plus im referred
no, just some of the things are worded weird
you have to choose between "I'm always up to the task" and "I am a harder worker than many other people"
they take behavioral almost as equally important
brother how do u answer this
the right answer is "I'm always up to the task" because you dont compare yourself to others or some shit
like speedhawk said some of the questions are weird so you could slip up and select a not favorable response
for the ones i was dicey on i went slightly agree in one direction
anyone know anything about code2040?
some of them were complete wildcards like "It's important to be grateful" vs "I welcome change in the work environment"
like I had no clue what to do for some of them lol
yea
most are obvious
no but one of the core principles is respect your team
yea exactly this is why its stupid
75% of the answers are obvious tho
if you guess on the other 25% ur still gonna get like an 87
ivy + referral + all cases passed on OA
i swear if amazon gets me on the LP i’m gonna give bezos two lazy eyes
Lol
yo is this goku
did u end up getting oa ?
nice
👍
me too
i will get mine soon
goku dont you have your final coming upp
just checked with hr, ur blacklisted sorry
yes
goku why do u send 2010 facebook gifs
These are funny

freesmilies
stop
Does anyone know if I get a Citadel referral should I still apply?
what kinda question is that lmao
if u got a referral didnt u want to apply in the first place
…
I got referred by I am wondering if should still submit an application
dude read over what u said..
I didn't get an OA after I was referred but it seems the OAs are automatic
Bruh I know what I am saying
Not necessarily
A lot of companies will just take the resume from the person who referred u
And u don't need to submit a seperate application
With referral
?
Ok I see
stop praying u don’t even need it
no go back to hrt
stop taking my offer
ok good
tell ur recruiter that pls and ty
damn bro i havent got an amazon OA yet is it over
info sci here i come
😦 my status just says application submitted
whend u apply
what
yeah I think its a rip for me
im gonna try to get a referral tho
if i already submitted its too late?
STOP
if i applied to a company with the wrong grad year what do i do
Maybe find a recruiter and inform them? (if you really care about the company)
what to do with amazon recruiter linkedin
whos in charge of hiring interns in my location
i dmed
but if he doesnt respond
do i dm
again
or do i take the L
oh rly?
wdym
probably just look for school name grad date number of exp etc
some people get hard meds on OA
yo
yeah it is
just hope for the best and prepare for the worst
facts
I got 2 mediums for amazon OA
really
lol
damn
stop
stop
seriously
really
lol
damn
I think I got an easy and a med for my amz OA but I blanked out :3
Really shouldve give some other OAs before amazon lol

💀
@rustic topaz any faang

cold compress is good for dark circles
Idk
@hearty river

@hearty river @hearty river @hearty river
The only Ackerman I know is Levi

And mikasa yes
basicslly u know amortized union find right
u have to make it immortal
Alright

I mean without path compression it’s still decent?
🙁
WOAH
can u just use path compression and not rank
whats the time complexity
Yeah I’ll say that’s decent for anything below n = 1 million
have you ever used union find on an interview?
no
good
ok
ok
🧠
Fuck all of u guys I hate everyone
Same
true
Union find more like go find yourself some bitches

let it live on
ok thanks
yaboona

lemickey
You can't say that.
@simple garden

'amongus>
path expansion
stop
yeah isnt it like n! permutations
Did anyone else not get the Roblox email? Apparently they sent some shit out but I completed the OA over two weeks ago and didn’t get anything. Maybe I have an L coming my way

is the oa automated for roblox
i want to try the deer matching game
why
what if im really good at it

damn
this lol
Damn just got rejected from Roblox 😭
Dubs
Brb gonna enjoy my fat Roblox stacks
Why did I get neither lmao. They forgot about me
After final or OA?
i really liked the epidemic game from roblox's oa last year
rejection
is that back
After OA
thats so amazing
aw hell no
its so fun
I’m too smol brain for final lmao
For what?
for what
Like just to have
The one I got at Zara was like $50? Idr
what abt interview bro lmao
Lol my friend said “$150 is on the low end”
I still have it it’s so comfy
well for a nice nice dress shirt yeah
he aint wrong
Is your friend shopping at aritzia or what 
my prom suit was like 750
Do they have aritzia in the us
Nah he ships at kiton and loro piana lol
Or is it a Canada thing
Yeah they do
$600 dress shirts lol
what his parents do lmao
Business
So you’ve never been on the boyfriend couch 
His parents have a place in billionaires row lmao
Idk lol
Well his dad isn’t a billionaire
fr
I hadn’t heard of aritzia until I went shopping with my date either so dw 
Like $180 for a pair of pants
Dude rich people have hella connections tho like they know so many people

Like they somehow know all these people just from being this rich lol
yeah thats why
im on the grindset
so that my kids can go to exeter and live that life

So Is “$150 on the low end” is cap obviously
Richest = WashU
Bruh is it just me or is this recruiting cycle a lot harder than usual
Yes you can get good dress shirts for that amount
Why
high price for good quality = low price for good quality
It really do be like that
Last year I had a couple offers by end of August
citadel is sexy as fck
recruiter? i hardly know her!
This yr I’m barely getting OAs
Mfs can’t wait one day for Amazon OA while I waited 2 months last year 
He says his dad isn’t giving him any money on his will tho lol
i waited 1 month this year 
i respect taht they have their own application page and their site parsed my resume perfect
im an only child
now going to college
so my parents and grandparents
its all mine lmao
i waited a month this yr and now i’m officially in 😈😈
Wtf
indian grandparents are actual 🐐
Chilll
Lmaoo
What was I doing when I was incoming freshman
interning at HRT?
Fucking around with my friends and ex
If u guys had 10 million would u even work
No
No
Then what would u do lol
Yes
Watch anime
damn
But I wouldn’t work for money
bro flexin
Smh rookie mistake
It’s either a relationship or internship
No I’m between
Dude that would get so boring after 6 months lol
Well where’s ur internship
YAHKUNA capital
@yahkub
No I’m the new yahkub
some cs majors pull bro

Do u guys understand how frank Niu retired at 30? Idk how TF he retired so fast
He prob has side hustles
Pulling in hs is different
why
i didnt pull an hs girl though
i pulled a MILF
Look at his tiktok lol
Ok u can have her lmao she dead beat
bruh
If you can’t pull in uni that’s a skill issue 
Zoom DM
Lol no
I was already in a relationship during covid times but broke up a bit before this summer and my internship was in-person so ez clap 
i don't think he's living off a lo of money now
I do agree it’s hard when it’s all online but everything’s back in-person now
Only had gf for 4 months in high school have been alone after
Yea at his peak
but he said he only has 2 mil saved
Yes I merged 6k lines directly into prod
How tf do u retire with only 2 million?
you're only supposed to take out 4% per year
so .04 * 2m is 80k
so he's living off 80k?
yes
2 million is nowhere near enough to retire imo
i could be wrong but i think that's what he said
400k per year?
He has to live off a budget then
that's what i suspect
Idk lol I mean I’d have most of it in bonds and stocks and stuff
no
i don't think he's a scammer or a fraud i mean most engineers never get tl at netflix
Let say he invested 1 mil into the market average 7% he makes 70k off that but then again the market is way down this year
he's prob down this year but market always returns
He’s definitely down this year if he invested in VOO only way he’s up is if he’s Warren Buffett
The yield on that is so low tho
And 2 mil isn’t enough to have a significant return
I’d want 10
yeah he aint up fs
Gotta pay tax on house, gotta pay for kids etc
as long as u live below returns your value will always trend up
Yea but the market is way down lol
fr
skill issue
10 million let’s say and u invest 5 even a 2% yield on that is 100k
Yea being very conservative
Most are just in the market
If I were working I’d be riskier w my investments
Not when I’m retired
I mean 160 is alright yea but if u work u can make way more than that
No lol
I also think buying a A house with cash is kind of dumb
So he’d have mortgage with interest
- tax
NYC is so bad for taxes
nvm this sucks
Income tax
what the fk is this fox shit
Lol look up tribeca average income
Rich part of NYC
7k a month for a cardboard box 1 bedroom
Cuz it’s prestigious
A year
I wouldn’t say even finance people lol
Probably just generally business
Or celebrities
Brownstone
It Looks so old
Lol all the people that live in billionaires row
Are either big shot finance people
Or Chinese businesspeople
Yes that one is sick
Lol my friend said he’s gonna just live there for his SA instead of renting out a room
But his dad isn’t even in the US
So it’s essentially all his
Lol nah
It’s funny cuz I’m gonna live in a cardboard box
Meanwhile he’s living in billionaires row lol
All to himself
For what
Like the room?
Nah I haven’t
I’ll try
But it’s hard
Yea
Cuz it’s super cheap
So high demand
Yea
Lol that’s kinda like such a flex tho
If every SA talks about where they live
And this man just says where he is at
Why
Lmaooo a lot do tho
Such as an MD’s son
Or client kid
30k allowance
Wtf
That’s absurd
what's even a good entry level salary for a NY company
Isn't 60k like barely liveable for ny tho
ny or nyc
if nyc you can afford to live in an abandoned subway line underground
on 60k
Nyc
depends on the borough
staten island yea you could probably pull it off
manhattan nah
bronx you might
which borough
brooklyn
havent been to brooklyn much but i know 90k is like the comfort zone
dont know how well youd be with 60k
what about Bronx
bronx cheap asf but i dont know
Ah fair
was your interview shridhari or smth
stick to bronx/staten island and youll be fine if your making less than six figs is like the general rule
Good evening.
west coast moment
citadel here you guys are rejected
you should be good enough to pass. Did you mess up anything?
yeah same
common mistake
i did with cpp so it was bad
ull hear back is 2ish days
was it today
why not just pursue qr?
and why he ask conceptual questions? Did you put db and networking on your resume?
giga chad
how likely are you to get bit manipulation questions on interviews
yup same
lmfao
for(int i = 0; i<b; i++) a++;
return a;
no + operator 
My entire Amazon oa and final was only bit manipulation
fuck the west coast
are you trolling
after goku i cant detect trolling on this server
true
dracos failed edge case
yes yes
you showed it
going to sleep, gonna wake up to an Amazon OA 👍
going to sleep going to wake up to c1 recruiter call
last thursday
vexor just really wants a winter internship
yeah just pass databricks phone
Does databrick have remote option?
yes
how long after submitting oa do you get databricks decision
I got mine the next day
accept or reject
Accept
are u faang
Yes, facang
oh
he didn't say facang tho
Capital one

😁
i hope i get it
What u got
wdym
yea but i need to be good enough to pass resume screen
C1 > G
i haven't gotten rejected yet 
apply with a different email
do u mean internships
When did you submit phone
Yea
but then i would have to retake codesignal
datadog?
then retake like I retook
i already need to retake codesignal on my main account for hrt
That’s prolly good enuf
and perfect codesignal
and i think they can detect alts that take tests within 2 weeks of each other bc you show id
I thought u did codesignal in python
so im praying
When u submit OA
it needs to be only c++
why
I thought hrt allows python
Oh
bc i applied to c++
hrt allows python
You’re fine
why did u apply to c++ apply to python
Ask n3 for a referral
on the application it says you have to do it in the language you specified on the application
and i specified c++
Can they check?
yes
dat adog
doesn't matter bc i think i did some problems in c++ lol
hrt has more slots for C++
but i didnt want to redo gca in C++
because
they do more work in C++?
what are u asking me

i did this in march so i wasn't that great at python and i didn't do this with hrt in mind lol
I'm not talking to u 

💀
my apologies
wtf so u learned python recently
paper notes
it's really easy to learn

@crisp berry
@rustic topaz
Isn't that linear space?
imagine doing this in an interview
😭
they'll probably tell u to optimize
no its not
there's no way to solve it in linear space and linear time
yes it is
str[::-1] creates a new string
look at the daily question today LOL
wym
oops i mean better than linear space and linear time
You can do o(1) space
i thought it was a view
you can do o1 space
O(1) space is O(nlogn) time
also yes u can do O(1) space
you can use two pointers?
no u just go to the middle of it and expand
have u done the other palindrome problems
Palindrome

yea ripplematch asks if you're an athlete
ripplematch is scummy
Is ripplematch a big tech
yes
i applied to datadogs and then a employee at ripplematch NOT datadog sent an automated message to me on linkedin 20 minutes later saying "Thanks for your application for software engineer intern. I was impressed by your background. (please fill out this form on ripplematch)"
ripple match is either no name companies, f500 non-tech, or financial
no big tech is on there
yeah they do this
U gotta sign up for ripplematch
I got reached out on linkedin to finish something but I got the interview for the company so ig its legit
its outsourced so its sketch as hell, the guy was working in Beijing
cockroach labs
yes
winter 😍
that just means less applicants because people see ripplematch and dont apply so less competition 🧠
they just sent me a link that redirects to the home page of ripplematch lol
@hallow scroll

You can only use this command in 2022_winter_intern_process, 2022_summer_intern_process, 2022_grad_process, 2022_fall_intern_process, 2023_summer_intern_process, 2023_winter_intern_process, 2023_grad_process
Why
!avatar @sinful locust
your mouth look like an egg
For people who got referred to Uber and applied to both UberStar and SWE. Did you only get one job as primary interest and second only if the first doesn't work out. Cause the person who referred me said:
" I can only add one position as the primary interest. I added the other one as additional interest in case the first one doesn't work out"
