As someone who has been quietly stalking the discord channel, I noticed that the entire discord server is a bunch of people belittling other people's career decisions. For example, I saw someone asking on that discord, about working at some Fintech company. I shit you not, a bunch of people started to make fun of this person for even thinking about working there. Calling the person "dull" since it’s not a FAANG. There have been so many similar instances. I also it quite bugs me that so many people care more about the compensation. They don't care about what the company does, what the job is, the culture or even where the job site even is. Plus, there is a lot of cheating and leaks on OAs even though the company asks you to keep them private. You may pass the initial OA because of answers you collected from server, but when you meet face to face with an engineer; they will quickly realize what happened. Probably will get your self immediately rejected.

Reducing variance anywhere u can is good

nocturne oriole
#

You cannot conceive of a situation where an OA is harder than a final?

#

I’ve done 20+ ng onsites

#

I’ve had plenty

crude saffron
#

Also even if ur like 50% probability to pass final let’s say that doesn’t mean ur 100% to pass oa

#

Maybe you’re like 70%

fallen fox
#

ive had a final where the problem was to add two numbers and check if they are a multiple of 60

crude saffron
#

And with external assistance u pass oa 85% of the time

azure zephyr
#

Does Google send the OA after the recruiter call? I can't find much info on the process

fallen fox
#

whereas the oa was 2x lc med and 1x dp hard

nocturne oriole
#

The nature of many OA’s is to be an implementation heavy / optimization heavy solution, sometimes several @rain patio. They know u dont have someone breathing down ur neck + it’s the first filter in a multi step process

#

So the first filter means they want it to be difficult so as to narrow the playing field

fallen fox
#

a lot of companies know that candidates look up oa solution so in a lot of instances they are purposefully harder than the finals

crude saffron
#

Priced in Lolol

teal jackal
#

tbh OA cheating has fucked up the bar for OAs

#

if youre gonna end up looking up the answer either way, might as well make you figure out a hard one

nocturne oriole
#

No it hasnt lol, it takes like 2 decent swe’s 5 brain cells to craft OA’s that are both reasonable and difficult

But none of these swe’s work at hackerrank

what kinda car should i build to celebrate being done with one of my classes

true

Wouldn’t worry tbh

#

Only 1k swe right

At qualtrics we have 1400 swe

But like 6k employees

Because we r like a sales company basically

is there a chance that qualtrics might open up hiring for outside hires

Not going to be on the test, not very useful in real life

How long does it take to get Expedia final round after hackerrank. I got perfect on OA and took it last week

#

in freshman and sophomore year of high school i was a massive trump supporter so i always bootlicked the pledge of allegiance

at some point i realized maga is dumb and i stopped getting up for the pledge too

We did pledge all of K-12

why did I imagine that

livid yew

I mean I still don't understand why we say it

I just followed what everyone else was doing dogesmile

someone reassure me that new grad is not the end-all

#

joblessness is looking like a real prospect rn

wind drum
#

it's gonna be alright r/cscq is saying only big tech is being affected rn and the rest of the industries are still hiring a lot!!

#

im about to have an aneurysm

wind drum
#

yes

teal jackal
#

I genuinely can't tell

#

Ah

#

Yeah they're really assuming that local and midsize companies and nontech will have the money to increase HC this year

teal jackal
#

Literally if best wishes were real I'd be so goated rn

sudden lily
teal jackal
#

If I took all of the best wishes that companies sent when they resume rejected me and combined them together, I'd have absolutely nothing

teal jackal
sudden lily
teal jackal
#

For new grads and entry level?

#

Lemme know where they are

sudden lily
#

Maybe not for new grads but big tech is more likely to hire new grads in general

teal jackal
#

Yeah most of the listings atm are backfill or only expanding hc for experienced devs

#

At least SE2 level

wind drum
#

right yeah the point im trying to make is new grads are fucked rn, but a lot of ppl are very ignorant abt it

teal jackal
#

I think most of cscq is experienced devs but not at faang and other big tech

sudden lily
#

I feel so bad that anyone who thought of holding off their job search until winter break

teal jackal
#

So their perspective is different

sudden lily
#

New grad hiring was pretty good in august/sept

teal jackal
#

Csmajors is where the youngins are at

teal jackal
#

Even then it was harder to get interviews

#

Than in the past

#

But it only got worse from there

sudden lily
#

I have 3 previous internships so it wasn’t too bad for me but yea

dense cloud
#

july superiority tbh

#

i started applying early sept and still not done yet 💀

sudden lily
#

Yeah ngl u had to start in July 🫡

teal jackal
#

My results were not good for starting late August

#

I still don't really have any light at the end of the tunnel

wind drum
#

yeah i was firmly in the boat that applying a bit later was worth it if u still needed to prep

#

def not the move this season

teal jackal
#

Do you at least have final interviews and stuff?

sudden lily
dense cloud
#

yeah but not counting on them much

teal jackal
#

I feel like applying in July is optimal now

sudden lily
#

Rip seems like they are stricter now, I know a couple people this season that also didn’t get return offers

teal jackal
#

Yeah they raised the hiring bar significantly

#

They probably predicted that they needed to cut hc

sudden lily
#

I’d assume u couldn’t apply to FT there then

teal jackal
#

I can apply for industry hire roles but I'm on Cooldown for student programs new grad

timber rock
#

i mean they're right but it is still harder cause of the people who would normally go to big tech now applying to non-big tech

#

but people acting like there are no jobs at all because faang and some others are frozen is pretty wild, broaden your search 👍

only thing that'll change is how much my truck cuts into my savings

How much is the truck

And how much do u expect to get paid

teal jackal

no matter where i work, ill be a dev working on dev shit + have a sick truck

$30k budget on a used GMC

at least 80k would let me comfortably afford it

no reason in particular

#

what was your internship?

It was a product internship too

#

But the project I had made no sense

teal jackal

ah

that sucks

#

are u gonna be a PM for new grad too?/

karmic ember

Prolly

#

I wanna be in a database management position

#

So bad

teal jackal

#

any raeson in particular?

karmic ember
#

Stuck with product

#

Hopefully I like this better than the last internship

karmic ember
#

They're switching over to mongodb as well so that'd be cool too

#

But SQL clicks with me lol

#

I say that but I was struggling in my final exam yesterday

#

But do SWEs get paid 180k as new grads?

teal jackal
#

180k was realistic when HUGE faangs and other big companies were still hiring and growing rapidly

#

since huge companies hire a lot of people and give a lot more people chances at that kinda Tc because of how many people they hire

#

this year headcount is in the shitter

#

180k is unrealistic and a pipe dream now

timber rock
teal jackal
#

180k requires really good luck now, or you have a god tier resume

#

even then people with god tier resumes arent getting as far as ideal anymore

#

thats bubbled lol

#

not like any shmuck can still get 180k or 200k

#

or even someone who still in good faith tries and works hard for it

#

cant get it

split plaza
teal jackal
#

i think hiring freezes and headcount cuts are making the 180k dream a lot more difficult to achieve

#

I would ignore that thread, it doesn't tell the full story of how hard it is to get now

karmic ember
#

Sheesh I get paid 12/hr to pick up trash and dog poop #

karmic ember
teal jackal
#

Don't worry about the company's TC if the company hasn't given you an offer

#

ignore the discussion on company tc

#

it doesnt tell the story of hard it is to get

#

It wasn't exactly just a given to get a good 180k offer even in good years

karmic ember
#

The only jobs around me pay like 11/hr and part time unfortunately. Cali too expensive

karmic ember
late kestrel
#

200k+ is like top 1% at best. id say thats pretty rare

teal jackal
#

1% for all SWEs

karmic ember
#

I tried applying for those jobs but they don't call back. I got a job where I pick up trash from apartment complexes. Think Valet Trash so that's what I'm doing. It's really tough and disgusting

new grad SWEs at least

teal jackal
#

im alright

#

im not bad

#

i thinik i could be qualified to handle most jobs if i worked hard enough

#

and put my all into it

late kestrel
#

i mean just this year who is consistantly hiring at 200k+...? palantir.... the 100 ng spots at HFTs... and thats kinda it

teal jackal
#

i got paid $13 to sit at a cash register and wander around the store aimlessly at gamestop

#

back in hs

karmic ember
#

Yeah, I guess it's okay considering I have no experience besides internship

teal jackal
#

and most those companies have ungodly hiring bars

#
  • headcount
foggy perch
late kestrel
#

im more thinkin of base offers since most ppl rnt in a position to negotiate

foggy perch
#

meh even with base offer bb is approx 178k base + bonus w/ 10k relo

#

so not too far off 200

late kestrel
#

but yeah fair, although a few of those probably hired like 20 ngs at most, or havent offered anyone yet

teal jackal
#

bloomberg TC is goated

foggy perch
#

also HFT folk are on a different level w/ 300k+ offers

teal jackal
#

i think that c/o23 missed out on the abundance of 150k+ tc jobs that previous years got

crude saffron
#

that includes signing

teal jackal
#

since its just hard to get a job at all now

foggy perch
#

I remember seeing someone w/ 500k y1 300k recurr

400-500 aren't the norm

#

eh

#

i feel like amazon hiring sig tapered down this year

#

for ng at least

teal jackal
#

amazon is done hiring for this year for new grads

#

or tentatively done

#

theyll take people off the waitlist if theres space

foggy perch
#

significantly

timber rock
#

i dont think they will stay frozen for long

foggy perch
#

eh I think amazon hiring is unlikely to improve that much for ng this eyar

#

year*

#

considering lots more interns probs accepted return offers than usual

#

and they have a very large waitlist

#

they also deleted some orgs/teams I think?

late kestrel
#

deleted 😂

timber rock
#

the freeze is lasting until the end of the year at least, i doubt they will stay frozen all the way until next cycle

foggy perch
#

f

#

unsurprising

karmic ember
#

Offers can get rescinded?

foggy perch
#

I would not be surprised if they stay frozen for NG, or only hire a small number of people from waitlist

#

Amazon is even rejecting return interns who were supposed to get offers

#

for good performance

timber rock
#

isnt amazon's average tenure like 1 year lol

foggy perch
#

I remember seeing posts of people posting amazon emails

karmic ember
#

Wtf that's terrible? Like accepted offers or just offers given out that weren't accepted yet

teal jackal
#

I think amazon is hopeless for the rest of the year since amazon needs to prioritize waitlists

foggy perch
#

where they were interns who were told they did well, but got rejected for return offer due to lack of HC on team

timber rock
#

they surely cannot stay frozen for much longer than that

teal jackal
#

wait people get rejected for HC reasons? I thought they just get thrown into the general pool of rng team matching

It’s funny how ever since I got an intern offer both my intern and new grad inboxes have been completely barren

#

Like literally nothing

#

Except Walmart now I guess

#

I’m just winging it for Walmart, did round 1 yesterday and passed overnight

It’s okay I rescinded their power day invite before they could rescind it.

#

Tbh I think we're still in a position where going to every interview we have is good practice

#

As entry level, we can never get enough practice

weak latch
#

The problem was mad easy

#

It was a 1 hour interview where he started with some basic tell me about urself and then we went over my OA

#

I had to talk through everything I did and my thought process

#

And then I solved the actual problem and we still had 20+ minutes left lol

timber rock
#

i dont even think c1 has started scheduling finals in the uk yet lol

teal jackal
#

Or tbh my perspective on life is different, I have no social confidence so the more interviews I do the more used to it I get

timber rock
#

we've been chilling here for like 2 months

teal jackal
#

I go to every interview I have because I like the practice

#

Also because I need the job lolll

weak latch
#

Yes

teal jackal
#

Honestly salesforce is kickass, it's worth delaying grad for

weak latch
#

More like reverting back to my original graduation

#

I was pushing it forward to do new grad

#

My grad date was always December 2023

Ah, so you're a c/o24 kid

Makes sense

But I’m leaving a semester early lol

teal jackal

Did u carry a lot of ap credits over

weak latch
#

Not much AP, more dual enrollment

teal jackal

I know that everyone ik who had a lot of APs and dual enrollment is graduating like at least a semester early

#

does palantir do any negotiation?

weak latch
#

And honestly not that much actually helped with my degree

#

Mainly gen ed

uncut umbra
#

seriously? that's terrible

#

like not even with competing/better offers in terms of tc?

I graduated community college and high school at the same time

I didn’t care to do college applications cross country and I knew my school was solid for CS

So I just did the at

Senior year dual enrollment is really smart if you know you just wanna go to state school

#

Tbh if I was more educated on career development earlier in life

#

I would have done dual enrollment to UMass Amherst

weak latch
#

My junior year was kinda hellish

teal jackal
#

I went to northeastern because I'm bad with career stuff

weak latch
#

I did 3 AP classes and 3 dual enrollment classes per semester

#

So 6 total

teal jackal
#

I needed northeastern to convince some local company to give me an internship

#

I got paid $30 my first internship which was quite nice

#

But yeah I woulda been fucked if i had to look on my own

#

My college helped me get my first internship for sure

#

I went to the right college

weak latch
#

I got $15 for my first one 💀💀

#

And I only got it through a family friend

#

It helped me get zon tho so fuck it

#

And now salesforce

#

So I have that family friend to thank

teal jackal
#

In fact I'm considering still using family friend connections to get me a job

weak latch
#

Nepotismmmmm

teal jackal
#

So true bro

#

My friend in dual enrollment did a local company internship in the summer after senior year

#

Dude has his shit together

I really respect him for having a plan in life

No distractions, eyes focused on the main goal

Does anyone know what the JPMC superday is like?

I tried to look online for inside scoop

they ask a lot of trivia and sysdesign

It’s literally basic trivia and LC easy

OOP

I heard its a tossup actually

jaunty basalt

It’s extremely basic

teal jackal

OOP/sysdesign trivia, PL trivia, database trivia

#

what else am I missing

#

i also saw they asked someone parallelism

teal jackal
#

some guy on blind was asked java stuff

jaunty basalt
#

It doesn’t matter

teal jackal

thanks for advice

Like if u get asked what an interface is

U cannot complain and say it’s only java

Technical Interview

How do you merge two lists?

How do you find intersections between two lists?

If you were to create a password managing service, tell me about your process.

So when we enter a web address into the browser, say google.com, tell me how that process works from when you enter the address to when you see the web page.

What can you tell me about load balancing?

Could you tell me what abstraction, inheritance, and encapsulation is as well as some examples of them?

How do you test your applications?

#

This is what one guy said the summary is like

fossil jewel
timber rock
teal jackal
#

It seems like JPMC really values OOP when it comes to interviewing

#

I'm definitely gonna be studying up on OOP principles

#

I heard that security and networkign principles are wildcards, it depends on your interviewer

fossil jewel
#

yeah it was just talking about the stuff on my resume after 10 minutes of talking thru an LC ez question

teal jackal
#

that's from my online armchair research

fossil jewel
#

the first of the two is behavioral

#

lots of "describe a time when"

timber rock
teal jackal
#

well in that case it seems like the entire interview is a wildcard

#

everyone gets asked a completely different combination of principles and questions

fossil jewel
#

its all dependent on your resume

teal jackal
#

Hm

fossil jewel
#

maybe

teal jackal
#

I have 2 prior internships

#

with projects I can talk about

fossil jewel
#

ik mine just looked and asked me about how i approached doing projects

#

things i'd do different and what not

#

fyi i had no prior internship or anything so it was just projects on my resume

teal jackal
#

ill just assume its a wildcard

#

like everything about the technical part of superday seems like a wildcard

#

total RNG what youre asked

fossil jewel
#

yeah best to

#

just know Java, OOP principles though

#

thats the biggest

teal jackal
#

yeah it seems like OOP is generally asked in evvery case

fossil jewel

Gl

#

anything on your resume is fair game is what my mentor told me prior to applying

teal jackal

sounds good

they said you can get more or less depending on actual performance in the offer letter

livid yew

Rather I didn't think to ask 4KEKW

does anyone know what SIG software developer interviews are like? There's not a lot of information out there
