[frigid gate]

why u so suprise I got some at cmu geo tech and mit

[half plinth]

applied as junior with referral within 2 hrs of openeing

never heard back 😦

[muted summit]

maybe they are sending in waves

and it doesnt matter as much when u applied

[half plinth]

yeah but im not rlly able to solve any hards on my own

even with infinite time

[raw vortex]

pattern recognition. some hards are really hard and you probably wont be able to solve unless you are way above average

[half plinth]

but wb the easier hards

[frigid gate]

guess what when I was in high school I learn in a f*** gifted school and everyone around me is like 2200 + rating lc and candidate master or master + in codeforces

so .....

[raw vortex]

but there is a big pattern between leetcode so you need to do more problems and match patterns

[half plinth]

i dont think u need to consistently solve hards for faang but i think its kinda fair to say u can get hards now in interviews

[raw vortex]

its just like studying for a test

[jaunty cove]

practice practice practice

[half plinth]

yeah but even with understanding solutions

[frigid gate]

yeah it is good to know bunch of dp

[raw vortex]

theres no secret key

[jaunty cove]

4 months ago i couldnt solve lc easies. i thought i could never solve lc mediums. Then i started solving lc mediums. Then I thought i could never solve lc hards. Then i started being able to solve (some) lc hards

[random apex]

no fuckkng way last year was two hards

[half plinth]

yeah maybe i just havent done enough hards then? i did like 200+ mediums and 40+ hards so i thought i would make some progress towards hards

[low vale]

its 2 easies

[wooden shard]

Pog

[jaunty cove]

im trying to just say that

[random apex]

but people who passed a few test cases got phone

[low vale]

why is it that every time i come here its talk about leetcode

[wooden shard]

How easy

Leetcode is so fun

[jaunty cove]

dont stress about not solving problems

[random apex]

dont sile me pls

[half plinth]

i tried so hard yet im still ass

[jaunty cove]

just practice

[sinful locust]

Google phone technicals are Lc easies too

[frigid gate]

hard is not that hard

if I not get dp so I can solve hard

[random apex]

i trust

[jaunty cove]

why are u stressing about amazon final then lol

[wooden shard]

September is interview season

[jaunty cove]

also lc hard is hard

[random apex]

have you gotten phone @sinful locust

[low vale]

bro its 2 easies

i got phone

[jaunty cove]

relatively speaking

[random apex]

how was it

[frigid gate]

because I got system design

[frigid gate]

[jaunty cove]

sounds like u got object oriented design

from this morning

[half plinth]

whats the solution besodes do more leetcode

cuz thats not working for me lmao

[jaunty cove]

also just cause ppl at your highschool were good at competitive programming doesnt mean LC hard is easy

[frigid gate]

not really it like design cache expiration date

[hardy patrol]

if you want to get better at something do it more often

[random apex]

fuckkk

last year our oa was 2 hard graphs

[half plinth]

so like go back and review the hards, try to generalize patterns and understand solutions better

[frigid gate]

bruh I have never said lc hard is easy

[random apex]

atb man

[half plinth]

how did u study to get to usaco plat

[jaunty cove]

but youre acting like its not hard even though it takes a lot of practice to get there

[muted summit]

u prob just have to look at a ton of different problems if you wanna get better at hards

[low vale]

🤔

[muted summit]

understand all those solutions

try them on ur own

be patient

etc

[half plinth]

i feel like the studying process to get there is similar to lc

[grand bane]

how are we feeling kings

[low vale]

usaco plat is very fucking hard

the only 2 usaco plats i know

went straight to trading firms out of high school

[frigid gate]

nah I just want to say that it is hard but not mean impossible to solve them

[low vale]

like one went to jump

[frigid gate]

sorry if I made u misunderstanding ab that

[jaunty cove]

sorry i misinterpreted what you said

[quaint bolt]

how hard were you grinding usaco back in the day

[low vale]

the other went to js

[wooden shard]

yeah same

[low vale]

like its fucking hard

[wooden shard]

he went to five rings

sophomre year

[half plinth]

yeah i guess time to spam more hards then

[low vale]

unsure, i didn't know them all that well

they were older than me

[frigid gate]

Nah it's fine I understand that becauz in order to get to hard level it's take so much time

[quaint bolt]

interesting I’ve been thinking of getting into competitive programming for a while now tbh

Seems fun

[half plinth]

how diff are the lc patterns from usaco

or are the main lc patterns a subset of theusaco patterns

[low vale]

4 hours a day?

goddamn

im thinking aderall might be the move

[frigid gate]

how ab grinding codeforces and despair

[jaunty cove]

it is

[low vale]

i mean i have adhd so im sure i'll end up taking it at some point

[half plinth]

did u get av internship yet

[low vale]

i should use it to study more than 20 min at a time

[quaint bolt]

is that usaco training website still good or would you say just dive into cf

[jaunty cove]

yes

[sinful locust]

Share li post

[jaunty cove]

after i got prescribed adderall i became god

[low vale]

training site is supposed to be god tier

[jaunty cove]

Jk

[half plinth]

i should have done usaco bruh

so behind

😦

[jaunty cove]

but it made me productive

[frigid gate]

dive into cf

[muted summit]

dw bro, im a junior and i just started leetcoding this summer i could barely do easies

[low vale]

nobody told me about usaco till i was a senior

[frigid gate]

and walk through div 1

and die

[low vale]

😭

[muted summit]

i heard about LC in hs but I never did it

and i never heard about CP, i did FRC in hs tho

[half plinth]

i didnt even know about this leetcode shit until the end of high school

[low vale]

those who learn in highschool are better off

[frigid gate]

same

[half plinth]

this same guy created a post asking ppl whove done 300+lc to comment on his post

[quaint bolt]

Bro I couldn’t code when I entered uni and I’m doing alright now

Y’all will be fine

[frigid gate]

[half plinth]

imagine where did u end up

[jaunty cove]

no names

[low vale]

wagons, are you graduating in 4 years?

[jaunty cove]

🙂

[quaint bolt]

[muted summit]

wagons is it fr true that all you need for interviews is b75

[half plinth]

all i have is a shit internship and a bunch of faang rejection emails 😦

[quaint bolt]

I swear I get asked this every couple days but my recruiting szn so far: Akuna, Palantir, Databricks, Datadog, Msft, Amazon return

[frigid gate]

that i didn't do properly

[wooden shard]

[low vale]

[quaint bolt]

Yes

[half plinth]

lost sophomore boutta land aurora rn

[sinful locust]

akuna questions are troll

[quaint bolt]

Akuna was more C++ trivia

[low vale]

what's aurora?

[sinful locust]

python akuna was an lc hard but made into a medium

[jaunty cove]

you guys are all so hard working and its inspiring

[muted summit]

I'm waiting for when Lost Sophomore doesn't end all messages with a period

[quaint bolt]

FE interviews usually ask about the framework that company uses

[low vale]

i am literally here talking to you slacking off

from my math homework

[half plinth]

av company

[jaunty cove]

Lol

same

[muted summit]

@sleek pike its ok, its iconic

[lethal sand]

when does Amazon roll out anything for DE intern postions?

where is msft as well

mann this companies are sleepingggg

[frigid gate]

u have google

[sinful locust]

Why does this recruiting season feel so dead

Not many companies open

As compared to last year

[lethal sand]

recesss brruhhh

[sinful locust]

Very hard to find a job 😦

[frigid gate]

stop

[sinful locust]

Damn

[frigid gate]

so how much offer ?

[low vale]

how did you find 300 companies

[frigid gate]

[quaint bolt]

This szn is v rough

Don’t be too hard on yourself

[sinful locust]

the whole 300+ doesnt mean anything about you

its a reflection about the market

[soft basin]

yeah the next upcoming seasons are gonna be a little tougher

[sinful locust]

so do not worry

[soft basin]

luckily i got 2 offers early on

[low vale]

same

but im greedy

i want more

[hardy patrol]

only have one as a backup but im gunning for pinterest and amazon

[low vale]

i want the satisfaction of stealing offers from people who need them

[soft basin]

i pretty much have what i need

junior in college as well

[low vale]

oh of course, I'll share right now

cold email a local company

[soft basin]

seems like same pfp but diff person

[hardy patrol]

bro no one is surviving this seasons msft resume screen

[low vale]

...

[sinful locust]

its still tough 🤣

interviews hard as hell

for quant at least

[soft basin]

usually local companies will go to ur schools job fair or somethin

[sinful locust]

i just cant get past tech screens

[hardy patrol]

cycle is od

[sinful locust]

but passing quant interviews harder than passing tech interviews

[quaint bolt]

Try your luck with sophomore internships

[low vale]

goku disappeared

[sinful locust]

lmaooo but you passed bruhhh

[jaunty cove]

probability brainteasers r so cool unironically

[sinful locust]

theres no way you did bad

[coarse vigil]

What happens to goku

[sinful locust]

and then you pass 🤣

[wooden shard]

gl

[half plinth]

or swe

[low vale]

i have yet to actually mess up on a technical phone

[half plinth]

😩

[low vale]

but i have a 50% chance of getting hard railed by final

oh

fuck

coin flip

[half plinth]

did u guys just apply online for google

and then get OA

[low vale]

i applied w/o referral

got it

[half plinth]

what do u have on ur resume

[low vale]

i applied like the day it came out here

[north portal]

bro same

i didnt get an OA

[half plinth]

all u have is some startup internship?

[low vale]

prev internship at f100 company

some projects

not much

[half plinth]

damn it’s just rng then ig

for stripe did u apply online

and apple

[quaint bolt]

im sorry i took everyone's spots @median hedge

[half plinth]

this shit is fucked lol

[low vale]

man i wish stripe reached out to me

[half plinth]

oh rlly that’s good

[quaint bolt]

ok

[hardy patrol]

how do yall even get referrals tho

[half plinth]

how about apple

[hardy patrol]

like randos on linkedin or

[half plinth]

how is this far from good lmao

gg ig

wait uw didn’t start yet?

[low vale]

doesn't your college limit the number of ap creds?

mines is capped at 32

oh bruuuh

i shoulda been born in the west

l+ratio i guess

[sinful locust]

youre a freshman?

sheesh and apple ml reached out?

cracked

i need apple ml to reach out lmao

[half plinth]

really nice state school

[random prairie]

whats the answer for the common explore answer for phone book with name and address etc?

damn ucs are really 30k tuition in state

💀

so expensive

[dusk kayak]

UCs big cash

💀

[random prairie]

but its cali i guess

[dusk kayak]

nah, my CSU tuition with everything is 1/3rd the cost

[low vale]

i have a full ride and it feels weird rushing through college and not getting all i can out of it

[random prairie]

aid? at a uc?

[dusk kayak]

the aid that UCI gave me was still less worth than going to SJSU with 0/year of aid

[low vale]

opportunity cost and i hate school

[random prairie]

i have full tuition but if i wanted to finish slower than 3 years i would have to take a shit ton of filler humanities classes because of cs prereqs classes :/

[low vale]

im not dorming so i don't know anyone

i tried but its a pain

[dusk kayak]

but then again i got stupid amounts of aid and get paid to go to college now so

[random prairie]

u have to take minimum amount of credits for scholarships to apply

[dusk kayak]

^

[low vale]

did meet some people though but not graduating asap feels wasteful

[random prairie]

here its 15 credits (5 or so classes)

[dusk kayak]

all of my aid requires me to take 12 credits minimum

[low vale]

lets say i get amazon ft right, that like 180 plus experience and a faster promotion

[sinful locust]

Wait so u can’t do a co op?

[dusk kayak]

no skully

[low vale]

which is way more than the last year of my scholarship would be

[dusk kayak]

college has been mad fun but the experience is different for everyone

ong the commuters here have mad friends

[safe minnow]

*100k

[low vale]

exaggerated, i do know people

[sinful locust]

*50k

[low vale]

but i dunno if the college experience makes me want to stay another year

[safe minnow]

If you’re a baller

[sinful locust]

What if I hate college and work?

What do I do

[dusk kayak]

go NEET

because 36 hours of work is full time

[sinful locust]

Yea

[dusk kayak]

its honestly not bad

im taking meme courses rn and get my aid for doing virtually no work and hanging out with my girl for like 8 hours a day

yeah exactly

[low vale]

i think he meant after taxes 200k would be 100k

i dunno

im a very fickle guy

my mind could change tomorrow

[safe minnow]

100k would be hard btw

[sinful locust]

Depends

[safe minnow]

30k in NY for the entire year seems like insane budgeting to me

[sinful locust]

Depends if you’re the 17 year old stripe intern or not

[safe minnow]

Or Cali

[low vale]

nah i'd live with parents for first year before moving out

want a beeg safety net

[safe minnow]

Assuming it’s remote

[sinful locust]

living with parents is a stigma for no reason

although it is good to have independence and a life skill

[low vale]

i live in nyc

i think thats doable

[safe minnow]

Oh

Nvm

[sinful locust]

!process @sleek pike

You can only use this command in 2022_winter_intern_process, 2022_summer_intern_process, 2022_grad_process, 2022_fall_intern_process, 2023_summer_intern_process, 2023_winter_intern_process, 2023_grad_process

[sinful locust]

cost of losing a year of salary and paying an extra year of tuition

vs not doing that

[proud whale]

can make sense either way

[low vale]

i mean i go to a t25

hmmm

maybe i should do all 4 years

[sinful locust]

well if you already can get an offer that you want

[low vale]

i dunno

[sinful locust]

then its a good move to graduate early

[low vale]

i got amazon and im perfectly happy with it

[sinful locust]

if its a job that youre very happy with and is very close to the top of what you want

[low vale]

but i know if i stay another year of internships

[sinful locust]

then theres not much of a reason to stay in college just to stay

[low vale]

and grad in 4 years

i could definitely hit hfts

i got pretty far with akuna this time around

i dunno if i'd get it

[sinful locust]

I’m thinking of delaying my graduation to 5 years

[low vale]

but i know i could get close

[sinful locust]

akuna pays worse than amazon

[low vale]

this is true

[sinful locust]

youd be better off at amazon

[low vale]

wait

[sinful locust]

tbh

[low vale]

no, you're thinking of sig

[sinful locust]

no akuna pay is bad too

its like 200k

[low vale]

thats a lil above amzn

[sinful locust]

well "bad" compared to other quants

[safe minnow]

I’m never opening an account at c1

[sinful locust]

oh is it, I thought amazon was going higher

[sinful locust]

Why not

What’s in your wallet

[low vale]

oh maybe they are this year

not sure

[sinful locust]

idk

[safe minnow]

Chase

[sinful locust]

2 more internships

either way amazon probably the better place to work tbh

[low vale]

i thought amzn was 180 or lower

probably

[sinful locust]

I dont think akuna's a great place to be tbh

I’m gonna have 12 internships

its mainly like a stepping stone

whatever viasat pays because that offer will expire before you get js

How much is a quarter

im doing 2 internships and then jumping into full time probably

fuck learning

ive learned enough

[low vale]

i could realistically have 4 or 5 if i did offseason

[sinful locust]

Lol

[low vale]

food for thought

maybe i should do offseason

oh maybe i should make a shitty startup if i get into google

pitch it to Ycombinator

[sinful locust]

Do it

[low vale]

and have them throw money at me for the google name

[sinful locust]

Me too

well viasat can report you to js

I’ll become the ceo

and get you nokker'd

I'll tell them

[jaunty cove]

why did nobody tell me probability was fun

[sinful locust]

I'll find out

I have connections

[sinful locust]

Go become a quant trader then

[low vale]

wait i can say i have meta-experience when pitching the shitty startup

[sinful locust]

no

[jaunty cove]

its probably too late for me but i still enjoy it

[sinful locust]

12

[low vale]

because i technically worked with a meta engineer

[sinful locust]

Meta verse

I once talked to a guy who at one point had a jane street offer, can I say I have jane street experience

Yea

[low vale]

i do unironically have an idea for a startup though, maybe i should try building a prototype

[sinful locust]

I read Elon musks tweet, can I say I have Elon experience?

because it looks bad on your part and they wouldnt like that

its like what happened to nok

[half plinth]

i agree

rigby dfoesnt need learning

[sinful locust]

ong

[half plinth]

hes too cracked

[sinful locust]

incorrect

I havent learned shit

What happened to nok

yeah and they didnt give him a chance to renege

they just rescinded instantly

yeah but they could leave it open

and just ignroe

but they dont ignore

they get mad

cuz what stops you from doing it to js then

youre already proving thats something you would do

no

hes an intern

[half plinth]

then how did u have non compete

at 2s

[sinful locust]

@sinful locust

Can u just hide ur non compete

Say u don’t have it

[sinful locust]

mine was like 3 months long

pretty meaningless

[half plinth]

whats the point of that lol

[sinful locust]

there is none

I have no idea why they had it

[half plinth]

cant do 2 quant back to back?

[sinful locust]

cant do a fall

but you can

because they dont care

Dam rigby is 2s intern

and wont enforce it

[half plinth]

didnt ohad do it

[sinful locust]

yeah he just asked 2s and they said they dont care

Send LinkedIn pls

[half plinth]

lmao burh

[sinful locust]

if they choose to enforce they have to pay your salary

so none of them are gonna do it for interns

Pls send

cuz it just has no value

pls dont send

Why not

[half plinth]

[sinful locust]

they overpay

money is fun

[half plinth]

shoulda been like 750 at least

[hardy patrol]

bro i got 675 and they still let me pass lmfao

[sinful locust]

They accept any codesignal score

its because your shit was worth an extra 50

[half plinth]

800+ prob the move

[hardy patrol]

[sinful locust]

Pinterest 👻

[half plinth]

[still yacht]

But ever since I've gotten the offer, life has been weird. Any free time I get, eg on the commute to school, or just random sitting around, I just think about how 1 week ago, I didn't even have any offers, and now I'm in FAANG for next summer. I day dream about how it'll be. What I'll do. Etc. Especially since it's in a different city and I'll have to relocate. So excited for exploring new city and stuff.

[hardy patrol]

going to downvote that post out of spite

[low vale]

Its weird because Meta used to hire almost as many people as amazon

but got none of the shit

[jaunty cove]

bc they made the metaverse

[low vale]

well actually meta because an exclusive club this year

:^)

[low vale]

i would choose whichever pays me more

[still yacht]

I walk into Amazon's gorgeous white marble office every single day surrounded by prestigious, bright, talented co workers. No non-targets. Just perfection. It feels like the 90s. We do massive fucking projects, and we exit to any fucking quant fund we want. Amazon. It's so sexy. You think I care that a meta/google has a similar size and L3 profile? It doesn't come close. Ahhh, amazon. I'm so happy here.

[low vale]

i will shill for zuck if he gives me an extra doller per hour

[jaunty cove]

meta is definitely going to reopen right

[sinful locust]

no

[hardy patrol]

amazon lowkey my last hope

[half plinth]

[hardy patrol]

[sinful locust]

damn thats kidna tough

[hardy patrol]

fax

[half plinth]

lmso facts

[sinful locust]

I mean they prob shouldnt take that long

[low vale]

i mean they are very cool

[half plinth]

if pit csc didnt exist

[sinful locust]

assuming they respond tomorrow

[hardy patrol]

we need to make the internship hunt harder

[sinful locust]

exactly

[low vale]

but like they taught thousands of unqualified csmajors to go for all the internships

[hardy patrol]

release our own pittcsc but its filled with companies with impossible resume screens and full headcounts

[low vale]

and then made an automatic applicaiton thing too

like

[formal gust]

internship looking so dry rn 😢

[half plinth]

simplify is different

[low vale]

people who have no internships but are trying hard get screened

[half plinth]

simplify is a yc startup not a pitt csc thing lol

[low vale]

no thats not what i mean

because they got so much right

companies have to screen harder

[sinful locust]

everyones qualified, thats the problem

we need harder leetcode questions

and more college name screens

[willow drift]

can any github interns crash prod until i get an offer

[hardy patrol]

we dont need harder lc bruh im already failing meds

[sinful locust]

can any canvas and gradescope interns crash prod

[still yacht]

SWE is such a shitty career

[formal gust]

where are you guys going for summer?

[sinful locust]

it really is

yeah I know im saying in general

not for you

stop reading old shit

[low vale]

maybe its the recession but i feel like this season is much harder for no reason for new people

[hardy patrol]

i think people saw all those shitty "life as a software engineer" videos on yt and tiktok where they pet 2 dogs and jerk off the whole day and people genuinely believe its that easy

[sinful locust]

I think they reject

146

VIRTU FINANCIAL

msft is wildly rng like even more than amazon

[sinful locust]

[hardy patrol]

hours after getting his dream company

[jaunty cove]

he started asking about competitive programming and then realized he didnt gaf

[hardy patrol]

he was already like "im sad i need google now"

[jaunty cove]

within like 30 minutes

Lol

bro is determined

[hardy patrol]

bro got high from the dopamine then came down immediately

when he saw the offer

[jaunty cove]

thats when i realized i was not going to be instantly happy by chasing tc

when i saw that

[hardy patrol]

deadass

[low vale]

that was the saddest think ive ever seen

[jaunty cove]

Lmao

[hardy patrol]

hedonic treadmill moment

[low vale]

treadmill set on ten thousand

like im still happy i got amazon

[hardy patrol]

i no longer care about money or career growth i just want the rush of serotonin from claiming yet another offer letter

[low vale]

its been like 2 weeks

i dunno how he got sad after 30 min

too many phones

you need a bigger hit

[hardy patrol]

[pseudo shoal]

[hardy patrol]

he said

"settle"

my settle is a 90k tc trading company

i guess its all relative

[jaunty cove]

is fidelity rly considered a trading company

Lol

[hardy patrol]

thats the mindset that turns you into goku

[jaunty cove]

i think they enable other ppl to trade

[sand pendant]

going to wake up to msft offer

(manifesting)

(ceo offer)

[obsidian olive]

<--- the real FAANG now

[still yacht]

But ever since I've gotten the offer, life has been weird. Any free time I get, eg on the commute to school, or just random sitting around, I just think about how 1 week ago, I didn't even have any offers, and now I'm in FAANG for next summer. I day dream about how it'll be. What I'll do. Etc. Especially since it's in a different city and I'll have to relocate. So excited for exploring new city and stuff.

[dense spear]

worst part about having no offer yet is waiting for the POSSIBLE offer post-final

fuckin life hangin in the balance via some peeps at a desk making the decision whether to give me more money than I've seen in my life at once 💀

[glass dagger]

hi abhiram

[teal plover]

your code must be dummy crappy to not get return from amazon ngl

[rough parcel]

America in a nutshell

[woeful lynx]

Still waiting to hear from Amazon 😦 How long does it take for Amazon to get back to you after OA?

[woeful lynx]

When did you take it?

[visual kestrel]

me brother

[dusk kayak]

But ever since I've gotten the offer, life has been weird. Any free time I get, eg on the commute to school, or just random sitting around, I just think about how 1 week ago, I didn't even have any offers, and now I'm in FAANG for next summer.

[proud whale]

I feel like I’ve always known the outcome after finishing the final

Nah I’m not

[sinful locust]

Amz bulk processes applications so maybe 2/3 weeks

[proud whale]

But I’ve known the rejects

And known the offers

Never been surprised by the results

[dense spear]

i feel good about both but that doesnt mean much because the more I think about it the more I doubt it and realize what I could've done better yk?

always improvements to be made

[proud whale]

Hmm I see

[dense spear]

so it slowly builds doubt on the result

[proud whale]

Idk if u feel good ab both imo ur solid

[dense spear]

hoping so lol

[proud whale]

Which company

[dense spear]

just need one at the least to pull through so i can coast through these next semesters relatively worry free

c1 and linkedin

[proud whale]

🔥

[dense spear]

well it was UI

Ui engineer

[proud whale]

Why does that matter

Ur acting like it being UI a makes it any less of an accomplishment

[dense spear]

people shit on frontend regularly so I like to preface it; I still like frontend and stand by it

[proud whale]

Nah him for saying well it was UI to be got linkedin

Nah fuck ppl who do that bruh

Do you

[dense spear]

I appreciate that though

same-ish OA i believe

[proud whale]

It is to me

[dense spear]

the interview is diff but the OA is the same afaik

[proud whale]

Don’t feel any lesser ab the companies or processes you’re handling because u do front end instead of some other shit lol

[dense spear]

❤️

I try spreading that message with companies too

too many mfs lookin down on anything that isnt FAANG or $50+ / hr

[proud whale]

Yeah def

[dense spear]

not in here so much but on the subreddits and other discs

ive seen it

someone posted questions about a starbucks intern thingy and people were clowning on em

just fuckedu p

[golden tusk]

That was just ppl not knowing Starbucks have internships and shitposting too much

I agree they’re dumb tho

This chat isn’t far off sometimes lol

[dense spear]

ig but there is definitely an underlying elitism and feeling of unhealthy comparison in CS i feel and shit like blind does NOT help the problem

[sinful locust]

that shit was cancer

what is that IDE bro

💀

the print shit

[lean pond]

w

[summer vector]

whats your school

we have most major schools

esp all the ones on every major ats system

[woeful lynx]

You don’t have all those schools listed in greenhouse drop downs. For example few European unis are not possible. Habe to select “other” 🥲

[summer vector]

Which schools? I’ll run through greenhouse , but I believe we have all the ones from the standard list. Some companies add custom schools

[woeful lynx]

I send you a dm

Don’t want to dox me 😂

[safe minnow]

Is this normal to get a month after being referred

[hardy patrol]

i still didnt get oa im getting a little worried

[grave skiff]

has anyone take bloomberg behavoral yet?

[shy granite]

Did anyone apply to Databricks and got a recruiter call but no oa?

[cloud widget]

why do i not have access to 2022 fall process

[blissful elm]

Anyone else who still hasn’t heard back from Pinterest after OA 🤣

It’s been like two weeks

Wtf

[old fog]

I applied for amazon sde summer 2023 in July via referral.. i got an email last friday saying that my application is incomplete (even though it was submitted throughout this time)

Anyone else had same experience?

Yeah

[jaunty cove]

rare referral L

[old fog]

😕

[sinful locust]

No the recruiters contact you for the correct role

when were you reffered?

[sharp reef]

is applying early or waiting for a referral better?

[sinful locust]

and for what role?

intern?

Then the refferal system gives you refferals for amazon.jobs

you need to apply at amazonuniversity.jobs

yes

but thats not the correct application

Amazon student programs handles internship

yup

Its based on luck honestly

I know people who passed all test cases still got rejected from amz

and others with half test cases moved to final interviews

[stone echo]

im so hyped lol

cap one full time offer

[jaunty cove]

ig they werent good enough at LARPing on the leadership principle questions lol

[stone echo]

for 2 yearsw from now

and i can sit on it for as long as i want

[sinful locust]

Amz OA Lp part sucks

[bleak storm]

dafug

[stone echo]

🙂

[bleak storm]

ur cracked

[stone echo]

yeah this is very enticing now

i might skip co-op and grad a semester early

and start full time

can always jump from cap one after a year

idk i have amazon this summer for 14 weeks im tryna figure out if i need another internship

[quaint bolt]

why intern a billion times

but I would def pick amazon over cap1

[stone echo]

well im tryna see if i can get something valid for spring/fall

[bleak storm]

intern at some startups

[stone echo]

if i dont get anything nice, ill just grad early now that i have cap one as a fallback

[oak kite]

tiktok oa q3 is fucking hard

[stone echo]

i interned at disney, bcg, now incoming amazon

kinda wanted to do hubspot

[bleak storm]

acryldata (former datahub from linkedin), bluesky data (got to work with 1 of 7 distinguished engineer at Uber?)

[sinful locust]

After the OA

[hardy patrol]

lp is more important than the coding ive known people in the same boat

[old fog]

How many questions in tiktok oa?

[north portal]

did u not get hubspot?

im still waiting for an update from them

[naive kayak]

my recruiter said to wait for 2 weeks but its been 2 weeks today and nothing yet

[stone echo]

waiting, are you post final round?

[stone echo]

post final round for you too?

[north portal]

im waiting post behavioural phone

[naive kayak]

no i am waiting for a potential final

[stone echo]

yeah, that doesn't matter, they are figure out headcount

im post final waiting for offer

they have very limited spots this year

[north portal]

wait does this mean ill get fucking rejected for having other company interviews

cuz he asked

[stone echo]

no lol

[north portal]

ok bet

[stone echo]

whos ur recruiter

JY?

[north portal]

ye

[frigid gate]

no

stop sushi

[north portal]

dont even think about putting this negative energy on Hubspot, you literal bot

Hubspot got me plz

[stable shell]

how long have u been waiting for a decision?

[stone echo]

10 weeks

🫢

[sinful locust]

yo

quick question

would yall say its too late if i started applying this week 💀

[north portal]

no

its never too late

keep applying and starting

[sinful locust]

aight

[north portal]

they keep hiring for a while

last year i applied for fidelity in april

and got it by late april

this post is so stupid, they do not explain how to do or approach any of these methods

also, mega cap

like 80% of the recruiters at career fairs and on linkedIn just told me to apply online

he keeps shitting on how u have a low answer rate to online apps, but its the same for recruiters

true

its a combination of rng and luck

to get in

the only company that really pissed me off this year was Capital one

shit company

recruiter ghosts me for weeks on end, and then says that they are full, while kids who applied after me and got interview after me got powerdays

true

oh Credit suisse might not have an internship this year

apparently a lot of locations dont have headcounts yet

cuz they have financial problems

[safe minnow]

Does anyone know where to go for Amazon jobs customer support

My application straight up disappeared

[north portal]

ur gone

they literally removed u

blacklisted

[low vale]

This post is like that meme of the politician saying "I will do things" without saying what

[hardy patrol]

bank of america sent me a rejection i aint even apply

[north portal]

i forgot to do the video interview lmaoo

[hardy patrol]

premature rejection bruh

IDK

[north portal]

ye

its like how c1 is called TIP

[hardy patrol]

not gonna believe this but you don't need to work there for a bofa cc

lmao

pinterest amz and microsoft MIA

love it

do you need the link for the bloom tech gca

do that and see what you get

[grand wyvern]

Did someone get an invite from google and databricks for oa?

[hardy patrol]

if the scores good enough share that

its a proctored test

oh yea ngl i didnt figure that out i think your not supposed to have a codesignal account linked to the one they sent the gca to its wacky

whats the block link

[blissful elm]

you still havent submitted?

[hardy patrol]

practice test is easier just keep in mind

[real idol]

I think taking a codesignal costs the org that sent the invite

So you'd be hindering them not helping them by taking their gca

[proud crag]

this is why i dmed him

he implies has twitch on resume, which means he probably did their OA at one point even if not this year

[hardy patrol]

i wasnt talking about myself

[proud crag]

oh ok

i see

[hardy patrol]

bro was like

[north portal]

reading comprehension

is 0

how did u relate this to Charlie himself lmao

[proud crag]

he used first person

"i did great on cap1" "i have twitch"

[north portal]

bro was like....

[proud crag]

bro [i] was like

[north portal]

@honest spire we on the same wavelength

[proud crag]

is a common word to skip in my experience

[north portal]

nah this is crazy

he added the I into the sentence lmao

[proud crag]

are u telling me people will never skip an I

[hardy patrol]

semantics aside do you guys have that block gca link

[north portal]

no

[north portal]

dude, not in a sentence like that

[proud crag]

bro was like could also have meant "bro that was like" or "it was like"

[north portal]

just vibe

ur fine

worst case make it return true

so u get points for attempting it

ye lmao

[mild compass]
