[sinful locust]

ddddddd

aight gn

[tawny nimbus]

wait kyoyoberry did u get roblox?

what did u get on gca

i've done both cog assessments

[spark hearth]

848

[uneven sand]

tbh if you have a decent software project, it probably was easy to sell for 10 mil pre-stock crash

[tawny nimbus]

bruuh

848...

[spark hearth]

@uneven sand got rejected with 849

[tawny nimbus]

how do u guys even get faster at codesignal

[uneven sand]

:(

[spark hearth]

ur gca doesn't matter

[tawny nimbus]

kyoberry how many cars did u get

on the cog assessment

on first and second one

[uneven sand]

apparently databricks rejects after hr call 💀

[still yacht]

10 mil if you raise a ton of money from VCs leaves u with not much lol after tax

[spark hearth]

LMAO NOooo

fk databricks

[tawny nimbus]

@spark hearth how manyc ars

[uneven sand]

[spark hearth]

[white urchin]

it's not just on map

[soft basin]

god mcdonalds apple pies are so good

[white urchin]

it's also on tools

[soft basin]

pure serotonin

[tawny nimbus]

but 848 on gca

[spark hearth]

yes everything is random

[tawny nimbus]

what do u even need on gca for roblox

im scared

[uneven sand]

even reject is random

[spark hearth]

lol

[white urchin]

i don't think gca matters

[tawny nimbus]

i usually get like 780

fr?

[still yacht]

The strawberry flavor one is better lowkey

[tawny nimbus]

so 780 would pass?

[obsidian olive]

ikr its insane

[white urchin]

resume, cognitive assessments imo

[uneven sand]

840+

[white urchin]

800+ would have been better

[obsidian olive]

same i ended up <750

[uneven sand]

roblox has a ridiculous gca bar

[tawny nimbus]

o

what if i have twitter on resume

[uneven sand]

then cancel roblox if they reject you

[clever grail]

i have a twitter account, should i put it on my resume

[uneven sand]

Booble

[white urchin]

you should be good

[tawny nimbus]

780?

[white urchin]

if twitter really is on resume

[tawny nimbus]

yeah i interned there this summer

[white urchin]

honestly not sure

can you re take for 800+

[uneven sand]

roblox gets a lot of big n applicants

[white urchin]

or is 780 from roblox

[tawny nimbus]

780 from other gca

[white urchin]

i would say take it again

[uneven sand]

having twitter may not be enough with 780

get 849 to be safe

[tawny nimbus]

aight

i hope i get lucky and get a nice q4

[uneven sand]

[spark hearth]

roblox likes banks

[uneven sand]

i had incoming c1 tho

[soft basin]

[spark hearth]

and I have some high school clubs on my resume

[white urchin]

math major from upenn

[uneven sand]

Hey <Recruiter>,

Unfortunately, some extenuating circumstances arose recently that will prevent me from taking part in the <Company> summer internship program this year. I want to make it clear that I could not have predicted this would happen during the time I had to consider my offer.

I understand that <Company> has likely made financial and logistical decisions based upon the expectation that I would be following through on the acceptance of my offer, and therefore I feel it's necessary to formally apologize for any inconveniences I have caused as a result of this.

I want to thank you personally for helping me along this processes and also apologize if this in any way negatively affects your situation as my recruiter.

I genuinely hope we can work together in the future, and I have nothing but positive things to say about <Company>'s internship process. I will continue recommending my peers to apply to your company, and I wish you all the best in the future.

Thank you again,
<Heartless reneging bastard>

[white urchin]

he's not exactly some bootcamp grad

[soft basin]

if i can push into fall ill just delay grad by one semester

[still yacht]

It’s not CS tho

[white urchin]

doesn't matter

[uneven sand]

also gpa means jack shit

[white urchin]

math is also seen as pretty good

[soft basin]

the one who owns algoexpert?

[spark hearth]

no u need high GPA for sentry

[soft basin]

gpa doesnt mean anything

i regret trying for a 3.7 gpa

[uneven sand]

he had upenn math + bootcamp which is probably good enough to get an interview

[white urchin]

it's just an interview and he got through

[uneven sand]

google sucks ngl

[spark hearth]

no

google sucks

c1 better

[sinful locust]

Yeah c1 > google

[uneven sand]

[muted summit]

saw some guy on r/leetcode say he got meta g amazon msft after doing lc for 14 hours a day for 2 months straight

did like 600 problems

that might be the method

nah us

he did like 450 easies and 200 mediums

[coarse vigil]

Bro put life on pause

[muted summit]

he said his strategy was to easies -> mediums -> hards in order

and by the time he was through 1/4 of mediums he had all the offers

for new grad

lc for 14 hours a day?

i dont think he was trolling

he showed his lc problems and timeline

how tf can you do all the easies tho

like fr

like after a certain point its not helpful anymore

[dusk kayak]

she said that she actually loved working with me and i brought good energy to the office when i came in

so i think i am a lock

especially because of our projects' performance

my plan is to make an FTE bidding war

[uneven sand]

[tawdry remnant]

[dusk kayak]

ping??

also manifesting recruiters when i wake up 🥰

[steady crow]

Why you gotta say it like that now you sound like an AI again

Basically you need to communicate in human language (usually English) and make sure that you convey warm kind feelings so that they want to hire you

I am not sure if your training data included that though

[dusk kayak]

i would definitely say theres diminishing returns

i feel like recognizing patterns is the main thing

^

i did like, a little spam

so i could recognize any sort of key words/phrases to use a pattern for

memorizing a few patterns isnt too bad, but i do like to learn what makes the algos/functions click

i dont have much LC because i like to really break down the problems that I do

i need to review hella though 😭 probably gonna start a new notebook on re-analyzing the blind 75

based on what ive learned

LMAO

[rustic topaz]

@queen raven how do you find the question based on the pattern?

[dusk kayak]

[quaint bolt]

Wtf

I was 1 min late to my databricks phone and they emailed me to ask if now’s still a good time

Email your recruiter

[tired garden]

What a waste of time. Yeah I emailed recruiter and coordinator..

[quaint bolt]

Dw it do be like that

[tawdry remnant]

has anybody else done amazon oa

[cold path]

hey has anyone done amazon oa? asking for a friend

hes above

[tawdry remnant]

thanks friend

[astral dew]

Yes, I took it on Saturday

Got easy-med, med. Also got 18/30 test cases. But haven’t gotten anything back yet

[vagrant wadi]

When did you apply?

[astral dew]

I wanna say the 28th last month, got oa aug 15th

[vagrant wadi]

Oh but you took it last Saturday?

[astral dew]

My fault. I got email the 8th and u know they take a week to send lol so I got it the 15th. And no the 27th- 2 days ago

Randomly at 3am

[vagrant wadi]

I see thanks man!

[soft mist]

Return offer rate completely depends on manager

You can do nothing and get RO if manager likes you

Likewise you can do 12 hours a day and get no RO if you get unlucky

Also some ppl got backstabbed and thought they were doing well until randomly got told no RO 💀

In reality I think in swe in general getting an RO is mostly out of your control

Just depends on how much your manager is willing to help you

Unless you’re a genius coder who doesn’t need any help at all

[coarse marten]

It shows db has a goated wlb

[coarse marten]

How is cit going? Cit will love 90hrs

Patience sort algorithm

[astral dew]

I’d do that for an internship

[naive pawn]

Hey anyone filled their availability schedule for Amazon final round but didnt get schedule after the entire duration?

Just asking for an idea of what happens after

[silent olive]

anyone do their amazon final 1x45 what was the format, how hard was the LC question

[soft basin]

that is an rng process lol

[dense nimbus]

Hey guys I finished the Amazon OA and got all the coding questions right. I think I also did fairly well on the survey. When can I expect to hear back for potential final interview?

I took the OA two days ago

[mighty path]

praying for palantir to not reject me after my karat interview 🙏

[tawny nimbus]

"what makes sig unique"

bruh no documentation is bad

[static spindle]

LMAO

thats kinda wild

never thought I'd see a firm say "less documentation pls"

[tawny nimbus]

fr tho

nah

never an issue

more documentation is better

most companies have shitty documentation

i mean are they ever really pointless

write as needed

but they're needed most of the tiems

its your time writing doc vs a bunch of other ppl having downtime cause htey're trying to understand the code

[sinful locust]

yo how is gusto oa

[versed kestrel]

at a point more is less

like most of them will be outdated

and become pointless

[static spindle]

I mean, my last internship was at a bank. There you have to document everything for audit purposes

I also dont think more can be less at any point with documentation. Just keep important things separate from non important ones, or update documentation. If its outdated then its just not good documentation

[versed kestrel]

then how do you make sure it's good

if there are so many of them

[static spindle]

Only bite what you can chew lol

Either way, I've never seen a case of too much documentation to the point where its breaking a project or hurting in any way

[versed kestrel]

hmm maybe I'm bit biased

like I would prefer reading code than comments

cause nobody ever update them

[static spindle]

Oh I really dislike in line documentation. I am more so referring to documents outside of the code

so if you are stuck or dont understand something refer to docs

[ember bison]

tbh good code should not need much inline documentation

the variable names, function names and modularity of the code should explain it well enough

[sinful locust]

STOP

[tawny nimbus]

^^

the thing is that with big companies and large codebases u need documentation not because code can be confusing but because u don't know how each system connects

[stone echo]

^^^

[tawny nimbus]

if someone is new to a specific part of the codebase then they wont know which services work with each other

its not about understanding the code, its about understanding how the entire system works

[stone echo]

its the compatibility documentation

yeah

[tawny nimbus]

are u under review for amazon

@stone echo

[stone echo]

yessir lol

[tawny nimbus]

does it mean anything lol

im also under review

[stone echo]

dont think so

when did you take the OA

[tawny nimbus]

oh D:

yesterday

did it in 9 min

[stone echo]

excuse me?

u did both parts in 9 minutes?

its so rng wtf

[tawny nimbus]

yeah

[stone echo]

i got a medium and a medium-hard

[tawny nimbus]

rip

[stone echo]

i got 15/15 and then 12/15

with time limit

wonder if ill get through

[tawny nimbus]

i got easy and a med

[stone echo]

lmk when/if you get final @tawny nimbus

cause im curious to see if they are just so backed up rn

[tawny nimbus]

kk

[stone echo]

that they arent evaluating OA

[tawny nimbus]

i hope i get one

[stone echo]

same lol

[tawny nimbus]

oh yikes

[stone echo]

u should be chillin

[sinful locust]
