[jovial latch]

c1 has given me so much anxiety

[tardy geode]

[vagrant escarp]

are these "Mandarin MUST" positions scams?

ive heard there are a lot of scam offers on linkedin and indeed

not sure if ive seen any yet

sweatshop?

[teal jackal]

Is it a chinese company?

I heard in singapore they use "mandarian required" on job postings to legally discriminate against non-chinese applicants

[hasty birch]

Was supposed to have my Flexport final 1 hr 30 mins from now and it was just cancelled LMAO

Oh well

[teal jackal]

they JUST filled?

shit

i hope the last person who signed their flexport offer doesnt see this chat

[lone rapids]

they signed so they good

[teal jackal]

i mean

like

"Damn i ruined so many peoples hopes and dreams"

[jovial latch]

Indeed has a lot of bullshit postings, the quality is dogshit

Worse than LinkedIn

[vagrant escarp]

wheres a good place to apply?

platform

[jovial latch]

Job boards just kinda suck in general, your best bet is just going through a few daily

LinkedIn, Glassdoor, indeed

Problem is a lot of companies love to put bullshit postings and have no regard for what entry level actually means

[tardy geode]

Linkedin , but rn it has a lot of bs posting where you hit apply and see that the job is actually posted way before or "you have already applied to this position"

[vagrant escarp]

so what makes a post a scam?

the only ones i find that are scam like are the ravature ones, where they "train you" and sell your contracts to other companies for shitty salaries

[nocturne oriole]

Short announcement to any friends, homies, users:

I'll be leaving the server, most likely for good. Definitely leaving as a mod. I've been modding for quite a while. And have always tried to keep a healthy environment across the board wherever I can. I've gradually become more intolerant of certain bad vibes here so I am usually aggressive and ban people. I'm not blaming myself per se, I think many situations have warranted it and I do prefer to cross the occasional line to keep things pushin P here because it's literally just Discord lol.

This place helped me a lot in early career but modding is very difficult and I saw it as a way I could give back. I spent early days shitposting a lot just like everybody here and even though I remember those days very well + I still see this as healthiest entry level CS community, it still has too many challenges and doesn't contribute a lot to my life now that I'm working. I wish you all the best, anybody is free to DM me for chatting or career tips. Thanks and much love!

[vagrant escarp]

gl on ur ventures kirb, appreciate u

[tardy geode]

the kirby gang will miss you

good luck fellow kirby ❤️ , i would want to stay in touch though @nocturne oriole

You are my favorite Kirby enjoyer

[vagrant escarp]

[errant gorge]

I’m a waddledee goofy ahh boy

[tardy geode]

lol

[vagrant escarp]

is glassdoor a good place to apply? i feel like the process takes longer compared to linkedin or indeed

[crystal hollow]

just look at the job postings on any website then go to the company page to apply

[static moth]

wtf im gonna miss u kirby

[hearty walrus]

[sonic coral]

[hearty walrus]

no idea

smartr is entirely focusing on being an ATS it seems

[pine topaz]

I love you Kirb, I wish the best for you and your future, you are always welcomed back

[unkempt forum]

do zoom recruiters call without notice

I missed a call from "zoom"

[teal jackal]

Yike

[fallen fox]

nope never

[meager terrace]

yike

[tardy geode]

secret = "ABC"
guess = "XYZ"

are a,b like pointers ? i don't understand this statement

consider secret and guess as those strings

[gray dagger]

Damn that’s probably the best explanation I’ve seen for that

[tardy ice]

are we able to see a list of all the companies we mentioned to the 2023 process bot?

it would be cool to see what we mentioned in the past, as users

[meager terrace]

that honestly would be cool

[meager terrace]

nah tht's different. they're saying like specific to themselves

[scenic wadi]

damn looking at 2023 numbers vs 2022 is depressing

[tardy geode]

thank you so much , that is clear af .

[steel pumice]

man this is depressing

are we allowed to apply to internship positions even if we already graduated

[jaunty storm]

Not really most jobs want a semester after.

Progressive Insurance told me that I did well in the behavioral interview despite me being super nervous inside. This was a day after the career fair in person. They said that they may call me to go to Cleveland for final rounds. Anyone know what to expect?

I’m still applying elsewhere just in case.

https://leetcode.com/discuss/interview-experience/2999784/Jane-Street-Capital-or-High-Freq-Trading-or-Quantitative-Role-or-2023

is anyone able to access this link?

[sour spindle]

No. It says "the topic does not exist"

[glossy galleon]

aw dang thanks for checking

[late kestrel]

just keep preparing and practicing, itll come easier

[jaunty storm]

I’ll keep at it.

[civic roost]

Hey guys, I got an offer from Deloitte and wrote an email to ask a couple of questions and to ask for a salary increase, would you guys take a look at the email I wrote?

[round lake]

Which position?

[tardy geode]

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/aanshulsadaria_i-was-at-dubai-airport-when-the-layoffs-in-activity-7032689432709275648-8cim?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

am i the only one who finds this cringe AF ?

[dusky tapir]

stacy recruiter will be all nice when shes giving me offer details and wants me to accept fast but when i approach her at the bar she says "ew go away"

[tardy geode]

[west egret]

It does come off a little as bragging that they weren’t affected.

[nova reef]

what's the point of making a post on how they're not affected

[nova reef]

ur not, it is cringe af

[sonic coral]

Bro wtf

This is the most cringe shit I’ve seen

Some people are really desperate for attention gahdamn

[west egret]

Like most of the post is centered around them.

[nova reef]

u know what made the post even worse?

that selfie

lmao

[west egret]

If they just wanted to offer help, they could have done that in a paragraph without a picture of themselves staring out some window.

[nova reef]

could honestly just like/support/repost other people's layoff posts, that would be enough already

[sonic coral]

It’s not even a selfie it’s like a professional framed photo for an article lmao

[tardy geode]

i reported the post lol

[tardy geode]

yeah LOL

[sonic coral]

Mans wrote a fuckin essay too

Like it wasn’t just 2 sentences or whatever

[tardy geode]

that too with emotes at the end of each para , attention seeking tactics 101

[pine topaz]

i get a lot of offers because recruiters thinks i am physically atractive, can you relate ?

[tardy geode]

[sonic coral]

Did it as well

[tardy geode]

prayge so that you get more offers

[fossil jewel]

bruh the picture

💀

wtf is wrong with ppl

some people think they're main characters

[night marsh]

Why tf does Canonical care about how I ranked in high school or why I like the arts lmfao

[tardy geode]

exactly LOL

[fossil jewel]

bruh i think ?@jovial latch? has his complains about this

[quasi umbra]

Is there anyone who has not gotten a reject from Flexport yet? Looking for some hopium

[dusky tapir]

dude is a swe 3 at google and he writes a post like he just beat cancer or some shit. it was never that serious

[night marsh]

nope

[sonic coral]

Fr bro

[night marsh]

Yeah I was talking to him

I'm chat gpting this entire essay and I'll probably answer less than half the questions

[fossil jewel]

i think they're based in Europe so maybe thats why its weird

[night marsh]

absolutely ridiculous

[sonic coral]

Like yeah layoffs were stressful for everyone but there’s no need to make a fuckin post unless you actually got laid off

[night marsh]

Maybe, I'm not too familiar with European companies

[jovial latch]

Angry times, angry fuckin times

[night marsh]

but I don't think they ask you to write your life story

[fossil jewel]

i think the linkedin algo prefers it when you do read more

gets it more to the front page

[night marsh]

I mentioned earlier in the thread but if the market wasn't so dogshit rn I'd just withdraw

Only reason I'm going forward is because this role is at the exact intersection of my abilities

[fossil jewel]

yeah thats fair, good luck

[night marsh]

Thanks

[fossil jewel]

good luck to all

[night marsh]

Thanks b

[sonic coral]

I heard rumors the reason canonical does this is to discourage external applicants and to mainly take referrals

[night marsh]

That could be valid

It's similar to SeatGeek which won't provide any relo support

[sonic coral]

So legally they do hire externally

It’s just a pain in the fuckin ass

[fossil jewel]

yeah thats how they do it

unfortunate

[night marsh]

I've heard the process is long asf

like 3-4 months long

[sonic coral]

But there’s no laws for how convoluted your interview process needs to be 💀

[fossil jewel]

@sonic coral how many rounds is g?

[night marsh]

unfortunately

[sonic coral]

For me it was an OA then straight to finals

[fossil jewel]

dude's cracked that he interviewed them instead

[sonic coral]

Finals was 4 rounds, 1 behavioral 3 technical

Everyone skipped phone this year lol

[fossil jewel]

ah

[sonic coral]

Also they’re making the finals 3 rounds now

1 behavioral 2 technical

[fossil jewel]

yeah that sounds more reasonable

[west egret]

20XX: your first born child must pass this OA to prove that you’re genetically qualified to work here

[sonic coral]

No OAs we’ll just scan your brain chip to see if you’re qualified

[fossil jewel]

instant reject

[sonic coral]

Hey at least it’ll be instant

[west egret]

Instantly finding out how dumb I am

[fossil jewel]

i think google replied to me once with a rej

months after

i forgot

[west egret]

You got a rejection?

[sonic coral]

After like 6 months I assume

[west egret]

I’m still waiting for mine from last season

[fossil jewel]

idek

[sonic coral]

Wait did the person who commented get laid off?

[fossil jewel]

all i remember is that last year i applied to lyft in aug and they sent rej in may

[sonic coral]

L3

Yes

[west egret]

people need to see a pic of him to feel inspired obv

[sonic coral]

Tf the guy say jealous for

[fossil jewel]

yeah he did this for the algo

[sonic coral]

Oh wait no SWE III is L4

I get it confused a lot

My offer letter says SWE II

Doesn’t exist

[west egret]

Intern?

[nova reef]

III is l4

[fossil jewel]

wait

isnt L4 not even that high up?

[sonic coral]

L4 is just L3 but you don’t need handholding

That’s literally it

[fossil jewel]

💀

bruh he's giving off "freshman in CS program who thinks he's the next iron man/elon/zuck"

some people need their posting privilege revoked 💀

[sonic coral]

Some people need their job revoked

That’s standard

[nova reef]

just hope ur manager is not an ex-googler when u join

or u might be hardcucked

happened to ppl already

[sonic coral]

Wait as in your manager being laid off?

My manager is ex-zon but he’s actually mad chill

[fossil jewel]

u guys got the big names

[sonic coral]

My old manager was ex schwab

But he got laid off

[fossil jewel]

lots of managers in jp are those who been there for a while

i mean their focus is probably good WLB for family

[sonic coral]

Two of my TLs each have 11+ yoe

[fossil jewel]

if the pay is good enough and WLB is top notch, why jump

esp if you have the stability

[sonic coral]

All of my tls have families so this checks out

[tardy geode]

💀

egoistic fucktard that guy is

[fossil jewel]

linkedin is really just facebook2.0

[vagrant escarp]

And controversial opinion but linkedin posts are either people looking to get a job handed to them because they got laid off or cringe posts to get their ego stroked by strangers

Some of the posts I see on LinkedIn I just feel second hand embarrassment for them

[sonic coral]

Ok bro if someone got laid off and is trying every avenue they got then it’s not cringe

Stroking your ego for attention however

[rain patio]

Lmao should i buy

Finna make youtube video

Fuck weong channel

[whole berry]

yes

the way most software engineers cant operate a stove

these MREs should be standard issue for most recruits

[vagrant escarp]

yeah that dude for sure was, that picture of him looking out the window with 1 hand up got me💀

[sonic coral]

Man thinks he’s in mad men or something

[pine topaz]

whats ur yt @rain patio

[rain patio]

Sanalovevlogs

[west egret]

Fake news

[shrewd ocean]

Is anyone getting any offers

What’s the strat given this market

[iron jacinth]

i am graduating in May and have no offers

Did 2 internships in summer and fall. Both managers say no HC but have given very high performance metrics 😦

[unkempt forum]

rip

[tardy geode]

i am graduating in may , no offer on top of that i am international .

😭

[iron jacinth]

We still have time

yeah but all i see are rejects everyday when i wake up

[shrewd ocean]

😩 how much tho

[tardy geode]

for me even they reject coz of sponsorship

idk man , its stressful af . waking up with anxiety everyday

[shrewd ocean]

It’s tough, don’t be too hard on urself

[tardy geode]

even there i get rejected

😭

[shrewd ocean]

😳

That’s a good idea

[tardy geode]

kaizen you international too?

[shrewd ocean]

Im Canadian

So Ye but I can get tn visa

[tardy geode]

oh nice

for TN visa is it just an app the firm needs to send right?

or is it like H1b lottery shit

[shrewd ocean]

Nah it’s not a lottery thing

For tn visa u need an offer, company doesn’t need to sponsor u

[tardy geode]

Ohh thats niceee

better than this H1b shit

[shrewd ocean]

Yeah but I need an offer 😂

I thought I would be hot

Commodity

New grad with internships

[tardy geode]

i have a time clock running

that's the issue

if i don't get anything until my EAD , post 90 days from it i would be kicked out

😭

[shrewd ocean]

Do u have any backups? Or are u trying to find ur first job

[tardy geode]

no backups 😦 . just applying tryna get OAs or somthin

[shrewd ocean]

My backup is nullified, my friends too 😭

Oh I tried cold emailing and reaching out to recruiters at startups, most of they say they aren’t hiring or want mid - senior tho

hopefully one will give me a chance

[night marsh]

Graduating May, did 2 internships previous summer and summer before that at a large tech company, plus worked for a local company as part of my senior design project.
No offers, 130 apps, 35 rejections and counting. Manager at the tech company as well as team wants me back as I got highest ratings, but it's a lot of work confirming a FT offer and it's ultimately up to a hiring manager separate from my team in the end. Still awaiting from them.

But it's also my fault; I applied very late in the process for FT because I realized 1/4 of the way through my master's that I didn't want to do master's anymore right after undergrad as I realized the mistakes of specializing too early. Plus I'm burning out and my mental health is starting to take its toll.

[nova reef]

tbf I think doing a master is not a bad choice given the current environment unless you rly dont like it

[visual canopy]

Any one know about Viasat interview process??

[night marsh]

I think so too, but I'm at the mental point where I'm gonna burn out if I pursue academia any further

[signal trellis]

sorry about this, we fixed this recently!

[idle stump]

Hey I am seeing microsoft sde roles on linkedin? Are those real or is it just a legal gimmick? I applied to a role that opened on 10th February and on 12th February they said role is filled up (saw it on action center)

[fallen fox]

same; i waited until december to apply

cursed move

[night marsh]

@vagrant escarp

[vagrant escarp]

@pulsar mural

[vagrant escarp]

@pulsar mural when did u graduate

[jaunty storm]

This cycle has been very difficult. If I had the confidence and mental health in better shape, I could’ve gotten a little farther.

But at least now I’ve been pushed to a new level. Would’ve kept my resume revisions in the low 60s. Went back to the drawing board again and again and I’m in the mid 70s with my revisions.

I’m thinking about pushing my graduation to Fall.

[tardy geode]

i revise my resume according to the Job Description so now i have like 22-23 resumes , with all combinations of tech stack i know and have worked on . this really helps

applying with the same one resume did no good i realised

[jaunty storm]

I don’t have a wide enough skill knowledge to pick and choose the stacks. I’m still learning them.

[tardy geode]

honestly this whole year is messed up kinda , Q1 Q2 is layoff szn ig . Not being pessimistic here but the way they been laying off in batches and "rounds" of layoffs makes me feel this

i am international , i am having nightmares everyday .

[jaunty storm]

Yet unemployed rate is very very low. Are we keeping the US from hitting 100?

[tardy geode]

i have been rejected on phone screens just coz i needed sponsorship

[jaunty storm]

I’ve been applying for new grad jobs since 2017.

COVID shattered my confidence in the meantime.

[tardy geode]

COVID is the root cause of all this bs

[jaunty storm]

My biggest fear is ending up like Ben Simmons and being a wash.

[tardy geode]

are you US or international?

[jaunty storm]

Despite all my efforts.

[jaunty storm]

US

[tardy geode]

oh i see, not in a as bad situation as me . just saying . i have limited time that makes it difficult 😦

did you try defense firms ? where they req US citizens

i see L3 Harris a lot

[jaunty storm]

I’ve had faced racism in the hiring process. Rejected return offer, fired from jobs, used as a tax write off.

[tardy geode]

omg

[jaunty storm]

I’ve applied a few times and get rejected quick.

[tardy geode]

try dassault systems

[jaunty storm]

I’ll apply right away.

[tardy geode]

yeah they been hiring peeps

[jaunty storm]

In the job hunt, I don’t see much opportunities unless I’m personally there to meet them or apply within hours of opening.

And LC was not an issues for me this time around. Coming close to 430.

I think closer to 500 is where I hit my limit and see diminishing returns.

Mostly seen med-hard problems.

[tardy geode]

oh i see ,what language do you use?

[jaunty storm]

And system design twice.

[jaunty storm]

Java.

[tardy geode]

oh ok

[jaunty storm]

I’ve considered Python, but I know Java well.

[tardy geode]

well you will get something , you don't lack the prep . don't feel demotivated . its not us its this trash market

even i feel demotivated so many times but somehow try to keep at it and not overthink . but yeah its easy to say this but hard to follow

[jaunty storm]

I’ve faced 2 bad markets going for new grad.

[jaunty storm]

I’ve had my dreams crushed so many times. It reached a point where I needed therapy and medicine. I basically can’t be alone or I put myself at risk.

It’s affecting my relationships.

[tardy geode]

don't be so hard on yourself .

[jaunty storm]

To lose my first job just weeks before COVID. It took everything from me.

Whole ordeal left a scar on my face.

Yet somehow I keep going.

[solemn spire]

We all are bro. Tired and exhausted

[solemn spire]

Like do you apply to most IT related jobs and put the experience/project related to it?

[gray nacelle]

how has the new grad process been for yall?

[jaunty storm]

I get a rejection every 48 hours.

2/3 of my last career fairs basically had 0 openings. Felt more like window shopping.

I’m gearing up for summer. Going to swing real hard with 2 new projects and 500 LC under my belt.

[gray nacelle]

Did you do internships?

[limpid surge]

very much depressing especially since i'm international

[jaunty storm]

Two.

I should’ve seen the signs and done a third.

[vagrant escarp]

Bro I get multiple every 24 hours lol

Everyone’s getting rejected

[jaunty storm]

I’m used to it.

After the first 1000 or so. I was numb to it.

[graceful crown]

how did you all access the ramp challenge?

it just shows a long string of some kind

[gray nacelle]

I suggest you try to figure it out

[vagrant escarp]

ye just grind that leetcode and do some side projects so u'll be ready when the opportunity presents itself

[graceful crown]

i already did but just wanted to make sure its not broken or something

[chilly burrow]

If you figured it out then you would kno it's not broken

[tardy geode]

yes until and unless ik the very basics of it , lets say if a job description has a lot of c,c++ . then i skip those since i haven't worked in it nor i will be able to learn it . but lets say it has graphql . then i put stuff related to it in my resume like a line or two in the experience section. ik the basics of it so . i don't fake stuff on resume tho

[tardy geode]

same

[chilly burrow]

U r correct

Gl

Ur not supposed to discuss oa/application questions in chat

[tardy geode]

do you guys even quantify stuff in the bullet points in your projects section?

[timber rock]

it's kinda hard to quantify things for projects imo

unless its like an actual app you published or something

[teal jackal]

Push so you can qualify for 2024 new grad

[timber rock]

but if it can be quantified, then definitely quantify it

[tardy geode]

yeah even i feel so

[tardy geode]

for me its just i did those things , not published the app somewhere

[solemn spire]

Nicee

[gray nacelle]

Does ramp sponsor visa?

[chilly burrow]

I believe so

[vital leaf]

hakuna matata

[vital leaf]

depends on role, what role you got into?

[grizzled bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/lion-king-hakuna-matata-timone-pumba-simba-gif-16070198

[vital leaf]

no offers still, hakuna matata

[vagrant escarp]

[vital leaf]

👌

tiktok baby ghosted me

[lethal spoke]

[graceful crown]

[earnest perch]

[split plaza]

have not heard back yet, applied 2/9

[chilly burrow]

Som1 on csMajors got an offer

Nope, new grad

[vagrant escarp]

how did u guys learn the CTF thing for ramp's initial question

[chilly burrow]

They deleted the offer details but iirc base was around 150k?

[vagrant escarp]

never even heard of it till i was filling out the application

[chilly burrow]

I don't rmbr wat TC was tho

[chilly burrow]

[rigid quail]

@pulsar mural is the one responsible for layoffs

[tardy geode]

[chilly burrow]

They deleted their message so I don't think I should share

As they obv don't want it public anymore

No clue 🤷‍♂️

[tardy geode]

[west egret]

Yeah but they consider california rolls to be sushi. Ban worthy IMO.

it’s fair to say that 2023 hiring so far has been about the same as late 2022 right

[shut crescent]

has any 2023 grad been given an offer so far, specifically in the bay area?

pls pm me 🙂

[grizzled bronze]

No, no one here has been getting any offers. I don't believe anyone who says they got an offer either!

[shut crescent]

ye markets pretty bad rn

i only got one cuz internship -> part time -> full time offer

cant even get other interviews rn

[vague furnace]

has anyone interviewed with apple? if yes, how was yalls experience?

[shut crescent]

i think ive been denied 15 times by them not going to lie

like my applcation lol. cant get an interview with them

[grizzled bronze]

Their loss, they're missing out on good talent

[pure mauve]

Does junior typically mean 1-2 yoe?

For junior SWE level

[split plaza]

0-2 I think

[shrewd ocean]

ty for the personalized message

did u follow up with them?

[jaunty storm]

Is it worth it?

[lone rapids]

Whats the link

[jaunty storm]

https://www.ziprecruiter.com/jobs/hybrid-enterprises-llc-3f58393d/junior-software-engineer-entry-level-14d68290?tsid=122001595&enc_campaign_id=13617c5b

[lone rapids]

Get free interview experience i would say

Moonlight if u r us citizen

[vagrant escarp]

bro 45k...

i guess its better than no job lol

[jaunty storm]

It's Florida.

[lone rapids]

U cant live with 45k no matter state

[vagrant escarp]

avg salary is like 50ish k tho

[jaunty storm]

I was paid less before as an engineer at an abusive job.

[vagrant escarp]

but yeah being paid 50k as a software engineer, id rather just work at mcdonalds

[jaunty storm]

It's just enough to live.

[shrewd ocean]

it is enough to just live but its not ideal, i would just keep it as something as a backup and try for something else even if i get the offer

[vagrant escarp]

yeah true, i guess it is better to get some experience vs none

just do it for a year if u really have to

[jaunty storm]

I know with luck I could pass something paying triple that eventually.

[shrewd ocean]

well with luck and skill im sure u can

[vagrant escarp]

and u could even take it, and keep interviewing

[shrewd ocean]

yeah this is a good idea

[jovial latch]

Lmao relocate to Florida for 50k

Yea no fuck that

[west egret]

I mean it could be the difference between that and unemployment

[tardy geode]

i had this question , so when you edit your linkedin public profile . should we keep the experience details hidden ? meaning only to be seen by connections . Theres a toggle button for it.

[lament summit]

Doesn’t really matter tbh

[peak pike]

I was offered a federal entry-level position, but the pay isn't that great (obv benefits are great), but its across the country and it's in the field of AI/machine learning where as most of my experience/knowledge is in front-end. I've never been particulary interested in AI/machine learning, but the experience would be great. Should I consider it?

[green oyster]

Hey Guys, Anyone Interviewed at Canonical?

[lone rapids]

Only offer?

[peak pike]

at the moment, yes

[nimble cosmos]

Im curious, how many yoe to move on from applying to new grad roles?

I'm guessing more than 1 year?

[pale kettle]

i think you can always apply up (in terms of experience); after 1 year it seems to me that you are no longer a "new grad"

[lone rapids]

Then well u should obviously consider it

[peak pike]

but what if I’m not really interested in AI/machine learning

[lone rapids]

Job or jobless you decide

[peak pike]

speaking mad facts

[tardy geode]

https://youtu.be/ubOhA56G_tk

[pine topaz]

yall can leetcode but yall dont know how to talk to an attractive recepsionist about late stage capitalim

[pine topaz]

well your behind then all of us then

[tardy geode]

lol that video is so apt

[hearty walrus]

bruh there's this entry level web dev job posting i saw

Angular was released in 2016

[gray dagger]

Probably meant angularjs

[pine topaz]

anime pfp t_t

[nova reef]

[tardy geode]

fk bloomberg

[teal jackal]

anime girl pfp

You can only use this command in 2022_winter_intern_process, 2022_summer_intern_process, 2022_grad_process, 2022_fall_intern_process, 2023_summer_intern_process, 2023_winter_intern_process, 2023_grad_process

[timber rock]

yo anyone got a job for me

thank you. i'll start tomorrow

we dont

[teal jackal]

ill sell u a job for tree fiddy

[timber rock]

im only in process for 3 companies now, 2 have ghosted me for over a month and 1 wants me to make a whole ass app for them

[teal jackal]

theres more to this based lad

Grade: It exists
Done with school forever
Skills: Eric

[teal jackal]

is it a startup?

[timber rock]

nah

it's a big digital bank

[teal jackal]

interesting

[timber rock]

the take home is kinda cool tp be honest. they let you use their development api that they use in the cpmpany

[teal jackal]

I know shopify and cloudflare used to force applicants to do takehome apps as their auto OA

[timber rock]

but its such an effort

yeah i got cloudflare's one last year, didn't even bother doing it

yeah

i kinda like the companies that do recruiter screen > oa, the bank I'm doing it for rn does that

it at least means you'll most likely get a response

expedia was similar, oa > 2 hour final (reject tho)

[scenic wadi]

expedia process was so nice

application -> oa -> interview -> decision took less than 2 weeks

[teal jackal]

it aint nice unless it ends in an offer imo

[tardy geode]

imo amazon might change this , this is the one of the reasons they grew so big ass

[timber rock]

No

Starling bank

[nova reef]

a lot of them are already gone cuz they're on visa

cucked by the delay

[tardy geode]

na , they will do some RA/TA shit or some contract job in the meantime . ik a few peeps who have planned this but its amazon they can even bail out last minute

[nova reef]

yea that's fair

[fossil jewel]

i mean prepare for it

in case it does happen

dont wanna fear monger but the postpone was likely due to figuring out financials

[tardy geode]

is hackajob a staffing agency?

[timber rock]

yes

[tardy geode]

bruhh

[teal jackal]

historically most voluntarily left after <2 years for a better faang or sde2 elsewhere, but a non-trivial portion gets pipped

[shrewd ocean]

yeah my friend just started as a new grad, he said its a lotta work

yeah but they do shove money down ur throat

🤔

[shut crescent]

shit boys im going in for a negotiation call tomorrow

[shrewd ocean]

goodluck

[pine topaz]

[tardy geode]

[rain patio]

lmao

wtf

[pine topaz]

who'se the bootlicker though

dont be afriad to dox him

[sonic coral]

Lmao is this a slack channel for fighting amazon rto

[west egret]

the only thing worse than rescinding offers is delaying to rescind

[nova reef]

how much did amazon give for delaying the offers?

15k?

pre tax right

o shit

[rain patio]

thats fire

[arctic pine]

Fax that’s salt on the wound

[west egret]

13k for lack of stability though

[nova reef]

shouldve taken my zon offer

jk

[west egret]

not worth the mental anxiety

[tired thicket]

Does Expedia only ghost or do they just take a while to review?

[jovial latch]

was up y'all

l3harris did a funny, after they rejected me, i spoke with em at the career fair, different guy, same location. then i get an email from the same recruiter as the first time asking for interview dates

so i guess the takeaway is that recruiters dont put any effort into their jobs and shits fuckin random

idk we'll see what happens

itll be hilarious if i interview with the same people though

that would be a bit awkward

[jaunty storm]

I was able to undo rejections at career fairs.

[jovial latch]

anyway another week, another day of me asking if anyones heard from c1 bout the mldp program, the ah powerday or whatever

recruiter told me last monday they were still in the process of deciding

[high arrow]

I haven't heard anything yet

[earnest perch]

same

[grizzled bronze]

Soon!

[earnest perch]

i barely see any new grad roles anymore

[timber rock]

yea the past few weeks ive just been throwing out some intern applications

havent seen many new ng postings

[tardy geode]

depressed is an understatement

😭

[dusky tapir]

Brennan desling wants me frfr

[late kestrel]

ong im such a catch

[vagrant escarp]

@pulsar mural

[unkempt forum]

https://tenor.com/view/vanitas-gif-22402357

[valid bramble]

so depressed. Interned at Meta, no return offer. Amazon offer delayed. I've been applying since June 2022. Still no offer

[night marsh]

Same here. Keep your head up my friend, hope things work out as well

[vagrant escarp]

yeah you arent alone man

[night marsh]

For anyone who worked at L3Harris and doesn't have C experience, how did it go?

[vagrant escarp]

u got this! just keep working on skills that can make you hirable and eventually things will work out

[night marsh]

I'm pretty awful at C

Golang simp

[vagrant escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/zyzz-gif-25681250

[gray nacelle]

Its so bad rn dont worry were all in the same boat

[obsidian crater]

haha it's seeming over for me

thinking about just ldaring

same

[vagrant escarp]

lol

i want job too

[obsidian crater]

I've applied to so many places

[vagrant escarp]

same

[obsidian crater]

Nothing

[vagrant escarp]

500+ at least

maybe 600 now

ye..i wonder when this hiring winter will end

[obsidian crater]

same

[vagrant escarp]

when do u graduate?

i already graduated

ye u got some time before u really have all of ur time

just think that theres people who's been graduated since like fall of last year and still no job

[obsidian crater]

SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE

[vagrant escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/biden-i-did-that-gif-22904176

lol just memin on joe

yeah it is what it is

[obsidian crater]

I'm honestly thinking about a career in academia

Sick of being a slave to corpos

[vagrant escarp]

hmm like work for the government?

[obsidian crater]

university or something

[vagrant escarp]

ah

[obsidian crater]

my profs make $150K in LCOL area

Some good ones make $200K

[vagrant escarp]

damnnnn

[timber rock]

want jo b

[vagrant escarp]

same!!

[obsidian crater]

Idk want a job first

[timber rock]

Applied to another 21 today

[vagrant escarp]

stay optimistic

[obsidian crater]

doomer

[vagrant escarp]

i think there are a lot of jobs still, just imagine being the hiring person and looking at all the entry lv people

half of em probably don't know how to code

so they gotta filter out all the scrubs

[obsidian crater]

True

One of my friends graduated

But he doesn't do leetcode and refuses to

Jobless since May 2022

[vagrant escarp]

if ur a experienced engineer, i dont think there will ever be a shortage of jobs

[obsidian crater]

blind75 is hard man

I can't do half the problems on it

[vagrant escarp]

this is the exact reason tho...theres people faking it and not enough actual good engineers

so it got over saturated

if u are a good engineer, the demand will be there

and especially since we are all at the entry lv, they gotta filter through a lot of bull shit

[obsidian crater]

I just don't get dynamic programming lol

Everything else I have done on blind75

[vagrant escarp]

just memorizing isnt a good approach tho

[obsidian crater]

Idk man, I got asked a DP question on an OA that wasn't from blind 75

[vagrant escarp]

gotta understand it and know the trade offs between different solutions

[obsidian crater]

That OA was ridiculous though

6 problems in 90 minutes

[timber rock]

oas are usually not pulled from leetcode

but interviews are

[vagrant escarp]

talking through that during interviews will show the interviewer u are better than the other scrubs that just spit out an answer and not really talk through their work

[obsidian crater]

That's some problems

But not for most DP problems

[vagrant escarp]

i found that writing down the problem and trying to spot the trend/pattern helps a lot

if u see that a new solution builds ontop of the previous iterations

goddamn really?

they be giving hard to new grads?

[whole berry]

and org

lol

usually youll find this in AWS or robotics

but even then this is rare

if you get this in an interview just try your best

[timber rock]

they can, it's all rng

i got 2 hards for intern

[obsidian crater]

it's over boyyos

just lay down and rot

There are too many problems to "memorize"

[timber rock]

Lmao my oa basically told me step by step what to do, it was barely even a question

Me rn

[vagrant escarp]

i have 2 potential doors atm, if they all end up not working out its gonna suck😂

how do u guys feel about working internationally?

[timber rock]

I've been waiting nearly 2 months for my northrop grumman final after being told I passed lol

[vagrant escarp]

ASUS

yeah

when i talked to the recruiter, they said the pay is competitive with US

[timber rock]

I'd do it depending on location

[vagrant escarp]

and cost of living there is lower, so if he wasn't lying about that, it would sound attractive

[timber rock]

Currently in the process woth Sony in tokyo

No I haven't got the final yet

[vagrant escarp]

tokyo sounds nice

[timber rock]

Did both oas a few months ago

[vagrant escarp]

but isnt cost of living there high?

i dont really know but just guessing

[timber rock]

Cheaper than london, salaries are low but I think Sony pays well

[vagrant escarp]

yeah im really curious to see what the offer at ASUS will be like if i do end up getting an offer

when i searched up what they pay SWEs there it was like 30k/year

[pine topaz]

wlb sounds horrible though, idk if it changed recently

[vagrant escarp]

but i think if they hire from the U.S. i dont see how they can ever convince people if they paid that low

[timber rock]

Wlb in big international companies are generally fine from what I've heard

But japanese companies are bad

[vagrant escarp]

i actually don't care about WLB

[pine topaz]

dam, you willing to do 996?

[vagrant escarp]

dont mind be worked

[pine topaz]

[vagrant escarp]

dont have a family yet

work to get more experience

does ASUS have good reputation if I end up looking to transition to a fanng?

[timber rock]

Probably above average just cause its a tech company

[dawn sequoia]

i think it's less about the rep of a previous company and more about what you did and your impact

you can prob transition into faang after working at any company if you did a good job, became a better engineer

[prime palm]

I mean, what's the alternative?

It's better than having no job

Imo you don't need experience from a certain subset of companies to get into faang, you just need experience from any company in general

[vagrant escarp]

yeah that is true, but just trying to think if it would be worth moving to taiwan if they pay was ass just to get the experience

[prime palm]

oh christ

i don't know if that move would be worth it

damn

i mean, if you like travelling and have any particular interest in going to taiwan, sure?

[fathom dagger]

I graduated December 2022

Do I belong here on the 2022_grads channel

[meager terrace]

nah you a 2023

[fathom dagger]

ight

[prime palm]

nah

i thought the same

go to the channel you're hoping to work in basically

i'm also a dec 2022 grad but i'm working 2023

[fathom dagger]

right

gotchu

you guys found jobs or not yet

[timber rock]

no :)

[prime palm]

yeah but i lucked out severely

i didn't bother having false hope my summer internship would give me a return offer

so i just started recruiting like asap in july

[graceful crown]

Bro same

[raw echo]

There should be meta internship group therapy

[graceful crown]

No offer yet tho

[fathom dagger]

oh nice

[prime palm]

oh you were also facebook?

[fathom dagger]

where if you don't mind me asking

[prime palm]

ill dm you

[fathom dagger]

ok no worries

I'm stilll looking

:/

it's so fucked

like it's making me depressed

[prime palm]

ehhh it's my personal belief things will get better around march / april

[fathom dagger]

it's fucking with me

[prime palm]

yeahhh i understand

i completely feel u on that one

[fathom dagger]

I'm also ass idk

I don't feel like I'm good enough

graduated with no internship experience

[arctic pine]

I have ptsd from reorgs, recruiters lying to my face, and waiting for GE return offer when I was actually EE

[fathom dagger]

so It's really tough out there

[timber rock]

same - graduating in may with no internships, flunked my 3 good company interviews (optiver, bloomberg and expedia) in november and barely had anything since

[fathom dagger]

it's really tough

[prime palm]

i was just MA

:(

i thought i would get EE though :(

[prime palm]

bloomberg fked me

i was so upset

[timber rock]

bro when i interviewed there, the ONE topic i hadnt had time to study yet was dp

"what are the chances they ask me dp? its only 1 question"

and of course i got dp

[fathom dagger]

bro

it's so fucked that they ask dp

[arctic pine]

It’s alright cause u got a good offer right ?

[timber rock]

at this point im most likely going for a masters and gonna try again for new grad 2024

its the only offer ive managed to get lol

unless the few companies im still in the process for pull through

[fathom dagger]

I'm also thinking about a masters

[prime palm]

i'm satisfied

i would've preferred going back to facebook though

[fathom dagger]

but like it's not gonna do anything to me

unless I wanna go into academia

[timber rock]

yea it just lets me try again in the next cycle and maybe get an internship this summer instead

[graceful crown]

How y’all getting interviews without internships?

Whats on ur resume?

[fathom dagger]

lmao

literally

[arctic pine]

Kind of a shit show rn with the flattening stuff tho

[fathom dagger]

I have no internships

[graceful crown]

[timber rock]

[vagrant escarp]

[fathom dagger]

[vagrant escarp]

i have 2 that i did the initial screen with, 1 seem like a decent fit, the other not super, but I'll entertain the company

[prime palm]

[vagrant escarp]

and the 3rd one, I just did a technical survey for the company, hopefully that will lead into an interview

[fathom dagger]

Does anyone know what happened to the Kirb 350? I bookmarked it to use later since it looked awesome but it appears to have been deleted when I tried to open the spreadsheet now. Anyone know if there's a version available online or if someone managed to copy it?

[raw echo]

i dont rlly see the point in gatekeeping a list of problems that are compiled: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ACfXxulq-39Xu3ncCYbG69IEPDXbKNS_U2AIVm6Lc0w/edit#gid=0

[vagrant escarp]

whats the kirb350? lol

isnt the neet150 and blind75 enough?

[nimble cosmos]

Blind75 is enough imo

[vagrant escarp]

i do 150 for extra practice

[neat umbra]

Thank you!

[neon perch]

Does Barclays usually respond after a perfect OA for that developer analyst program?

The automated OA thing

[arctic pine]

Got this email from Flexport this morning

Although prob still a reject eventually

[graceful crown]

What step was this?

Onsite or team matching?

[fossil parrot]

Is salesforce giving 150k base in seattle for return interns entry level?

[tardy geode]

yeah ig

[nova reef]

not sure bout return intern, but I know two ppl who got their offer in seattle and they both have ~130k base

[arctic pine]

Lmao it was recruiter call before on-site. I went on a trip to Asia so I just delayed it for a month

[graceful crown]

What position was it for?

[arctic pine]

new grad swe

[neon perch]

Masters?

[acoustic skiff]

Hey did you get an answer to this?

[arctic pine]

Nah bachelors

[night marsh]

If I see one more Associate/Entry level position that requires 2 YoE 🤬

[livid yew]

True

[faint umbra]

I don't even see new grad position anymore 😢

[night marsh]

That too

[tardy geode]

i have stopped caring about it and been applying to exp roles but that shit also ain't working due to shit ton of laid off peeps in the market

[raw echo]

New grad vs Google with 2 yoe is a hard sell 😭

[knotty talon]

🥲

[errant karma]

Time to be a serious farmer

[autumn jolt]

Frustration alert: I can't believe how unprofessional and inconsiderate the Walmart recruiter was! After months of searching for job opportunities, I finally finally received a call from one place on Thursday last week, and they insisted on scheduling the interview for Tuesday (today). I put everything aside, including my midterms, to focus on preparing for the interview. I even took the time to learn a new tech stack that I had no prior experience with, just to increase my chances of success. I have been prepping so insanely for the last 3-4 days and was so determined to get a job this time.

And then, just before the interview, I had to chase the recruiter for the Zoom link they forgot to send me, only to receive an email from them saying they needed to talk to me. Couldn't they have told me earlier that they were not going to consider me? Why keep me hanging like that? They not only wasted my time but also shattered my hopes. I'm so so so disappointed. There's no energy and hope left now

[pure mauve]

Lol walmart is ass my guy. I remember they forgot to send me a rejection letter a while ago

also i remember I scheduled myself a final interview by changing one of their URL links to add my name for a final invite haha

[grizzled bronze]

Did that final interview actually happen?

[lone rapids]

Dm the trick pls

[jaunty storm]

I go to career fairs now. More openings that way.

[pure mauve]

they canceled it the day of.

[lone rapids]

lol

[pure mauve]

i think i just changed the url link from phone to final or something

dont remember awhile ago tho

[teal jackal]

indicative of the quality there tbh

[pure mauve]

nah yea it b shit

engineers dont get paid enough to give af

walmart ecommerce is shit, its the worst of amazon, ebay, and aliexpress combined tbh

I see no reason why anyone would in good faith use it

aliexpress = no guarantee of quality
ebay = open platform, any scumbag can sell there
amazon = shit on walmart aint cheap

They're also forcing employees back into office and relocating to Bentonville from other more desirable locations https://www.wsj.com/articles/walmart-to-close-three-tech-hubs-tells-tech-staff-to-return-to-offices-3fb131e4

[vagrant escarp]

It’s a dying business

my dad considered moving there for walmart after getting laid off in 2011 but decided he didn't want to subject us to having to live in bentonville

so he held out another month

[jovial latch]

Oh hey I can remind everyone how shit Walmart is

Their process is notably dogshit

[teal jackal]

Looks like walmart is still the same scum of the earth that it was in the past

damn

[vagrant escarp]

I feel like the reason they are trying to get people to relocate to bentonville is so they could lure them away from the competition in the tech hubs

This is so fucking funny to me holy shit

Isn't this why you look at fucking resumes first

Jesus Christ

[jovial latch]

Companies want you to relocate to shitty locations cause they're the only place you can work for in said shit location

Sunk cost n all rhat

[grizzled bronze]

Or force people to self-layoff themselves, because who the fuck would wanna relocate to Bentonville

[jovial latch]

Also yes, fuck Walmart

Buncha cunts

Nothing insults you by a non technical recruiter saying you're overqualified cause you have a master's

Idiots
