how hard is citadel oa?
Is there a new list of LC questions to grind? Ik previously we had like a list of 75, not sure if we still use that list
and should i go for speed?
is databricks oa auto?
neetcode
Ok cool thanks 🙏
anyone did mckinsey oa?
Was pretty hard last year
But also varying a lot I think, some people got easy ones
just did it, was like a leetcode med and a leetcode hard
whos that for
like easy med or hard
wdym?
it was two problems for me, a leetcode med and a leetcode hard
yh meds vary a lot in difficulty
i was asking if the med you got was more on the easier side or not
probably harder side
SIG phone just handed me my ass
interesting i got geometry
Yooo gl
isnt it 3 questioms
why is everyone saying 2
do u choose 2 out of 3
cuz its 2, 1st question is like a “do you promise not to cheat”
bruh
cscareers.dev is your one stop for getting through the interview.
I did, it's from ripplematch though so not sure if it actually means anything

How long does it take to hear back after taking Google oa
i heard back the next day
summer 2023
How did you get oa ?
Recruiter reached out to me
@sinful locust 🤐
Lol I literally just got a response rn let’s goooooo I passed
offer?
yo
yo
No phone interview now
did you do the group call?
Yeah @spice jetty
i got reached out to as well but im hesitant to do it
Once in my life I want google recruiter to reach out to me
NO
so you do the oa after the group call and then its onsite right?
Yeah
i was hesitant too, i say go for it
The OA honestly wasn’t that hard
2 days
im putting it off im not ready still 😭
Way shorter than other companies
I did it last night and just got a response a few minutes ago
u can schedule ur interviews for up to 3 weeks from when you pass the OA
im out of the country until late september lol
ah shit
as long as recruiter reached out to you I think u can start the process whenever you want
before apps close🫡
im not down to do it until october lmfao but ik that now is a good time to do it bc the official application isnt open
ill talk to her
thanks man
thx
For NG or intern?
stop

aiyo its open 
i cant referral trade in 3 weeks tho 
concurrency?
could u choose any lang
What does Optiver ask in their coding interviews?
fuck
In terms of concepts or particular data structures
Is linkedin oa auto?
well it shows missing page when I try to open it
yo
anyone here take databricks technical screen yet?
any ideas about questions/difficulty?
anyone here take databricks technical screen yet?
any ideas about questions/difficulty?
just go get amazon man
they're hiring everoyne
*everyone
lol i already did
fair enough lol but im still gonna end up taking the technical
isnt amazon kinda butcheeks to work for
I can work for anyone AND I MEAN ANYONE who will agree to pay me 160k+
and I can do anything... be it spying on citizens or selling crack
its just gca
just pay me
nah i mean after gca + phone screen
theres two technical screens (1 hour each)
average raytheon employee
In all fairness... some of you mf don't know what poverty is... I also don't know but I know how it feels when money are "tight"
and I don't wanna feel like that ever again
its ok we like money too
then it should not matter if it's daddy bezos or pablo escobar...
as long as you are legally safe and they pay you
get 💰
bruh
i will get microsoft and salesforce phones

my roblox interview invite is coming tomorrow

in canada?
everywhere

- L + ratio
How selective is Microsoft? Can I get an OA with 1 internship?
looks like the are selective... mfs keep ghosting me 2 years in a row
Sucks to suck, gotta be quicker bud
i had a meeting :(

Does C1 sponsor visa?
How tf does rippling pay so much is what I don’t understand
No
optiver oa is automated right
Yes
thank god i thought a company actually reviewed my resume and liked it 👍
I spent a couple hours on the OA and got rejected.. don’t waste ur time unless you know you’ll qualify
I didnt mention that on application, (gave codesignal) but now they've sent an email for the same .
i enjoy this kind of stuff so im happy to do it
Thank you for your interest in our Software Engineer Intern position at Optiver! We have reviewed your resume and are excited to move forward with your candidacy.
they lied
What they mean to say is that ATS reviewed your resume
Did you apply for multiple roles
wait
tell them u will fix their shit if they employ u
is this the company that asks u 80 mental math questions in 8minutes
100% internship guaranteed
Ok, since I got rejected by optiver anyway... When I was taking OA, I got calendar problem and find number of uncycled Trees that adhere to several specific requirements
so, at least my OA, wasn't really leetcode
the second problem could be easily solved by union-find algo
the first one... well you will just need to calculate the number of days between two days
uncycled graphs*
Is optiver OA auto?
cause technically tree is uncycled graph
number of graphs that adhere to requiremenets?
the requirements must be pretty strict or else it would explode
I don't remember but you are given like 48 hours
to solve all that shit
at least I was given that much time lmao
i might as well just start it now then
they do say that "typically smartasses can solve it in 2h"
but technically they give you 48h
to submit your answer
can a current intern friend of mine at linkedin refer me for the linkedin 2023 winter appilication?
im given 72h
oh, then it was 72.. I just remember that the number was fucking huge
Anyone know how long it takes for Imc to respond after the recruiter call? Forgot to specify with my recruiter lol but she said an email would be sent
Optiver's OA is really ez tbh... they probably throw away most people on screening tho
like the threw away me 
Wut. Isn’t it supposed to be hard asf
Optiver’a OA is tricky with the edge cases
unless u haven't taken any CS classes ig
They give the most basic cases and you gotta account for the others
thank u 🙂
Was it LC med or hard?
Yeah that’s what I heard
The second one wasn’t
I’m taking it today or tmr
It was a hella long problem
dude I just explained it earlier
It’s like using DFS and building off of it
Someone told me it felt like 2-3 meds chained together or something
yee it was
Basically a long ass graph problem
@remote tartan did u pass their OA?
Yea I have the recruiter call on Monday
Where? There’s too many messages I usually don’t read more than 50 latest so I didn’t see
fuck
I'm not a fucking parrot to repeat the same shit over again dude
😂😂
ctrl f
buy laptop
this guy is entitled af
Holy shit. I just found out there’s a search button on discord
You are not a karen and I'm not a manager
Not even capping I only started using discord not long ago and not often
i dont even understand what the expected output for this optiver OA problem is i tihnk were off to a good start
Where did I yell lmao I just asked
I see calendar problem and some graph?
Also isn’t the problem diff for everyone
Why would Optiver give thousands of people the same thing with 3 days
So I was mostly asking for level of difficulty
ngl
I'm speechless... mf, when people share their experience you should listen and either acknowledge it or not
i got the same 2 questions that he did judging by the problem titles
they threw multiple away with FAANGMULA + Quant + target school lol
not fucking start and discuss how it's not logical and there are many problems and other bullshit
engineers are snorting crack when reviewieing oa
No way
this shit is crazy
Quant comp rejecting with quant experience is crazy 😂
lmao
Yea its stupid
intern referrals is just whoever refers the most ppl and offer accepted gets a free ipad
theyre useless

so he put me through resume screening and shit
Maybe they look for Illinois schools like UIUC or some shit
bro i got my dads referral for cisco and still ghosted for summer 2021 
tf
lmao
Ye
bro i got RR'ed epic idk what they look for
wb 11/15 lol i think it was 11 not 12 actually
it was TLE
such a hard question
I just wanna pass my c1 and amazon final
if I get amazon I will be happy
if I get both
I will be double happy
if palantir won't ghost me after karat
I will not care 
Ye ur prolly good lmao just don’t fuck up tje Lp shit
ah rip same
i did the LP stuff. I bascially just said I never miss deadlines and I value work over being nice lol
deppeler?
Like I dont care about what poeple say I always meet my goals

lmao
not afraid to fuck over my coworker wages
if it's needed

what time lecture?
Daddy bezos will fucking cum over that phrase
andi wanna always learn new things
lol wisco
Yessir ur the perfect Amazon candidate now
lets go
while fucking warehouse worker's wages
hopefully they dont care about my TLE
you people should be happy for not taking 354 with doescher
for that one LC hard question
should always keep letting them know how frugal you are 
yooooo same time
someone yesterday said their friend got amazon offer after failing to get linear time solution for two sum so ur fine
oh yeah
they said they sorted it lol
yea fs
that sounds like a reddit story
mood
as in made up
yes
fuck
wtf
you guys should be happy to get her
ye
taking 354 last year with doescher was terrible
the number of moments on piazza lol
ye
basically pawned off mistakes to Tas
was a joke
so called university degree
did you take 354 spring semester?
yes
same 💀
and then there was a joke of a project in the last couple of weeks
like bruh with finals and all
i dont think hes teaching it anymore
i shouldve just skipped lecture and read the book
because both midterm and final were literally from the book
lecture was useless
do u know when they schedule ur amazon interview after oa
i got the invite early august and filled out their form but haven't got a time picked yet
same thing, I feel like they take a while to "find appropriate date"
kk ty
i sure hope it doesn't happen in the next two weeks bc that's when i'm moving back to campus
Ikr lmao
My school year has already began lmao
I’m in a whole other continent and I’m still interviewing I think you’ll be fine 
when does your fall term begin?
i thought ammy was gonna schedule my interview during classes
but then they scheduled me last min the week before classes
LMAO good luck
Bangladesh
I mean, to be fair, I don't think it's a "real" problem
You can always neglect your school for zon interview

I didn’t sleep during my 15 hours of flight time 
in the end i got easy anyways 😂
I just watched drive to survive
It's like, Zon can give you money but your school only takes money from you
Sorry 18*
the choice is simple 
ew dts fan
i don’t even pay for school
mf robbing them 
IMC and Msft both said they’d call me but then I said I’m in another country now they’re sending me Zoom/Teams links 
dude I wish I could
It’s actually really good tbh
papa and mama's businesses
bright futures is too goated

it's just not true tbf
anyone have insight on what the Bessemer Fellowship Program interview is like?
that's a hard thing to do 🤓 have to get that Business degree from Princeton to figure this shit out
business majors ain’t shit
Everyone has the right to an opinion, but not every opinion is right….. like yours 
esp at my uni
Last week
I imagine that people who go into Business major are either very fucking dumb or loaded
at my school at they do is party
I don’t know like 2 weeks ago
i got rejected too
because... like... can u even earn something as Business major unless u have connections and can get into company through nepotism ?
fuck nepotism
dw daddy will pay for ur sat for a high score 🥰🥰
I didn’t reply over the weekend and Monday 9am the recruiter emailed me again to schedule my phone 
I mean, merit based system is basically an utopia at this point 
bb
Pretty cool right
Is that spiritomb
yes
Banana + target school
loo
LOL tf
daamn
No one else did actually onsites tho??
they feed u after 7 h of meetings 
no lunch either 😭😭
Microsoft Vancouver’s got tiny offices compared to amazon but they get bananas 
a whole workday of onsites
Are you in nyc?

Y’all overestimate loo kids
Survivorship bias, while a lot of people do answer these surveys only the ones with high salaries will answer
that's true
also dependent on CoL
People won't brag about their 100k salary when others are bragging about 200k
georgia tech avg is 100k
But iirc like half the graduating class of ece 2022 are going to meta after graduation

And the numbers line up with GE return intern offers
Learning and decomp interview -> hm interview
I think there are like 3 more interviews
HM can be fully behavioural if you did well on the on-site
I heard there is like phone + code shit + HM
.
Yes
Learning looks like is always concurrency
Decomp is poor man’s systems design
you're not taking either pltr or akuna yeah
"poor mans'" 
Palantir maybe fall if I don’t get anything better
whats the best way to prepare for codesignal question 3
Akuna not worth it to shift my coop sequences
solve shit on leetcode/codesignal
and rng
ya fr
q3 specifically tho
Is c1 Technical intern program the same as sde just different naming?
I mean... what other options u have? 
ye whats the answer to this?

Bro how’re these US kids not happy with Amazon HCOL 
took them a week for me
They pay like 60/hour + 2.5k/month post tax housing it’s wild
privileged kids
Yahkub 
hehehe how does it feel
I’m taking palantir tho prolly
true
how's the new grad grind
i only want mcdonald’s swe

no faang or hft
wdym i solved a problem easier than 2sum
tell me if nyc is bearable in the winter
stop man, you all saying 2sum this 2sum that ib4 I get fucking hard dp problem for my final and will 😭 all over the place
If I get rejected after OA how long do I have to wait to reapply
mrmoney
I had valid parenthesis for my amazon final 
bruh
i had reverse linked list as a meta mock problem 😭😭
Yes
solved in 5 mins
Well they give you relocation
what is Appian
isn’t the bonus basically for relocation?
Funny meme roles have been abolished 
yo, u said ur zon was easier then 2sum, was it array shit?
it should be
uhhh sorta
becomes a mod n switches up 😪
well u will have to write a dm to someone who works there through the leetcode


"I'm good" 
ib4 he tells your hr manager about your high attitude and other bullshit 
Yeah... Like, I need a fucking internship... It's gonna be the last time when I will be able to get one... and I have none rn... The fucking transfer from Community College to Uni fucked my timeline over. I wish I knew better 😭
so Zon
daddy bezos
give me 2sum
so we could have 3sum
😌
😏
Bruhh

Anyone hear back after OA for hrt?
Yo, how hard is HRT oa?
It’s gca
Pointless tbh, resume screen afterwards

Same content

hrt oa what are these random letters
jane street gives u free merch if u get to the final
gonna spell ptsd soon
let that be your incentivization to pass the phone
why would i want merch from a company that will reject me in a few days
swag >> the actual job
if you get to the final
if i made it to final and don't get it
Damn i got 4 oas today
companies actually starting to process stuff

Mapa hash.

in fact, whenever I take codesignal I dont solve the problem because they are too easy
or python if you chose python
i don't remember
but i think i used hashmaps
either way
it's definitely randomized
so
matuda
where matuda
all problems can be solved with hashmaps if you know the test cases 
it's been so long since i've said that wow
@hearty river stop lurking
lads
do u know if when getting an internship offer i can ask for another office location?
like, in a different country 🙂
lol u can try
That is a long shot
the shitty thing abt reinterviewing at apple is needing to do leetcode problems in objective c
but you probably wont get it, especially in a different country
someone kill me
That's because they do expect you to use cpp or python. All other languages get automatically disqualified.
Ya
no
Can I dm u
DM’s
Probably
😔
Depends on your resume tho
If you have smth like usamo then maybe not but otherwise I don’t think the codesignal is a great filter
maybe if waterloo + icpc or something
There’s definitely more perfect scores on it than hrt can take as an interview
have you taken codesignal?
what about for mcdonalds
whats the bar
5 max flow questions
Nah
Not a tryhard
Gave up
Not grinding anything now
Grinding for Bloomberg
Nah
Heard back like Tuesday
Wtf
I’m grinding for it when it comes out
Like 170k
ghost ping
say it with your chest zip
didnt have to go bruh
you sound like my dad on a road trip when i was 12
stop
lepotassium
promo slow i heard
theres like 1000 levels
cause AI will take over listen to elon

@zealous trail wassup choom
for amazon intern oa for the LP part is it like a slider thig

slider
bet ok
does anyone know if its possible to move amazon summer to amazon winter?
amazon isn’t moving interns to winter as of now
hows OMC
oh i forgot ur pfp sorry m’dude gotchu
are they gonna have a separate fall 2023 app?
idk man
hope so
anyone got linkedin oa?
Yes
anyone that's doing meta ABCS get a confirmation email after filling out survey?
@jaunty cove what position was it for
You're already FT at Amazon though
75 minutes
full stack engineer intern
Its def automatedp
i gkt it within 2 hours
it says its
only 2 basic questikns
I cant see in the email
Im not sure
It doesnt say
Do u have the link for the app?
Can’t find it
look at linkedin intern careers or something on google
it sounds like basic questions so then they just screne ur resume
No
2 hours ago
im 2025 idk if that makes difference
Im not even a cs major i think i just got lucky with getting an early automated OA
Lol
I have no idea i just applied on linkedin to full stack engineer intern
Maybe its cause i graduate earlier than most people (dec 23 vs jun 24) and its a winter thing??
SEX IS A WINTER THING
◉‿◉
Damn first internship positing ive seen ask interns to work overtime https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/3184764110 Not surprising that its musks company
Overtime is baller
Get paid 1.5x
If you’re hourly
If you’re salaried take that L
wait am i allowed to work OT in a regular internship without justifying it lol
Im paid hourly and the OT pay is like u said 1.5x or smth and like 2x if u some crazy hours idk but am i even allowed?
depends
my company had a policy where hours had to be approved by manager
so i asked my manager for permission and he said it was ok
so i went crazy one week i did 14 hours overtime
and he said to calm down a little
so i averaged like 5-7 extra
Damn bruh wtf i wanna try asking but i just asked for a raise lol
you could say its for the sake of the project that you want to work overtime
How's the optiver OA
BOPTIVER
not bad
72 hours
so just make sure you have neat code or something
one could say
neetcode
im so sorry
lets write some neetcode

🟪
🟪 🍆 
🟪
Oh so there's basically no time limit
yeah
were they like lc hards
Lol
is it automated
Yes
kirby getting dicked down frfr
I aint getting past any HFT resume screen its automated
he a freak
Oh maybe it is
how many lores can it handle
Only one way to find out
do the lores have to be synchronous?
No
I think it’s probably a distributed queue
oh i c
Lore comes from different places
based
And you can subscribe to the central lore output of the queue
insertion ordered I guess
Yes very extensible, high throughput
Perfect for high frequency lore reading
Trading*
we should use the same design for our lore trading company
Is LinkedIn OA automated?
How hard is Optiver OA?
yes
Has anyone passed databricks technical interviews yet
Swe internship
Applied today, got it in a couple hours?
Has anyone done SIG recruiter phone interview?
Yep
resuming the LC grind soon im just recuperating after the previous oa
hoping the recruiter just didnt ghost
cuz its an email, i thought recruiters respond within a day
but tbf they have 100s of emails rn so
u have any information on it? i have my technical this tuesday
is it appropriate to ask my recruiter who my interviewers are
why do u want to know
sounds weird
so i can stalk them
true ok
lol
so i can play their linkedin voice intro and visualize the convo
Anyone passed databricks technicals
anyone take databricks technicals
Did rippling giv link during open house tday? I dipped after like half hour lol
