[mystic depot]

oh ye that does make sense, thats an ez win then

[floral junco]

Is Amazon really RNG?

[coarse marten]

It's always rng

🎲

[floral junco]

I want to study for my interview but like what problems should I study for best possible outcome

Ah fuck

[mystic depot]

could someone tell me what rng means

[floral junco]

LOL

[coarse marten]

Google

It

Bro

[mystic depot]

i see this all the time and im like hella confused

[mystic depot]

https://tenor.com/view/crycat-crying-cat-crying-cat-thumbs-up-thumbs-up-ok-gif-22851318

[ember bison]

yup

[ember bison]

my first time

[mystic depot]

i googled it

[ember bison]

first time i didnt try at all. i was literally hungover as shit and i got the offer

2nd time i sweated and got the optimal sol rly quickly but reject

idk man

[mystic depot]

bruh

[ember bison]

gonna take akuna oa after not leetcoding for months

wish me luck

[mystic depot]

gl

[compact yew]

if you ever think you are not gonna get graph, you will get graph

trust

Nice!

No never say no way

You will get fucked

Ye bro

graphs so dumb

so are linked list

[mystic depot]

graphs are not too bad its the questions which dont make it obvious that its a graph problem which are confusing

[compact yew]

second this

once you know it's graph, you can sorta just bs your way through it

[sinful locust]

Anyone did Akuna's web/C# phone screen on codepair? How about its difficulty?

[soft basin]

fuck graphs

graphs are such long problems

me when i get number of islands as my interview problem

i havent solved much graph problems yet

thats prolly why for me

when they give a bellman ford problem 😩

[sinful locust]

i hate it all

i only like heapq questions

small little programs

that u can write under a min

[soft basin]

i only like arrays and hashing

[sinful locust]

honestly

me too

fuck the rest of it

[soft basin]

a little of sliding window

except for the minimum window substring problem

fuck that

[stark basin]

oh right I need to remember to refresh how to do that one

[sinful locust]

ya

[soft basin]

2 separate hashmaps

[stark basin]

sliding window max is easy once you know how to do it

[soft basin]

which one is that one?

[stark basin]

https://leetcode.com/problems/sliding-window-maximum/

[soft basin]

this one doesnt seem that bad imo

[stark basin]

that's what I thought initially too

[soft basin]

yeah i just segfaulted

imma try solving that when im sober

[stark basin]

5 months left until I can drink

[soft basin]

lets just say that cs made me become a stoner

[hallow scroll]

2 years till I can drink

[soft basin]

which is why i want amazon cuz they dont drug test i think

[stark basin]

[soft basin]

i cant wait for the cali weed 🤩

[ember bison]

the email said i only had to do 2/3. i got all test cases on 2/3 but the last one was some DP shit i didnt wanna do

for phone

[soft basin]

i wish other oas would give us like choose 2 out of 3 problems

[ember bison]

fax

[astral dew]

Only if I was 21 when I went out there 😭🤦🏽‍♂️

[soft basin]

ive got 5 more months

actually closer to 3 lol

[astral dew]

Literally 3 too

Oct 26 baby!

[honest locust]

i spent so long on my 2heaps problem today for cit phone

i don't do heaps quickly

[soft basin]

u mean median of data stream?

[honest locust]

yea

[soft basin]

i just worked on that one lol

[sinful locust]

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[south aspen]

damn they asked you a lc hard huh

[honest locust]

yea it's not as bad as rainwater tho

[south aspen]

rainwater can go die

u think u moved on?

[honest locust]

50/50

[south aspen]

aight well, best of luck

hopefully you do

[honest locust]

thanks

[ember bison]

just solved the question i couldnt do on the OA in leetcode 😎

[sinful locust]

yo

what’s ur name

[crisp berry]

do you guys do the "open to work" thing on linkedin

[ember bison]

im not gay but js is js

[crisp berry]

should i enable it?

[soft basin]

joe

[crisp berry]

for recruiter only mode

[sinful locust]

stop

[queen plover]

that actually works

Recruiters send me messages

[mighty path]

whats supposed to be the time complexity on this

i did a simple O(n) solution and im getting tle

[stark basin]

O(n)

[mighty path]

hmm maybe mine isnt o(n) idk

[stark basin]

maybe it isn't so simply O(n)

are you doing sum()

[mighty path]

yeah it may be o(n^2)

im using max within for loop

so may be o(n^2)

[stark basin]

max is O(n)

[mighty path]

ye

[soft basin]

max is O(1) operation

if java

[mighty path]

nah its python

[stark basin]

[soft basin]

ah

[stark basin]

what kind of magic makes O(1) max in Java

[soft basin]

max can only compare 2 values

[mighty path]

government doesnt want you to know this but if you just say your method is o(x) then its o(x)

[stark basin]

[mighty path]

lc hints say use deque

trying to think about how that may work

[soft basin]

one of them said priorityqueue

[stark basin]

deque yes
but monotonic stack is the biggie

[mighty path]

wait

pq may make the big sense

[stark basin]

PQ might work

[soft basin]

youd need to make it the maxheap

[ionic carbon]

Lol every problem is easy if you know how to do it

[stark basin]

if I'm not forced to do DP I won't do DP

[mighty path]

🧠

[stark basin]

true except for median of two sorted lists for me

fuck that problem

[mighty path]

python doesnt have maxheap implementation feels bad

[stark basin]

it has minheap

just make the value negative

[soft basin]

yep that one is used in the median of data stream

[mighty path]

tru

[stark basin]

now if only they can give heapq the "key" argument for custom comparisons too it would be perfect

[mighty path]

im trying to learn python data structure as im doing these bc i seldom use python

[soft basin]

brute force is O(kN)

for maximum window

[stark basin]

yep

[ionic carbon]

You can always write a new class … or if it is a number just add a negative sign. But yeah it is just dumb

[soft basin]

python doesnt contain avl or rb?

[stark basin]

nope

not natively

[soft basin]

they never thought abt adding it in?

werid

[proud whale]

does any1 know what the 15 min workplace simulation as part of Amazon OA is

[hallow scroll]

one of those surveys thats like
I am someone who
works well in a team excels at working alone

like those selection things

if its big n yes

worth

yeah I mean its tesla

[stark basin]

people know tesla

[hallow scroll]

if anything just ask for some embedded exposure during your internship

[stark basin]

i thought I liked embedded, then I took an embedded project course and I didn't like embedded anymore

[hallow scroll]

most managers are chill with that

nah, that idea is more important for full time people I feel like

as an intern its not bad

especially since its tesla

plus most of the times you can spin the wording a little, make it sound like a swe role then just put down swe intern instead

[stark basin]

debouncing

[hallow scroll]

ik a couple people who have done that

[stark basin]

[hallow scroll]

yeah you should be good then

[mighty path]

wait urs is only 15 min?

when i took it that shit took like 90 mins

why is market getting so bad rn :c

[hallow scroll]

they changed it this year

[proud whale]

so it's not something i need to study for?

[hallow scroll]

the simulation isn't part of the oa no more

[mighty path]

all i hear is "x company hiring freeze"

"x company not offering return offers"

"coinbase drops staff" kek

[hallow scroll]

idk if you remember but its just that short survey

coinbase

[mighty path]

my friend said he hopes coinbase is indefinitely blacklisted at my school

[proud whale]

but then it's like followed by a mandatory survey required for completion (5 mins).

[hallow scroll]

nothing crazy, reviewing their culture and leadership principles should give you a good idea of what they want from you

[proud whale]

which is separate from the other one!

so i'm confused

[hallow scroll]

thats probably like rating your oa expierence

[mighty path]

basically answer like ur working 996

[proud whale]

996?

[mighty path]

9am-9pm 6 days a week

[proud whale]

996

[hallow scroll]

the original simulation they had wasn't something thats doable in 15 mins

[proud whale]

oh lolll

i see

[hallow scroll]

nah I have a summer and fall one

[mighty path]

the survey part of that was like trying to gauge personality

[hallow scroll]

yeah

thats what that is

[proud whale]

u weren't talking to me but this is lowkey the plan for me in fall

[mighty path]

i wanna get a spring 23 intersnhip

but markets looking wacko

also my leetcode skills are in the gutter rn

[hallow scroll]

nvidia isn't doing winter/spring internships p sure

[proud whale]

how come nvidia?

i've realized i'm down bad for Snap

[hallow scroll]

they started posting them but apparently they cancelled them

im down bad for amazon winter

[proud whale]

i never had a goal company till now but now i do lol feels good tbh

[quaint bolt]

L

[proud whale]

great reason

[quaint bolt]

Skill issue

[proud whale]

why L

[quaint bolt]

Imagine dreaming about work

[proud whale]

bruh wut?

lmfao

[quaint bolt]

Snap fell off

[hallow scroll]

not everyone can just wake up and have offers like you wagon

[quaint bolt]

Everyone uses IG now

[proud whale]

why'd they fall off, cuz of stock plummet?

[quaint bolt]

No bc everyone uses IG

[proud whale]

ah like that

hmm for stories yeah u right

[mighty path]

snap ded

[proud whale]

but i think they're going strong for messaging

[mighty path]

stock went to the moon but inverse

[quaint bolt]

You too can become wagon man with one easy step

[mighty path]

dont touch grass

[proud whale]

• for the reasons I want Snap they still fit the bill

[quaint bolt]

Interviewers hate this!!

[proud whale]

i can always lateral after

[mighty path]

join

[proud whale]

but for high ng comp + working in LA they're my best bet

[mighty path]

working on west coast :weirdchamp:

[proud whale]

Tinder has the working in LA perk but not the comp to back it

[quaint bolt]

[mighty path]

imma get into g struggling to solve lc easy

[sinful locust]

but i dont expect myself to land it

[stark basin]

[quaint bolt]

Damn I’m old

[stark basin]

kids these days

[quaint bolt]

[stark basin]

I stg

[fickle drift]

did u get oa?

[stark basin]

do NOT do tutoring

[stark basin]

i FUCKED the oa

[sinful locust]

ya not a good idea

i tried it

[fickle drift]

ah tuff

[sinful locust]

people who need tutoring are............

[fickle drift]

how long after oa did u hear back

[sinful locust]

odd....

[stark basin]

only OA I fucked yet

[quaint bolt]

I can barely solve lc I was fine

[mighty path]

that was me with zon

[hallow scroll]

if you can barely do lc how have you passed like all your big tech interviews

[stark basin]

well
it depends on where you're tutoring
if it's in college, for a coding class that isn't the very first, introductory one, then it's not that bad

[fickle drift]

won the iq lottery :gigachad:

[quaint bolt]

I got fizzbuzz every interview

[stark basin]

but if it's introductory, or, god forbid, a coding camp for kids

[sinful locust]

lies

[mighty path]

damn

[stark basin]

it's hell on earth

[hallow scroll]

[mighty path]

use dp to solve fizzbuzz

[sinful locust]

write fizzbuzz recursivly

[hallow scroll]

they saw your loo so they gave you easy problem

[stark basin]

I got Word Search 2 my very first interview

[quaint bolt]

Truu

Loo buff

[quaint bolt]

My very first technical I got letter combinations of a phone number

[hallow scroll]

cisco gave me word search 2 two times in a row for their shitty oa

[stark basin]

man

[sinful locust]

i got a dp question that i still cant solve to this day

[royal sail]

I got it this time too, just did brute force lmao

[hallow scroll]

I had no clue how to do it, I coded my solution and it didn't work so I just gave up

not worth it

[mighty path]

my final with amazon they didnt even test code

[stark basin]

I stg I spent all my luck getting two less than LC easys on the Amazon OA
bout to get Burst Balloons for my final

my anecdotes for the LQ better be good

[quaint bolt]

Jokes aside, you get a knack for lc and goog has a bit of rng sprinkled in too

[royal sail]

I think for Cisco they only cared about the rows and columns so it wasn’t too bad

[mighty path]

what if i dont get a knack

[quaint bolt]

In general it’s somewhere between med-hard

[hallow scroll]

im proud that I at least managed to solve my google questions

[quaint bolt]

I’m proud of you too mr juster

[hallow scroll]

even if I didnt pass at least I solve it

[mighty path]

bro i would intern at msft ez

[stark basin]

MST is fine
don't give me dp hard

[quaint bolt]

LOL same

[hallow scroll]

still ghosted

but

fall starts in like a month lol so probably reject

my msft interview was my hardest interview ever

[mighty path]

interviewer be watching me look up "how to append to list in python"

[stark basin]

I don't see anything wrong with that

[hallow scroll]

mf gave me a lc ultra hard

[lethal sand]

@stark basin did you get the Amazon 1×45 interview?

[mighty path]

im scared for interviews like that

[stark basin]

if they ask me to use C++ for the code exam you bet your ass i'm looking up "how to insert into vector C++"

[mighty path]

like what do i even do at that point

[stark basin]

the final 45 minute interview?

[mighty path]

bet ur ass im looking up "what is a vector cpp"

[lethal sand]

yeahh

[stark basin]

doing it next Monday

[proud whale]

doesn't seem like there is an OA2 this time

[hallow scroll]

i have no idea, it was my second interview so I couldn't even solve it in general

it was a tree problem that wasn't binary tree so I just lost

[stark basin]

they made the second part harder

[quaint bolt]

No you always pick not pushing back deadlines

[mighty path]

you gotta pick the balance

[proud whale]

i've heard u just always pick whatever puts the customer first lmao

[stark basin]

yeah but none of the questions I got had customer

[mighty path]

its the balance of put customer first, kill wlb, and dont push deadline back

[hallow scroll]

Amazon moment

[proud whale]

goals 😻

[mighty path]

Amazon moment

idk im vibing at the zon

[quaint bolt]

Actually the kill wlb ones get docked lol

[quaint bolt]

He’s such a chad, he worked at JS and used to meme about being a janitor there

He’s like the first person JS allowed to work fully remote from Toronto even after RTO

[rugged knoll]

I have a cisco meraki interview coming up and the recruiters email said, "For this interview, you will be required to complete the coding exercise in C/C++. You will also need to demonstrate proficiency in the application of bitwise operations in a real-world setting." I asked her to clarify if this meant the questions we were going to code were going to be with bitwise operations and she didnt respond. Do you guys think this means coderpad can be any type of question on top of trivia about bitwise?

[sinful locust]

can you make boba in c++

[stark basin]

"Application of bitwise operations in a real-world setting" doesn't sound like it's just gonna be bitwise trivia

[worn bear]

yeah it could be anything

i agree with @stark basin doesn't necessarily mean trivia but they can still ask it

[rugged knoll]

makes sense, thanks for responding! @stark basin @worn bear

[stark basin]

good luck

they ghosted me

[rugged knoll]

ty, i applied for fall and they rejected me but sent me the written interview for winter like a month after

didnt need to do codersignal the second time around

[idle briar]

only got partial test cases on the meraki OA for 2/3 problems

i can assume its a no righttt

[rugged knoll]

im not too sure but i dont think i got all of them right when i did it

[stark basin]

they probably read your resume after you send in the OA

[idle briar]

one of them i got all, but more than 50% of the others

[sinful locust]

can someone end my suffering

[stark basin]

[soft basin]

someone end the us

@hearty river somebody told me u have skill issue

what that mean

[soft basin]

i have a life issue 😎

[golden tusk]

Definitely not true lol, it’s just team dependent

[soft basin]

wlb is 90% on team lol

and even if amazon has a bad wlb they are hiring the most of faang rn 😭

[golden tusk]

Dang feels bad to not be a mod

[stark basin]

they get swag even after they get their offer retracted

[rugged knoll]

[sinful locust]

stop pinging

[sinful locust]

best cat

[soft basin]

who cares abt the swag when the best part is the pay 😈

[sinful locust]

Bad cat

[stark basin]

fuck em

[coarse crane]

maybe i will

[sinful locust]

[soft basin]

apple swag is pretty swag tho

[sinful locust]

Stop being a mod mr judah

I like you too much

Get another red role

Judah role

Hi anonmoly

[golden tusk]

They should blacklist by role but who knows

[earnest hatch]

Any pics of the swag?

"we're not gonna send return offer" swag

[hallow scroll]

yeah

[soft basin]

airpod pros i think

[hallow scroll]

nah its only like a soft resume screen

we gotta apply still, theyre sending out the application soon

[soft basin]

also discounts on apple products 😎

[hallow scroll]

so I think we end up being compared to the other greylock people, which is gg since there were so many cracked people there

[stark basin]

packing paper stuff

[sinful locust]

Hi

[stark basin]

don't want to scratch that to-do list after all

[earnest hatch]

[sinful locust]

yo

Ive been doing like 10 hour weeks

You dont know where I am?

[earnest hatch]

Less toxic culture there too, it's a blessing tbh

[sinful locust]

:yahkunassadcatemoji:

[near swallow]

meta is very toxic
everyone who works there is toxic

[sinful locust]

Amz meta

[earnest hatch]

Than Meta

[soft basin]

any faang is acceptable for me as an intern 😫

[native scaffold]

Does Amazon ask qs from the tagged set on LC for the 45 min final round intern interview

[sinful locust]

Yeah often

@gentle latchh please join me

I’ll refer you

[quaint bolt]

It’s random

[sinful locust]

I want judah on my team

[hallow scroll]

one of the top tagged too

[soft basin]

where do u work for?

[sinful locust]

stop

[quaint bolt]

Google

[sinful locust]

Basically

[soft basin]

ooh cool

[earnest hatch]

That's nice, but the general impression I get is it's bad WLB and managers put a lot of weight in your lines of codes you write

[sinful locust]

Yahkuna said he hates my company

[native scaffold]

Aah got it thanks! @quaint bolt @hallow scroll

[sinful locust]

He doesnt like finance

[cold path]

rentech

[sinful locust]

He wants to kill people

[soft basin]

amazon seems to be the easiest to get into for now

[sinful locust]

not really

[soft basin]

wdym

[quaint bolt]

ymmv

[sinful locust]

its the hardest

[soft basin]

for faang yeah

[sinful locust]

Amazons the hardest

Apples so easy

yes

[hallow scroll]

its just rng

[soft basin]

well they also hire the most interns

[hallow scroll]

my apple interviews were easier then amazon

[quaint bolt]

I know people who’ve been asked harder qs than what I’ve got at google

But in general it’s the easiest

[sinful locust]

Amzn hires the most but doesnt mean theyre easiest

[cold path]

so many pinkies

[quaint bolt]

It’s just me and juda

[cold path]

hey guys thoughts on giving me kirb role

[quaint bolt]

THOUGHTS ON KIRB ROLE

FOR ME

[sinful locust]

No its just judah

Everyone else here sucks

Except yahkuna ig

[quaint bolt]

Who are you?

[earnest hatch]

I remember a Lyft SWE saying they do a good job at filtering out assholes. Amazon is the opposite. Some of these interviewers are huge assholes.

[cold path]

ok what about dabi role

[sinful locust]

James

[cold path]

[sinful locust]

[sinful locust]

[quaint bolt]

Will you be at loo too

[soft basin]

amazon is the only company that responded for me

[cyan garnet]

[earnest hatch]

@hearty river I'm disappointed

fiverr.com yo

hi

[soft basin]

maybe juniors get priority

🤷‍♂️

[sinful locust]

is cisco meraki fullstack 2023 summer oa auto?

i just got perfect on all 3 qs on oa so im curious my chances of moving forward

[white zinc]

i did that for the winter oa and they never got back to me

[sinful locust]

damn

[white zinc]

i’m assuming the oa results are still valid for summer 2023 and i haven’t heard back from them abt that either lol

[golden tusk]

I have to keep up with judas

[golden tusk]

Can't reject if u don't apply

[white rampart]

[fiery schooner]

are there any referral links to use

[thin prawn]

Anybody here knows if it matters which email address I use for apps?

[past comet]

am using school email lol

[thin prawn]

Like is it okay to use my school address or should I make a new one

yeah i did the same last yr but idk somebody told me its not good

[past comet]

Oh is it 👀

[thin prawn]

I think im gonna make a new one specifically for apps

[past comet]

any specific reason ?

[thin prawn]

no idea bruh maybe they was capping

[past comet]

Umm yeah

[ivory ocean]

I don’t use mine

But that’s because my school email is temporary

So I want it to be with a permanent email

Although recently our school made our emails permanent

So

[pseudo orbit]

wait they did??? that's amazing lol

i was out here thinking we'd lose access to our emails

[coarse marten]

Github premium

[ionic carbon]

no, I instantly got rejected

2 times in a row :<

[ivory ocean]

Yeah we get ours forever basically

The terms of agreement says “until they need more space”

But in practice they never need more space

[sinful locust]

U international? Or lower class man?

[ionic carbon]

both … I am a sophomore and also and international

[hallow scroll]

They auto reject those people unfortunately

[sinful locust]

Lmao after i saw that Cisco discrimination thing first thing i thought about lower class was societal class

Cringe

[sinful locust]

LOL auto correct spaced the words out

[still pawn]

Bruh fuck Cisco lol

[ionic carbon]

in hiring process, it is societal class :<

[pseudo orbit]

does this mean we can get github premium free forever

[hallow scroll]

Don’t think so

True

[soft basin]

i’d rather get rejected than ghosted

[ember bison]

📠

[past comet]

Well then am i in interview queue ?

Umm makes sense, anyways am gonna bomb the interview anyways

[hallow scroll]

Yeah they reject super fast, if you haven’t been rejected yet that probably means they’re at least considering you

[past comet]

Is anyone here interning @ 🍎 other than mr chimichanda ?

[ivory ocean]

I think they deactivate the stuff

I didn’t know we got github premium

[past comet]

Sorry, at Apple, mb

Ah okay, i wanted to know about AR/VR team and Siri TTS team

[ember bison]

yeah im a customer service intern

[past comet]

Does apply have any ar/vr apps ?

[hallow scroll]

Think so yeah

[past comet]

Gotcha

[solar axle]

is the SIG codesignal proctored

[ivory ocean]

No

[solar axle]

and can we search things up

[ivory ocean]

Well wait I think there is an AI proctor

[solar axle]

oh ok

[ivory ocean]

Idk I forget now

Read the instructions it’ll say

[solar axle]

cuz idk if I should search things up on the same computer or differnt computer

[past comet]

Nope

no proctoring

[solar axle]

so no video or mic but do they track search?

[past comet]

no mic/video

but idk about tab switching etc..

[ocean relic]

You prolly won’t need it

It was fairly simple for a lot of people just take it

[solar axle]

yeah it was trivial

[soft basin]

man i hate backtracking

[hallow scroll]

Graph/matrix backtracking isn’t bad

But string/arr backtracking hurts my brain

[soft basin]

i was working on combination sum

nqueens 🤮

[hallow scroll]

[stark basin]

backtracking is easy
fuck binary search + hard dp

[fickle ivy]

i remember i was doing

[ember bison]

backtracking is hard

[fickle ivy]

cooin change

and i accidentally solved combination sum

but now i know how to do combination sum ig

[soft basin]

my doubt for this amazon oa is goin up

[fickle ivy]

has anyone

touched amazon oa

or optiver oa round 2

or done other zyvo zap-ns

[ivory ocean]

Just finished Amazon OA

Wasn't bad

Got 1 q optimal I think not sure abt the other

[fickle ivy]

ok

was it like

lc med?

[pseudo orbit]

ahhh damn

well now you know

[pseudo orbit]

lol nice

i think youre already on track for amz

[ivory ocean]

Kinda

Not sure abt the unoptimal

But I got all test cases

Optimal was an easy I’d say

Easy-NWS

Med*

[soft basin]

interesting

id say amazon is definitely rng

[stark basin]

wonder how rng the interview is

[soft basin]

word search II

😭

[stark basin]

saw a list of amazon questions on leetcode the other day and the only one marked as "don't have to be completely correct" is Median of Two Sorted Lists

[fickle ivy]

😭

[soft basin]

just talk to ur recuriter or someth

tell them that ur studies didnt go according to what u planned and that u may need an additional semester or two
