Cause sure you probably won't make $300K as senior but you can live

#

I'm not sure you can buy a home in the bay on 300K unless your spouse makes the same

#

The average income here is $30K or something

Buying a house is about saving so that’s gonna depend on the lifestyle you’re willing to live while you save up for a house

holy fuck this market is so trash

2024 OA: Hack into the database and delete all applications except yours.

If you don’t say ā€œI’m inā€ it’s auto-fail.

#

I can understand ppl with exp wanting remote only

#

But for NG, it seems like having interaction is kind of important

brave forge
#

Ya ik he was really high level . I think if you reach that seniority you have the power to demand remote work lol

brave forge
#

im open to moving to a city if i can land a new-grad job like that and live downtown in a high-rise nearby their offices

timber rock
#

full remote seems depressing

west egret
#

Yeah if it’s raining/snowing I might want to do WFH but having ppl in office when you have no idea what you’re doing is useful

brave forge
timber rock
#

yeah i did nearly 2 years of mine online

#

worst experience ever

brave forge
#

ya at my uni it's literally just submit the assignment and read the supporting sources and write weekly discussion posts discussing the topic with your class mates. No interaction with anyone or the professor

west egret
#

Online classes can be depressing. Also I feel like professors take little care to actually update online courses…despite how low maintenance they are already.

brave forge
#

I might go back for a masters to get a better CS experience in the future, at least i've told myself to copedealer copium

west egret
#

I had a class where I was given lectures that were possibly 10 years old

brave forge
#

ya they don't update the online course curriculum

west egret
#

The professor would literally point to something on a slide and you can’t even make out what it says because it’s sub 480p

brave forge
#

the funny part at my uni, is every course has been completely solved and posted on github and even some people have made a week-by-week youtube guide for the harder ones so it's pretty easy to get by if u have any CS skill and willing to work

Did anyone get this job opportunity from Marvin group. it’s kinda looking shady to me

SALUTE KKona šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø šŸ¦…

obsidian crater
#

I like full remote because you save so much money and time

#

There isn't that much of an advantage to in person imo if you have the right tools

swift falcon
#

I like fulll time remote because I can literally clock in while I’m still waking up

obsidian crater
#

Also transportation

#

Owning a car is an insane expense

timber rock
#

i just use public transport

#

dont like remote cause its lonely

obsidian crater
#

America has no public transport bro

timber rock
#

sounds like a you problem

rough ruin
#

there is public transport if near a big city usually

obsidian crater
#

It's shit usually

#

timber rock
#

tardy geode
#

#

smh i am sick of this bs

agile niche
#

Me too

#

I checked all the boxes and i bet u did too

#

What else do they want please

tardy geode
#

it was for a frontend engineer and infact they reached out not even me

#

so i thought these peeps are genuinely interested and the first call went really well

#

i was even told , your past experience aligns with what we do and our upcoming projects

#

smh fuck em

agile niche
#

The way they ghost ppl is beyond me

#

Like it takes a skill to do that

tardy geode
#

as a candidate it fucking hurts

agile niche
#

Lmfao it really does

#

Those seen linkedin messages break my heart

tardy geode
#

she even opened the follow up email , i have an email tracker

agile niche
#

Like at least just say fuck off i feel like that would hurt less

tardy geode
#

exactly lol

agile niche
#

Superhuman?

tardy geode
#

its an email tracker , notifies you if the email was opened/read

agile niche
#

Oh cool

tardy geode
#

yeah its useful and shit is legit

agile niche
#

Im on a thin fucking thread im a finalist at one company

#

If it goes bust then i’ll just sit there

#

Literally

brave forge
#

some tech offices are pretty good with the free food and you can have face-to-face discussions with your team members about what your working on

vagrant star
timber rock
#

the social interaction is the big pro to in office

#

id probably go 3 days in office if i got the choice

agile niche
#

I would do fully in-person

#

Remote sucks because you cant mentally seperate your house into both a living and working space

#

or maybe thats just me

brave forge
#

i know i need a car but im 20 and have no savings rn to afford to buy one for even like 5k and then get insurance and find a place to park it. im literally like couch surfing for rn till i can figure out some full time employment that isn't just an internships

agile niche
#

but like the bed is right there

timber rock
#

my office this summer is 25 min walk dogesmile

rain patio
agile niche
#

yup its the adhd

rain patio
#

too much temptation at home I prefer libraries/offices

timber rock
#

its the same reason i go to uni to study, cant get shit done at home

agile niche
#

exactly that too

obsidian crater
#

exactly

#

I did a 2 hour commute for my internship

rain patio
#

losing 2 hrs/day is significant yeah

brave forge
#

would be nice if my parents gave me a car but they moved outta the country for rn so that just leaves me without anything to leach off them

obsidian crater
#

15 minute walk to bus stop + 30 minute bus ride + 15 minute walk to work twice a day in the sun

#

I'd get all sweaty walking to work in the heat

#

hated it lol

timber rock
#

i mean when people are saying they prefer in office i dont think we're thinking about a 3 hour commute šŸ˜‚

obsidian crater
#

I mean that's just the reality for a lot of people

rain patio
#

thats 2 more hours u could be playing video games, 2 hrs a day of piano and you're already playing Beethoven in a year

#

or conversational japanese

Can't live close to work in the bay area easily

wtf is a super reaction

brave forge
rain patio
#

^ def works in the bay

brave forge
#

i do like that point , i'd like to get immersed in the whole tech thing for a few years and move up positions quick

#

idk many ways to get into bay area jobs though for new-grad. I have a Project manager friend that works at Paypal i met from uni that's down to recommend me for paypal but i actually have to pass all their rounds

tardy geode
#

not only bay , but if you end up in CA

#

its all tech out there

brave forge
#

i think that'd be the dreamm 21 and grinding tech making $$ and have no other responsabilities

obsidian crater
tardy geode
#

Southern CA seems like good to save up , like high salary and LCOL compared to bay area

brave forge
#

not if u meet the right ppl and get into a start up concernpolitoad

obsidian crater
#

It's not

#

It's maybe 10% cheaper

tardy geode
#

so you mean scheduling interviews and ghosting candidates after finals

brave forge
#

2024 is going to be the first election cycle i vote in thanospog

obsidian crater
#

SoCal isn't affordable

tardy geode
tardy geode

brave forge
#

im tryin that im doing like 3-5 questions per day. Usually trying to move 3 questions forward on Neetcode 150 list and doing the leetcode daily and watching all the neetcode vids + reading discussions after i solve to learn how other ppl do it and more in depth

pulsar mural
#

el sniffa

obsidian crater
#

40 problems in 10 hours is one problem every 15

#

How do you solve that fast

obsidian crater
#

Are you a competitive programmer

#

Cause that's fast af

brave forge
tardy geode
#

yeah then i realised this

brave forge
#

probably like 3 hours for a hard

tardy geode
#

@pulsar mural

brave forge
#

ya exactly it takes hours of focus

#

and researching vids and seeing discussion solutions and debugging the problem

rain patio
#

neetcode explains things pretty well for me

#

Just memorize every solution

brave forge
#

and trying to understand the new algorithm structure if it's a new topic u haven't covered which is me most of the time

tardy geode
rain patio
#

when I do problems in C++ I get some annoying bug and that kills 20 minutes more than normal

"every year i have a birthday cake with the number of candles being my age that year. i have had 300 candles in total. what age am i?" - ok you have 30 seconds to answer

Those two topics fuck me over always

thanks for the interview, bye

timber rock
rain patio
#

not even recursive actually.. not necessary

#

But like I cou;dn't do it with mental math

#

I’ve found they’re the easiest to get interviews

#

Yea especially banks

#

Charles Schwab, BofA, E*Trade,

#

To name a few

#

Yea that’s not enough

#

Through their website correct?

#

Oh c1 is pretty biased

#

Oh you live in the bay

#

Yea not sure I can help you there, I live in Texas

#

Yea mb, although you could try applying for positions here

#

Damn

#

Dp usually sucks but honestly it depends on whether or not you can figure out the recurrence in time

brave forge
#

I did like 2 dp questions so far for the leetcode daily and it was like a different variation of greedy

#

Still haven’t gotten to the dp section

teal jackal
#

I guess the thought process needed to figure out the recurrence is similar to greedy

#

Find some trait about the problem that you want to prioritize

obsidian crater
#

DP isn't greedy

#

But they are easily confused

Yeah that's what I appreciated about Wise

#

They rejected me with an email but I got to talk to a recruiter face to face about the feedback she received from my interviewers

(ik why they don't but) I wish more companies did that. Would be a great way to improve applicants' performance but businesses don't see it the same way

obsidian crater

#

going to be a ride this august

#

when the first 2024 new grad jobs come out. Probably like 5k applicants in the first 24 hours for any decent company

how whats up guys, a recruiter from Applied intuition reached out to me, asking me if I wanna kick off the process (passed onsite a few months ago, but they ran out of HC). I have signed an offer already, but I still wanna continue the process. What's the best way to respond?

shut fulcrum
#

msft new grad

#

L60

#

it would make me look really bad if I say I am still recruiting after all this time lol

#

can I frame it like I am deciding between offers?

#

and be like "I'd love to continue the process, I have received a few offers..."

#

it would just be a leadership call if the process continues (no phone / final)

#

yeah, but unsure how to go about email LOL

#

Ok, is it better to mention the companies for the offers?

#

fake offers, fake companies

#

alright, I'll just say I am currently deciding between a few new grad offers, but I'd be open to learn more about the opportunity

swe without devops/infra knowledge = code monkey

teal jackal
#

Amazon has devs manage their own ops but it's overwhelmingly railroaded by internal pipelines, version control, and AWS

#

Which beats just handing the devops work to someone else

#

But to be fair Amazon's internal deployment environment is pretty well abstracted, so there's no point in having everyone reinvent the wheel

hasty jewel
#

i guess it depends on company size too. amazon is a large corporation so they prob have engineers dedicated to build systems, pipelines, etc
but if you're at a mid-small company you touch everything from code to deployment to monitoring to the actual containers

teal jackal
tacit grove
teal jackal
#

Pretty much

#

I highly doubt you'll work on devops to a meaningful scale with personal projects

hasty jewel
# tacit grove yeah I totally agree...but how do you gain further knowledge about these stuff -...

yeah thru experience. maybe playing around with stuff yourself can help. most cloud providers have free tiers. just clone someone's code and try to run it in a container or something. then try an orchestration platform. then try configuring load balancers. then try scaling. then intentionally break something and see the errors that surface when u deploy it. for me i was lucky to have a bit of exposure during my internships so that helped but i still don't know enough bc i'm a noob grad

Just one question about Dev Ops

#

so to become one, I just got to get the aws cloud developer certifications? they say if you get it you should qualify for dev ops stuff

#

damn i got to grind these. I always knew they were good but that's amazing if I can jump start my CS career like that

#

Which AWS certs are the most important though? there's quite a few

#

What about Cloud Solutions? that is supposed to be the easiest one and gives you a general overview of it so i was starting with that, maybe speed run and get it done in 1-2 weeks just to get something on my resume and then move to the next ones

i've heard about linux fundementals, what does that mean? like navigating it through the terminal?
