anyone wanna have a roast session?

[native mango]

Which application are you using for showing H1B sponsor?

[rain patio]

U just straight up ask them for a referral or do you hop on a call?

[autumn jolt]

It's an extension, someone posted here a while ago

This one

[grizzled bronze]

Don't do it, leave the internship for someone who really needs it. Focus on the FT role and the money will follow.

[hidden scaffold]

damn just got rejected from skillstorm today(witch company)😮‍💨

[bold pier]

Does Goldman sponsor or am I wasting my time applying?

[autumn jolt]

from what I have heard, they do

[shadow pecan]

Just apply

[obsidian crater]

Haven't gotten the GS OA yet

I wonder when they're sending it

[oblique harbor]

How much time (on average) do you guys spend on cover letters per job application? Assuming you are applying online and not sending it to someone who works at the company directly

[pine topaz]

ChatGPT

[autumn iris]

How long is even ur code for OAs

[autumn jolt]

for which roles? Associate? or is the new grad out?

[wet jacinth]

[loud flare]

[static quarry]

[autumn iris]

[static quarry]

@rain patio give tips

my glorious king

[autumn iris]

Apply, get interview, pass interview, n ur employed

[hidden scaffold]

I wouldn't ever work on cover letters unless it is 100% necessary to complete the application

[static quarry]

instructions unclear, never got interview

[autumn iris]

U failed then

[shrewd ivy]

How do I rank up

I don’t think it’s skill issues, it’s match making

[autumn iris]

Go to MIT, have 6 internships, n be born lucky

[bold pier]

I need rich parents fr

[shrewd ivy]

I got shit teammates that’s why I’m losing

[autumn iris]

[shrewd ivy]

If my teammates were good I would get 6 internships

[autumn iris]

well ill see how the market is next month

[shrewd ivy]

Actual parent diff btw

[autumn iris]

1month of leetcode 12hrs a day

like im pretty confident in interviewing+ theory

But my coding is ass

[shrewd ivy]

If I had that much self control I wouldn’t been here in the first place

[autumn iris]

i feel like if u really try+ prepare earlier on, u should be getting some sort of callback

Unless im coping

[hidden scaffold]

@oblique harbor (Responding to a deleted comment)Yeah but how long have you been applying and do you tend to hear back from the companies you send cover letters to? If you aren't experiencing great success, those 2-3 minutes over a long period of time add up, and might be worth doing other things such as leetcode or applying to more jobs

[oblique harbor]

Haven't been applying much, but gonna start applying a lot now.

[autumn iris]

id do a phd

if i didnt care about money, id literally just go straight for a phd

and do something interesting

[hidden scaffold]

Anyone graduating in December 2023 looking for PM roles? Dm me

[grizzled bronze]

If you win it, send it all to me and I can double it for you

[cloud zinc]

managed to reschedule my interview from thursday to tomorrow afternoon

hopefully, they'll be kind and immediately tell me whether or not I passed immediately after

[tacit grove]

for which company?

[cloud zinc]

pcc

physician's computer company

[obsidian frost]

[rain patio]

i heard its good money for a vegas stripper

80k can buy you very good coke

oh shit i thought u were trolling

sry

[fallen fox]

vegas is lower col i think

[rain patio]

i mean home prices in vegas are like 500k

so i'd say it makes sense

[wheat forum]

Why is that stupid

A masters is 2 more years?

Lol I would not waste 60k

The job climate might be better when you get masters

That’s the only argument I can see

Yeah but

You can just work the 80k job 2 years and interview for mid level

Not with that attitude lol

I know multiple people that have done it

But either way, if you invest in learning and being good engineer, at some point it will pay off

Big companies interview people from smaller companies all the time

[split plaza]

joey any update on the 2024 grad process channel

[wheat forum]

You can’t see it?

I’ll do the code change tn if I have time

[rain patio]

Don't you have snowflake?

[marble ivy]

i earn 90k in nyc if that makes u feel better

[static quarry]

@pulsar mural stupid gatto

[solemn spire]

[rain patio]

me too

I've given up already

[bold pier]

You have a job :3

[rain patio]

a low paying IT job tho

dude I have an IT internship and I can’t force myself to do this stuff

I need to break out of IT pipeline

trajectory of your life gets derailed cause of this bs

I hope employers cut us some slack when the market improves

I'm hoping to leverage some of my IT experience to get a software job. Networking knowledge (like the computer networking stuff) is important, and not all schools teach that. Mine didn't lol

I hope I can start doing some programming at my job too. THat'll look good i bet

I bet I can beat out a few new grads and get a job heheheh

1 year of IT experience + using programming in my IT job will probably look ok idk

Compared to fresh new grads with no experience

I hope

[fallen fox]

same brother i just grind lc at my it job and apply to internal swe roles

manager got pissed and blocked my transfer

now i rope

[rain patio]

that was my plan but my org isn’t rly planning on hiring swe’s :/

[fallen fox]

my org is hiring new grads rn

of course my manager decides to do a transfer ban

ngl if i find a swe job imma shit on his desk

[rain patio]

the place I work at has this weird animosity towards ppl who want to transition to swe it’s hella weird

[fallen fox]

even if you have a cs degree?

[rain patio]

they like try to push you off of it

yea

[fallen fox]

wtf

[hidden scaffold]

what org?

[fallen fox]

rope

[vital meteor]

Did swe manager give you offer? I wonder if you could quit and reapply for that role

[narrow harbor]

i cant wait for the day you shit on his desk, fuck that manager

[fallen fox]

conduent

[hidden scaffold]

I feel like you are trolling about not having a job. I bet you are a big time swe at some faang company or something

[fallen fox]

not yet i was talking to a recruiter and afterwards talked to my manager

he has to approve my transfer anyway

[vital meteor]

[fallen fox]

🪢

[grizzled bronze]

Applied some weeks ago, still holding hope for Conduent

[fallen fox]

internal recruiter ghosting me rn

🪢

[grizzled bronze]

Then your manager's block worked

[fallen fox]

🔫

[grizzled bronze]

Sent cold emails to a couple recruiters today

[rain patio]

are ppl in this channel mostly May 2023 grad’s?

[grizzled bronze]

@median thistle give me one of your fall internships

stop hogging them all

[fallen fox]

dec 2022 grad 🔫

[rain patio]

I’m a dec 2023 grad 💀

[narrow harbor]

dec 2022 with nothing on their resume checking in 🙃

[oblique harbor]

In a September 2023 grad

[cloud zinc]

which is a better desired starting salary to bring up in an interview: 70k or 80k?

the range for an upcoming interview is from 60k to 88k, but I'm not sure if asking towards the upper limit would raise some red flags

[rain patio]

idk about other people, but i am

[static quarry]

same

[rain patio]

https://tenor.com/view/wheniwasolder-gif-20838458

everyday i consider this

But i'm holding out a bit longer in case the market improves

[solemn spire]

https://tenor.com/view/skeleton-spin-fan-rope-gif-25248314

[grizzled bronze]

Hang in there, it's gonna get better

more companies opening in the coming months

[rain patio]

HAHAH HANG IN THERE HAHA

lol

sorry bad pun

[narrow harbor]

some of the new grad 2024 postings like cat exclude 2023 grads

so i assume there will probably be more

[rain patio]

there are still entry level jobs tho. I bet there will be some startups out there willing to hire a somewhat recently graduated person idk

If bootcampers can get jobs, then so can we! When the economy gets better lol

[fallen fox]

bootcampers are on rope watch rn

[rain patio]

rope rope rope rope rope!

https://tenor.com/view/hanging-hang-noose-hangmans-gif-13478290

[grizzled bronze]

All the open roles right now are internal roles for bootcamp grads

[rain patio]

https://tenor.com/view/dead-hang-gallows-end-me-done-gif-13541335

Me too

[bold pier]

2 more months to deportation

Won't get rejected for visa sponsorship after that at least

[rain patio]

i cannot see it either

https://tenor.com/view/doom-slayer-hungry-dining-table-want-more-smooth-gif-24192231

give job plz

ikr i'm so pissed

and all these current college kids who have internships are telling us the new grad job market is easy

yeah right

i kinda hope the market stays shit out of spite so they get to experience what we have

I want them to experience the pain of having a job offer rescinded right before graduation

right when the market becomes impossible

[rain patio]

Dark grizzy

But fr crab bucket mentality

[tardy geode]

what exactly is imposter syndrome?

is it like , you just show that you know stuff but aren't actually confident that you know it

[vital meteor]

It's when you play too much amogus

[tardy geode]

[hidden scaffold]

Do Yall think amazon is still going to have easy new grad technical interviews

[rain patio]

Amazon final interview is just rng worst case reapply w/ alt acc

why

[frank thistle]

yo

[hidden scaffold]

Yeah don't they track each account with a valid number

[frank thistle]

u think zero internships = no job?

[rain patio]

Are u saying it’s not rng anymore?

Yeah Amazon student programs giving more bad news by the day for curr interns

new grads are prob fucked

[fallen otter]

well in this market…

[rain patio]

internal email said something along the lines of return interns not getting ft offers cause of headcount but it won’t be known for sure until the fall (AWS not Amazon tho)

if that’s the case I doubt hiring for ng

[fallen otter]

you think it’ll be better or worse in eight years

[rain patio]

Better

yea it’s ass

[frank thistle]

ye

just gotta

send 1k apps

one of em well be it

[chilly burrow]

No but it'll be difficult

[chilly burrow]

Make sure you get your resume reviewed in #1019675142248468601

[solemn spire]

I get no job nor bitches Im at the bottom yall

[rain patio]

same

[raw plank]

Same same and same

Sometimes I wonder if getting a job will even fix anything at this point

I’m too bitter

Maybe I’ll catch up to the world by the time I’m 33

[burnt oxide]

Is there an expected timeline to hear back from tiktok after application status changes to "Evaluation Passed"?

[raw plank]

we’ll get there

[cloud zinc]

I've been told that I will be conducting a brief 15-20 minute technical assessment for my interview. What could possibly be covered in such a brief timeframe?

like, is it just LC stuff or language/tool specific questions?

[vernal dome]

depends on the company

[grizzled bronze]

You will be conducting the interview?

[cloud zinc]

nah, the interview host decided to tell me yesterday

[fallen fox]

lc no way in 15-20 minutes

[cloud zinc]

would that include problems that would be covered in LC?

[fallen fox]

no way

[cloud zinc]

neet

[fallen fox]

15-20 minutes would be more like

"what is oop"

"describe how a hashmap works"

etc

[cloud zinc]

then it'll either be a SQL problem or a backend framework problem

[signal jewel]

how are you, tell me about you. uh-oh, we ran out of time. do you have any questions?

[fallen fox]

highly unlikely they'll ask you a problem in an interview that short

[cloud zinc]

they said it would be an assessment type problem, so I'm not sure

[fallen fox]

first 5 minutes would be spent just introducing yourselves

[fallen fox]

[fallen fox]

then expect the interview to go longer than 15 minutes

[cloud zinc]

It will be a 1 hour interview, so I'm thinking the verbal questions about tech would be covered outside the assessment portion

[cloud zinc]

apologies for the confusion. The interview will last one hour, but there will be a 20 minute session within that interview involving a technical assessment that I will complete

[fallen fox]

🤔

if it's 1 hour and then it could be lc or a lot of other things

[fallen otter]

damn an entire hour of sucking interviewer dick

metaphorically

ay

nah bro

don’t take me out of context

[cloud zinc]

I've done something similar for two hours straight

but it was for another company

[fallen otter]

what is the point of staying in the US without a visa bro 💀

you’ll get deported

[fallen fox]

🤔

imo not as many opportunities in canada

doesnt matter anyway im never making it as a swe

in the us as well, i'm stuck at IT

[ornate cliff]

How are my fellow jobless/homeless mates doing

[fallen fox]

[autumn jolt]

Do people get a callback from Citi after their 'we’re interested in learning more about you, so your application is being considered further' email?

what happens next?

[marble flower]

I know people who's final around was just LP questions and no leetcode

[ornate cliff]

that's only if they ace the OA

[marble flower]

I thought I did pretty good on the OA and got 2 LC mediums

😦

[ornate cliff]

Must get 100%

[marble flower]

I think my rng luck is just really bad cuz I always get tough ass interviews while I hear about mfs getting 2sum

[rain patio]

Wow! How did it go? I've got 3 till now. One in June and 2 in July. Hopefully something happens this time.

[rancid token]

they gave me brainteaser questions that i luckily understood

besides that tho it was going over my resume and technical questions

there was also a case study interview at the very end that wasnt too bad

[fallen otter]

[fresh mango]

Anybody else has their EAD progress at "Recieve case decision" for a while? Any idea how long that takes?

[pine topaz]

@pulsar mural @slate bobcat @rain patio

[sterile vapor]

hi, is it normal to speak with the hiring manager first for an apple interview (it’s not phone screening) or is this the screening interview?

[dense swan]

Dang i dont know, but did u just cold apply on the website or did u cold email the hm?

[dire carbon]

so anyone got the call from skillstorm?

[sterile vapor]

i didn’t email

[cloud zinc]

can you bullshit your way into answering server-side framework questions if you can extrapolate the basic idea behind them?

[sterile vapor]

yeah in june

[cloud zinc]

for instance, I don't know PHP that much, but from looking at the cheat sheet the syntax seems VERY similar to javascript

[sterile vapor]

nah 😭

nothing of the sort

it’s sde and it didn’t say junior in the description

[signal jewel]

math was easy-mid
coding. i could solve 1 and 7/15 the other.
matlab is optional

[cloud zinc]

second round interview in 5 minutes. Really hoping there isn't an additional step in the screening process

[signal jewel]

what company again ?

[narrow harbor]

i went to the doctor's today and i told her i graduate with computer science and was still trying to get a job

then she was like "isnt is pretty easy to get a job like it's in demand?"

💀

[autumn iris]

Cant be that hard

Just get a job

[rain patio]

everyone makes it seem like cs jobs are guaranteed 200k salary cause of TikTok 😭

[raw plank]

[outer radish]

Even harder for others to know :3

[native mango]

My friend got an offer in 3 days. 1 day oa and another day interview and 3rd day offer.

In this economy.

There are such people too

[bold pier]

Are they gonna ask for referral next?

[native mango]

And here I am struggling for a single job

[raw plank]

we're gonna make it

[native mango]

Today is my "ROPE" moment

-_-

[bold pier]

True, my friend got into walmart within a week. Now Walmart doesn't even look at my resume!

[native mango]

I have cried 6 times already

Yes

But she got her offer yesterday only

[rain patio]

Huuuuh which place if u don’t mind sharing

[native mango]

In this difficult time

I am really depressed

That's sheer luck

3 days for a offer

[rain patio]

interviewing is deadass rng

[native mango]

Here people after 7 interviews don't get a job

I know few people like that

Fucking luck

Nobody can empathize other than people facing this

[raw plank]

other losers

[native mango]

No one can understand this!!!!!!!!!!!

Nobody to empathize fully

[rain patio]

We all drink together once and cry after we get our offers

[native mango]

Everyone of our friends who graduated with us

They got job easily

No hurdle

Just plain luck

And now can't empathize with us

-_-

Empathy is dead

[pine topaz]

fake friends

[native mango]

So is my kindness and goodness

Be selfish

Just Be selfish like everyone else

No one understands around you

BEcause they are ejouing their life

Nobody to ask

Or just say few words

[signal jewel]

i sometime try cold mailing recruiters. no one give a shit about my mails. but my friend got two offers doing same. its just luck. you have to mail right person at right time.

[native mango]

That it's okay fine.

Yes

LUCK! JUST LUCK!

-_-

I imagine how people would have been if they were in my place

They might be worse than me

[rain patio]

dw if Amazon opens apps next month we can play a guessing game to see who gets 2sum for final round interview

[native mango]

They might have turned cold and brutal

I want my fucking medal!

[signal jewel]

bro no 😭 we all are gonna get into amazon

[native mango]

Don't ypu all want your medal to be strong in this time

[signal jewel]

and irony is. i told this friend what to mail recruiters long back 😭

[native mango]

Those who are sitting with a job can't empathize a little

Everyone immersed in their own good luck

[obsidian crater]

I am hoping for nepo hire

Cause my uncle knows a guy who knows a guy

[native mango]

They don;t have loans

[signal jewel]

amazon is not gonna hire this year

Do you know good quality rope

[obsidian crater]

I wish I was born in 1999 bro

I'd have graduated in the FAANG mass hiring wave

[native mango]

Hahaha

[swift falcon]

I saw some shit about how you're not supposed to include skills that everyone should have (git, agile, etc. ), which was basically half of the shit on my last resume

[obsidian crater]

Instead now the only thing I deserve is a rope

[native mango]

I am really really depressed right now

[swift falcon]

so why not just distill it to the ultra basics

[signal jewel]

i wish i was FAANG

[native mango]

Why why why

Is this happening

[bold pier]

Cscareers.dev Rope massacre

[obsidian crater]

I'd let amazon ruin me just for the name

[rain patio]

[native mango]

Lol

Yes

3 days depression and crying

Then 4th day LC

Then again rejetion or other news of hired student, again ROpe

Then again 2-3 days sobbing roping thoughts

LC and applications

That's life now

So much struggle just to get same lowkey job that people got in one shot

[native mango]

Why so difficult

[rain patio]

it’s resume related then, I had the same prob 2 years ago

[high owl]

It’s a lot of luck, could be you got unlucky.

[signal jewel]

its referral thing. apparently, if you apply with referral you will not get an oa. your applications goes to amazon jobs. its all buggy

[wet jacinth]

I did 900+ LC but didn't get 1 tech interview in the past 4 months

[rain patio]

oh I didn’t have a referral but I ended up getting ghosted by them and then fixed it and got OA

[native mango]

Everyone with job is a best friend now

[native mango]

[native mango]

They are on same pages enjoung and hanging around

[grizzled bronze]

hitting the gym, that'll help me with future interviews

[native mango]

Hahaha

No money for gym

[high owl]

The strongest applicant 😎

[swift falcon]

it's depressing seeing a person you graduated with 2 years ago be at a company you were planning on applying to

[native mango]

No yes

[swift falcon]

and seeing them advertise legit projects etc

[native mango]

Yes

Yes

:(((

[swift falcon]

gave me a wake up call tbh

[native mango]

Everyone enjoying hanging out

Why should I hang out with them

To listen to their office gossip

Eat with them outside whrn I don't have money

Spend time with them after their job time

Why

I don't want to

They have 401 k H1B issues

And I don't have a job

My problems are bigger and different from them

🤒🤒🤒🤒

[high owl]

That was me a few years ago hearing my friends all get great internships and talking about it all the time. Best not to compare yourselves since well, it doesn’t do you any good.

I agree. A lot more stable fs.

Dam

[native mango]

But how to stop

They are just hanging

Around

And posting

Photos

Nohody to empathize

Or even Ask

How are you feeling

[raw plank]

you need stay busy

[native mango]

-.-

[raw plank]

try getting a job

[wet jacinth]

hehe

[solemn kite]

don't compare yourself - everyone earns things at different points in their life

[high owl]

We will all make it

[solemn kite]

it's not a competition

[vital meteor]

hes just like us fr

[high owl]

Exactly. We are all on our own journey/paths.

Just keep going homie

[solemn kite]

yeah, and if you push people away just because they have things you don't, you

you'll lose valuable friends *

and be more depressed

[native mango]

Yesss

But what

Valuable friends are not empathizing

What do i do

Ehh

How not to compare

[high owl]

Head down and grind. That’s what I did p much

[native mango]

They are added on snapchat insta

[raw plank]

tbh what would you do if this was the other way around? U got offers straight out of school while one of your friends didnt

[solemn kite]

try to make new friends. try to tell them that you need help venting/talking it out

[high owl]

Use this as motivation

Or find new friends yeah

[raw plank]

what would you do that you expect them to do to help you out

I can't rly think of anything besides a few referrals

[rain patio]

pass them the sauce

[raw plank]

besides giving straight cash that would be nice

[solemn kite]

talking to people irl alleviates anxiety at least

[native mango]

I would try to help them or empathize with them atleast

I used to do even when I was in struggle myslef

To their pity things

Wowo

[fallen fox]

it's rope fuel

[native mango]

I used to listen

[fallen fox]

jobless for 8 months now

my mental health is a disaster

[native mango]

But now they are not there to ask or listen

Ehehehhehe

So much valuable

I hate all now

[fallen fox]

just cut your friends off until you get a job

[solemn kite]

figure out which of your friends will listen to you. have you tried approaching them like "hey i just need to vent" or somehting?

[fallen fox]

thats what im doing rn

[native mango]

Yes

[native mango]

I started

[fallen fox]

watching your friends make money while your jobless is suicide fuel

[native mango]

No one is that ready toh listen

They are like yeah i can understand and shit but thei dont

[high owl]

This was legit me. My god what a sad feeling

[native mango]

[native mango]

Going to gym and all that and joking with me that I don't go to gym

Wow

[solemn kite]

atleast try to not compare

[native mango]

They should fucking have some empathy

[solemn kite]

okay yeah that's rude

[native mango]

They should fucking have some kindness an all

And understand

I am motivated more then them

some harsh reality

And joking with me

Enough of everything!

I am just frustrated with all@of the@

frustration

I am reallly really frustrated

It's not just job it's everything related to that

Without job you are not able to focus on anything else

It all come down to money

At the end

You don't want to go outside and enjoy.

Because it all comes to that ultimate sadness

Can't watch movie without guilt

Can't go to india without money

International shit

😇

Much wow

Can't meet family because no job

No money

Struggle alone!

[pine topaz]

watching movie without guilt reminds me of

inflation is down guys, we are all going to make it

hopefully august openings are nicer

[raw plank]

my daily activities include hiding from friends and family

[stray lark]

Is the job market better now?

[obsidian crater]

no

[raw plank]

no

[stray lark]

It’s worse?

[obsidian crater]

about the same

no entry level is hiring

[stray lark]

There’s no entry level jobs?

[obsidian crater]

for 2024

some places have opened up their apps

[stray lark]

Where are there new grab jobsC

?*

[wet jacinth]

yes, where are they?

[stray lark]

Also how long does it take the average person to pay off student loans

[lost ether]

For stem, usually not that long

[swift falcon]

august 1st its gonna be like nuclear bomb

all the positions will be opened

we’ll all get hired

[pine topaz]

it will be our oppenheimer

[split igloo]

idk but it sounds like market gets nuked and nothing left

hope that inflation goes down

and they start hire again

[raw plank]

just did revature assessment pray for me bois

[vagrant rain]

how is revature, honestly? havent considered them yet tbh

[high owl]

WITCH company :(((

If you have no other choice it’s not the worst option

[raw plank]

they are low pay and predatory contract, but my only concern is if i'll even get a contract they arent hiring as much

even revature was better 2 years ago

[vagrant rain]

i guess what's the incentive for u accepting that then?

[raw plank]

job

even better, tech job

[vagrant rain]

ah, well how long have u been searching for in general?

[raw plank]

I graduated december 2022

they contract you out to bigger witch companies

and you do stuff depending on whats needed

java, .net, frontend or whatever

[cloud zinc]

fucked up part of the interview because I was sweating like a soda machine throughout the meeting

Killed it during the assessment portion. Apparently it was only one SQL scenario and three questions on making tables and selecting data

it was incredibly weird because they didn't use a live coding session. Instead, they presented a PDF and wanted me to verbally explain my answer

[swift falcon]

what was the fuck up?

[rain patio]

What company wtf

[cloud zinc]

Nothing too drastic, I stumbled to answer some questions because I was too distracted in how hard I was sweating.

[cloud zinc]

physicians computer company. Some small web company local to my area

it was literally: "here is the schema for a restaurant system. how would you create the table? Select the total cost of x if y. How would you select z if a field shows up at least once"

Also, I came up with a neat lie regarding family matters and masters application in order to excuse my gap in employment. It sounded like the lie worked because they didn't seem too bothered by the gap.

[grizzled bronze]

New Confluent job was posted, but it's restricted to remote Texas location only
https://careers.confluent.io/jobs/12496749-developer-productivity-software-engineer-recent-grad-remote-texas

This is why Conduent is still superior to Confluent, their remote jobs are remote anywhere in US

[grizzled bronze]

Maybe, but they've also posted past remote roles restricted to Texas, North Carolina, and some other states with the recruiter encouraging people in those locations to apply

[unreal rampart]

What does WITCH mean

And what’s wrong with them

I see thank you

[narrow harbor]

does WITCH hire all year round?

[rain patio]

Does Palantir hire F-1 students? I got an email from one of their recruiters asking to apply for new grad positions

[fallen fox]

https://www.myvisajobs.com/Visa-Sponsor/Palantir-Technologies/409654.htm

[rain patio]

How accurate are these? Are they from Government statistics? I am sure palantir sponsors but this doesn't tell me whether they do for new grads

[raw plank]

there are fresh posts on linkedin year round, but I heard that they are slowing on getting back to people

[native mango]

Everything sucks

I don't feel good

[static quarry]

[rain swan]

[rain patio]

Anyone got their EAD this week?

[grizzled bronze]

@marble ivy is your Citi job for the ICG Tech Analyst new grad role or did you apply to a non new grad role?

The new grad role I saw had a range of $90K-$115K, I wonder if it's negotiable

[raw plank]

revature said 11 week unpaid pre training before a chance to be accepted into 11 week paid training

[marble ivy]

No it’s just some random swe role, not analyst

[grizzled bronze]

Then maybe new grad actually pays higher

[raw plank]

Are you sure? They still sent me the same email with paid training info

Don’t make me believe I was 1 month too late for revature

Probably what else do I do it’s been 7 months

[marble ivy]

Yes it does

[marble ivy]

Ya

[raw plank]

Rope

[raw plank]

Did u take their assessment ? Just multiple choice

Maybe I didn’t do so well on it

[marble ivy]

That’s like <1% roles, most r new grad or 3+ yoe

[manic wedge]

This is exactly my dilemma. Stuck in limbo between new grad roles and roles asking for 2 YOE+

got laid off 1 month into NG role fml 😭 haven't found anything since

[grizzled bronze]

[manic wedge]
