[slow quarry]

naw bro

hubspot is chill

as FUCK

[echo lynx]

Ah ok ok

[fervent flax]

my amazon team

was chill af

[sinful locust]

yoo wassup

[slow quarry]

u could be shafted anytime at amazon

[fervent flax]

but also I know some peeps who were psuedo chill

[sinful locust]

amazon can suck it

[slow quarry]

if u want to guarantee good wlb and culture go hubspot

[fervent flax]

but its internship

[slow quarry]

this isnt even debarteable

[violet kelp]

damnit, they're just ghosting me after the OA now🥲

[sinful locust]

hows rippling

[slow quarry]

and does he want to work at a potential sweatshop with more pay or a good culture but less pay?

its all ur preferences

[fervent flax]

eh tbh

I could've been put on a shit team at hubspot

too

you never know

[golden root]

But in the context of an internship Amazon offers far more career growth which is low key the whole point of internships

[slow quarry]

ur even allowed to choose ur team at hubspot

[slow quarry]

the goal of an internship is to get the FT offer (usually). does he want to be at Hubspot or Amz for FT is the q he should ask

[golden root]

Not necessarily, he could use Amazon for different new grad company offers and it opens far more doors

[slow quarry]

and look at the ng market now

[golden root]

Irrelevant to my point, we’re in a recession that’s unrelated

[slow quarry]

still if u want good wlb and culture hubspot is an easy pick

im speaking with no bias on both ive reneged hubspot for a higher paying sweatshop

[fervent flax]

😂

[tawny nimbus]

would u guys take cap1 or amazon

[jaunty cove]

gap

[hollow field]

Amazon

opens more doors

[slow veldt]

on that same note, if one is early in their uni stretch and given amazon vs hubspot offers

[fervent flax]

amazon No Doubt

[slow veldt]

i guess amazon would be optimal since they're not gunning for new grad returns?

[fervent flax]

even if they are gunning for new grad returns, the return rate is pretty high as long as you remotely competent

[slow veldt]

gotcha makes sense

whats the perspective on ramp v amazon in the same scenario

[fervent flax]

don't know enough about ramp to give an accurate statement

[hollow field]

Ramp vs Amazon u might need to do more research on

[golden root]

Ramp is obviously better but in the eyes of your average tech recruiter Amazon will be seen as better probably

[slow veldt]

yeaa thats the thing

[jaunty cove]

but ramp ctf

qed

[slow veldt]

another factor to consider is that im in canada 💀 so i was wondering if a mid-high tier US coop would be more attractive than, say, amzn canada

or does it not really matter

im fiending for a visa dawg

[fervent flax]

hmm

ok that changes things

if you need sponsership

[versed kestrel]

@slow veldt did you get thru ramp's res screen?

[fervent flax]

find something in the states

[slow veldt]

no rejection no response, jus weighing out conceptuals to see if its worth pursuing if i do hear back

or to even put any more effort into the summer grind

[fervent flax]

summer grind never ends Lol

[slow quarry]

ok this is different

if ur braindead r/csmajors user u take c1 since ur money hungry and suck G's dick in public

now if u have some common sense then its amazon

[slow quarry]

amazon for resume, ramp for ur actual career if ur willing to take risk

i would do both imo

[stone echo]

lmao

[wooden shard]

lel

[slow quarry]

lots of ppl ik at rippling do big tech + rippling

[fervent flax]

what does big tech + rippling mean?

[slow quarry]

big tech summer

rippling fall

[soft basin]

i even took amazon over c1

[fervent flax]

oh damn

i have an exact friend like taht haha

[soft basin]

im so excited for this hurricane

🥳

[slow quarry]

rippling fall resume screened for ppl with big tech/unicorn summer internships lol

[sinful locust]

Who would choose c1 over amazon lol tf

[slow quarry]

every single person interned at something noticeable for summer at rippling fall

[fervent flax]

is is rippling even good

[wooden shard]

is rippling rmeote?

[slow quarry]

idk better than hubspot in my eyes since im a no lifer

[slow quarry]

ur allowed to do remote intern and FT

[wooden shard]

oh shit

did rippling start their summer process

[slow quarry]

idk

[wooden shard]

lmao

braindead

[soft basin]

doesnt uber seem better on resume?

[fervent flax]

who would pick

C1 over

uber

sadge

[fervent flax]

LOL

[slow quarry]

i voted for the trolls

[fervent flax]

WTF

[slow quarry]

[fervent flax]

remember when torin

posted

Optiver vs

palantri

roblox vs step

[slow quarry]

this is hard

[stone yacht]

anyone know if there are any legal problems for lying about already accepting an offer?

[jaunty cove]

What subreddit is that

[fervent flax]

why would you say

you already accepted an offer?

[stone yacht]

yea i have accepted an amazon return intern offer but am in projectmatching for google and they were wondering if I had accepted amazon

[sinful locust]

wait wtf

why are all rippling interns so fking cracked

all have faang and s tier unicorn before rippling

[slow quarry]

Do not say anything

I repeat do NOT say anything

[stone yacht]

o

i said i didnt accept amazon already rip

@slow quarry am i fucked

[quaint bolt]

That’s fine

I’m also doing the same lol

Gonna go into pm for goog for s23 with a couple other summer offers for backup

Insurance?

[candid umbra]

why are you here 💀

[fervent flax]

Quant or Bust

[candid umbra]

LOL

[slow quarry]

That’s ok

[slow quarry]

[olive copper]

anecdotally I was able to get to Rippling final round without any big names on resume

[slow quarry]

Summer or fall

[olive copper]

Summer

[slow quarry]

Summer is different

Summer was more open, fall rippling restricted people with big names on resume for summer

[quaint bolt]

yes matudi

What you want

[vernal furnace]

isn't this the perpetual Big-N (tech) vs quant question no? not as troll as uber vs c1

[olive copper]

Depends which fall you are talking about ig, when I was talking with the recruiter, last fall was pretty much their first intern program so they only had like 5 or 6 interns

[vernal furnace]

do u want better wlb & perks or more $, kind of a question

[slow quarry]

This fall

[quaint bolt]

Dracos judges companies by how much they pay

[slow quarry]

Ppl don’t know what radix is and ppl know what Msft is. They’re voting on what’s more ‘prestigious’

[vernal furnace]

this was on csmajors no? I highly doubt they wouldnt know

[slow quarry]

It’s the same thing for like Google step via Roblox or some unicorn

[slow quarry]

Yea a bunch of csmajors mfs are dumb as fuck

[vernal furnace]

I saw that, everyone in the comments said roblox, no clue abt the poll though

[slow quarry]

The poll was google step over Roblox

[sinful locust]

lul

[slow quarry]

Csmajors also voted two sigma FELLOWSHIP UNPAID over Msft explore internship

[vernal furnace]

so pollsters are naive then ig but i've found most comments aren't too bad

[slow quarry]

Most ppl there don’t know what they’re talking abt imo

[slow quarry]

Comments aren’t bad yea

[sinful locust]

tru

[quaint bolt]

And that’s why I’ve stopped going there

[vernal furnace]

the fact that u landed akuna & dbricks probably made that easier /s

[quaint bolt]

Fair but also I’ve been around enough to not need to go there anymore

Gl

I won’t take my offer but hope you get it

NG pay is fat

@vernal furnace I was at Amazon last summer look at me now

Runtime org?

LOL

[vernal furnace]

when are u graduating again? 24/25?

[quaint bolt]

Loo interviewers tend to ask tagged if there’s a tagged list available

At least they do for meta

Straight outta meta top 50

[quaint bolt]

24

[fervent flax]

where you going this year?

[slow quarry]

@vernal furnace I was at fb and rippling look at me now

[quaint bolt]

2023?

[fervent flax]

yeh this summer

[quaint bolt]

Depends if meta externally gets back to me

[vernal furnace]

akuna was still better no?

[quaint bolt]

If they don’t: msft winter goog summer
If they do: Mets winter goog summer

[quaint bolt]

Need offers from companies that have Canadian offices

Bc I’m staying here FT

[vernal furnace]

why?

[teal light]

Does msft typically ask tagged in final?

[slow quarry]

I will eat a shoe if someone gets a meta intern offer before I get my return internship offer

[quaint bolt]

I was basically only applying to test my resume out and practice interviewing lol

Happened to end up with offers

[fervent flax]

so google this summer?

did you take google over Db?

[quaint bolt]

im in goog host matching for winter but I’ll move to summer once I can confirm msft will do winter

[slow quarry]

That’s normal

[quaint bolt]

Im international

[vernal furnace]

free food, a friend said waterloo campus has good seafood

[quaint bolt]

H1-b too much of a hassle if I go to US

[hollow sun]

@hearty river

[vernal furnace]

I literally asked that yesterday, no one answered

[quaint bolt]

Yes all day everyday

[fervent flax]

if you were not international

why google over DB?

[half plinth]

how was it

[fervent flax]

wait who you

[quaint bolt]

It was basically my end goal ever since I started uni lol

[fervent flax]

😵‍💫

[hollow sun]

Cad pr to tn pipeline

[quaint bolt]

It’d be pretty poetic if I’m there for my last internship and go there ft

[quaint bolt]

Yes

[south aspen]

pls let me know if msft will do winter bc i might need to hop on that too or fall

if u do ill force goog to start host match

[vernal furnace]

waterloo moment, I go to lowly mid tier Canadian

[true crescent]

do you go to canadian uni?

[fervent flax]

Lol

[quaint bolt]

They do for Waterloo but I’m not sure about other schools

[quaint bolt]

Yes

[true crescent]

US universities should do more co-op type things

feel like it would help

[vernal furnace]

but it's okay, I got amazon, so eventually

[quaint bolt]

I know people at “lowly mid Canadian uni” that are at citadel dw you got this

[slow quarry]

Us uni kids can’t even tell left from right how are they gonna do a co op

[true crescent]

bruh

chill w that

[fervent flax]

when joma tech got citadel soph year

Lol

[quaint bolt]

Bro it was easier back then lmao

Ask any loo kid now, you don’t get those interviews until 5th/6th coop now

Unless you’re an icpc chad

[fervent flax]

lol gg

[quaint bolt]

So so much easier back then, have you seen how dogshit his resume was?

If I applied with that shit now I’d get 0 interviews

[vernal furnace]

out of curiousity what abt DE Shaw? ik it's really highly rated but very few people ever discuss it in comparison to places like akuna and hrt

[quaint bolt]

Tru Americans be dumb af

[worn bear]

yo

[frail cape]

[hearty river]

Retool | Build internal tools, remarkably fast.

[slow quarry]

Hexis is different

[sinful locust]

[vernal furnace]

hexis?

[real sedge]

Retool is only worth 3.2bil

Siemen is worth like 81bil

[slow quarry]

Yea ik him

[sinful locust]

[vernal furnace]

[slow quarry]

And growing

[sinful locust]

Siemen will also pay you half their tc

[slow quarry]

Yes

[real sedge]

Exactly

[quaint bolt]

Yeah they lull you into a false sense of security and then hit you with lc hards during the final

[mild compass]

[sinful locust]

[quaint bolt]

I feel like we prolly crossed paths

[sinful locust]

[vernal furnace]

[hollow sun]

Yea I think

[quaint bolt]

Did you hang out at YVR14?

[hollow sun]

[hollow sun]

[stone fern]

Anyone here in the Zillow pipeline?

[quaint bolt]

Yeah I’m tryna buy a house

[tiny stirrup]

does amazon do fall?

got amazon and goog for summer. Which is more likely to move to diff season?

[simple salmon]

i tried moving amazon just now, they didnt let me (i already accepted it)

[quaint bolt]

goog

But you shouldn’t move goog to winter

[tiny stirrup]

so i shouldn't accept the offer just yet..

[simple salmon]

yeah dont

take advantage of the time window

[quaint bolt]

There’s barely any projects and they’re focusing on Waterloo kids rn

[simple salmon]

u can try asking for amazon move, worst case they say no

[tiny stirrup]

wym?

[simple salmon]

i just meant no need to accept early, just accept a few days before deadline

[fervent flax]

damn how goated is waterloo lmao

[slow quarry]

imagine ur school but every single junior is guaranteed meta interview along with most of em being drowned in big tech/unicorn interviews

[woeful lynx]

Worked for Siemens non US and It was one of the best internships I had so far (4 internships before that).
It is highly dependent on the team if you get research focused it’s really cool. I worked with cutting edge tech.
But pay is nothing compared to big tech 😂 like the numbers on levels are the best you can get as intern.

[fervent flax]

sheesh

[quaint bolt]

Well we used to be guaranteed meta interviews until the recession hit

They used to interview the entire class, but not for this winter

[slow quarry]

we're assuming in a perfect wortld

[near swallow]

Common waterloo L

[quaint bolt]

True

[slow quarry]

where market is not like ur typical unstable ex

[near swallow]

Waterloo is poor mans T10

Because meta is poor mans big N

And i am the poor man’s meta employee

[quaint bolt]

Say that to my international tuition

[near swallow]

A poor man

A man of the people

[quaint bolt]

Good you’re Robinhood give me money now

[near swallow]

my password to robinhood is still st3alFromPoor

[quaint bolt]

What was their thing again

Democratizing finance?

[near swallow]

Yeah they have some webpages on how to invest

Therefore changing the world

[real sedge]

Stripes thing is growing the internets GDP

Or smth like that

[quaint bolt]

Like every HFT/quant firm that “provides liquidity to the financial markets” and hence doing God’s work

[real sedge]

Plaid isn't for consumers afaik

Affirm and Klarna is more about "putting you in debt"

[tough ledge]

i don’t graduate till ‘24??? 😭😭

[real sedge]

Email them

[jaunty cove]

mcdonalds dream dead

[echo saddle]

My friend has 2 SWE internships at Amazon, what are the chances she can land Google interview

[tough ledge]

who’s “them”?

[jaunty cove]

she

high

[real sedge]

McDs

[echo saddle]

Her name sounds like a guys name tho

[tough ledge]

Oh, didn’t realize the email wasn’t a dnr

[real sedge]

Idk if it is or not

Im saying find a way to contact them

Mayb they got a recruiting email

Mayb they got a uni recruiting email

[tough ledge]

true, gonna look into it ty

[pseudo cosmos]

For people with amazon offer, what did your portal look like? Did you get the whole moved to another job and different location?

[jaunty cove]

go to your local mcdonalds

[tough ledge]

internship is an internship 🤷‍♂️

[sinful locust]

anyone in the southeast take care bruh

forecast is looking bad

[swift valley]

I have the Amazon final interview scheduled tomorrow (says in the portal) but never got a confirmation email with link to the interview. Should I be concerned?

[rancid flume]

first or second final

[swift valley]

I emailed the amazon interview scheduling team and they said I will receive final confirmation soon hope they don't mess up

[tough ledge]

[woeful lynx]

You get auto offer if you speak German 😎

[limber hull]

just emailed my recruiter

[obsidian olive]

No

[limber hull]

she was supposed to send me the blog links anyway and she forgot LMAO

nahhh riot dgaf

i have a deadline of 10/14 already

riot is the exception, pretty competitive pay and everyone there is pretty happy

all of riot's games are top of class and will be for at least the next decade

fps, moba, card game, autobattler, incoming mmo + fighting game

[pseudo cosmos]

moved location means you got an offer?!

[limber hull]

riot is more like a 40k paycut lol!!

if ur not looking to move after riot then its nbd

like i am

[rancid flume]

what's riot tc for new grad

[limber hull]

190k max, but depends on perf bonus

for that year

if u want the breakdown u candm me

[rancid flume]

is 150 good for LA?

[limber hull]

just depends on ur own + riot's performance for the year

[rancid flume]

i c

[jaunty cove]

why do i want to work at amazon

i forget

[swift valley]

looked up on reddit, discord everywhere it's only me receiving no confirmation email 😭

[jaunty cove]

email them

[pseudo cosmos]

bro same, I'm really hoping this means offer

[swift valley]

This was their response yesterday and I followed up, no response yet

[jaunty cove]

i have it rn

[swift valley]

Yea I didn't fill the survey but sent them my available times manually

So I guess it's different in the system somehow?

I never got a scheduling email but they told me to email them my available time slots

[low vale]

Just had palantir hm

not sure if I did good or bad

problem was very big

She did say she was fine to go overtime to answer some questions for me though, so maybe that's a plus

[jaunty cove]

duh

[sinful locust]

was hm a technical too?

[low vale]

yeah

[jaunty cove]

ok

bag secured

[violet kelp]

anyone do the doordash OA? how was it?

[sinful locust]

Only 2 sentences to answer Amazon questions?

[neon junco]

DoorDash sent out OAs?

Damn ghosted again

[sinful locust]

I had about 4-5 sentence for that Q

[jaunty cove]

arent you special

[sinful locust]

They said to go in depth so I overwrote kek

Oh, prob because the image didn’t use star format

The S part was a big chunk

[fathom hazel]

Amazon ppl told me most of the time the answer in STAR format is better than mentioning LP

[jaunty cove]

the majority of it should be A

[digital bone]

google bold is out but i don't see the application link at the top the page

[frigid gate]

how about both

all of the question I have prepared haev both STAR and LP

is that good ?

[digital bone]

nevermind

[jaunty cove]

what

[woeful lynx]

I feel like Amazon just wants you to say exactly what’s in their leadership principle and if you cite it you get instant offer 😂😂😂

[slow quarry]

Wtf lime alr closed

[woeful lynx]

LP?

[slow quarry]

Got eject for s 23

[frigid gate]

Leader principle i mean

[frigid gate]

I mean all i prêpare is use star methods

[fathom hazel]

so according to what i understand

interviewer : tell me a time ...
me : my first job at ajax.com .... i did .... result (you say this part)
also me : i believe this example demonstrates Customer Obsession, and also Ownership and Dive Deep (you don't say this part)

[frigid gate]

Not really

I use STAR like

[fathom hazel]

basically

[true crescent]

Has anyone who had Amazon portal changes last night receive offer yet?

[frigid gate]

Don't say exactly like that

Cite in T maybe

[fathom hazel]

?

[frigid gate]

S: I have jobs bla bla

T I was given a task bla bla

Because I believe that customer obsession bla bla

So my action bla bla

Maybe so

[fathom hazel]

thats a good point

[jaunty cove]

i think this is too much analysis

just come up with cool stories that show youre a leader and fit the principles

ill lyk how it goes in 30 minutes

[frigid gate]

But its really details

[jaunty cove]

the deatils of the story sure

[north portal]

I just like to tie the key words into the explanation itself

[fathom hazel]

i am inclined to think it doesn't work

also u changed a little bit but its still same as my format, moved in the middle

[north portal]

like i straight up said

[frigid gate]

Yeah it is depend

[woeful lynx]

How many applications did you submit so far? 😂 I am curious

[north portal]

i didnt understand how to apporach etc etc, so i took a deep dive into the mechanisms and various process underlying below it, and used those foudnational concepts to develop an appropriate response

^

use ur key words like this instead

[fathom hazel]

^

[fathom hazel]

thats smart bro

[north portal]

dont make it blatant but make sure u empahsize certain attributes that correspond with it

[north portal]

i said this yesterday

cuz i was asked on deep dives

[fathom hazel]

like in yr Amazon interview ?

[frigid gate]

Use same thing

[fathom hazel]

this example u gave, it's not as subtle as mvplegend27 example

but thats 1 example only, i guess u understand it

[north portal]

yea

[jaunty cove]

youre overthikning it

[north portal]

dont say u believe in it

[fathom hazel]

lol

[north portal]

they dont care about u believing in it, show a time u used it

use the principles

show dont tell

basically imply you used a specific principle to accomplish something and show how it helped you in the situation you were in, but dont specifically say you used it

[fathom hazel]

The🐱

[midnight grove]

i didnt solve roblox technical am i screwed

[twilit wharf]

uh

[twilit wharf]

WTF

mine tomorrow 😢

[midnight grove]

im just stupid

[north portal]

yea

[twilit wharf]

was it brutal

lel funny

[midnight grove]

no but it was quite unexpected

too much reading

[twilit wharf]

I thought it was just a LC medium type problem

[fathom hazel]

should have eat more fish and play a musical intrusment during childhood

[midnight grove]

yeah it is but im just stupid rn

[twilit wharf]

i think he talking about the actual technical interview

[fathom hazel]

oh ye OA reading is long

[fathom hazel]

its a joke

[twilit wharf]

Howd u do the behavioral

[midnight grove]

ohhhh ur right

[midnight grove]

i think i did pretty well

[twilit wharf]

Huh what makes you think that? 😮

[midnight grove]

but technical might be a reject

😭

[twilit wharf]

Did u showed ur thinking well

Lel

[north portal]

me with Amazon, honestly just dont stress

[midnight grove]

he looked very uninterested and didnt understand what i was thinking initially 😭

[north portal]

its out of ur hands now

[midnight grove]

maybe he was taking notes 🤷‍♂️

[twilit wharf]

Hmm well as long as youre constantly explaining your thoughts, not really going silent, but at the same time dont ramble

[midnight grove]

true its over

[north portal]

question

if u answer ur question and show u are trying ot do a thing

[twilit wharf]

amazon is much easier though, tthey accept everyone

[north portal]

but u go quiet in between when u are confused

is that bad

cuz i went quiet for like 2-3 min and then tried to explain a workaround

and then i got a hint and managed to solve the problem

[jaunty cove]

it sounds rng

[north portal]

and he seemed happy enough cuz once i got the hint i knew how to approach it and worked it whilee xplaining

[midnight grove]

roblox interviewer didnt give me any hints 😦

[twilit wharf]

I mean i dont have much experience but ive heard just keep trying to communicate, but im sure if you go silent for am inute as ur reading the problem its not so hard

[north portal]

very rng

ok not bad

[twilit wharf]

Did u ask for any, or talk about where u were stuck?

[north portal]

i did try to keep talking

[midnight grove]

no i didnt

[twilit wharf]

which company

[midnight grove]

was i supposed to

[twilit wharf]

Yes you should ask or talk about where ur stuck exactly, what part of the problem is confusing you

More often than not theyre happy to help

Idk it may be points off but not as much as just completely not communicating and getting stuck

[north portal]

amazon

im very scared

cuz i did well on behavioural

but meh on technical

[frigid gate]

u still have the problem done

that's fine

[twilit wharf]

There are zero (0) people who have gotten rejected after given the amazon interview. Try to hthink of one person who did, you cant

Summer internship

[midnight grove]

i wasnt stuck and i had an idea of what i was doing but i wrote the wrong thing

[north portal]

i literally know someone who got rejected

[twilit wharf]

Maybe at intervals check to make sure if ur going down the right path?

Well that is your judgement

[jaunty cove]

yahkuna matada

who si cracked

[twilit wharf]

how much time do you need to decide

[jaunty cove]

got rejected

[north portal]

yea but it was done after like 40 min and he had to give me a hint for me to figure out the solution and the final solution was still not optimal jsut better than brute force

[midnight grove]

i think i was but i did a lot of small errors in between and it wasnt rlly something i knew was an issue so i didnt bring it up

[vernal plover]

no I don't have an offer, i'm trying to hurry them up to book me my final interview

[twilit wharf]

Okay, im not going to provide false hope or false negativity, its probably best just to wati for hte decision........ but i will say we are still in september which means they may have more spots to fill, compared to those interviewing as late as october and november

[north portal]

well imma pray i get in

good luck!

[twilit wharf]

Lol then tell them that you need the decision by ur interview time

Hello, how are u preparing 😮

😢

[jaunty cove]

20 min for amazon

[twilit wharf]

T minus 20 minutes

[naive kayak]

lc med?

[twilit wharf]

Hey @midnight grove do you feel liek you did spend a lot of time preparing?

Or you oculd have done more

[north portal]

lc easy

[midnight grove]

i didn't prep at all this month cause school too stressful

prob 2 days of prep

[jaunty cove]

doesnt sound like u did that bad

i think your overthinking it

[twilit wharf]

Hmm okay

[sinful locust]

So Amazon use live code which is just a text editor, do they check if ur code works or nah

[twilit wharf]

Yeah put school aside for your future interview prep

[jaunty cove]

im on so much adderall rn

[vernal plover]

when you're telling a recruiter about competing interviews/offers, are you supposed to name the other companies or nah

[tiny stirrup]

Does amazon give housing stipends?

[naive kayak]

yes

[tiny stirrup]

U dont have to.. i think

[midnight grove]

i think even with more prep it wouldnt have helped idkkkk

[twilit wharf]

It is kind of a gamble

You wake up on one side of the bed and you instantly know the optimal solution in your interview... wake up on the other side and youll be stumped for 30 minutes

[north portal]

no its just the syntax

[north portal]

maybe

i just really want amazon

[twilit wharf]

So im assuming they didnt have time to ask for a follow up

[north portal]

cuz its the only final ive done

this was my first ever interview

[midnight grove]

no time nope

[twilit wharf]

Do u play roblox BTW

lel

[sinful locust]

Lol

[midnight grove]

yes

i main arsenal

[hollow field]

pathai oa was annoying lol

[twilit wharf]

im probably screwed since i dont play

[hollow field]

do they even ask if u play

my interview is in like a month

[midnight grove]

no lol

[lofty bluff]

i do sometimes

btw im gonna do a one one one with a recruiter in 3 mins

what do i say

never did this befoee

[midnight grove]

i was panicking too much in the technical

[twilit wharf]

Hmm i thought in behavioral they can ask how much u are involved in gaming

as some more light quesiton

[midnight grove]

idk my interviewer showed up 4 mins late lol

maybe that's why

[naive kayak]

do u play valo

[midnight grove]

🤷‍♂️

[twilit wharf]

Yes

[lofty bluff]

you got technical with pathai?

[naive kayak]

why

[twilit wharf]

Its pretty fun

[midnight grove]

no no i meant roblox

[hollow field]

co-op == intern if it happens during spring or fall

[primal moth]

is blind75 enough prep for microsoft final?

[midnight grove]

no try blind750

[sinful locust]

Blind 7500

[midnight grove]

has anyone completed leetcode

like every Qs

[pseudo shoal]

@sinful locust

[hollow field]

yeah, i asked for the spring 2023 session

[sinful locust]

Isn’t there like 3000 💀

[midnight grove]

no cap

[hollow field]

they prob just didnt change the title. what session did u ask for?

[stoic latch]

no response from microsoft yet? safe to say rejected?

[hollow field]

yeah they prob just didnt want to make a separate hackerrank

[hollow field]

check your microsoft portal

[stoic latch]

it says under review

[hollow field]

it felt like a harder medium, took me 2 out of the 3 hours

[sinful locust]

i have a startup interview coming up and the job description includes a lot of "middleware with Java" and "Writing complex SQL queries"
where tf do i practice those

Startup interviews are wild

[hollow field]

For anyone who had the bloomberg tech chat, how long did it take to receive the onsite

[stoic latch]

[frigid gate]

microsoft take so long

,escpically for explore position

[frozen minnow]

when do u have ur final

[stoic latch]

😭

[leaden seal]

[south oak]

[leaden seal]

[lofty bluff]

[ivory basalt]

optiver or jane street?

[jaunty cove]

doesnt reneging citadel cut ties with them and other shops

[wooden shard]

Tell

[sinful locust]

well is that not factoring 40 hrs per week

thats factoring less hrs per week right

[stoic latch]

fr just reject me already, or move me to inactive

[wooden shard]

Which firm

Five rings?

[sinful locust]

why are you stressed

[wooden shard]

Do citadel off-season

[ivory basalt]

try to move one to the spring/fall

keep citadel so u dont get blacklist

[wooden shard]

Fax

Shitadel

[north portal]

honestly just renege citadel if they do not move to summer or spring and take the other

even if citadel blacklists the others will prob give u it

oh true

but even then

id assume that anyone who has a good internship, with a good skills and shit

would get throught he process regardless

[jaunty cove]

wow

[north portal]

if ur talented enough for quant i dont think reneging matters as much cuz at the end of the day they will want you

damn

[jaunty cove]

now im gonna have to schedule another interviewer weeks out from now and they'll be full by them 👍

[north portal]

oh ok

[glad berry]

Anyone did the Google APM interview?

[north portal]

wait why would u start it then

at that point u know that u gotta go with citadel

ask ur small shop to move to spring

or fall

and keep citadel

[tawny pine]

does anyone have any insight into hrt's final round?

what kind of questions do they ask + is it related to the project ranking sheet they sent

[mild pond]

Friend and I did an Optiver oa together, he got past the screening, I got same oa with same questions, coded the same, got rejected ☠️

[torn gull]

p sure majority of quant firms sent automated OAs

[mild pond]

Wasn’t copy pasted code just knew the idea

[torn gull]

so they would do a resume screen after OA

[tawny pine]

Optiver cares way more ab code quality

• resume screen

[mild pond]

We are in same school and program as well and it was like 😨

[tawny pine]

clean code + good design matter the most for optiver OA

and getting the right answers but even that is secondary I think

[mild pond]

I don’t think that was it

I had been rejected from the trader position before

Had an interview didn’t pass

[glad berry]

Anyone did the Google apm interview?

first round

[empty pond]

has anyone done Stripe’s OA? plz dm!

[sinful locust]

wtf really

[north portal]

thats very nice

[sinful locust]

Agreed, but Im pretty sure the test cases play a large role

interesting

[woeful lynx]

Location?

[woeful lynx]

For Dublin?

[mild pond]

Chicago location

[slow quarry]

Wb resume

[empty pond]

Uhh no location in particular (i only applied to NYC)

[mild pond]

Mine is slightly better if anything

[slow quarry]

Do u have a top company on there

[woeful lynx]

Is it the 60min one?

[mild pond]

No

I got past the resume screen for trading

[slow quarry]

Optiver rejects a lot with top companies so there’s that in mind

For swe

[empty pond]

yeahh

[mild pond]

I also thought I did pretty well on the trading interview

[woeful lynx]

Maybe you had different recruiter who wants to see more

[mild pond]

Answered fast and correctly

Then got rejected

[jaunty cove]

pretty well isnt good enough ig

[mild pond]

Seems like they have pretty high standards

I’m decent at gauging how well I do on interviews

This felt pretty bizarre

[slow quarry]

Wait are u talking abt swe in any way

I was referring to swe rn

[mild pond]

Yes

[woeful lynx]

Currently super busy with other stuff… haven’t done it so far but maybe someone else

[slow quarry]

Swe is a crapshoot

[jaunty cove]

target school is past experience

thats huge for those companies

[slow quarry]

They do care for swe

They reject a lot of ppl with big names on purpose from what I’ve seen

[mild pond]

My friend and I also had HR call

With virtu

Both rejected lmao

For quant research

[ivory basalt]

oh wow, so no-name > faang then for optiver lol

[slow quarry]

Yes

I know multiple people with faang + one of hft or unicorn get Optiver reject

[slow veldt]

any reason for this you know?

[slow quarry]

Look above

[woeful lynx]

You can have the best resume if the recruiter on that given day does not think you are good enough it’s just unlucky

[slow quarry]

Idk why

[woeful lynx]

Hahaha I hope Optiver moves forward with me although my OA was really bad 😂😂 like non optimal solution…

[hardy patrol]

i heard that going this long without a rejection is a good sign since people typically get rejected quick but who knows

resume screen is a literal dice roll

[jaunty cove]

fk amazon

i want imc

[hardy patrol]

no way amz ghosted you on the final

what do you even do now

[slow quarry]

i donty know why

[hardy patrol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBk6mvNJ9_Q

[jaunty cove]

im working with them to rescheudle

the guys name was unpronouncable anyway

[hardy patrol]

lmao

[jaunty cove]

i wouldnt ahve known how to greet him

every cloud has a silver lining

[hardy patrol]

"hello... fella"

[jaunty cove]

no way

their response said i should coordinate about rescheduling

[hardy patrol]

yea i use their names a lot usually

feels more personable

[jaunty cove]

ok dave, im thinking this is a binary search problem. and dave, before i start with that solution, i'm going to explain the time complexity

[torn gull]

no need to address name lol

[hardy patrol]

nah i dont be spamming their name like im siri

i use it a few times in a 30 minute call and thats it

[torn gull]

maybe in end of interview it’s fine

saying goodbye

but even then not common

[woeful lynx]

Ok Dave it looks like that me and you Dave are going to have some great time solving that problem, you Dave, gave me for this interview. Before I start with the assignment Dave I want to say thank you , that you take the time to be with me today.

[jaunty cove]

auto reject

[woeful lynx]

Not enough daves 😦

[hardy patrol]

inb4 my name isnt dave

did that once with a recruiter got the wrong name completely

[woeful lynx]

Has someone taken the Dublin stripe OA? Have few questions 🥰

[hardy patrol]

btw two pointer is simply having l, r pointers on an array and sliding window is the same but your storing values in an array right

[primal moth]

thursday

[hardy patrol]

fuck

[limber hull]

did u have urs already?
it should be riot values and hiring manager

[twilit wharf]

two pointer can be like l=0 and r=array.length-1 and work your way inwards

[jaunty cove]

best two pointer example is trapping rain water

[frozen minnow]

Microsoft

[jaunty cove]

or two sum 2

[hardy patrol]

ah alright

[jaunty cove]

its a lifestyle

[tawdry frigate]

is airbnb untapped auto

[hardy patrol]

right because i was looking at best time to buy/sell a stock and i noticed its sort of the same thing but instead of a R pointer converging towards L its traversal with only L

that makes sense

untapped seems like almost as big of a scam as ripplematch

idk it sounds like a scam

the email isnt even from airbnb

its from untapped

acting like they are airbnb

look at the email addres

[stoic latch]

recruiter said they reviewing late september apparently

[stoic latch]

but not getting rejected yet is good

[stone echo]

damn i want apple fall

[wooden shard]

damn i didnt get that airbnb untapped email

[hardy patrol]

so many graph problems on neetcode that im hoping i never run into

anime pfps secretly cracked

+5 int

[wary harbor]

is applying through untapped good?

bruh how u knwop

letme see lol

😵

[dark jungle]

Does untapped even let you know if you got rejectsd

[jaunty cove]

Same

yo momma is so ugly she is untapped

is uber open

Nvm i applied two months ago

a month ago

[soft basin]

apple is mad hard to get tho

imma be in seattle over the summer so if any of yall are there 👀

[stoic latch]

apple is rng and team dependent

some teams ask questions like reverse a string, others ask lc hard

[blissful elm]

does anyone know

[jaunty cove]

should i put an internship that starts in a week on my resume on untapped

[blissful elm]

how many test cases for intuit?

[jaunty cove]

Where is mr.dp interning

[sinful locust]

How long from phone to final for stripe

Its been 3 tiday so im rejected?

[jaunty cove]

it feels like bragging but ig thats what u have to do

[sinful locust]

What msft recruiter said this is for swe internship

[jaunty cove]

thats smart

[sinful locust]

But when i click to svhedule it says security intern

[noble ore]

bruh

[grave skiff]

fr bro I just want official word bc it be embarassing if some of us get rejected even tho our portal changed🥴

[twilit wharf]

😢

the thing is some people would gladly change their graduation date, and cram in courses, to work somewhere

[noble ore]

if i knew earlier i woulda capped

i was already in loop

[jaunty cove]

how does school factor in to this

is that different than exploding offer

im not even a cs major i dont think my school gives a fk about me

does ur school do othat

[summer vector]

ramp ctf is a great idea tbh

[jaunty cove]

offer acceptance for wat

how can ucsb enforce that

[twilit wharf]

Do i need to clear my search history before an interview

what if i have to share my screen

[jaunty cove]

hm

@hardy patrol is recruiter phone for fidelity something i should prepare for

[sick oar]

all uc’s do

[charred trail]

any canadians that had their portal update last night get the official offer letter yet

[sick oar]

return offers require at least nov 1 decisión date

[jaunty cove]

return offers but not first time

rght

where are u guys getting this informatoin

Accordingly, if you are recruiting summer interns, we suggest that you give students until at least November 1st to make a decision. In some cases, students may ask for extensions beyond this deadline; we encourage you to accommodate their requests whenever possible.

it sounds like a request

they cant rly force anyone to do anything

[shut mango]

Do Canadians need a visa to work in the US, or are we clear under the NAFTA agreement?

[sick oar]

yea im p sure

[jaunty cove]

i feel like if i told a big company that

theyd just say too bad

handshake keeps baiting me with opportunities only available to racial minorities

[charred trail]

a few have according to the reddit thread

[tough ledge]

you need a visa p sure

[shut mango]

Turns out I don't

pretty cool

[wary harbor]

yo whats Optiver's Virtual Panel Series

[gloomy moon]

I keep getting invited to it but wheres my oa

[tough ledge]

[silent ruin]

Wait, did meta's app close already?

[woeful lynx]

Seems like 😅

[silent ruin]

wtf

It was open yesterday

did they open it for like 2 days

[hardy patrol]

they just ask oop basics

[violet kelp]

if microsoft reach out to you for a phone interview, did you pass the resume screen then?

I'm wondering if I should send my updated resume or not

[hardy patrol]

ngl i flunked it but my recruiter told me to study it for the final then sent me to the final round after 2 months

[violet kelp]

it's just a difference in projects, but one of them, I'm currently working on

[hardy patrol]

yea dave lmfao

[violet kelp]

so I don't have as much to say for it

[hardy patrol]

did they reach out to you

[violet kelp]

yeah they did. I just didn't want to keep my weaker resume in there

if they end up not taking me cause my resume wasn't good enough

[jaunty cove]

Lol

[hardy patrol]

should i backtrace and figure out or just start tracking from here on out

[woeful lynx]

Check your emails

[lime jay]

true

[low vale]

i think you should spend some time backtracing with your emails

[lime jay]

will do, thanks

[low vale]

having a sheet is p useful for yourself imo

[lime jay]

i started one and got lazy

[hollow field]

jw whats after databricks phone

[lime jay]

(ignoring the fact that actually applying arguably takes more effort than keeping track of where u applied)

[safe minnow]

Seeing the sheet is pretty cool imo

I like being able to look at a sheet full of rejects

[low vale]

100 rejects but 1 offer

completely successful recruiting season

[safe minnow]

Just need one good offer

And we're golden
