[late kestrel]

[peak pike]

[brisk meadow]

I've done probably 500~ apps in the past 2 months and have had maybe 3-4 calls. Just one offer though (declined, job was trash turns out)

But yeah my app/call ratio is bad & I can't figure out wh y 😦

[split igloo]

[split igloo]

the market is just bad

[brisk meadow]

[split igloo]

[grizzled bronze]

2024

[split igloo]

time to fill the gap with master or phd

[pine topaz]

emplyers will hire the 2024 grad pipeline

not 2023 pipeline

[brisk meadow]

rip hoping to start my phd in 2024 LOL was hoping to snag a quick tech job for a year then bail & do that

looks like my plan ain't working

yeah I feel that. Also putting money on hold for 4~ years. I just really like doing physics research & know I'll probably have ot leave that world once I'm done school I'm not ready 🙃

[sharp cove]

If you need sponsorship, that would not be truthful

[tardy geode]

200 ? bruh i have put in close to 1000 , been applying since last oct

bloomberg ghosted me after onsite

another startup took 4 fucking rounds and said we can't sponsor so fuck off

yeah

its there in #1019675142248468601

fuck this shit man , it was my dream . especially i had this dream and still have to work and live in the bay area

also they filed H1 for converted interns that makes me feel more sad

my org , my manager were utter BS i feel

[grizzled bronze]

They're making employees move to Bentonville now though

[tardy geode]

my whole team was in bay area

[split igloo]

def not, I would avoid any possible legal issues, especially when it comes to the immigration law

[tardy geode]

yeah ik lol , one employee ik is gonna move from san bruno to bentonville

no , don't do that

[split igloo]

The wording starts with 'Now or will you need ~'that literally asks you if you have any unlimited work authorization (citizen or GC holder)

[tardy geode]

also he recently bought a house in san jose

[rain patio]

ok but he still has a job

[tardy geode]

he is trying to switch

[grizzled bronze]

[peak pike]

[livid yew]

Not like that's illegal

With privacy and shit

Don't you get it. Privacy is over

Wake up

https://www.linkedin.com/in/*redacted*

I was about to throw that AWS cert in the trash

[distant rampart]

congrats!! u deserve it

[brisk meadow]

Congrats man!!

so you're saying AWS is worth learning 👀

[daring gazelle]

h&r block

dude takes time to respond as well

applied like months till they call

[daring gazelle]

nah

Azure is better

h&r usee azure

but I list equivalent cloud services in AWS

[livid yew]

[daring gazelle]

since stuff like infrastructure as code carried over

idk why

but I interviewed for so many companies

all use Azure

[west egret]

[livid yew]

one more meeting today

[late kestrel]

whatchu scared of

[west egret]

🤔

[west egret]

we'll prob find out who each other are when we start anyways lol

[daring gazelle]

worth to learn about cloud concepts

but just study for the Azure equivilant

idk but companies love Azure now like mid size ones

at least the ones that interviewd me before

flung most of them

[late kestrel]

ofcofc

[west egret]

sees guy filling up gallon container with milk

"hey cheddy"

damn you didn't include all the underscores

[tardy geode]

ban LC style interviews

[livid yew]

[tardy geode]

@rain patio 💀 lol

[tawdry snow]

is it worth it trying to figure out which test service a company uses

and then spam practice that test service

or fuck it just pick one and do a bunch and i should be fine

[fallen fox]

why does every single entry-level role on linkedin require 2/3+ years of exp??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

[tardy geode]

even if you have exp and apply you get rejected

FML

[chilly burrow]

Just practice leetcode

Unless it's Codesignal, which in that case you can scam

[sleek owl]

How?

I want to scam my way into a job

[chilly burrow]

Well not scam per se

But you can practice codesignals

Until you get a good score

[quiet crater]

grinding leetcode is scamming a job

bc actual dev work is nothing like leetcode

codesignal: 849

tc: higher than yours

[civic magnet]

what about digitalocean

[shut crescent]

honestly i like entry LC style questions, some of them are exactly the same from the top 75 list

[tardy geode]

@quiet crater be like "sikeee"

[vague furnace]

thoughts on Peloton yall? I'm kind of desperate for a job and am interviewing with them. but also nervous theyll go under soon loool

[night marsh]

If you won't take them I can take it from you

[modern spade]

Hey thoughts on epic vs a 100k tc remote offer?

[pure mauve]

Lmfao just bombed a system design interview

Fucking yoloed that shit

how tf do we even know what they expect

[late kestrel]

depends on the company and how much you value remote

i personally would rather have 5day in office vs full remote

[tardy geode]

yo chill you got 5 offers , dw .

[foggy vortex]

@modern spade can i dm you about epic? : O

[modern spade]

i guess would epic be more valuable for career growth or a company that might have a more modern tech stack but pay less

[modern spade]

ofc, shoot me a msg

[tiny cape]

Anyone else getting legit zero interviews ? I have internship experience, projects, good gpa, etc. I've just been getting auto rejected or ghosted from every company

I was getting plenty of interviews for internships now that its time for the real thing I can't even get one

[night marsh]

🖐🏽

[night marsh]

It's an awful market right now, it's not you

[tiny cape]

damn well thats good to hear

I heard about all the tech layoffs but damn this is terrible

[night marsh]

I posted earlier in #layoffs_support about my progress in response, but yeah it's REALLY bad right now.

[tardy geode]

2023 grads in a nutshell

[tiny cape]

damn like what are we all gonna do lmao

gonna have to pickup a waiter job or something 😦

[fallen fox]

my bills are catching up as well

i need a job

2022 grads after a 30 minute zon interview

200k

[steady sage]

I wish. Jobless since graduating in June. Market has been bad for a while.

[fallen fox]

i should've mentioned early 2022

[faint igloo]

google recommendations be like
https://venturebeat.com/programming-development/you-need-to-perform-15-better-in-a-technical-interview-now/

[steady sage]

fair

[steady sage]

tfw no baseline to know what performing 15% better would even feel like

[night marsh]

Same thing can also be applied to applications

Seems like some places you gotta know 95% of what they put or else meh

[fallen fox]

recruiter ghosted me once; rescheduled; ghosted me again

[lone rapids]

samee

[clear bear]

Anyone know what to expect from the JavaScript Veeva OA? Searched in the chat but could only find Java.

[fallen fox]

if the market wasn't bad enough; the recruiters themselves treat you like shit

[covert patio]

L3 Harris needs to chill, they are literally taking up 90% of the space in every job board

[neon perch]

Obviously, LC is total bullshit. It’s super fun but not the right way to judge students

[faint umbra]

Valdiate health bullshit process

Do you agree to our interview process: Question form ⇒ Take home “Challenge” ⇒ 4 interviews ⇒ Paid micro project ⇒ Meet the Team Day ⇒ Offer!

[brisk meadow]

hoping I can do 30% worse in 2024 & still get the job 😎

[sleek owl]

LITERALLY

[fallen fox]

recruiter ghosted me twice; rescheduled for the third time

i bet she'll ghost me again 💀

[late kestrel]

wow cant believe ud do this to me

[jaunty basalt]

@late kestrel thank you

[late kestrel]

[tardy geode]

[rain patio]

ure pray to satan

[late kestrel]

i think that implies he is the devil praying for a job

[tardy geode]

even satan is praying that we get a job

[sleek owl]

Options if no job:

• OnlyFans
• Scammer

[dawn sequoia]

you forgot lazy couch potato slob with +50lbs of bubbly fat

[sleek owl]

[sonic coral]

Live in parents basement any% wr

[sleek owl]

International student 😭

[grizzled bronze]

They need to apply for intern conversions?

[tardy geode]

can't even imagine how fucked ng2024 is gonna be

zscaler closed their new grad role which they had posted in mere 5 hours 💀 yesterday

yeah

[grizzled bronze]

Tbh they could have opened it just to fill it for an intern conversion or a candidate they already identified

[tardy geode]

its that crazy

in 2 hours it had 3k applicants

i asked the recruiter , she said no it was a fresh role

[slender niche]

What companies are actively hiring?

[grizzled bronze]

2024 is gonna be great for new grads

[grizzled bronze]

L3 Harris

[slender niche]

Do they sponsor H1B?

[tardy geode]

they want citizen + clearance

[grizzled bronze]

Yes why

[tardy geode]

L3 harris have infinite HC

[slender niche]

Shit

[tardy geode]

[slender niche]

Other than L3 ?

[tardy geode]

L3 Harris is immune to hiring freeze coz they coming in hot for the market

[foggy vortex]

is L3 actually hiring ? my 3 apps have been in limbo for a while

[sleek owl]

Yeah a few people already got the email 😭 I am waiting for mine

Is crazy how a company like google isn’t hiring even a low number of new grads

[sonic coral]

We literally might have round 2 of layoffs my guy

[tardy geode]

ok so lets hope for ng2025 now 💀

it would be better than 2024

[daring gazelle]

what if you are a guy?

[sleek owl]

both still apply

[daring gazelle]

and starve?

[grizzled bronze]

Oh that sucks sorry, I assumed interns who converted return to their same team

[tardy geode]

why is google team matching phase always a pain?

like what is so special about their TM compared to other firms?

[verbal ore]

Nothing. They just know they can treat like shit cuz anybody would salivate at the mouth for a position

[tardy geode]

oh i see

[split igloo]

I know 2 Indian friends, one got Meta return offer rescinded so decided to go for master, and the other bud said "ah fuck it", also applied for grad

[tardy geode]

[split igloo]

I might consider master atm..

[tardy geode]

were they citizens?

[split igloo]

I am not sure market is gonna unfold next yr

[split igloo]

oh on they are all international

[tardy geode]

if not then they got shit ton of money back home

damn

they got lot of monies ig

[split igloo]

lol one of their family runs hospital in the capital as far as I know

doctor family bro

[tardy geode]

BS+MS in US is expensive if you come from india

oh then fine

doctors earn loads back home

[split igloo]

but he's cool dude super chill

feel sorry that I know how hard he's been grinding

[tardy geode]

nice

BS itself is so expensive

as an international

[split igloo]

true, but still you can get some scholarship

[tardy geode]

still getting that is hard

like you got to be an allrounder

[split igloo]

nah, I am just a weeb who likes to code, but still managed to get some money for being a nerd

but yeah I really wish things get better soon

[tardy geode]

1am reject hit different

[pine topaz]

is it more painful to be rejected by your crush or a job application?

@pulsar mural do you mind sharing? I believe you have experienced both

a lot

[bold pier]

You guys have time to have a crush?

I haven't seen a person in weeks

[tardy geode]

job app , what is crush?

[faint umbra]

Does sending message to Startup's on Y-combinator works ? I sent almost 15 and not even got one reply. Has anyone received anything ?

[tardy geode]

the first thing i will do after getting an offer is ask my crush out deadass without any fear of rejection

[bold pier]

I got a few rejects.

[tardy geode]

[faint umbra]

Did u get message in your inbox ?

[pine topaz]

@tardy geode maybe ask her out now so u can get gc?

🧠

[tardy geode]

she international like me , but very pretty

[pine topaz]

why the world must be so cruel

international studenets who date each other should be able to get greencard

[tardy geode]

[tardy geode]

It ain’t over until its over , the grind must go on my fellow friends

[daring gazelle]

easy for her then

men over here are thirsty

like they have not drank water for years

[daring gazelle]

never had a crush I dont like sharing my stuff with anyone

[shut crescent]

its def not a bad move

economy is prob going to stay shit for another year

[tardy geode]

there’s this company called candid health , they called me to inform about resume rejection

💀💀💀💀

[jaunty basalt]

They’re not so candid about it

[lunar hatch]

wait fr?

[lunar hatch]

which position was that

nah i have an interview with them today

just wanted to know whether they sponsor visa

[distant rampart]

weird. i also got resume rejected from them but didn

get a call

[tardy geode]

it was some frontend position

[grizzled bronze]

Gotta be kidding me, what'd they say in the call?

[tardy geode]

i don't remember much was half asleep , i guess they didn't sponsor for that particular role

could have just emailed me smh

lol

[patent talon]

is there a cs server equivalent but with Data/ Business Analysts majors

[tardy geode]

maybe you can find it on reddit

[brisk meadow]

Wake up
Check e-mail
Rejection letters

Many such cases

[outer radish]

Yo does anyone have the kirb 350

Thats not deleted

[glacial brook]

thanks this is helpful

[outer radish]

oh bless up

does everyone just do by topic or do they do random.

[lunar hatch]

Anyone knows maven security

Got an oa c++ only

[vague furnace]

Dude Candid Health has been annoying lol. I think there’s been a handful of ppl on here who have been interviewed, and they still haven’t found a match. They need to change their hiring/interviewing practices.

[tardy geode]

oh i see

[tardy geode]

what's veeva process like

after apply do they send OA?

[earnest perch]

there's a recruiter call first but the available dates will be like a couple of months out from when they email you 🙃

they seem to have raised their bar as well cuz my recruiter cancelled the call right on the day of the interview

[tardy geode]

so after resume screen you get asked for scheduling the call

[earnest perch]

yeah

i'm wondering if I should apply again after tweaking my resume

they seem to want people with java exp so tweak your resume with java buzzwords or smth

[tardy geode]

oh shit

i already applied with js java stuff

[earnest perch]

that should be fine. i think they do both js and java

but i heard the OA is usually in java

[tardy geode]

ok so after the call you get the OA

[earnest perch]

yeah

i think there's a lot of people here who interviewed with veeva so just search around the server

[tardy geode]

bruhhh , rn the latest date which i heard is june so post that call in june one would get OA 💀 that's late af for students on visa and graduating in may

[earnest perch]

yeah its dumb

[lunar hatch]

Yeah I tried expediting the process

[clear bear]

just check the calendly regularly. i had my initial call scheduled for late april, then got it moved to yesterday.

[lunar hatch]

And no one responded

Although my experience was like js + kotlin

Not sure if that works

Kotlin was basically a better Java lmao

[tardy geode]

i applied today , how long do they take to get back atleast

i had applied back in october 2022 and they rejected me around 20th dec 2022 . applied again today . that time my resume was kinda trash i feel

[clear bear]

i think they got back to me within the same week of my app checking for my graduation date? then the invite to do the 30min screening was the week after

[tardy geode]

oh cool

[brisk meadow]

is linkedin premium worth? it seems so expensive

[tardy geode]

ask linkedin employees for a premium

[brisk meadow]

wait like message them on linked in and ask for free premium?

dam that's really good to know I'll go looking for the linkedin folks on linkedin

[tardy geode]

yea

[fallen fox]

THIS CONDUENT RECRUITER GHOSTED ME THREE TIMES ☠️

[pure mauve]

LinkedIn premium worth

[brisk meadow]

What do you find you mostly use it for?

[cloud zinc]

just got rejected from veeva

should've applied earlier

smh

[pure mauve]

Only dms

[pure mauve]

DMs. So worth.

The amount of interviews I got from DMs was something else

[brisk meadow]

dam eh? Might have to look into it. It's just a shame it's so expensive if it was like $20/mo I'd do it for sure.

What sort of things did you usually say in DMs to recruiters? I assume you mostly sent dms to the recruiter of the jobs you applied for

If that's a wrong assumption please correct me 😛

[pure mauve]

LinkedIn premium auto generates ur dm to the job role

So it’s basically a click

[brisk meadow]

true but I figure recruiters know the auto reply now so you gotta do some custom message or they just ignore it. Is that not true?

[pure mauve]

They always end up looking at my profile

[chilly burrow]

ChatGPT

[brisk meadow]

LOL I'd be lying if I said I hadn't used that before, but usually I just type up a little blurb myself

[lone rapids]

How does consultancy companies work? Does anyone know how much you get paid for contracts hourly usually

[graceful crown]

25-30 mostly

40 max i think

[prime palm]

hell no

[brisk meadow]

LOL mixed messages

[lone rapids]

Im seeing 85-100k

I know you are talking hourly

[peak pike]

so Deloitte wants a response by next Wednesday right, good TC, also is local so no relocation, I have 4 more interviews, 2 tomorrow, 2 Monday, should I honestly take time to interview with these companies or just take the Deloitte job? salary range for these other positions are around the same, if not a little bit more

I told the other companies I need an offer or not by Tuesday So they really gonna have to speed it up

but I also just want this job hunt stuff over and the stress off my shoulders

[pastel bane]

are there a lot of opportunities of DS in the US? there are not many in my country

[slow owl]

email or call your recruiter and ask for an extension

you can always accept Deloitte and rescind. If you got the job through your school you might get angry emails but otherwise companies won't care that much

[livid yew]

40hr is 84k

Btw

[lone rapids]

Oh

[livid yew]

Well it's pretty simple math

[late kestrel]

techie too huge brain for us

[lone rapids]

Trying to be like him

[late kestrel]

ong

[livid yew]

[tardy geode]

[tardy geode]

damn bro you on a roll

[graceful crown]

They sometimes take 30% from it too

So it ends up being less

[lone rapids]

Yea i need clear answers from them before i proceed

[graceful crown]

What consultancy is it?

[daring gazelle]

would 77k in a fly over state with low rent better than 100 k in big cities?

[brisk meadow]

In a purely financial sense? The math shouldn't be too bad there, drawing out a budget might help. Of course, that won't apply ALL the nuances, with things like other opportunity/social/city luxuries/etc. But if you're just asking financial in just this role then a budget will help.

Figure out what rent would be in both spots, etc.

[daring gazelle]

city luxuries?

[livid yew]

City luxuries?

Tf

@daring gazelle which flyover state

[white escarp]

worst case just do a gofundme 👀

[daring gazelle]

Missouri

[livid yew]

Hmm

[white escarp]

please fund a poor new grad engg

[livid yew]

I don't know much about Missouri

KC or St Louis?

Both are pretty chill

[daring gazelle]

KC

[livid yew]

But definitely much less social than like NYC

[daring gazelle]

Yeah but I think I would take my chance of meeting less methheads in smaller cities

[livid yew]

The only software place I know in KC is

Netsmart

[daring gazelle]

Live in the middle of nowhere

make more than median income

pretend to be catholic and attend church

could be bussin

[livid yew]

I go to church like once a month sometimes

Yeah I might move out of city

I don't really like it

[daring gazelle]

Like I made some calculation

Do the job for 4 years

[livid yew]

Oh I never thought about it that deeply

I don't really budget tbh

[daring gazelle]

could realisticly buy an entire house

[livid yew]

House is a 5-10 year goal for me

So it's very back of mine 😀

[daring gazelle]

How do you join the Armish as an Asian?

[livid yew]

Don't be Asian

Simple

[daring gazelle]

like is it whites only?

or is it the vibe

[livid yew]

I consider Asian to be white

[daring gazelle]

hahaha

idk dude

tbh I think a lot of people in the US actually think that ngl

[night marsh]

Friend: "I'm getting mixed signals"
The signals:

[livid yew]

Drop the email, don't be shy

[night marsh]

There is none

[livid yew]

It's automated?

[sleek owl]

what are the best job boards?

[night marsh]

It's from the SmartRecruiters website

[livid yew]

That sounds sussy

[night marsh]

There was a recruiter name but no email attached to them

[daring gazelle]

LinkedIn to find job and apply on the company website

simplify is good

but if its on Simplify it would have been applied by 100k new grads already

i fully believe that companies put up fake postings for tax reason somehow

[tardy geode]

lol i got this too

[night marsh]

lol yea

[peak pike]

extension isn't possible sadly, i have 3 offers who need responses on the same date. honestly deloitte sounds a bit more appealing than the other jobs i have interviews for

[snow salmon]

Got this shit too. So misleading lmao

[night marsh]

Indeed

[peak pike]

aaaaaa idk what to do

[livid yew]

Take the biggest TC of course

[peak pike]

well heres the problem, deloitte has offered me the most TC so far, pending these other interviews I have tomorrow and monday, they could offer somewhat similar TC, less, or more, but that only gives them two days to decide an offer or not until I have to let deloitte know by wednesday

[prime palm]

what's the location for deloitte

[peak pike]

california, local so no relocaiton required

[prime palm]

oh damn that's pretty nice

what's the compensation?

[peak pike]

95k base + 12.5k sign on

[prime palm]

lol i was going to ask about stocks then i googled and they're privately traded

[peak pike]

the other comapnies i ahve interviews with tomorrow and monday the ranges are around the same

[prime palm]

solid esp if you're local

no money wasted on rent

is it like, swe though

or like an analyist position / data sci

[peak pike]

solutions engineering analyst

[livid yew]

Ah gotcha

[prime palm]

i'd roll with deloitte

depending on who the other 2 are ig

[livid yew]

Deloitte is pretty chill

And you can always continue interviews after and work towards the next goal

[peak pike]

can i even rescind my offer after i sign the letter

[livid yew]

Idk

I've never had multiple offers at the same time lol 🤣

Every place I had offer, it was usually 1-2 week deadline

[peak pike]

deloitte would be a bit of fun since it requires some travel

[livid yew]

[peak pike]

so the other companies i ahve interviews with, their ranges on the app are 93k-130k

[livid yew]

130 base is poggers

[peak pike]

but it also depends on experience

im new grad

[livid yew]

True tbh

[peak pike]

you know what

fuck it we ball, deloitte it is

[livid yew]

[lone rapids]

Mannn these i talked with one consultancy

And they r ready to fake resume and do my interviews damn

[fallen fox]

yeah they do that

[late kestrel]

ofc you can

[lone rapids]

Damn man how is this legal

[late kestrel]

its not

[lone rapids]

Yea ik how come companies trust them

[fallen fox]

it's probably not but i just guess the companies using these consultancies do not care much

[lone rapids]

They are like we will add experience im like what u mean. I just scheduled call to talk and they think im gonna join them

[fallen fox]

they're very annoying lol, they keep calling you

i would just block the number and move on

[lone rapids]

You intl too?

[fallen fox]

yeah

i applied to one of these "consultancies" on indeed

mfers kept calling me

[lone rapids]

I applied two and all you need is say you will join them

I gave my passport page to one of the consultanties oh no pol

[fallen fox]

you're fine

[lone rapids]

Yea i hope so haha. They wanyed that in apply page

[fallen fox]

99% of what they say is BS

[lone rapids]

True

What is the terms and condition

Do you need to like stay with them for a certain time

[fallen fox]

their contracts generally say two years or so

[peak pike]

im also worried that being a solutions engineer analyst for deloitte is suicide for a software dev career

[fallen fox]

but a non-complete like that isn't legally enforceable

[lone rapids]

But is still a pain

[fallen fox]

mostly used to scare young-er college/grad students in their 20s

they aren't legally valid

[lone rapids]

Yes but i heard they still send the company you work for legal notice

[fallen fox]

how will they know though

you have to authorize a background check yourself

even then employment history doesn't show up on your background check

[lone rapids]

Interesting

[fallen fox]

the only way they can know is if you tell them

what company you're working for

[lone rapids]

I mean its not super bad considering if you dont have anything then they will at-least get you something

[fallen fox]

yeah true

[lone rapids]

But im not sure of implications

[fallen fox]

i would personally stay away

unless it gets to the point where i'm no longer able to afford rent

and homeless

[lone rapids]

Onlyfans

[neon perch]

You may 23?

[livid yew]

Consulting/contractor sucks tbh

It's a sham deal

[neon perch]

Bruh consultancies are a scam

[livid yew]

Always push for FTE

[lone rapids]

Yea

[alpine cargo]

which position for deloitte? did you apply on website or reach out hr throungh linkedin?

[compact sundial]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/498420244574896138/1080938889549717514/mad.gif

[mossy fiber]

deloitte's hr is literally wathing my linkedin profile every week but nerver reply to my email/message

[daring gazelle]

[tardy geode]

i have a query if lets say someone asks like "Tell me about your workex at so and so company " , should this be answered too using STAR method or STAR method is only for behavioral quests

[pine topaz]

@weary flax im glad u can relate with dmc, no need to flex ur attractivenezs

i always respond everything with STAR

[peak pike]

campus career fair -> applied online

well lads ive graduated from this channel and accepted and offer, to full time we go

[grizzled bronze]

STAR method applies to work experience as well, some companies expect you to use the STAR method for describing past experience

[nimble cosmos]

Anyone know when they mass hire new grads again? Is it in septemberish?

[cloud zinc]

Someone mentioned May

[nimble cosmos]

An answer would be preferred than an emote but I'll take that as a no

[cloud zinc]

they say that May or June is the next "spike" (in the context of this economy, not the general term)

[nimble cosmos]

Oh OK. That makes sense. Thanks!

[cloud zinc]

might not be enough postings, but its a new PB for this slump

[nimble cosmos]

Alright, thanks

[cloud zinc]

also, are you actually on 1100 apps?

[nimble cosmos]

More than that

[cloud zinc]

I'm on 1030 apps and have found nothing since August 2022

good luck on your endeavors bro

[nimble cosmos]

It'll keep increasing this year 🤧

[cloud zinc]

[nimble cosmos]

1k club 🙌

Best of luck to you too! We all need it lol

[grizzled bronze]

All we can do is speculate and hope for the best

[earnest perch]

fuckin hell i stopped counting at around 300

[cloud zinc]

you don't count to be happy, but as an indictment of your employability

and also as an indicator of how bad the market is rn

[livid yew]

I know something else long

Market is indeed rough

All I get is sussy C2H roles

[oblique wasp]

If anyone has interviewed at the company named Eulerity, then please dm

[thick cave]

do you guys keep the skills section on your resume after you have a few internships and some new grad experience

[glacial brook]

yes why not?

[thick cave]

skills are already highlighted in descripts + there's more technical and proven stuff I feel is more valuable to add to a resume

anyone can slap a bunch of technologies they "used" on a resume

showing it through a project or job is more valuable tho

so seems like the skills section is just taking up space

[daring gazelle]

The skills section is for the bots to read incase they miss it on your other description

[timber rock]

skills is only what, 1-2 lines? and it ensures that any tech you know but you haven't used at work gets picked up

there's not really a reason not to have it

[thick cave]

yea fair

[thick cave]

na I can see quite a few reasons to not have it, but the bot thing is pre important for new grads

so that alone is probs enuf to justify adding it

then I can get past the bots just to get fuked by snowflakes oa for the fourth time 😈

[neon perch]

It’s fine to have them. In fact if you list those that are also in your description along with just a few more you’d be considered to have a strong resume

At least that’s what I’ve always heard

[sleek owl]

why is msft posting jobs for entry level

are they legit

[shrewd ivy]

Do we have a discord for epic system peeps?

[daring gazelle]

clearly a psych op

[sleek owl]

lol i am asking because some companies post for tax or immigration reasons

[shut crescent]

holy shit

have u tried changing ur resume

[daring gazelle]

I lost track of my app number tbh but it’s probably over 1.3 k now

It’s just the market. Some nitpicking stuff in the resume wouldn’t help

[chilly burrow]

It can, you never know

Have you had your resume reviewed?

[nova vale]

Agreed - if anything it might be even more important atm

[cloud zinc]

It has gone through several changes since then. I'm getting more interviews since then, but thats about it

[chilly burrow]

Is it maybe a lack of interview skills then?

[signal trellis]

Well, I appreciate the vote of confidence in our platform 😅

But, I still encourage people to apply anyways

We will soon be allowing you to fine tune recommendations and jobs to sort by early applicant roles

So that way, job seekers who are dedicating more time to recruiting can see a higher return on their search

I think the future of recruiting will lead to less problems based on number of applicants and instead who each candidate is and how they fit in with the role. This is kind of our long-standing vision and what we’re building towards

[rain patio]

Hey guys anyone interviewing for Qualcomm? I had two rounds of interviews. I think the first one was a phone screening and the second one was a technical. The last interviewer said I should have one last round. Haven't heard back from them and it's been two weeks since the last interview.

[daring gazelle]

ngl your app saved me at least days in hours not filling out workday forms

Anyone applying for London roles who needs visa sponsorship?

[brisk meadow]

I have an interview for a "Simulation Specialist" role at a small company next week. Has anybody interviewed for a similar role/what to expect?

[lone copper]

What does "unfortunately the team has decided to go another direction" mean?
Does it mean they cancelled the role, they removed it from their website. I had a phone screen, then a take-home technical assignment which was passed onto the team and said it was good then I'd wait for technical interview on-site next and then I just get an email saying "unfortunately the team has decided to go another direction" . It was like my last choice thankfully, but still just confused

[grizzled bronze]

Could mean any of these, ultimately it's a rejection

[lone copper]

Yeah I know that much

I'm just wondering, most companies say they moved on with a different candidate or the role is gone. It was a small ish company so maybe they can't afford it no clue

Not really bothering me I just don't understand the logic of being vague unless they are wanting to hide the fact that they are doing bad financially or smtn

Fingers crossed the other companies I'm interviewing with go well

[late kestrel]

if the dude is legit, why waste your time typing shit on blind

go take a month at a private island your boss owns or smthin

[lone copper]

"google doesn't do layoffs" -some guy on blind

[tardy geode]

if this is true then we doomed

[grizzled bronze]

Not true, they're just shitposting

[tardy geode]

what do these Partner @ MSFT and all do?

also i have observed they have like crazy TC

is it like a tech position or management?

[prime palm]

mostly management prolly

[lunar hatch]

if that's confirmed why don't we all in for stock

[pulsar monolith]

Anyone wanna help this guy

[lunar hatch]

i'd say it's still possible but don't think anyone who knows the details will make the post

[late kestrel]

from november

[pulsar monolith]

Does anyone know what they ask in Bloomberg HR+SeniorEngineer round

[livid yew]

cockposting now

Smh people not working past 3 on Friday

pretty true tho

[late kestrel]

hr is just formalities, like are you ok with relocating to nyc, visa stuff

em can be anything from a resume deep dive or a sys design question

[pulsar monolith]

The email says this round is not technical tho

I already had a sys design interview btw

[late kestrel]

oh are you london

[pulsar monolith]

Yes

[late kestrel]

gotcha yeah that makes more sense

our process is a lil diff

[pulsar monolith]

Yeah i heard that too,

Im nervous as hell tho

[late kestrel]

you got this

[pure mauve]

got ghosted from that sadly

[west egret]

There are some behavioral questions for HR.

[ashen musk]

with same score?

[west egret]

I’d say prep for “why BB” and look up their values

[pure mauve]

ye

[pulsar monolith]

And the senior manager?

[west egret]

Pray 😂

[ashen musk]

damn when did u take it

[pure mauve]

i was also sure that I had the best possible solution. took it last week

[west egret]

EM round has most RNG I think

[ashen musk]

omg same

[west egret]

Some just have a casual chat about resume and others get asked sys design

[pulsar monolith]

I already did sys design tho. This is for London

[west egret]

Yeah I’m in US. I haven’t heard of ppl having sys design before EM round before.

Doesn’t hurt to be prepared for it though I guess?

[pulsar monolith]

Hm I mean the recruiter explicitly said it was not going to be a technical interview 😂
So i was hoping only behavioral

[late kestrel]

personally my em was 100% behavioral

15 min of asking about my projects and interests

15 min talking about bloomberg

[pulsar monolith]

Did you pass?

[late kestrel]

yeah

[west egret]

Mine asked me to talk about my previous intern project and sys design. Honestly I bombed the sys design but I got along with the EM. Was a little surprised to get an offer.

[pulsar monolith]

How long did the interview last? @west egret @late kestrel

[graceful crown]

is paypal hiring?

[west egret]

75 mins for me. After the sys design, I felt like trash but he said he was okay with staying longer so I could ask questions. I asked some basic questions just to get to know them a bit better.

[earnest perch]

being depressed

[wispy mason]

What companies has anyone gotten an oa atleast for new grad with just internship experience? I've been applying and honestly just getting rejected.

[idle pelican]

Vanguard/Epic Systems/Wolverine Trading sent me an OA. Beside those companies, it's been a rejection fest

[wispy mason]

did you have referrals for all these?

[idle pelican]

No, I just applied on their site

[wispy mason]

do you have prior experience?

[idle pelican]

Yeah I had a research internship and one with the government

[wispy mason]

okay but just internships right?

[idle pelican]

yeah

[wispy mason]

Thanks for the help!

[wispy mason]

Also wanted to add, for international students on F1
