[merry verge]

and my answers werent super clear

he asked a lot of follow up questions

[maiden current]

tbh i don't see them rejecting anyone after that virtual onsite

[limpid steeple]

I have applied to every possible company xD

[low vale]

was the technical portion decomp?

[merry verge]

mine was lc

if ur not a goon like me the HM is prob easy

[low vale]

they do reject quite a few people after onsite

[merry verge]

im just a social dumbass lol

[limpid steeple]

Yeah, that is "there" process

[low vale]

lc med/easy ?

[maiden current]

i mean like if you pass the onsite

[merry verge]

easy-med i think

[low vale]

okay lets go

just gotta practice not stuttering

and tripping over my own stories

[merry verge]

i still managed to like

communicate it in the end

but it was kinda meh

i solved the technical

[low vale]

yeah i feel that

[merry verge]

had some mistakes

but we worked on it together

[low vale]

i'm similar with behaviorals

[merry verge]

and got to a solution he was looking for i guess

uh

he told me i'll hear back by monday or tuesday

so im not sure if thats a good or bad thing lol

as in like

does he already know hes gonna reject me

so ill hear back on monday

[low vale]

wait did you take it today?

[merry verge]

yeah i did my HM at 6 pm lol

[maiden current]

prob good if you gave the interview on a Friday

[low vale]

goddamn thats a quick responses

[maiden current]

that's quick turnaround

[merry verge]

wait what, no he said that at the end of the call

[low vale]

hopefully i get my offer/reject by next friday then

[merry verge]

if ur talking about my on sites, i did it on a thursday

heard back after 3 ish hours

[low vale]

i was talking about hm

[merry verge]

did u do ur HM too?

[low vale]

no i have mine on tuesday

[merry verge]

oh gotcha

good luck

[low vale]

ty

[merry verge]

honestly the biggest like hindrance is ur own mental imo lol

the HM shouldnt be bad

[maiden current]

how quickly did u hear back after virtual onsite

[low vale]

1 day i think

lemme check

[maiden current]

🙏

[merry verge]

im just praying that he wants to hire me and that's why ill hear back on monday lol

but chances are he doesnt want me and he knows hes gonna reject XD

[half plinth]

does salesforce usually ask tagged

[maiden current]

trust they preparing the offer letter

[low vale]

[merry verge]

[maiden current]

[merry verge]

[merry verge]

lmao i just went to the gym

now what tf do i do

[untold rapids]

got first question and coded up but couldnt finish debugging the second question for Intuit Karat live interview, anyone know my chances of moving on?

[delicate arch]

does anyone know where can I find amazon SDE intern problems?

[merry verge]

tagged maybe?

[delicate arch]

for many places tagged is new grad and other stuff

those problems are like wayyyy harder than intern problems

i have final round so im scared

[jaunty cove]

prepare w the harder questions then the real one will be easy

[delicate arch]

that's ideal

but ive been so busy doing school work that ive neglected the LC grind

i have 2 weeks to prep so i gotta make the most out of it

We transferred your application from Software Engineering: Intern Opportunities for University Students, United States (1388845) to this position number. This is for internal process reasons only.

[safe minnow]

[half plinth]

i cannot solve a hard for shit

[sinful locust]

me neither

[north portal]

me rn:
3 days till amazon final, is it even possible to feel prepared for this?

[sinful locust]

yo what if recruiter comes back and says no coding section for security intern
that'd be goated
rn my dataset is 2 people: 1 asked leetcode, 1 no coding at all

[sinful locust]

gl

[north portal]

thanks u too

also no coding is banger

fidelity recruiter asked no coding last year for me

[frail moth]

bruh what happened to netflix internships... they said it would release late august...

[hardy patrol]

full

[north portal]

all three of last years interns got a return offer

so they just arent opening it

[devout jewel]

last year came out in nov

[sinful locust]

@earnest hatch

[earnest hatch]

yes?

[half plinth]

is meta gca this yr

wat

[delicate arch]

i might legit have the last amazon final round spot

unless it's all a lie and amazon isnt done hiring

[half plinth]

when is it

[static spindle]

??? why do you think amazon is done

[delicate arch]

october 7

[delicate arch]

idk thats what ppl are saying here and ppl that were accepted that ik irl

[static spindle]

people here are bsing

they've slowed down but its highly likely that they're still gonna keep going

[delicate arch]

hopefully lol

[soft basin]

😂 mf think they special or somethin

[delicate arch]

ppl also def gonna reneg when someone better gives an offer

[static spindle]

yes

[delicate arch]

https://tenor.com/view/sonic-floss-sonic-flossing-sonic-the-hedgehog-movie-gif-16310252

[static spindle]

the only reason why people here say its full is either because they're meming bc cap1 is full or because they're salty that amazon ghosted them

[delicate arch]

cap1 is full?

[static spindle]

yup

[soft basin]

amazon is full

c1 is also full

[static spindle]

nvm what I meant to say is

amazon is full

[delicate arch]

that's what im sayin

[soft basin]

🤣

[delicate arch]

meta is full before opening

[static spindle]

netflix is also full

[soft basin]

luckily i got amazon before they became full

[static spindle]

if i dont get an offer in 3 days im blaming it on @soft basin being too big and filling amazon up

[half plinth]

c1 is full

?

or they arent giving more interviews

[static spindle]

yes, unironically

[half plinth]

so they are not giving out more offers?

[soft basin]

c1 is on hold rn

[static spindle]

not giving more interviews bc they are full/too much scheduled

[half plinth]

so if u havre an interviw

then ur fine

right

[static spindle]

no they are, if youre in the process youre good

[soft basin]

i rejected my c1 offer so that opened up a spot for someone

[half plinth]

ok

thank god

[delicate arch]

what was powerday like

[soft basin]

i forgot

[delicate arch]

4 hours is so fucking long

[soft basin]

i did it high as fuck

[delicate arch]

hahahaha

[static spindle]

i think they have, they used to give offers faster after final

[delicate arch]

🤣

[static spindle]

also the 2nd round of interview bs is happening

[soft basin]

amazon actually had some layoffs recently tho

[soft basin]

i got mine a day after my final

[delicate arch]

recession over?

[static spindle]

exactly, i've been waiting for 10 days 😢

and so have others who interviewed with me

[soft basin]

i think its more of the fact that amazon sp recruiters are probs working ot rn

[delicate arch]

no the OAs are closed im ps

[static spindle]

ot?? that doesn't sound very amazon of you

we prefer calling it customer obsession

[delicate arch]

hahah

thats wat we talking about lil bro

[static spindle]

its highkey annoying as hell

[soft basin]

amazon is slow bc of how much the recruiters have to deal with right now

amazon also layed off a good amount of them

[delicate arch]

amazon legit took like a month to even get back to me

[static spindle]

yeah ik, regardless the "x is full" thing is way overdone. Not referring to yall in particular

[soft basin]

even back in mid august they scheduled my interview beyond my requested dates

[void sinew]

Anyone have any tips for Ramp flag thingy?

[soft basin]

i had my amazon and c1 interview the same week lol

[delicate arch]

c1 scheduled my interview 2.5 months in the future

i was like what if i have a midterm ??

[static spindle]

all my homies hate c1

[soft basin]

emailing this to the recruiter rn

blacklisted

[vernal plover]

recession full

[static spindle]

not unless i blacklist them first

applied to c1 aug 4th they weren't competent enough to schedule final until like sept 10th

[delicate arch]

that's not even bad

[static spindle]

no you're misunderstanding

[muted summit]

i applied in august and my final got booked for oct 21st

[static spindle]

they didn't send the email to schedule a final until sept 10th

and then earliest final spot was in december

[soft basin]

i applied for them in june

[muted summit]

i deadass forgot about the c1 final

[soft basin]

i had system design for my c1 case

[delicate arch]

i applied aug and im nov 1 st 😭

[static spindle]

applied with 2 referrals, 780 codesignal, big bank experience and got waitlisted

[muted summit]

[delicate arch]

waitlisted?

u trollin?

[soft basin]

yeah c1 is waitlisting now

for ppl who passed the oa which is a low ass bar

[delicate arch]

hahahahah

[static spindle]

nope. I emailed the recruiter my available times, she ghosted me for 2 weeks, and then said oops we're full, waitlist time

[muted summit]

bruh when the time comes am i even gonna get to do the interview LMAOO

i have other interviews

but id still wanna get c1 just because

[delicate arch]

i need to get c1 cuz a literal bum that ik from my school got it

so if i dont get it, im the bum

[muted summit]

dont think of it like that bro

[static spindle]

c1 set their bar stupid low

[delicate arch]

idk toxicity breeds drive or smth

[muted summit]

if it makes u better at interviewing tho

whatever works out LMAOO

[delicate arch]

XD

[safe minnow]

Eh, it might work for the short term

[glacial lance]

They're waitlisting for interviews?

So like what if you have a powerday

[static spindle]

ur good then

[glacial lance]

I should've applied earlier

I'm stoopid

[sinful locust]

will FAANG ever reopen

ur an AI

@static spindle sushi is an AI

@pseudo shoal told me

[safe minnow]

Facts

[sinful locust]

lol

[hardy patrol]

i wonder what his screen looks like with 15 < people blocked

man i only got one interview rn the rest im just waiting for a response

i have a backup offer anyway but i dont want to be stuck making 35/hour again

[pseudo shoal]

stop saying this unfunny ass joke

[sinful locust]

Nope 😹

[night apex]

[static spindle]

i got rejected 8 hours after video lol

shut

[night apex]

@crisp berry wdym?

@static spindle oh damn

did u mess it up or think you did well?

[static spindle]

i think i did okay, definitely not great though

[night apex]

damn ok thats tuff

[static spindle]

i think they also just apply a harder resume screen after video

[night apex]

ive just been ghosted for like 3 weeks

[golden tusk]

Ppl are ghosted after hr phone lol

[sinful locust]

For this role theres no oa

[autumn roost]

This position is located in our Corporate office in City, State. How would you make working at this location work over the summer?
Is this question just asking if you would be able to move to their office for their summer? I am not the best with english so i dont really understand

i have no idea lol im glad im not the only one thats confused

[sinful locust]

will reaching out to recruiters help

given hiring freeze

really

hm how so

bruh

stop krishna

for what

which companies tho

STOP

no

[autumn roost]

@honest spire is this a good response?
I would be able to relocate to the corporate office at the end of my spring semester for the duration of the internship.

[sinful locust]

stop

[autumn roost]

this is a question on the application. who should i contact to ask about it

do you know how i can find a recruiter? Its a very small company

[golden tusk]

Thanks!

[sinful locust]

do

dog

[golden tusk]

Decent chance if it’s fall, summer is a toss up

[sinful locust]

Rust macros as insane wtf

[hollow field]

Do they cover housing? If so just say I will be available to relocate

If not up to you

[hardy patrol]

All this means is if you don't have an interview scheduled, you're going to be put on a waitlist and if an interview spot opens up, you'll be scheduled for an interview. Your placement on the waitlist is decided using your codesignal score. For those of us who have had our interview scheduled, those are still on.

got 675 on gca im toast

[hollow field]

For c1?

C1 doesn’t care tbh

If u pass their min score it’s just resume after that for final

Wait nvm just read the text lol my b

[random apex]

@wet summit's status is killing me

[static spindle]

i expected people who applied 2 weeks after me and took a shit mid OA to not get their finals scheduled before me

i do genuinely think i got cucked by rng though

[stable cape]

you cant check the status of your google application right?

[slow quarry]

brother u have amazon swe

just learn as much as u can + ride the recession out in AWS and ull have recruiters begging for u later on

[stable cape]

[mystic depot]

https://tenor.com/view/dies-cat-dead-died-gif-13827091

[thorn nimbus]

Amazon has made people wait 2-3 months for OAs before

2-3 weeks for interview is normal

[mystic depot]

[mystic depot]

okay then thanks for the info i guess i will just wait it out, gl with the interview

[thorn nimbus]

Yepp dw about it if u did good on work assessments survey too then u will get it in couple weeks (Amazon hires in batches it’s not completely rolling)

Thank u!

[midnight grove]

[frigid gate]

hmmm I fill the interview availability last Sunday and they haven't schedule any until today , should I follow up their mail ?

*amz sde

[quaint bolt]

If IMC works out: msft/goog winter -> IMC summer
Else: msft (or maybe meta) winter -> goog summer

[midnight grove]

msft does winter?

[quaint bolt]

If Meta gets back to me

[quaint bolt]

For my school at least yeah

no u

[woeful lynx]

Imagine getting at least one offer 🥲🥲🥲

[livid atlas]

What company is IMC? I’m still learning the acronyms

[hallow scroll]

imc trading

[sinful locust]

Where were you before amazon?

[quaint bolt]

You will dw

I’m stopping after IMC

[quaint bolt]

A Canadian unicorn and 2 no names

google winter is not guaranteed, summer’s way more likely but still not guaranteed and I want a Canadian ng offer so going msft/Meta -> goog would maximize my chances

[midnight grove]

@quaint bolt did u already accept those offers or what r the deadlines to accept them

[quaint bolt]

I accepted akuna and palantir but I’m gonna renege

as soon as msft answers some qs I have and I move goog to summer

so like next week

[sinful locust]

[jade epoch]

Atlassian or scale ai?

[sinful locust]

[quaint bolt]

atlassian kinda boring

[quaint bolt]

[low vale]

It works

I got that too

But then a few minutes later the fact that I got referred showed up

Applications

In career center

[slow veldt]

Did you get referred post application submission?

[low vale]

Yeah that's the right place

I think it took under half an hour

I checked back after half an hour

So idk how long exactly

I used referral

After it showed up I did it manually

Idk if that was the move

Lol

[past comet]

for me it showed directly

asked my referred to give me referral

i got email saying someone referred me and I created a profile in their careers site

[wooden shard]

Any one done Goldman Sachs hirevue?

[twilit wharf]

yes

[wooden shard]

[hardy patrol]

anybody do pinterest oa how hard was it

[past comet]

7 flags

oo in the letter they told 7 flags

[white urchin]

Codesignal gca

[hardy patrol]

are gca practice questions as easy as the companies cause ill be alright if so

gca rng is generous

[past comet]

oh fck, nvm

I read it wrong

[jaunty cove]

bc i didnt have the resources to go to a target school so recruiters think im dumb😂😂

education system moment

[hardy patrol]

wild

[tall kernel]

are we supposed to look for flags on the wikipedia page for this ramp ctf

[hardy patrol]

we can use the bottom up dp for this the same we did for coin exchange right https://leetcode.com/problems/combination-sum/

[sinful locust]

yall terminally on discord

smh

[sinful locust]

lol

[jaunty cove]

no you have to return the combinationsp

[hardy patrol]

wack alright

[sinful locust]

nah

[jaunty cove]

[sinful locust]

linear algebra is sexy man

it is actually hot 🥵

[jaunty cove]

read axler

[sinful locust]

fav math subject hands down

[jaunty cove]

he makes it intuitive

relatively

[past comet]

I reached to a random person on linkedin lol

And they gace

[jaunty cove]

no way it matters

maybe it matters if you know the person really well

[warped dagger]

ssi asks: ban goku

[past comet]

Nope

[hardy patrol]

is de shaw hrt

[tall kernel]

do u really want a list lol

[jaunty cove]

i think its a short list

[hardy patrol]

i saw their salary so im expecting the process to be retarded hard

[jaunty cove]

is it de shaw or drw who asks you to write about one of your project

[tall kernel]

my response rate with referral is super high compared to non referra;

[jaunty cove]

i refuse to believe companies care if a random person refers an intern

that they dont know

[tall kernel]

tuff

[jaunty cove]

thats what u get for haivng the same name

[safe minnow]

Wtf

[past comet]

Bruggg

[sinful locust]

im actually stressing

[safe minnow]

y

[jaunty cove]

woah

[jaunty cove]

character arc

[low vale]

stressing about what?

[sinful locust]

microsoft security intern

1st guy: i had no leetcode or coding
2nd: i had easy medium - sometimes they don't ask coding
3rd: i had easy medium hard

do i need to leetcode?

[jaunty cove]

[sinful locust]

why the fuck the recruiter went out of office?

immediately after emailing

[low vale]

nah probably not, i got my security internship without lc

[jaunty cove]

why do i want to work at imc

plz help

[sinful locust]

depends on company

[safe minnow]

@sinful locust what changed from never doing lc

[sinful locust]

microsoft's OS security team

[jaunty cove]

thats not good neough

no

[safe minnow]

Character development arc

[sinful locust]

do i wait for recruiter to come back?
who tf sends the vaguest email then immediately goes offline

i asked if they have coding

[low vale]

its the fucking weekend

why would they respond now

[sinful locust]

i asked yesterday

2 min after they sent the email

[jaunty cove]

maybe they had a family emergency

[sinful locust]

and it said out of office

same thing last year

[sinful locust]

if they did how did they email me
aint no way they had emergency 0.1 seconds after emailing me

it looks like 50/50 they ask leetcode

[safe minnow]

Doesn't Microsoft outsource their interviews?

So it makes sense that it's a massive coinflip if they do

[sinful locust]

i already fumbled easiest stripe interview

now msft too??

😭

[jaunty cove]

noo stripe

[sinful locust]

i cant code under pressure

i failed 3sum at meta

[jaunty cove]

what was your solution

😦

[sinful locust]

idk O(n^2)

2sum with hashmap then loop

idk the pointer technique

[jaunty cove]

thats not bad tho

thats whack they failed u

[sinful locust]

intern

swe

yes
i also failed the other time they ask check palindrome

i used lambdas and the interview was so confused

[jaunty cove]

lmao

[sinful locust]

i solved it but not the leetcode way

under pressure i can't solve it unless i memorized

[jaunty cove]

yeah its not rly looking for the brightest minds if you only pass people who solve it the way you want them to

[sinful locust]

i realize its bc the followup required you to do it a certain way

she was like "can you do it in place"

but python strings are immutable 💀

[jaunty cove]

whack

[sinful locust]

yes

[jaunty cove]

i dont understand why

[sinful locust]

you have to make a new one

[jaunty cove]

i always just split it into a char array so i dont have to deal with pythons bull shit

[sinful locust]

yes

[jaunty cove]

thats why its expensive

[sinful locust]

pythons garbage collection is hella expensive

[shell abyss]

aren't java strings immutable too

[jaunty cove]

c++ you get a buffer overflow and you die

[stable cape]

@brittle stone I saw you got Boeing reject. Did you get an OA before, or was it resume reject?

[muted summit]

wait is that why in java you need to do string builder or else ur code runs slow af

[sinful locust]

or hacked

[jaunty cove]

same thing

[safe minnow]

In Python you should convert strings to char arrays if you’re planning on manipulating them a lot

Yeah

[stable cape]

@craggy barn Hey, I saw you got the Boeing OA. What was it like?

[jaunty cove]

why dont you run the test cases

[sinful locust]

yeah i did that and the interviewer didn't like it
bc on leetcode for the solution you use indexing without making any list or anything

[jaunty cove]

lmfao

yes

[muted summit]

why learn array dp when lru cache exists 🙂

[jaunty cove]

i got a few problems with memory limit exceeded on @cache

[soft basin]

yall should try rosalind

its a good algo practice platform

[safe minnow]

Yeah if I was gonna do that in the interview I’d make sure that the interviewer knew the properties I’m using

[muted summit]

yea same actually or it was like max depth reached

you can probably do lru cache i interviews and they wont care right

[jaunty cove]

https://rosalind.info/problems/locations/

this?

[soft basin]

bro manifesting google but cant even get teh oa

[soft basin]

yeah

[jaunty cove]

one guy got asked to solve it bottom up

[soft basin]

its bioinformatics algos

[jaunty cove]

the dp problem

[muted summit]

damn

[jaunty cove]

whats the motivation for learning this

[sinful locust]

😭

[soft basin]

string algos

[sinful locust]

terminally online @jaunty cove

on discord

[soft basin]

did u switch from never doing leetcode?

[jaunty cove]

dont be rude

[sinful locust]

maybe

[soft basin]

one of the problems is literally teh hamming weight problem if u know that one

[jaunty cove]

yea

wow

[sinful locust]

my college has a CS/Bio major so a lot of our intro classes asked things like dp on DNA

[jaunty cove]

leetcode for biologists

[soft basin]

i just took a class on bioinformatics

normally its a grad class for my school tho

[sinful locust]

honestly my college has more CS/Bio than Bio 💀

50% cs, 40% engineering, 10% other majors

[jaunty cove]

thats kind fo cool

[soft basin]

my school has psych as the most common major

[safe minnow]

Wtf

[craggy barn]

5 behaviorals and a couple "games"

[soft basin]

computer science and engineering are in teh same dept tho

[jaunty cove]

ours is bioology bc of marine biology

[jaunty cove]

isnt that usually how it is or nah

[soft basin]

is ur school near the coast by any chance?

[sinful locust]

everyone is FAANG tbh

[jaunty cove]

ucsb

[jaunty cove]

we have a beach on our campus so yea

[raven saddle]

Hi guys, does codesignal automatically send my scores to the company after I finish it?

[safe minnow]

The English majors too?

[soft basin]

never heard of ur school but yeah marine biology schools typically are near teh beach

[soft basin]

for observation of sea animals and all that

[sinful locust]

i met amazon interns from there
they also have good security research

[jaunty cove]

really

amazon likes our school i think idk why

[soft basin]

my school has mediocre research but it has a rlly good programming team

[jaunty cove]

i want to make a team but im gonna graduate b4 i can make it

[soft basin]

yeah i wish i did my programming team freshman yr

[jaunty cove]

[stable cape]

ahh ok, Did you get past it? Any reply?

[sinful locust]

cache porcupine esophogaus

didn't predict that did you

[jaunty cove]

goku u gotta think about the problem more

if u dont know why the answer to the test case is 12

idk

is it

your mom

goku explain to me

what the answer is

and why

to the case you have

profit = [4, 4, 7, 1]
weight = [5, 2, 3, 1]
capacity = 8

no

you can get more

why do you think its 12

did you watch the video

the one i sent you

well you are asking us to tell you the solution

which is worse than watching a video explaining the solution

your mom

0/1 knapsack isnt on leetcode 🤓

[sinful locust]

?

[jaunty cove]

?

your mom

[warped dagger]

Hyena asks: is goku a treesh?

[craggy barn]

Nah been ghosted

[jaunty cove]

bc its a better solution

its not necessarily harder

[sinful locust]

msft is still under $50/hr

@rustic topaz why

do you?

Nah you?

amazon propel $42/hr -> uber $50/hr -> nuro $70/hr

im manifesting

69

high TC -> high competition

amazon propel $42/hr -> uber $50/hr -> _ X
fill in the blank

nvidia?

ghosted

[edgy grail]

has anyone done pinterest or mastercard technical?

[sinful locust]

the nuro role i want isn't open

[edgy grail]

i did my first technical with c1 this summer and now i have 3 more technicals

i am scared

[sinful locust]

atlassian is only 50 😭

[gritty radish]

what

[soft basin]

dont go for a masters unless its ml

masters wont help much with internships unless ur goin for ml as well

[sinful locust]

yes
last summer i hung out with amzn people a ton in seattle
if you get masters in ML TC goes way up

yes

you can get a masters in ML so you can help amazon recommend products better

and target ads better

same with google
you'll go on ads team

[soft basin]

if they give me ft return offer fuck yeah i’d work there

just so i can also avoid the long string of interviews

[sinful locust]

i'd go if its security eng no oncall

[soft basin]

algo dev is mathematics im pretty sure

[sinful locust]

sure

its easy just get a PHD from MIT

[hollow sorrel]

Quant dev is lot of math too no?

[soft basin]

yes

[jaunty cove]

same

[sinful locust]

for PHD?

[jaunty cove]

what happened to citadel

[sinful locust]

i thought you wanted to be algo dev

[jaunty cove]

how you gonna get citadel without doing math

[sinful locust]

then forget the milly

[low vale]

Pan?

[jaunty cove]

you need to be good at math

anyway

[low vale]

That doesn't help lmao

Who's frying pan?

[sinful locust]

by good - winning contests and doing grad school at top 10 math university like MIT

[low vale]

Oh how'd he get into cit?

🤔

[jaunty cove]

no i mean for swe they still want peopel who are good at math

what problem is that

[low vale]

Then why you copying ehat he did?

[sinful locust]

https://tenor.com/view/skill-issue-gif-19411985

[jaunty cove]

💀

[hollow sorrel]

How can you hard code test cases

[jaunty cove]

i did that yesterday and it sucked

[sinful locust]

if else

[hollow sorrel]

I mean how do you know what inputs are failing

[low vale]

What did he do to get a cit interview?

[sinful locust]

print

[jaunty cove]

they dont test it directly but if your bad at math its hard to solve a bunch of leetcode questions in interviews

[sinful locust]

reasons to work for quant:

TC

[jaunty cove]

gambling addiction

[sinful locust]

when will you have time to gamble

[low vale]

🤔

[jaunty cove]

while trading

[low vale]

P sure meta is enough

[low vale]

Friend got cit phone with amz

Yeah

But he still a sophomore

[uneven sand]

there’s a lot of people that go from amazon to citadel

[sinful locust]

how to get cit phone: just go to career fair and hand them your resume

[uneven sand]

no

[jaunty cove]

list them all

[low vale]

Goku why you even care for this year? Should you be aiming for cit next year?

[jaunty cove]

yes

[sinful locust]

yes

higher than mine

[low vale]

So why you talking right now idgi

[jaunty cove]

thats uncomfortable

[sinful locust]

bruh jane street ghosted when my gpa went down

[low vale]

I don't get it

[slow veldt]

[jaunty cove]

yeah its just annoying

[sinful locust]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-punch-human-gif-25444779

[jaunty cove]

literally code what it says

[sinful locust]

to get quant phone just go to career fair

https://tenor.com/view/mujikcboro-seriymujik-gif-24361533

Have you tried just getting good?

Nah krish

[sinful locust]

[low vale]

[sinful locust]

ppl at my college go to citadel all the time
not that hard

[jaunty cove]

if you transfer to uc berkeley then you go to uc berkeley

[sinful locust]

https://tenor.com/view/troll-pilled-gif-19289988

[low vale]

Cit is supposedly one of the more rng places

[sinful locust]

same with hrt

[jaunty cove]

no

[sinful locust]

and jane street

same as amazon pretty much

[jaunty cove]

citadel

[sinful locust]

2 sigma

[soft mist]

[low vale]

Its a top tier firm, but difficulty to get in is variable

[sinful locust]

What company is the FAANG of amazon?

[low vale]

Aws

TWitch

[sinful locust]

quant is discussed here every day on god

[hardy patrol]

what company is the amazon of amazon

[jaunty cove]

"yeah citadel is kind of mid"

[low vale]

That's like saying faang is discussed here every day

[sinful locust]

the amount of people talking about quant increases number of people who apply -> increases talk -> increase competition

[sinful locust]

quant is discussed more than FAANG

[jaunty cove]

worst take

[sinful locust]

same

stfu about quant

christ

[jaunty cove]

quant quant quantquant quant quantquant quant quantquant quant quantamazon amazon

[low vale]

Quant quant quant quant

Not really

My school has a few good companies occasionally like datadog

[soft basin]

backtracking

[low vale]

I don't go to career fairs tho, feel like it's useless

[soft basin]

i think for sudoku solver backtracking is the optimal

[sinful locust]

no amazon either 💀

[soft basin]

but still not very efficient

[jaunty cove]

the biggest problem is going to be dealing with 2d arrays in C

[sinful locust]

amazon too prestigious

[jaunty cove]

💀

[low vale]

My algos class is just math and it's pain
