[oak kite]

🤡

[coarse marten]

Hopefully it will be 5/5

Now it's 3/5

[shadow shard]

got another 45 min interview for citadel after the 3 onsite technicals

is this just another technical

also does this mean i only partially bombed onsite

[uneven sand]

Is it a leadership call?

[shadow shard]

no it says with another engineer

[north portal]

might be behavioral or a debrief interview

[shadow shard]

i expected to get reject lmao i fucked up onsite pretty bad

[north portal]

they might just tell u if u get next interview or if u get rejected

[uneven sand]

also how is the on-site

[north portal]

oh

[shadow shard]

i got 2 interesting qs involving computing statistics and a calculator parsing problem

[uneven sand]

interesting

[shadow shard]

would be pretty brutal if they schedule an interview just so they can reject me

[cloud widget]

anyone did non-coding technical chat with bloomberg?

[violet kelp]

I never expected IMC’s OA to be so brutal😭

[ivory ocean]

They pay a lot

[zealous trail]

Probably

If they didn’t call it leadership and it’s formally scheduled as 45 mins it’s probably extra signal

[jaunty cove]

their oa was easy as fck i guess i gotl ucky

[violet kelp]

Would be a dream to get in

Has anyone gotten an interview there after only getting 1/2 coding questions there?

[grand bane]

anyone had datadog final yet?

[neon junco]

Just did Cisco SWE OA but I was also sent a Cisco Meraki OA. Are they the same thing?

Or will it not let me take the Meraki OA now since I already did the normal Cisco OA

[hallow scroll]

yes

[neon junco]

Okay thanks

So I don’t need to take the meraki one too right

[hallow scroll]

it shouldnt let you

[neon junco]

Okay thanks

[gilded crag]

[rustic topaz]

I literlaly bombed that

[hidden gust]

i heard a completely different story...

[rustic topaz]

How old are you?

[hidden gust]

microsfto and google are much harder on return offers

[low vale]

i spoke to some amazon engineers and they said "as long as you're not less than useless you can get a return"

[jaunty cove]

Lmao

[hidden gust]

didn't you get amazon offer?

[stoic glen]

Just turned 21. I have lots of friends who are older. Some work at FAANG and other are in investment banking. They've said the same thing

[zealous trail]

It’s possible not too

[rustic topaz]

[hidden gust]

[rustic topaz]

but

[jaunty cove]

[rustic topaz]

I mean, I feeel like I passed my technical and behavioral

I just was ass on my case

[stoic glen]

No I graduate in 2024. My university has a final year research project and I'm doing 6 - 7 internships (1-2 more to go)

[muted summit]

[muted summit]

[low vale]

[rustic topaz]

how you gonna tell me to go party

and you gonna do 6-7 internships

😐

[stoic glen]

Yeah some of us mf's gotta do that to get noticed. Bro, I'm still sitting on my ass after applying to 50 places this year with 5 internships

[rapid swan]

@queen raven

[stoic glen]

Because I've gotten drunk on Monday mornings at IBM, and still got a return offer

[rustic topaz]

I applied to like 200+ already. Only heard from RBI, Capital One, and Amazon

[halcyon wedge]

I noticed as well

[jaunty cove]

nobody else??

[rapid swan]

mods wen

[rustic topaz]

nope

[jaunty cove]

what about automated oa

[halcyon wedge]

Mans back for some more content

[rustic topaz]

I failed most of em 💀

[safe minnow]

Does roblox give actual rejects or is it just ghosting

[low vale]

over 200 already???

[rapid swan]

[stoic glen]

Nice. Mines is for internships though. In Canada. I heard back from rbi, but fucked it up

[rustic topaz]

fuked up what?

[stoic glen]

The behavioral portion. Idk how I didn't move on

[halcyon wedge]

We always baking content

[rustic topaz]

How tf do you mess up behavioral?

[queen raven]

I’m a fan account lol

[halcyon wedge]

[safe minnow]

Did you assault the interviewer or

[rustic topaz]

Even juda reacted

im dead

[low vale]

what company is rbi?

[stoic glen]

No idea dawg, no fucking idea. I thought I answered well, and the interviewer said she liked how I related all the questions back to a practical example

[jaunty cove]

some fast food company

[stoic glen]

I said Hi, instead of hello. I think that might count as harassment

[low vale]

My hardest interviews have been karats 💀

question-wise

[rapid swan]

LOL

[safe minnow]

So is the resume screen the harder part

🤔

[low vale]

what do they check for on the resume screen?

[ivory ocean]

No DP (dick pics)?

[stoic glen]

No, it's sending in the online application
That's by far the hardest part

[ivory ocean]

Is Google even open still

I missed it

I think

[stoic glen]

Ask them to hire you

[safe minnow]

Damn

[halcyon wedge]

Not open yet

[low vale]

idt they even opened lol

[muted summit]

intern asks dp???

[low vale]

My meta referral gonna expire if they don't open up soon

[ivory ocean]

Bettttttt

I think my dick pic game is Ight

[stoic glen]

Feels like a fuckin Friday, cuz school starts for us tomorrow

No Friday for some reason

[safe minnow]

The computer

[stoic glen]

I don't fucking know why

[safe minnow]

Works like a charm

[ivory ocean]

The wheel because it was the single invention that’s lasted 10,000 years

[jaunty cove]

your product 😍

[rapid swan]

[jaunty cove]

yea finding the recurrence relation is never hard

just use cahce

[ivory ocean]

Mr. Juda how are you

[low vale]

nice, what company?

[rapid swan]

fig

ma

[ivory ocean]

I’m good

[muted summit]

boutta swap to python just for cache

[ivory ocean]

I applied for grass deprived or whatever the role was and then they deleted it

Very sad

[ivory ocean]

But I heard c++ gets more cash

🙂

[jaunty cove]

its obvious unless its not

[ivory ocean]

I’ve never given recurrence relation for recursion

I do the O

No T

Is that bad

[jaunty cove]

its obvious if youve done 100s of dp problems and are a competitive programmer 😐

think about it from the perspective of some freshman applying to internships and all they know is syntax

[ivory ocean]

Wait n3 does comp programming? I wanna get started with that but can’t figure out how to start without it being a shitfest

Oh yes

I will memorize it

That’s like the guy who told me to memorize the official C++ book

It’s like 1200 pages

What platform do you guys tend to use (who do comp programming)

[jaunty cove]

no the comp programmer book is nice

every book on C++ is unnecessarily hard to read

[ivory ocean]

Oh lol when he said that I assumed it was sarcasm

[jaunty cove]

bc C++ is unnecessarily hard to program in

[ivory ocean]

I’ll check it out

[ivory ocean]

Okay but someone solved an LC hard at compile time

Giving a 0 ms solution

[jaunty cove]

are u gonna tell me thats easy to do

[ivory ocean]

No

But it’s cool

[jaunty cove]

yea

which problem was it @ivory ocean

[ivory ocean]

Some chess one it’s famous (the problem is)

Queen something

[jaunty cove]

n queens?

yea

do you have the soltuion

[ivory ocean]

No

[jaunty cove]

https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/3184/solve-the-eight-queens-problem-at-compile-time

yes

[ivory ocean]

There ya go

Im headed to class or I woulda found it

[jaunty cove]

i mean u can solve this at compile time by just

returning n queens (8)

hm

[ivory ocean]

A guy in that thread has a solution

[jaunty cove]

some guy did it in haskell

[ivory ocean]

Madlad

[jaunty cove]

idk how u do this kind of stuf

[ivory ocean]

Me neither

I haven’t really tried to dive into it yet tho, I’m too busy atm

[jaunty cove]

Is Optiver oa auto?

[jaunty cove]

Given an array, reduce the array to a single element with minimum cost. For reducing, remove two elements from the array, add those two numbers and keep the sum back in the array. The cost of each operation is the sum of the elements removed in that step.

Is it this

[jaunty cove]

yes

[karmic path]

And is it supposed to be 72 hours in length

[jaunty cove]

yes

[rustic topaz]

No

There was no cost

[jaunty cove]

?

[rustic topaz]

It was a greedy question

And the other one was matrix math

[jaunty cove]

this is a greedy question

you heapify it and then do what the problem asks

[rustic topaz]

Well the one I did is even greedier

[hardy patrol]

interview time baby

[jaunty cove]

good luck

[rustic topaz]

You did amazon?

[jaunty cove]

[rustic topaz]

Alr

I gotta practice bruh

Especially math

I fumbled so hard on that c1 interview and now matrix math

[sinful locust]

Wouldnt you just greedily remove the 2 smallest every time

Pop from the heap twice and then insert the sum back

[rustic topaz]

I failed so hard

You don’t understand

I’m actually disappointed that I failed compared to getting offer at amazon

[jaunty cove]

you already got a better offer

its ok

if youre upset about your performance itself then you got time to practice

[jade elm]

U got amazon but not c1? That’s still good man

Which company if you don’t mind?

[rustic topaz]

Just sent email to my professor

Lmaoo

[jade elm]

Ahh hopefully u got it

[jaunty cove]

optimal solution is to build in minecraft and place water buckets everywhere

[jaunty cove]

they hired 17k last year @hardy patrol

[hardy patrol]

oh what lmao

[woeful lynx]

Hahaha I though trapping rainwater was hard (without checking solutions I would never find the optimal solution) but damn this is way harder 😅

[jaunty cove]

i think this one is actually just an extension of the first

like the trick in the first is the same here

[tawny nimbus]

would u guys do cisco or c1

can you give me any tips to get good at problem solving?

i am sooo assssss

[jaunty cove]

its literally practice

[safe minnow]

Wtf is this

[rustic topaz]

bro looks goofy

[jaunty cove]

ok but thats not in anyones control

you can control how much you pratice

[rustic topaz]

Yea

that's what I want to change

how do I practice efficiently

What am I doin wrong 😦

[jaunty cove]

the more time you spend figuring out how to practice efficiently the less time you spend practicing

[vapid blaze]

nah no chilling until we're 'tech consultants' who eat fancy food on company time for a living

[hardy patrol]

i like how you think bean

[rustic topaz]

wtf is echelons

[vapid blaze]

the more you understand the problems the better off you are

[jaunty cove]

the gap between what

[vapid blaze]

if u can see a problem and say hey ik the ds/algo for this

[jaunty cove]

my theory is these people are literally always thinking algorithmically

so life is practice

for them

even if theyre not on leetcode

[rustic topaz]

No

You use sorting and heaps depending on the question

BRO

I only get paid 1.8k month for relocation 😭

This looks like

it's from neetcode

[jaunty cove]

the problem seems so complicated and then the optimal solution is only a few lines

hypothetically insert interval should be an easier version of this but i find it harder

[fathom hazel]

i got an interval question for my Google Phone

[jaunty cove]

python will also sort by first anyway

0th inde

[vapid blaze]

should probably learn py

[jaunty cove]

instead of worrying about lambda functions, if i n eed to sort by multiple keys i just do multiple sorts lol

[vapid blaze]

is map of key->list/linkedlist a good practice?

[near swallow]

U will get docked for that in an interview

[vapid blaze]

i feel like its janky but

[jaunty cove]

docked for what

[near swallow]

For ghetto sort

[rustic topaz]

for what

[near swallow]

OA is fine

[jaunty cove]

thats cringe

its about the same speed anyway

[fathom hazel]

you mean
{key : ListNode(), key2 : ListNode()} ?
yeah i do this for Deep Copy LinkedList something

[jaunty cove]

how are u sorting in O(n)

[near swallow]

lambda is just nameless func so if it’s easier cognitively just make a func called sortOrder and pass it into sort()

Have the func return a tuple of the keys u are sorting by

It’s not hard imo

[jaunty cove]

sortOrder which takes in two elements and returns True if the first is less than second?

did you have to look it up

to provei t

[versed kestrel]

lmao

[jaunty cove]

like that must have been so embarassing

for them

[rustic topaz]

Heapify is O(n)?

Are you serious

[versed kestrel]

yeah but you gotta do it from the end up

[jaunty cove]

[rustic topaz]

Oh

yea

you're right

I just googled

[jaunty cove]

its n log n to push n elements into a heap but heapify is on

[rustic topaz]

I thoguht it was log(n)

[jaunty cove]

💀

[rustic topaz]

guys

it's not that funny

[jaunty cove]

that would mean ordering N elements without looking at N elements

[fathom hazel]

heapify O(n)
heappush O(logn)

-> so heapify an array is O(n)
-> and heappush an array is O(nlogn) i think

[rustic topaz]

Multiple heappush is nlogn right?

[fathom hazel]

yes

[jaunty cove]

what is one heappush

[fathom hazel]

logn

[jaunty cove]

yes

[drifting wharf]

Is it just me

[jaunty cove]

so what is n heap pushes

[rustic topaz]

I bombed my OA for RBI

LMAO

[drifting wharf]

Or is the nearest Roblox interview time in fucking November

[rustic topaz]

RBI is literaly hard asf

💀

Bro it was literally a greeedy question

i got 7/15

and the second was matrix math

and I couldn't solve it

[drifting wharf]

Has anyone scheduled their Roblox final recently

[rustic topaz]

because I am ass at math

[jaunty cove]

how do you bisect a deque

[fathom hazel]

a deque is just a list iin python i think
so its just a list

[jaunty cove]

if its not fixed size its a dll

[rustic topaz]

RBI?

that's cap

No way

[jaunty cove]

python deque is not optimal time complexity on operations

[rustic topaz]

RBI hires from target

[fathom hazel]

yes

[rustic topaz]

the swe that interviewed didn't even have a degree

LOL

[jaunty cove]

it wouldnt be that fast

[fathom hazel]

i applied to Hibachi Grills Food

their software engineer is ass

i mean *Hitachi Energy

[jaunty cove]

i dont see how you could bisect a deque unless you allocate memory to the left of the first element when you push left 💀

[safe minnow]

What is that

[jaunty cove]

yes

but python deque is weird as fck

like

[hardy patrol]

what company are you under review for colin

amz?

[jaunty cove]

why are you able to index operator a deque

yes

[hardy patrol]

i thought you didnt get the oa

[jaunty cove]

i got it

[safe minnow]

Btw bisect on deque is n log n

[hardy patrol]

wtf nice

[safe minnow]

👀

Ayo

Let’s go

[jaunty cove]

i got the oa a week ago guys

ive been waiting for the final tho

do you think they just search left to N nodes in the DLL

and act like its O(1)

[safe minnow]

Apparently lookups are o(n) in dequeues

[proven geode]

how much harder is it to get into HRT/JS than google/facebook/apple/etc

[jaunty cove]

deque has a similar interface to list in python but idt that means they have same time complexity operations

necessariyl

list is more like a vector than an array anyway

[safe minnow]

Google/Facebook/Apple doesn't have a unified level of difficulty to get into either

[proven geode]

ah

[rustic topaz]

can't rn

How do you handle the case though where you have to revisit a node you already visited ?

ahh

what is bitmap doing here

[hollow sorrel]

No sponsorship

[jaunty cove]

i dont get it

oh like

[fathom hazel]

i hate bit manipulatio lol

[jaunty cove]

ur making ur own hash for the visited nodes

thats more efficient than using a hash set

ok

[rustic topaz]

@golden root

BRO

I GOT SAN DIEGO

I DON'T WANNA GO THERE

[fathom hazel]

i wanna go there 😭

[sinful locust]

NYC or Seattle

[jaunty cove]

Lol

[sinful locust]

Why not

[rustic topaz]

If GokuGate12! can get it, GokuGate13!

can probably get it too

[jaunty cove]

cardinality of visited hash set == number of nodes in graph

its just not as cool

[sinful locust]

Everyone can get zon

[jaunty cove]

frozenset

true

but arent both O(n)

is there less than 33 nodes in the graph

[rustic topaz]

no

why tf would be from california

[jaunty cove]

otherwise how do u store all the info in integer

[sinful locust]

💀

[jaunty cove]

you're soo good

[proven geode]

What's frozen set

Is that in the C++ STL

ah

[sinful locust]

McDonald’s

[near swallow]

If I understand right, you want to sort by several parameters (keys). So

# returns tuple which is hierarchical sort ordering used as param in sort(key=sortOrder)
def sortOrder(item):
  return (itemProperty1, itemProperty2, ...)

[proven geode]

You use C++ or Python?

[rustic topaz]

be serious

[sinful locust]

I’m gonna create my own startup

[jaunty cove]

ok interesting

cause mutable data structures are not considered hashable w/o ur own custom hash function

[near swallow]

i mean bear in mind that's just more steps than lambda, but it helps to think of it that way

[stoic latch]
