Oh damn. I got a Zoom OA a few weeks ago but got too lazy to take it.

#

From what my recruiter was saying, Zoom was mostly only recruiting directly from schools. Like they were only taking people who directly met with them at a school career fair or online.

#

Okay.. weird

autumn ridge
#

Their process just seems weird and like it varies on a bunch of different things. Even the offer itself is variable based on performance. I don't think I crushed the interviews either because I got the lowest offer they send out

#

They nego'd it up a lot but the intial offer was the 155 base 17 bonus

#

Yeah I mean if you peep the process channel multiple people that got offers heard back more than week later

If BB rescinds offers when they donate most of their profits, other companies are prob going to be even worse off

lunar zinc
#

Okay ..do you guys know why they are delaying the response after EM round?

Lots of applicants means the processing takes longer

was hearing alot about stack ranking after VO..

#

mmm interesting

#

i got HM even though i didn't feel i did too hot on VO

#

i'm assuming they take the results of all rounds into account holistically though?

#

like you can still get rejected with a good HM but bad VO?

dont tell me im getting the mini onsite

yea im an industry hire (~1yr exp) so i've done a technical w an engineer + a technical for the onsite

#

Does 35k tc cut make sense from SF/NYC to Boston? Seems a bit too much

wind drum
#

or like a percentage value

alpine path
wind drum
#

eh i think that's pretty reasonable at that tc from t1 city to t2 city

alpine path
#

Recurring is fine. But the tc should be 15k higher right?

wind drum
#

yeah idk why they are taking so much off the signing bonus

alpine path
#

Yea thats the only concerning part

#

With same signing it would be 220 vs 200 which is reasonable to me

#

Recurring is fine tho, which ig is the more important one anyways

wind drum
#

185 is more than bing chilling in boston anyway

Essentially sf/nyc will have a 1000/month more post tax the first year and 400/month more recurring just taking into account taxes

#

Ur right

#

Oh yea the other option is Austin texas 175 tc and 166 recurring

#

Makes sense

#

Hey guys.
I have a conundrum.
Should I renege a signed offer or ask to push back the joining date(which is possible)?
The other offer I got is better but I am fearing about this offer being rescinded.

alpine path
#

Do both

#

Everyone laying off now. Better to be safe lol

distant rampart
#

Yeah i would honestly just hold on to every offers i get until the start date.. i know that i might get blacklisted but too many companies are rescinding their offers rn

errr no? did you get that lol

mine just said congrats on a successful onsite! with an exclamation point

#

i wouldn't read too much into it though

orchid aspen
#

i didnt feel like i did crazy during vo either

delicate cloak
#

i think they give everyone feedback after onsite right away

#

mine came like 3 hours later

orchid aspen
#

theres someone in meta discord that has had no news for a week

#

so ymmv

#

and other people that had news after maybe 2-3 days, did you have ur vo recently? I think they might be speeding things up before their holidays

delicate cloak
#

yeah my vo was on thursday

#

that might also be true

#

but it seems like majority of people heard back a few hours after from what i've gathered

orchid aspen
#

ye they probably hurrying, you told them about your offer deadlines right? i think that might also play a factor

delicate cloak
#

oh yeah i did

orchid aspen
#

yee, whens ur hm btw

delicate cloak
#

i made that up though lol my offer deadlines were back in september

orchid aspen
#

smart

delicate cloak
#

i didn't get mine scheduled

#

did you?

orchid aspen
#

yeah they gave me the choice monday or tuesday lmao

delicate cloak
#

i asked them to try to get it within the next week but didn't get a response on friday

#

which location are you interviewing for btw

orchid aspen
#

nyc, wbu

delicate cloak
#

i was originally interviewing for palo alto but recruiter called day before my vo saying they reached headcount

#

so they moved me to denver

orchid aspen
#

yeah like recruiter and coordinator reached out at the same time

delicate cloak
#

i thought nyc was full a while back

#

guess not?

orchid aspen

are you american citizen btw? denver sounds like its for gotham or something

delicate cloak
#

though IIRC both of my interviewers were gotham

orchid aspen
#

nah, email said foundry hm

#

and had fdse and swe interviewers

delicate cloak
#

oh weird

#

mine does not list a specific team

#

i just kind of expressed interest in both foundry and gotham during my interviews

#

my recruiter explicitly told me that the process is supposed to be agnostic though and that team matching happens later

orchid aspen
#

well i think that hm is where it might become a sort of team match? idk. Also im not murican, so probably never going to be considered for gotham

delicate cloak
#

ahh that makes sense

orchid aspen
#

idk if they hire for Apollo newgrad

delicate cloak
#

i wish my recruiter would give me a heads up for what team the hm is on then so i'm not blindsided lol

#

and yeah that also makes sense

#

i know the least about Apollo

#

did your email say what you were going to be tested on during hm? like decomp or coding?

orchid aspen
#

denver is in the midwest usa, im 90% sure its gotham

#

yeah mine said coding

delicate cloak
#

ehh denver isn't really midwest but you're probably right that it's gotham

#

i also know that they're hiring most for gotham in general due to all the government contracts

cold kernel
#

you'll prob need a security clearance for gotham

#

palantir also just got a big cdc contract

orchid aspen
#

what are going to be your hm rounds?

delicate cloak
#

i'm pretty sure they probe you on what they feel you were weakest on

#

they're asking me decomp again probably because my decomp sucked

orchid aspen
cold kernel
#

my recruiter said decomp/coding

#

prob some sort of hybrid

delicate cloak
#

i only finished 1 question in learning too, i'm not sure if there was supposed to be more?

#

learning isn't really coding though i think?

orchid aspen
cold kernel
#

lol yea idk

delicate cloak
#

i thought coding was supposed to be like LC

cold kernel
#

prob just decomp honestly

delicate cloak
#

but like hard LC that isn't tagged

#

oh i had no idea learning was supposed to be 3 questions lol

orchid aspen
cold kernel
#

something like that

#

im an industry hire so i have a 3rd party recruiter thats working with me too

#

he said it'll just be decomp

orchid aspen
#

bro is an impostor, this is 2023 grads skull4k

cold kernel
#

i was supposed to be class of 2023 lol

delicate cloak
#

i guess in retrospect if i wasn't a fucking idiot on learning i probably would have finished my question real fast, so they probably had to have had more questions to fill up the time

#

because it wasn't that much code

orchid aspen
delicate cloak
#

i honestly felt my learning was weaker than my decomp considering my interviewer kept having me revisit my assumptions to set me on the right path

#

i have no idea how my decomp went honestly, was super open ended

orchid aspen
#

but yeah i also fked around in the beginning, i really tried to think of all the edge cases

Help guys

I have the option rn to take probabilistic reasoning (multivariate Gaussian, hidden markov models etc) and get an AI minor or take distributed systems and not get an Ai minor (I would not be taking probabilistic reasoning either)

nocturne oriole
#

A good dist. sys. course will be really good bang for buck and very applicable to SWE

#

And an AI minor also prob won't be a game changer for your career prospects, I don't see an opportunity cost worth worrying about. But if you are literally one class away from that AI minor then just finish it up?

I had pretty rotten luck early season

#

Couldn't land a single interview for the longest time

leaden aspen
#

You can go even earlier tbh

teal jackal
#

I even applied on the day the listing went up, for many companies

#

When did u start then

leaden aspen
#

I did all those interviews and went though final round before august

teal jackal
#

Oh

leaden aspen
#

Got offer from palantir 8/3

teal jackal
#

To be fair, at the time most of us were holding out for a return offer

#

I guess your mileage varies since you applied hella early

#

You gotta be SUPER early now to stand a chance

#

And luck is a big factor

leaden aspen
#

this idea of having to do this or that to have a chance is just irrational. There are things you can do to improve your odds and that’s it’s but it’s never impossible and it’s never guaranteed

teal jackal
#

I think it's time to just accept that the economy fucking sucks

#

Faang ain't enough in this economy to get into the same tier company

#

In the current state of the app cycle

#

I'm ready to downlevel in prestige

leaden aspen
teal jackal
#

It kinda is

#

I think you're trying to speak on behalf of many people who can't get interviews

#

It's infinitely harder to land interviews now

leaden aspen
#

it’s also December lol

teal jackal
#

Especially in this stage of the cycle

#

I'd say shit hit the fan once the mass layoffs started

#

At that point it became exponentially harder to land interviews

#

But I'm glad I'm content with downleveling for now and clawing my way back up

#

In the future

#

Yeah its my fault to not apply sooner, I was waiting for the return offer that may or may not come and only realized that after too late

They expedited my process and I got to skip phone after being no showed twice. So definitely get on your recruiter. I was super nice and just said how excited I was about the opportunity and how I hoped it was still possible to go through the process with them even though inside I was fumming lol

Last tuesday so less than a week? I would wait until next week at least theirs people who have taken over 10 days to hear back in this discord if you check the process channel.

If you don't hear back after 2 weeks I would spam the recruiter again, I still would probably stay away from reaching out to EM till maybe 3 weeks out as a last ditch effort. I'm assuming theirs really nothing they can do but it seems like it went super well if they gave you their contact info

Honestly was expecting it

I'm personally a believer in hives business model

I am not a believer in hives wlb

teal jackal
#

My technical guy for jpmc wanted me to crack, I can tell tbh

#

"you're cs+game I'm sure you get asked this a lot but why don't u do game dev instead"

#

As a matter of fact, I've never been asked that before

#

He also tried to discredit my answer to the coding portion

#

He tried to disprove my answer, couldn't, and then ignored the fact I got the optimal answer

#

"well at least you did brute force and realized you can optimize it"

#

Cringiest fucking thing I've heard

#

You have no business saying that if you're the one asking the problem

#

And the dude was really rushy when asking the trivia and resume stuff

#

How should I do that?

#

I remember the name of the guy

#

I'll reply to the recruiter

#

And just say that the guy was unprofessional

#

Yeah I'll tell the recruiter when I get the chance

#

Honestly never trusting jpmc with banking services if people like this are behind the helm

#

Same reason why I boycott Adobe

#

Had a very sussy acting interviewer once

#

Very rude and knew he wanted to fail me

#

Thanks for letting me know, I understand the decision and would still like to thank everyone for the time taken to interview me.

However, I'd like to report an incident of unprofessionalism within my technical interview. My interviewer had acted very skeptical of all my answers and tried to cast doubt onto them, and completely ignored my answer to the coding portion as it wasn't the approach he expected. Additionally, he had strongly attempted to question my choice of college major, which caught me off guard significantly and I felt it was notably disrespectful.

#

What should my footnote be on this email

#

Thank you for the understanding, and I appreciated being able to meet with the team at JPMC.

#

I guess I'll just have this as the footer
