not bad compared to most companies
btw anyone here did PathAI OA?
Is it skilled based match making?
Ok would u say it’s like mostly leet questions
how hard is PathAI
its leetcode questions hidden behidn a layer of bs that you have to decode
maybe 2 hards and a medium
What is OAs expectations?
the problem is doing it all in 90 minutes
Dman I suck
idk i think they were not hard hards its just hard to do 3 of them in 90 minutes
Oh okay
i passed almost none
Does anybody know the email extension that google uses for employees. I assume it’s just .google.com
Bro I literally just reversed a linked list
thats what im saying
Lmaoo
i still cant do that
its not problems that you wouldnt ever come up with the solution. its just hard to code working optimized solutions in a short time span
like i spent a lot of time trying to understand tf they were syaing
Fr
yea and that
What OAs have u done
id say it’s hard cause they give you a 4 paragraph essay
@lofty bluff
for a medium LC
yea
and then a 6 paragraph essay for a hard
whats up
How long does it take to learn sys design for swe intern interviews?
i see, im def may-aug but i prob won't even get in with my dumb ass
Ion think they ask that right
are ALL of hrt's oa's auto? not just swe intern
base
pathAi sounds hard ngl
Nah I was going to do designing data intensive applications
But that takes way longer to do and is more for FT
Yes
Idk if designgurus is enough but ik the book is top notch
It might be
Idk
become a snowflake
or is there a website?
bruh pathai just sent me email for my last year application as well
Lmaoooo
💀

@rustic topaz you say that now but wait until you spend a whole weekend oncall over a null pointer dereference
what companhy
so you've never experienced true pain
nice 
do you know you many logging services you're going to be looking through
how much undocumented shitty code you're going to be looking at?
how? at a company you have to interact with shitton of internal stuff
is pathAi leetcode oa
yo guys did just palantir karat, I only did 1 problem but the dude said thats all I need to do
am i fucked or no
Does databricks give everyone OA?
doordash just asked me to sign up on untapped. is that good or they do that to everyone
Pre sure ita 2+
fuck
yep
companies don't give a fuck about you
"Tell me about yourself" is way harder than median of two sorted arrays
you're basically an object to a company, the sooner you learn that the better. they have no loyalty to you so you should never have any loyalty to them
did u have the phone screen?
just finished it
Is 838 code signla good enough for hrt/2sigma?
no i am saying you give less of a fuck
nah but recruiter said the final is gonna be mostly behavioral
okay im in the same boat then
me
most people cheat in oas fwiw (not suggesting this, but just pointing it out)
how can yall tell an OA is auto
anything > amazon
has anyone done samsung research behavioural
Huh godaddy recruiter called me out of nowhere
Just right now
Told me a team wanted to schedule an interview with me
Told them sorry but that’s weird they never scheduled a call or anything
Same lol I got both
did u really
Yeah I got both too one says engineering co-op 2023 and one says jan-june 2022 engineering coop
Yeah I didn’t get the hackerrank still
They do to everyone
could someone explain the process after roblox oa?
at this rate id rather be unemployed
im doing that this semester
i need something for the summer
rn only company im in contact with is gov contractor to sell 0days to NSA for probably $20/hr
ig i should just wait until jan
Never thought I’d see the day duolingo would be throwing shade at adam levine for cheating
i barely see openings rn
whos adam levine
yo was it system design asking for a friend
can I dm about figma final
what's this whole thing about
is palantir oa auto
dont think so
is infosys final auto
Nah
It’s OOD stuff
And more practical LC
Medium leetcode and some ood stuff is a good way to prep
ban @wary whale
is there anyway to speed up google resume screen process
if you have an upcoming deadline w/ another company
U can try but they usually tell you to accept the other company’s offer
for number of islands cant i just change the number of each island visited
instead of using an extra array/set
yeah
sure
Yes that is a trick
no matter what tho ur gonna be using space with dfs or bfs
it is contextual tho
call stack or queue
oh yea fax
maybe dont wanna overwrite the data
think of it this way whenever u do a search on the island u want to sink it so u dont count it again
so making the values 0 is "sinking" the island
people live on that island u know
screw them
alr thanks
@half plinth
but i just got the questionnaire, they had an April 18th start date
nyc >> sf
east coast is overrated
THANKS
East coast has public transportations that’s useful
sf has public transportation too 😂
lol
ur bringing up points that could apply to sf as well
east coast public transport isn’t a dumpster fire
Oh wow it wasn’t like that last yr i think although don’t quote me
american public transport is pretty badly organized in the first place
Does Citadel give direct interviews for GHC attendees?
thxxx
interesting
I want to start even earlier
Anyone know min score to get resume screen for databricks on code signal?
does anyone have experience with picking an earlier start date than the earliest start date?
for goog
i've seen 800+ get rejected
Yeah I was just wondering if like 820+ ok resume is even possible
you have to do really well, but i think resume plays a bigger role with them
im not sure if you're memeing or not, but no
databricks isn't full either
@low vale Is palantir oa auto?
I think you can just ask
or recruiter reach out
My friend was able to start later than in the questionnaire
you can ask, but i think everyone has same start date
if you applied with referral + applied early they gave priority and automatically gave karat
oh gotcha
I think google is a bit more lenient with this stuff
yeah, both have to be true though i think, otherwise you gotta do oa
never hurts to ask then
For STEP, do they care if you have experience or do you just have to be sophomore? I have a referral and used on step but worried because I have internships I won’t be considered
oh shit thanks bro
yuh gl king
does anyone know how long I have to take the jpmorgan OA
For those of y’all who got Benchling technical 1, when is ur interview?
for anyone who an amazon intern oa recently, when did you apply?
its full
any one got the actual hackerrank for pathAI. I only got the email from the recruiter saying the hackerrank will come
it’s full
did anyone else think this was a rejection email based off subject
@slow quarry did u hear back from duolingo
carissa fucking said id be hearing back next week
so their stack ranking candiadtes from sep 1 and sep 22
Is someone who has leetcode premium willing to post a pic of the databricks problem list? The discord bot only has 2 listed but apparently the lc premium page has more on there
oh damn
for codesignal, if I click defer on my proctored exam and only want to take my unproctored exam
they still make you take it proctored???
cause I'm tryna take samsara's which is unproctored and defer pinterest's
and it pulls that shit on me
if I decline, will it completely remove that exam or will it just remove it for that test and I can still take it later?
would path AI take canadians?
I was rejected with like 840
Ya it’s A scam
800+ is bar
db has accepted 800+ but resume screena fter
do I need suitcase for onsite interview
like do u guys take suitcases
to onsites like if you fly out
a brief case ???
i am confused
lol how
yo
do u just buy clothes after ur done wearing them?
wheres the PathAI hacckeerrank
like ill pack an outfit for the interview
haven't gotten it either
day 1 of cold emails
no luck
if I submitted my codesignal score to some companies with one email and want to do the hack and reassign that email to a different account, if I delete the email from the old account will it mess up the old codesignal score submissions?
to which companies did you cold email ?
lyft, uber
I will prove everyone wrong by receiving amazon offer in 4 days 
I just put everything in my backpack lol
What companies still do real onsites nowadays?
I think microsoft does
THEY'RE STACK RANKING CANDIDATES FROM SEP 1 AND SEP 22
is it weird that I read this in spongebob's voice
naw would have done someting simila
those who got pinterest oa, did you apply from ripplematch or pinterest website
would I have less chances for landing amazon if i put winter as my preferred season?
would i land a chance at any company if i put hustlers university student under education
theyre comparing ppl with otehr batches and taking the best
how do i put an upcoming internship on my resume
anyone have any samples or what should i put it as
just write incoming
what about in the about section of what i did
You put the team and technologies u will be using
leave it blank or write about what team ur in
Like : working on xx within xx team using ...
it's over

LOL I was their very first final round interview on September 1st. Still havne't heard back even though I did pretty good -_-
I got rejected from literally all of those minus palantir and optiver which hasn't rejected yet

am waiting for someone to do it first
leetcode medium at worst
carissa responded to me she said next week even tho i ahve a deadline tmrw
a fake one 
XD
you did it?
k lemme dm you then pls
next week
@analog stratus yo u were in nexus?
has anyone gotten offer from duolingo though even though they stacking?
that guy probably has insane exp since apple ml is also really hard to hear back from
he wrote that he was at bloomberg, citsec, and airbnb in undergrad
his experience
chilling, kinda crazy to find someone here that shares like 4 servers
lol y
are yall getting nuro sre oa/phone or did the other roles start too
think.....
lol
is it not on levels
do they give housin'
if its IT it prob is
if u dont mind what did you have as ur previous internship?
it says info tech lol
i assume it is
what else would they make u do haha
3500 housing haha
is that enough
u seem to be getting phone/oa from everywhere
lol nah not interested in bank
....
lol
lemme check
ah ok
after applying to goldman and getting ghosted
is it even worth applying to nomura
lol
did they do auto oa?
if it is i wont apply
just resume screen ?
i feel that
@wary whale
even my health insurance company pays more.................................
also did u apply to draftkings?
for intern or ft
did u pass the oa for epic
anybody done the goldman sachs hirevue?
God gdb is the greatest thing known to mankind
does anyone know whether referral would work for meta this year? (since the intern app is open
Does anyone know how well you have to do on the linkedin hackerrank? I got an easy for the first and hard for the second
does meta send confirmation link?
no
im pretty sure codesignal is universal
Yes
Who got goldman hirevuew!
yeah hirevue
number of islands is mad useful like it fucks me up sometimes with adding directions but doing bfs on a matrix using its coords is pretty insane
i have an amazon final tomorrow at 7pm
im shitting my pants
someone please encourage me
and tell me everything will be ok
thanks
amazon finals for internship are basically 90% chacne u get in
Half of prudue CS is here haha
Yes
do u say that because theyre easy or because amazon is lenient?
or both?
i cant really confirm anything obviously from amazons perspective
But i dont know one (1) person who got to the interview stage and got rejected afterwards
I did hear news of waitlisted people this year though.... but it seems to me that amazon interviews are just trying to see if you match up to your OA performance and resume, they already think you are a good candidate
but the oa was so fucking easy
thats why im like
what if it was just "does this guy know how to code" and now they gonna f me up with like some DP problem
i see huh
lol
had friend mess up two sum implementation laugh it off and still get offer
so yea u might be right
@tiny bane u whore
Its practically to see if youre a real person XD
oh and ur here
actually
HAHAHAHAHAH
bruh
I TOLD U
Ur boy got rejected in the spring
I DIDNT REMEMBER
i think u may get quicker help from #programming_help channel
cumming too
to notice the notifications
Spring could be a completely different ballgame
HI PURDUE PETEEEE
but if temp2 is null it should return null from the earlier if statements
OMGGGG
actually nvm nobody answerin questions there
i have multiple if statements up there if both is null return null, if one is null find the other one and return it
make sure if its temp2 thats null or ans_curr thats null
HEEHEE
you could put those two statements on separate lines
wdym
i mean you want to see which variable is null just write them on separate lines and see wehre the error is
you mean like try to print them out and see which is null?
it could be either variable null right
oh its ans_curr that's null
i think when i do ans_curr next i have to create a new listnode
also you are not really doing this problem correctly
ye just realized that i fixed it to temp
wdym
probably some infinite loop
Yeah you shouldnt be creating new listnodes ever in your code
o
but when i dont do that
it gives me null error
youre just maneuvering pointers
for this part... if temp1 is not null then just attach temp1 to the end of the current list... dont do the whole process of adding each node one by one
you need to understand what a linkedlist is really doing here
how would i do that though, you can only add one node at a time for a linked list right?
no, you just set the next pointer of the last in the first list, to the first of the next list
ANYONE
ANYONE going to jpm freshman focus program on oct 4 in nyc????
preferably from boston/providence area
Try doing it in C then
Just did palantir final. I wanna die
actually it doesnt really make difference
felt, although i never made it that far
what happan
lol nothing. Just didn't go tooo good. Dont think ill get an offer. Rip
few people walk out of interviews feeling confident
Thats also true. lol. It is what it is
alright i figured it out
@twilit wharf preciate the help thanks yall
basically .next has to point to an actual pointer

is meta hiring interns?

@wide socket yes their apps are open
can i ask to speed up amazon reuslt if i alr have an offer
lmao
Don't even ask the question. The answer is yes, it's full. Think Amazon is just slow? No, they're full. You work at the drive thru for Mickey D's and found out they just opened burger flipping internships? Full. You think people on cscareers.dev don't already know that? The job market is an all powerful, all encompassing being that knows the very inner workings of your subconscious before you were even born. Your future employer was full decades ago when the market was valuing IBM's expected future headcount based on population growth that would lead to your birth, what age you would start Leetcoding, how many times you would watch Neetcode videos, how many times you have inverted a binary tree. Any company you can think of has already been filled, even the roles you aren't thinking of. You have no original thoughts. Your consciousness is just an illusion, a product of the omniscent rat race. Free will is a myth. The job market sees all, knows all and will be there from the beginning of time until the end of the universe (the market has already filled roles for the heat death of the universe). So please, before you make a post on cscareers.dev asking whether Apple is full or Amazon has stopped hiring, know that it is already full and don't ask such a dumb fucking question again.

Yes
ty ser
what do those dots means
rookies
HAAHAHHAAHAHA
trust only in the force fr
i applied to salesforce in like august and never heard anything should i assume im ghosted
or is everything just taking really long
oh wow
thats so late
thats kinda nice actually
Boys hows the ocient OA
Would y’all renege Amazon for Datadog
all faang don't care about renege
How bonkers

Amazon don’t care if you renege
at least 1k ppl renege amazon every year lmao
Nyc
135k base, 160k RSUs (25/25/25/25), 50k sign on, 5k relo
The only way to up that is nego the relo with counter offfer
If i had that offer that’s what i would try for
I’m numbed by the 200k numbers thrown around 
But yeah that’s good
How much can you nego it by?
And I can nego with mid companies that pay around 180
Yeah i mean all things considered it’s fantastic, the so called mind numbing 200k nums are tough companies with bad wlb or high tc only first year like meta
Or well quant duh but that’s diff tier
Not part of the convo
Kirb u were also at LinkedIn?
No
Oh
Idrc about return offers tho
Like out of Amazon LinkedIn Datadog, what two companies would y’all rather have
If u offered me amazon return 210 vs datadog equal it’s still no brainer
Did jpmorgan already start interviews
LinkedIn also has great food no cap if u want office life as a new grad that’s great
But datadog office life is supposedly also fun
Just preference
I got perfect on their OA but haven't heard from them lol
- Ddog
- LI
- Amazon
Ok I better get the ddog offer then
Also I got a really cool team for LinkedIn
But I might get some front end team for Amazon
Look up linkedin benefits too, they might be better than ddog
Which is not my interest at all
On levels
Can grad in 3 years
School app dev club
Data fellow for nonprofit
Really sht resume
If I wanna coast LinkedIn but I'd choose Datadog > Amazon
Yeah it’s great, I heard ppl will stay a long time at DataDog tho each day (since work isn’t harsh)
Name checks out
I kinda want apple mle as my last internship
Best case scenario li mle -> some swe intern at a ml team -> apple mle
I really really wish I get good team at Amazon or Datadog
No just swe, but on ml team and my manager is a mle
whats riot oa like
If you did palantir karat pls pm me
what one u got rn?
Li zon
ikr
bc i believe in integrity 
does anyone know arrowstreet capitals quant dev process
full
no , i have interview
my boyfriend is a psych major
please check your sexism
whats his number
For the Ramp challenge how many flags did people end up finding?
I got to the md5 hash and trying to decrypt that now
6
Hashcat will be useful for the MD5 flag
im dumb
Okay
I'm just kidding, only playing this for fun. Not gonna be applying to Ramp.
Yeah, UK
How many internships did u do ? And do u have faang on ur resume?
Wow pog
Just applied to the expression of interest in august
How much time you have to complete amazon oa
And why they didn't mention it in the email
Congrats!
Congrats bro
What’s the best way to land an internship
With no prior related work experience
I’m in engineering 😭
For my university first year is a generalized program and you get to specialize second year
I do plan on specializing in software engineering though
Software for the win
W
Check out my resume in posts if you have the time that would be greatly appreciated
Yea unfortunately there’s only one class that involves programming
Which is the generalized engineering class which includes programming, design and materials science
McMaster University
Unfortunately I wasn’t smart enough for computer science 😔
Nah but it’s facts cut off was 97
Now personally I have things I like to do outside of school
mac pog
what program?
Met a couple mac kids at amazon vancouver this past summer
Engineering 1
your degree's called engineering 1?
The first year program is called engineering 1
My degree would be a bachelors of engineering
interesting
well fwiw you don't need to be in CS to break into this industry although it does help
two of my friends from mac this summer were in tron and ee
just very lucky
It's in #resume just search thru my messages there
Aight Ty
dk why juda's saying this when they've got twitter and meta 
So is applying to internships jus a numbers game
yeah there's quite a bit of luck involved esp now for some reason
I'm seeing people with big tech internships not get any interviews - basically worse response rates than when they didn't have those internships
a lot of luck is involved tbh
idt wagons is having trouble
me getting amazon was extremely lucky
I swear he don’t even apply people reach out to him 😂
well I don't have goog on my resume yet, but I was expecting my response rate to be much higher
yes
goated with the sauce
also I haven't heard back from a single company from waterloo's internal job board 
Damn
doordash is recruiting at my school next week
so yeah it's rough, dracos was talking about how his rate's worse this year too
Btw what does OA mean
online assessment
Ah
companies send online assessments
Yea
yeah it should be fine by then
bruh
people been getting google phones my man
I applied to RBC last year cuz apparently their internships are open to high schoolers I was lied to
some of them are
Interesting
anyways it looks like companies just don't have enough head count this year (2023) in general
recession moment
how do i know how much days I have to do amzn oa, they didnt mention it on the email...
Did you take Palantir in the end?
I now have a decision between Optiver or Palantir
Palantir invited me to NYC For a day, with a deadline to accept quite soon, so I accepted it but now have the Optiver offer
so idk if a day in NYC is a lead onto the offer
or what I should even say to both companies
inner demon of me wants to negotiate a bit
I’ll do Optiver if you are interested in the space
Harder to break in and you can always do palantir new grad
I kinda prefer NYC but Optiver over pal
One thing I'm scared of though
The return offer rates for Optiver seemed low
Why only Amsterdam? Are u intl?
UK
Thought it would give me more chance applying for Amsterdam for Optiver as I am in the UK
I feel Optiver has cooler problems to solve.. palantir sounds to me like “basic” software problems. Like for me personally leveraging technology to get ahead of competition in the finance field sounds cool as fuck
I would personally accept Optiver but would ask gracefully if they would throw in a sign on bonus to sweeten the deal
I agree, though in fairness Palantir can go pretty crazy too, like helping Ferrari etc
I mean I took it but I’m not going
Fr?
I know but Ferrari hasn’t won any race in recent time 😂🥲
For me Akuna > Palantir > Databricks
Palantir renege you gonna be drone strike'd
Out of the offers I have rn
I don't want to burn bridges
Haaaha @junior hull if you don’t take Optiver just tell the recruiter to offer me the position with 3/4 of the salary
Haha
Optiver being Amsterdam’s a major deal breaker tho
The salary has grown crazily over past 3 years if you look on levels
NYC >>>>
2x salary though
I’d still much rather live in nyc lol
Fair
Are you fdse at palantir?
If you get a cool project it might be the most fun you have tbh
Imagine getting to go to Ferrari hq in Italy for 6 months so cool
You could ask palantir to change dates after Optiver
They could only offer me swe bc I’m not a us citizen 
I heard they are flexible
reeee http2 multiplexing is >:(
I mean Amsterdam is really cool place and you could use the weekends to explore major European cities. Paris/London/den Haag/…
Sure but i can do that during my vacations as well
Yes
Exactly
Anyones
Anyone have any advice in how to find Ramp flags? What are you supposed to do with the wikipedia page they give you?
Haha cause I am student as well
Is code signal just rng with the questions
Bc I’ve gotten some questions I thought were kinda ridiculous
yup
I didn’t realize I could retake it should I just retake it as much as possible and use my highest score
idk I think it says you can but I haven’t actually done it
why palantir > databricks?
i was thinking akuna >= databricks > palantir
The gap between palantir and db is v close
databricks tc fat tho 
ah
Vexor u hear back from LinkedIn yet?
imagine wagons (nyc simp)
FELLOW NYC SIMP
nyc/seattle simp
i am a dedicated seattle hater
:((((
who
your mother
*you're
im excited for seattle
nyc is better than seattle imo
ive been to nyc before but i wanna experience seattle
if you have the option
ive never been west
yeah both are solid cities
Don’t go unless it’s the summer
oh yeah im doin amazon summer
It’s not awful it’s just rainy
im from florida ik bad weather
the rain in fl is 10x worse than seattle ive been told
Florida man 
seattle rain is more of mist lmao
Florida man 
Wtf after final?
at least what my seattle friends have told me
How long did you wait after recruiter phone
yeah same for me
"Just wait nerd" was what they said
My recruiter said I’d hear back soon 
How long after final did you hear back?
Oh wow
im not droppin my timeline tho
you're cracked so you'll probably go through team matching pretty fast
It’s been 2 weeks 
Idk about ducc but my recruiter was Lynnsey
The one who did recruiter phone?
yeah
Yeah same
Rip
Aight I’ll email on Monday
hmm if I don't get imc that kinda throws a wrench in my plans
did anyone get to ramp?
Did anyone get a coding round for PLTR after the onsites lol
ur already stacked 🙄
that's what I thought I knew
It’s been a month since they got back to me lol
My recruiter just told me it is a coding round lol
they got back to you about final after a month?
but that signing bonus 
i did the karat and then a recruiter call and then the onsites now I got a one hour interview he said coding (Y)
For a month
did you ping them in the meantime?
with offer deadlines etc?
doin it for da bag
How's the McKinsey oa
Yep
nah i got rejected a week ago lol
after phone?
do yall put "incoming at x for term y" on ur resume even if you're applying for the same term @ other companies
or is that a red flag lmao
i need that incoming @ amazon ATS buff 
I do this for amazon
Just omit the term
👍
LOL true ill try that
"any competing offers" "yea, amazon" 🤔
yea ik ik but I also do wonder abt the optics of a company knowing you're reneging another for them
yeah not a good look
if you do it with another company whats to stop you from doing it with the new one?
also does putting "incoming at x" really help at all? I might even think it'd hinder you, since most companies want to convert their interns so if they know you're already interning at another place, there's less chance of conversion
It helps
incoming is good if ur applying for like next year or a different term
but dont do it for same term
cuz then its useless, cuz ur essentially saying ur gonna drop them for a new company
If you’re gonna do it for the same term just omit the start date
i know someone who put incoming at amazon in the summer and used it to apply to quants and shit during the summer itself tho, so it got past resume screen
i already updated my linkedin for incoming at amazon
but the quant terms were a year after
nice
but im still applying to meta google and etc for next summer 😔
congrats
im literally dying from nerves
i have my amazon interview on monday
and i just dont know what to expect or do
honestly just know that the interviewer doesn't wanna be there
so nonchalantness is good
That’s what I did
yea but if i get rejected from amazon, i basically lost the only chance at an offer this season
u renege slack?
Nah I reneged last year
juster too goated
i hate your bio btw
it made me cringe
opened it in class and everything
Docusign
would not recommend
oh nice
Just don’t open peoples bios
skill issue
nope, 1 way video
Nosy mf
open at home
i should be paying attention in this lecture about regular expressions
but i really dont wanna pay attention rn
no but if ur gonna not accept it, dont put on ur resume
Yeah you can cold email and leverage that tho
i hope to god i never have to touch regex
its part of computation theory
automata work?
when u learn abt automata and that
oh fuck im in theory of comp rn
yeah its part of it
fun course
god dammit
im learning systems software rn
incoming @ amazon didn't help me at all when I was applying last year 
im learning about turing machines n shit
current/past exp >>> incoming
turing machines are interesting
how likely are the tagged amazon interview questions to come up in an actual interview?
grad year diff eh
Rng
Last year I got tagged this year I didn’t
rng, but I got tagged last year
both my amzn questions werent tagged
Mid interview? 🤨
