyd warshall
this was me on the 210 midterm a year and a half ago I stg
ooh another cmu person
linear programming š
after this sem I agree
Relax and retire
here's my secret: interview until winter break anyway
When is too late for good new grad positions?
I literally can't find any job good postings in Canada besides Amazon which is frozen for the foreseeable future
Do things typically pick up in January?
Anyone do the First round Walmart yet?
Anyone done last round at American Airlines?
second wave of local and lower valuation employers probably gonna start then
if you want faangmula though, you are on the very late side, but a lot of it is luck anyways
even if you werent late youd still have a tough time
Faang is done now
what do the hackers gain?
Anyone interviewed for Skydio? I have an interview for Autonomy role interview
^^ 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 startupās stability even if itās in a stable market sector and offering me a solid NG position
are you considering uber, doordash, lyft, airbnb, stripe, other unicorns in that? Like how low valuation are we talking?
how many rounds is Bloomberg? I have first video interview with them on Wednesday
also any tips for Palantir decomp?
we need a #palantir-and-bloomberg channel
sheesh, all technical?
Phone -> VO1 -> VO2 -> HR -> EM
First three are LC rounds. EM is behavioral and possibly sys design.
Only Stripe is a unicorn. Also uber and doordash have already opened ng apps.
Also very unlikely Stripe or Lyft will hire new grads imo
eBay opened today, Brex, Doordash
Not many, but they're out there
Also Canada generally opens l8r than the states sk I wouldn't stress 2 much yet
Tc below 150k is when I consider it less prestigious
do they ask about your resume or like "why bloomberg" in the LC rounds?
Possibly for the why BB. They didn't for me. However, they usually started off with the tell me about yourself which is just resume stuff.
I got asked why BB and also about my resume a good amount
how come I fail all of them tho?
me too lmao
where do yall find companies to apply to now
i dont even know where to apply anymore
Same, not sure where to even apply anymore
watch as they begin layoffs
I got resume rejected by McDonalds two years in a row gg
does anyone know if bb uk reached headcount? š®
has anyone had the experience where your final interview is scheduled 2-3 months from when you received the invite?
1 month max and even that is unusual
yeah :/ my company told me that their pipeline is busy so they can only potentially schedule final in jan-feb
which is worrying
Yeah I wouldnāt get my hopes up
not 2-3 months but visa pushed back my final to early dec
when it was supposed to be this week
yes i'm in the same situation... because my timeline for final was originally around before the end of this year
but they pushed it back to early 2023
just hope that their hc is not filled by then...
apply to burger king

i pranked myself by being a moron with no common sense at work, cucking myself out of the return offer, and throwing myself into a dwindling and cutthroat new grad job market
I love being in purgatory š»
damn you good bro?
yeah im good
how long does it take from app -> OA for bbg
took me like 9 days post applying to get a mail for scheduling phone
but it was in mid sept
now idk
give good reason š©

HOLY SHIT
this guy went from WITCH to citadel
what a chad
what a comeback story
I sus on this man's resume being more cracked than he's letting on
if he was able to pass a quant interview lmao
We had someone here go from WITCH to Bloomberg 
Slum was witch to Goldman to BB but yeah still goated
he went witch -> bb -> citadel it's not like he jumped straight from witch
I wonder what the guy learned at bb that qualified him for citadel quant
I think that's still a really good long run rebound story
Probably c++ LOL
What if i go citadel to witch
yea definitely but you dont really need a stellar resume to get bb, bro was probably just crazy at lc
I feel like c++ isn't enough for quant tho
c++ would be enough for low latency c++ swe
Fuck, how can I compete against them all to get into WITCH

my resume is pretty crap and i just have a pretty boring local web dev internship, still got a bb phone screen. I bombed it, but still š
I have nothing on my resume except a couple projects and still got an interview
what does WITCH stand for
basically consulting sweatshops
sweatshop is a misnomer since wlb isnt actually bad
just they hire people in droves
low pay
anyone get a palantir candidate experience survey? is this their way of rejecting people?
i see
Curious on this lol. Got rejected next day after receiving it.
curious: anyone know of companies which implement some kind of 4 day work week that hires new grads?
RIP was waiting for my vo results as well
:ded:
amazon layoff today
Confirmed?
we beat last earnings so thereās some hope
onsite
That just says this week
it's 10k people
Yea
Lockheed martin
Can confirm this is true
if u get the survey just fill out
"shit experience"
for everything
and refuse to elaborate
no way this gonna affect engineers
Does anyone know any oracle recruiters I can contact. I had my first round last week and my interviewer deadass said at the end I would receive good feedback but I have been ghosted. I donāt have access to a recruiter only a UTR scheduler
do you guys think it ll affect offers
Do you think Bloomberg will induce a hiring freeze
i would be surprised if they rescind but who knows
they ve been hiring like crazy in this recession kinda giving suspect vibes to me
ive been saying that for the longest but ppl been sayin im crazy
im not surprised that the amazon buble bursted
cuz bloomberg ārecession proofā and alsomy perception of whos getting hired and whos not is getting skewed cuz i interned at meta and im seeing fellow metamates getting offers left and right
probably being slow on new grad hiring as a soft reject tbh
Iām just confused on how bb is still going
how slow
soft way of admitting that HC has been reached
just ghosting people outright
who are still in process
i think roblox did this
I got rescheduled
oh thats not a bad idea i guess lmao
roblox got progressively more selective towards the end
but also bloomberg can operate normally regardless of negstive or positve press
their terminal too elite
i think bloomberg HC is near the brim and my theory is that theyre ghosting so they dont have to admit HC is full, or at least nearly full, right now
WAKANDA FOREVER
RIP just got rejected from BB after onsite even though I got all questions correct
I feel like this has been happening to a lot of people

tfw their HC is full
im so glad i graduated into a terrible economy and missed out on my amazon return offer
im building character

This cycle has taught me to overcome fear
THIS
my friend who got hrt got reject by roblox recently
Isnāt that kind of a given
all questions right and good stories relating tot heir values
p sure all companies get more selective as they fill HC
not rly some places just have a static hiring bar
yeah i feel like static hiring bar is more fair
i feel like also what bloomberg might do
same
Donāt remind me about roblox 
is quite literally hire as many ngs as possible because of the leakage of all the talent
and i got rejet yesterday as well
and then take little to no ng the next recrutiing season
š¦
gang gang
2x roblox rejects wya
Das me
got rejectted all cuz a dumbass robot couldnt figure its way out of a ditch
Does anyone else unironically feel like they've built character?
no
it's my copium and i feel like it helps
it's like this season wasn't bad enough
now we got to compete with laid off mid level engs
Do most companies use teams (the app) ?
And if so/ whatās the next most common ?
i feel like slack is more common
i agree but thats just not how things work
are people even still in process for zon when they're laying off 
Yeah yeah bro, people are apparently.
jsut depends on the org
if ur in aws ur v safe
Ah like immediately back to back?
no mins to spare in between?
they let me take a bathroom break if i wanted in between
Ah I see cool cool then
Congrats!!!
What location is yours for?
anyone got update from roblox?
Anyone know how long to hear from bloomberg phone interview?

been a week for me nothing yet

I applied Nov 3 and got phone scheduling on Nov 7
I applied for Roblox but my machine/browser could not handle the OA game lol . I just closed the browser out
asanas
Did ya make it thru?

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.
Sounds like a pokemon lmao
When your company logo is completely visible here shits fucked
The reason ppl don't have empathy is because we have the option to settle for 5 figures lol
How much does Microsoft pay for 2023 new grad?
I didn't get 1 test case on palantir karat on 2/3, so didn't get 3rd because of a silly mistake - is rescheduling a good option? rest went perfect
yeah pretty much why I don't expect any empathy
Lol
nothing, they not hiring any more
Based
Yeah they have a point tbh cs kids are some of the most spoiled people
Based
just look at levelsfyi, if they were to hire thats what it would b
CS students are out of touch tbh
Some dude from this server DMed me asking what Workday's NG TC is
Definitely out of touch
anything less than 500k is peanuts
What's better is that this person knew I interned at Workday
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.
Some people really be lacking basic social etiquette
tbh we work a lot harder than most majors
if you're in cscd, youre most likely than not at least trying for your career
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
and that puts you above average as a cs major
That would be starting though. On average, a CS major's salary will scale better.
its also for sure 147k for x amount, its unlikely u get fired, and theres no "stock" in their TC to drop
Physicians also lose out on 4 years of income while incuring debt though.
Did draymond punch him again
It's not just making less money. They're making negative dollars in med school.
4 years of med school and 3 years of residency is not quick lol
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
Medicine is still harder than getting into FAANG imo
they really have to keep a one-to-one ratio between med school admits every year, and available seats for a new doctor
i think people want life to be an upward trend
thats so unfortunate
It's 100% for sure painful to have to downgrade yourself
wtf is WITCH
consulting mills
???
they hire a shit ton of software dev consultants for cheap
and just outsource you to a client
for cheap
word 
ic
Wipro Infosys TCS Cognizant HCL
The difference is that there are less physicians than there are SWEs. And you can learn skills for tech without going to a recognized institution.
the witcha 3 wild hunt
Being a physician legally requires you to have the degree and pass board exams.
fire ass game
lol WITCH has been defined several times today
I feel like people just don't want to make less money than they did as an intern
I realized that it's ex-meta folks who are the most depressed
imagine a board exam for SWE with Dynamic Programming Problems
since meta resume value is in the toilet because of how many ex meta interns are out there now looking for a job
same with zon
tbh
and now we are telling you not to do CS
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
u mean 200k
in this economy we've tempered our expectations considerably
but not to the point where sub-100k is acceptable mentally
People in this server are living in a bubble
If someone would rather be unemployed than make 100k, I don't know what to tell them
Tbh I don't expect empathy for those who have bubbled expectations and are unhappy as a result of them, BUT I think it's unwarranted to shit on them for having the expectation.
They should tell you in the email
ehhhh accenture is a bit higher tier than WITCH. its more traditional consulting and they do pay better as far as i know
id rather make 90k than be unemployed, but id probably quit that job on the third day if i could get a 6 figure job right after starting
I took my $110k with pride before this server 80k would have been awesome as a new grad
Itās insanely hilarious hearing people saying things like ā100k is barely livable with the cost of living nowadaysā
Homie the federal minimum wage is still $7.25š some people are working 90+ hours a week to afford rent, youāre doing just fine
Wouldn't blame you. Especially if the WLB is equal.
Homie the federal minimum wage is still $7.25š some people are working 90+ hours a week to afford rent, youāre doing just fine
wouldnt call it ideal
its tolerable
making 100k in hcol is tolerable
40 to 60 mins
barely livable with their COL
they want a lavish life
Exactly
yeah you live in a tech hub at 100k is marginally livable
cost of living is some extend relative to your lifestyle
I always emphasize that I expect no empathy from society for CS majors since the fallback plan is still an above average for grad salaries
I just need my gaming pc, gym membership and going to a few EDM festivals a year and im good
I get that theres bigger problems in life
said what?
my problem is a first world problem
I get what you mean, you can acknowledge the privilege but still strive to make as much possible
This tbh 100%
I wish I could agree harder
My disappointment is purely personal
yeah you were at zon
It's not relevant to survival, more relevant to personal achievement
it's reasonable
Some dude went out of his way to DM me asking what WD's NG salary is. Then said "147k sucks" to me while knowing I interned there lol
tbh 147k in austin tx is a fortune
below average social etiquette
Nw. Itās the same thing lol. But the essence is that a lot of the time itās due too a lot of (but not all) CS majors being pretty well off to begin with.
147k in north carolina is godly
Think was Zon intern
austin is MCOL right?
LOL They havent accepted reality yet of the current market
this guy probably got cucked out of the 180k tc too
Pleasanton isn't bad tbh. My rent there was 1700/month which is not that bad relative to SF.
I had roommates
Yeah this is the biggest reason imo. My parents are immigrants, dad's been a long-haul trucker for decades. I'd be more than happy with 80k as a new grad (I'm from Canada)
Although if I had higher TC I could help pay off my parents debts, give my dad some reprieve
tbh i didnt like the bell peppers
they were rubbery
yeah i agree
i think having veggies on pizza is goated
yeah i have to admit i suffer from this
my family wasnt always rich(my parents made like 80k combined until like 2010 or so), but they got rich when i was in middle school
ive never had papa johns before
yeah papa johns always runs the commercials
I'm from new england and we have a local pizza chain called papa ginos, Tom Brady endorsed papa ginos
anyways, im convinced that anyone who eats papa ginos is a crisis actor, their pizza is so ass
papa ginos is a CIA psyop
yeah decadakon this is 100% my problem
I agree 150%
i relate 100%
F
I think the age-related FOMO I feel bad about most, would be probably missing out on the golden age of runescape, youtube, and Source engine games
man if I was one of the first settlers in Canada, my descendants could be living off the family land rn
when every teenager was playing those
my cousin is inheriting his step-grandfather's restaurant chain in japan
ez inheritance
My cousin dropped out of college and is currently making a fortune at the age of 20 selling solar door to door.
apparently my cousin stopped trying in school since he knows he's gonna own 10 restaurants at some point in life
i hope my cousin doesnt fuck up the restaurant chain
probably only worry is being deported
the money isnt the problem itself
a man of principle
even when I had a job, I still pirated all my movies
Based
I cant stand the bit rate on streaming services
Always torrent
Some ppl built diff
torrenting is GODLY
i would have accepted for 1% of that
full unadultered video file
less probabyl
š
parents probs loaded back home lol
i am an international too , i am so worried that for the past 2 days my food for the day has only been 2 cups of mocha and a few protein bars
the duality of man
good luck with your search my friend

I'm 25 and I was in that golden age

@outer radish whereās Wendyās application? I need to add to my collection of rejects from fast food companies

Yeah there are a lot of people here who have heard back
anyone hear back from ebay yet
I got the results 3 days after, I'm applying in London but there are some Americans here who have as well
and love chicken more than any other person that loves chicken
Not really, they just don't have much spots and seem to prefer hiring locally
they have a cool office in chicago and from what ive heard their interview process isnt that hard
pay pretty well for chicago too
has anyone done XR trading phone screen for ng swe cpp
dope, thanks for the info!
You know what I'll never god damn understand
why people create a discord group chat for group projects
and then whenever we meet up virtually
we use a zoom link
and not just discord calling
My group mates canāt even respond to discord messages before the project is due
has anyone who did palantir vo yesterday heard back?
random q but if i'm applying for an internship between bachelors and masters degree, how should i reflect that on my resume? should i just say master's with the new expected grad date, and leave the school name blank??
Just had an interview where I was asked twosum and tried to solve it using DP backtracking š
i guess i could see how someone could think that its 0/1 knapsack if theyd never seen it before
Ok i see loll tyty
Conversely you can also just extend out the start date of your bachelors
And not include your masters
ok i see ty!
Never
š¤Æ
has anyone recently received an offer from Roivant?
When'd u apply
same
W
didnt apply recruiter reached out on ripplematch
oh
even bigger W
did John email you @outer radish
i did their video interview 1 month ago and never heard back. Do you know anything about their hiring rn?
lemme check the guys name
yea
love john
LOL
that'd be a conflict of interest imo
glassdor sayin interviews are easy-med
anyone know what five rings tc is?
ahhh codesignal is protocred isnt it
a guy got 4 hour interview with 670s , its rng
for ebay how long did it take people to hear back from codesignal?
took me like 1 week ngl
it's been 1 month for me D: sadge
one of the last places i applied to
I sent my codesignal score a few weeks ago and haven't heard back
also for palantir how long did it take for anyone to hear back after Karat?
mfs ghosted me
when did u apply or did the recruiter reach out to u too
applied around mid sep, then ghosted
and no no recruited reached out
ah i thot canadian apps just opened
not looking good for this one either š¦
wait, they got back to you after code signal?
like a week after?
no no after applying
payge
ah gotcha
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
what company is this lol
i think you played it right, just sign it for now and renege if you need to
hmm I'm just really worried they got pissed and want to take back the offer even though I signed it lol
the recruiter used to be pretty good about responding to my emails but now he's just gohsting me
oh nah I dont think that's a risk
roivant
idk just really want to make sure I at least have a job next yar lol
but the recruiter ghosting me is giving me so much anxiety
nothing you can really do on your end besides keep looking
yeah still interviewing
stubhub tc confirmed: 150k base and 100k stocks per year for 4 years
do you guys .edu email id's for applying to various roles?
did you get an offer from ebay?
asana fucking cut jobs???
did they post a new grad opening this year? I've only seen staff and senior level apps from them
ya 9% lay off i believe
yeah they did in aug
jfc that's insane
I was blown away too
could be possible they got laid off
wdym
i just got the OA
has anyone done the duolingo final? If so how is the 4 hours broken down.
wait lol I just saw that they laid off 12% yesterday
rip
R u in canada or us?
I applied to canada position yesterday
usa
Icic tyty
just say buzzwords like caching, aws, sharding, etc.
works every time
Has anyone done Tesla OA for validation engineer?
people say Visa is easy and I felt like this is my last chance this season
Bro visa threw me off with like <20 min to do lc med wtf š
was your interview 30 min?
My first phone was 30 min and my interviewer spent 10 min asking behaviorals
I believe!!
same
I moved on but like
bruh
oh fun, I got mine pushed to december lol
I assume due to overfilling of today's interviews
oh so many people have their final round today?
i don't want to complain but apparently the low-level competition is getting higher
oh fun
by asking new grads system design
personally
I think that most companies that ask sysdesign of new grads are just trying to see your thought process
and less so about how accurate you are
if a company wants you to dub straight up
they're dumb asf
Just don't have 1200 RPCs ffs
Damn that's super unlucky, my Visa final last week was really chill (30 min behavioral with 10 min brain teaser at end and then 30 min technical with 1 LC + follow up)
"most of the microservices for the problem statement aren't needed so let's delete all of that"
i dont have an offer
Any new positions opened up for new grad ? Suggestion pls ?
Do you have any offers
What do i do if my thought process is bad since i have never designed a system?
has anyone here gotten number of ships in a rectangle for bloomberg
that question. it scares me.
i get how to do it but the impl is annoying
I have designed modules, games , backend of a website, but never a distributed system
when your interviewer says good luck with your job search at the end, does that mean reject?
also when i design something i typically think about it for two days lmao
yea "systems design" is just like, ood for ng interviews
which sucks bcuz i never took an oop class 
Doesnt mean anything my bb em said see you soon and i got rejected
my coworker at meta said see you soon, thought it meant i got GE, but i got rejected a month later
oop
idk if same xceed ur thinking of
today I gave my bb EM interview and it went well, just behavioural
LOL no
my bb VO is tomorrow
I think ima go I have like 3 people who work at Garmin
hearing horror stories.. scary
Hope u get it, they seem to be rejecting lots of people in em nowadays
it used to be that when u get to em u can anticipate offer
at this point, u just gotta take it chill. do something to get ur mind off it
So how is this even a question lol, just go
Can someone who thinks theyr decent and sys design interviews give me a mock interview
wild
i'll be done the top 50 tagged by end of today
i hope thats enough
idk how i passed phone tbh
I thought it went well, at the last she said it was nice talking to you, and good you with your job search. ( it was just a resume deep dive) and my interest.
yeah I am not thinking about it now.
xceed is LEGENDARY
you did 24 lc problems today???
im doing like 15 today
If i reapply to draftkings would they know lol
no i meant what substance are you taking to do 24 lc problems a day
busted their oa over a stupid bug
this is the grindset mentality
this is some shit im bout to frame on my wall
doing code signal practice tests rn to test myself
grind never stops
my avg is like 3.7/day for the past few months
total?
my average is like 1 but for bb I def did like 15 a day for a week lmao
then you learn nothing lol
i take LC too lax when im doing it alone without pressure
so i take a practice codesignal to stress me out
then start dong LC
prolly shaving like 5 yrs off my life doing that but its ok
me in 2008: 
my dad in 2008: 
me in 2022: 
my dad in 2022: 
Yeah TAT, i actually had 2 tech round, first 30min design question and the second 30min another tech with 1 lc+a lot of questions related to topics on the interview guide
honestly every other lagnauge is a pita for regex
I don't know why I didn't get a behavior round???
Was your 1st phone also technical?
yes
Hmm interesting
i did well on the second tech final, but totally boomed the first one
the question wasn't hard but it was about distributed system and i know nothing about it
how much does having a 3.0 vs having a 2.something and leaving it off your resume impact how easy it is to get interviews?
i mean it wasn't a typical sd question, but definitely some design concepts
I think very few companies actually look at GPA, it'd only hurt I think if you didn't have any internships
don't list it on your resume, and you should be fine
lmaooo
I'm just askin cuz im a senior and have the potential to raise my gpa up to a 3.0 this quarter. But one of my finals is on the same day as when i was planning to go on a trip with my friends and idk if i should just ditch my final tbh
ive also been having abysmal luck at getting interviews š
so its a predicament
how close is it to a 3.0
2.92
i also had 0 social life or friends through college so missing this would low key majorly suck
yeah i guess if you dont list it its w.e
nvm the final is worth 22% of my grade, if i ditch i fail the class
forever alone gang š„²
i have a 3.9 and it doenst matter
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.
what would you be doing in that extra semester that you wouldnt be doing if you had a degree?
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.
very unlikely things will improve by april/may
media outlets are reporting the recession will get worse in 2023
i think the concensus in cscd is tthat the recession hasn't hit the entire economy yet
just tech got it first
by Feb 1st week next year
@queen valve seeing the current hiring trend do you think, the hiring situation will improve by March,23?
did anyone do bloomberg first round recently?
im doomer leaning too but i dont think itll get all that much worse from here
kek
murphy's law would like to have a word with you
God the amount of anxiety this server gives me
i heard google will be turning up the heat
is this the golden age of tech over
I donāt mind working hard
or the redistribution of wealth to other businesses
tbh i think that for tech, a lot of companies will probably never overhire to the extent they did in the past 2 years, ever again
Ppl barely working and making huge salaries will probably stop
So many coasters in big companies
...that's like 50k people, that's insane
naw i dont know about this one
insane
there's alwawys gonna be big coasters
just straight tribal knowledge idk
we got delusional believing that we could do anything in this job market
aside from you that is
i wonder if they dropped the hiring bar or kept it the same during this time
if bob built the entire architecture of the microservice and holds the second key to prod then they cant exactly fire him
oh
that too lmao
I mean it's our heads
our jobs
not theirs
yeah but the numbers this year are down like 40%
and there were more people graduating than last year
How does one prepare for HRT phone/interviews
you are right that its all speculation
I have no OS/Network/Lowlevel experience LMAO
it wasn't easy
already accepted my fate
I remember I was talking to my non-tryhard friends about the recession and how bad recruiting is now, and they said "if you feel screwed with amazon on resume imagine how bad itll be for the average cs major"
I did not have the heart to tell them the truth
so I dropped the convo
"if you feel screwed with meta and amazon on resume imagine how bad it'll be for the average cs major"
that's not what I mean, and I'm still not done even with 3 offers, so I'll lyk if I get an offer at the places I have final rounds
or maybe I should have said it, but then I'd look like an asshole tbh
but i dont want to rain on my friends parades
do you guys think it'd be reasonable to fail this year's job cycle and retry next year right after I graduate
or would that kill me since I'd be out of college
really? it was starting to get bad then
I'm graduating 2023 May but was wondering if I can go for 2024 new grad roles
and take like an year off
I cant pass databricks resume screen, I stg they care about school prestige
I should have interned at spotify or autodesk last summer, so I could still get a full time offer at amazon after failing my internship
Fuck
it will be even worse with meta & amazon & google (next jan) layoffs
and here's me who waited until Meta rejected my full time return offer
I cri doe I have pending Palantir/BB phone
actually doe
Say what? āYouāll never get a job plebsā?
nah they know you too good for them
probs saw your resume and was like "oh dang she too good for us"
"yeahhhh yall needa get on this shit FAST and NOW"
but they're happy people and they all touch grass, so I would feel bad for ruining their peace
besides, they have different goals from me
Yikes I'm glad they didn't
same
fuck em
JS interviewed all my friends from college but me
nobody passes apple lol
and I have more FAANG experience than them
Cant u just go to js recruiter and be like hey i got hrt u wanna interview me? 
joanna is better, faster, stronger
I get that, Iām international so itās hustle or be deported. I have a return offer but idk if it will stay. I see all these kids having fun partying hard and I wish I had that life tbh
Only safe part about amazon I feel like is AWS
Is Alexa one of the departments getting layoffs?
ye
im a US citizen and I just feel guilty enjoying myself when I have career issues to sort out
especially knowing how high pressure the season is
how does UK visa shit work
those who got return offers got rescinded
ez; just get into a company
no lottery, once you have a sponsor you get your visa in like 3 weeks
easiest thing ever
god I wish all of you internationals the best
Thx
h1b is only a problem because of "certain" consulting firms who take up like 80%+ of the total h1bs
Letās see what my companies do
can't imagine the added stress of this situation
Gc is like US has Indian and Chinese citizens backlogged by 10 years
and Rest of World is just like you apply and get it as soon as they process it (2 years max ish)
Yeah WITCH is responsible for fucking up the H1b situation
popper

Bruh meta ro are like top top performers
are kind of wishing they'd get rescinded
Idk why they rescinded
Y tho
they are like the ones who enter office on the first day and restructure their org I swear
The ones who still have offers are prob still nervous af
no clue; the new grads who joined a few weeks ago were mostly slashed too
Then how do they define ge?
Oh
Even someone who joined and was setting up their tech equipment got laid off on the day of joining
Yeah thatās like a night@are
but the severance of 100k doe
4 months
no clue I just heard that from somewhere
16 weeks to be exact
100k severance š
I mean assuming u have nothing to do with immigration then 60k for severance is pretty dope š
yea people who had their rescinded are too late to apply for NG
do they even qualify for NG?
I mean its not hard to get jobs with average pay
I regret grinding really hard this summer; shud've just leetcoded and found another job
smh
was pushing code to prod while my intern friend was interviewing for JS and Optiver
SAME
I had 9k significant lines of code
Holy fk how did u have 9k lines of code loool
yup š¦ unfortunately
9k in leetcode would've gotten me into hft
I did fe and only had like 4k including test
And i did like 17 weeks
I went on break to get ice cream sandwiches at 10 am but Iām a slacker
what was phone 1 like
where at?
Low tier on this server is 100k
Last year vibes were like "I got into Google! I got into Meta! I got into Amazon! I got into Microsoft!" and people would be popping champagne
this year is like
"HFT OR I HOMELESS"
*i need any reasonable paying job or i will starve to death or be deported
hftcfa = high frequency trading chik-fil-a
Yeee loool
Fck i want hft now but i gotta stay in canada for couple of years
Does hft even have pip?
What has a harder interview process? Core or Algo?
can;t fucking wait
Damn ppl at hft are def under lots of pressure
I just want something relatively chill with good salary
*cough cough linkedin
government job?
(coming from city hall)
Nahhhh government jobs in my place pay kinda bad
lmao same
Plus they mostly use old tech stack
civil servants got paid $1500 per month
i forgot to apply to stripe lmao
is meta >> goog?
i regret cancelling my google internship interview last season
Oh wow you interned this Summer?
put that on workday
Y'all come to London
Damn u guys complain about cities in us
ditch NYC
I really wanna live in Vancouver
Roblox doesn't make games tho. They're a platform š
did you purely interview in Python?
Thinking of switching from Java to Python
syntax too long
and fell in love with numpy
numpy doesnt help for interviews
I do interviews in Python, but mostly code in Java/Kotlin and JavaScript/Typescript at work
unless u mean in general
ikik but I just find it cool
Just don't work at those places e,
CPP + Python >> Java
This
they didnt let me do python š©
TypeScript anyone
I'll code in Javascript over my dead body
Nahhhh ts is too much work
python is great because to make a graph u just, g = collections.defaultdict(list)
My plan is just to learn cpp when I have to interview for hfts
What is ocaml
Sounds like functional programming

Im a OOP simp
Ok give me a similar language to ocaml so I have an idea
?
Machine Learning?
haskell
Yeah I didn't touch any of that in college 
rec_dd = lambda: defaultdict(rec_dd)
Psh imagine using a lambda function
If I make a hft firm I'll make all my interviews in Brainfuck
My degree is engineering not CS
Brainfuck is an esoteric programming language created in 1993 by Urban Müller.Notable for its extreme minimalism, the language consists of only eight simple commands, a data pointer and an instruction pointer. While it is fully Turing complete, it is not intended for practical use, but to challenge and amuse programmers. Brainfuck requires one t...
