anyone know how the citadel first phone interview is
leetcode discuss is full of indians who are getting hard ass question on their interview
sounds like hell
not bad
do yall think using a standard python list with pop and append is sufficient to simulate a stack in an interview setting
or is that lame
what is the alternative?
idk, a linked list
Use deque
Do it in assembly to show dominance
cause list has amortized operations
Yeah linkedin list based implementation is better
Probably ask the interviewer about the normal list vs SLL implementation and which he would prefer
Ye you can implement stack as deque, but queue as deque works too
So I always use it lol
fax
at least for lc
XD
yes
idk bfs is superior
Yes
word
behavioral and coding
I'm pretty sure nobody cares man lol
ok
its fine
med / easy
np gl
whens the interview
it’s rng so just be confident
in 30
supposedly
gl to u @jaunty cove
thank you
amazon
Nice
do u know how many rounds after the phone @sinful locust
Final?
Glgl
🙏
i think im overprepared for the lc question
need to not be a dumbass with behavioral cause i stutter a lot
Don't you have notes for yourself
yea i wrote notes in prep for the last scheduled amazon interview
gonna get those
thanks for remidningm e
Have it on ur screen 👀
lol
i got a notebook with keyword and such
But you won't be able to refer to it during the interview
why not
bro will turn into the green goblin if they ghost him for the 3rd time
Yea it will be sus
after all this prep
yea
no way you dont get it
They have to show up
THanks
goku got it with no dsa/algo classes and like 70 lc total solved
Goodluck Colin
Are you not supposed to have notes during interview
Got the Palantir UK Intern offer 🎉🎉
epic
I do have notes, but I have it on my laptop so it's not so obvious
Nah no screen share
yo whats teh difference between SWE and SDE
SIMP
there is none
Anyone get pure storage oa?
cap he made me share my screen
is FrontEnd Dev within the SWE catogory than>
imo it is
bc chime code was broken
what about not in ur opinion
IGHT ZORO
do u not consider frontend swe?
Did Amazon transfer me to APP cuz I’m a freshman or cuz I didn’t do well enough on the OA
idk it donest have the title of SWE
For what? XD
code
dont judge based on title too much lol
note pad code
When I did my final they have their separate link for coding
u think a frontend dev internship could help on resume for future SWE positions than:?
but it was broken
F
why do u care so much abt titel
either way just put sde intern
title*
nothing
thought title mattered like I can put SWE when im a Cashier
going to message robinhood recruiter on linkedin mfers never gave me a response and im done waiting
do it
APP intern is pretty much same as sde
except u get bootcamp
which is more helpful imo
bruh i didnt even get an OA as a sophomore
do you get paid for the bootcamp
I think so
or does the bootcamp happen in the same time as a normal internship
The boot camp is like the first two weeks and still paid
what the bootcamp for @turbid marten
Training or something
oh for AMZ?
They teach you stuff for two weeks before u start
Amazon propel yeah
Did u interview yet?
It was about reordering segments or something
Yeah AWS example
I got like 11/13 cases but I used lists 💀💀💀
W
one of my friends got waitlisted for propel too
Nah I mean what day did u schedule ur interview for
W
clean fit in the pfp
interview
amazon final
amazon I think
good luck
good luck
be like me and get easier than 2sum for final
@golden sandal im not answering any questions abt amazon

time to start removing
smoke 💨
Add me frien
db or asana
Pain
anyone finished final round (hm) for stripe? pls dm
but im 90% sure i wont remember what i did for the OA
and now i gotta figure it out with my shitty commenting
over a month ago
its gonna be such a sadge moment if they actually ask
to review OA
thats what im taking
its the phone call
like 1 hour call right?
wait who got rejected on DataBricks
yessir
thank
Did u do the Mathworks technical?
And when’d u hear back for final round
no thast the one im taking
yea i keep forgetting, im so used to calling technical final round
its cuz its an HM round right, so isnt it really jsut a formality?
Nah u can definitely get rejected by hm
wait damn
o h
Day 1.2 million of asking if anyone in here has interviewed w SIG for SWE intern
:kermitcry: :kermitcry: :kermitcry: :kermitcry:


Did you do perfect on the Mathwork OA?
honestly i dont even remember anymore
ive taken too many OAs to remember what is what
I'm almost at that point too haha
I fucked up a question, surprised I moved on
HE ALIVE HE ALIVE HE ALIVE
Drake 

why s ad
how 3 2 0
maybe but it's like the HireVue cringe
lemme dm you
oa
yeah I think it's a filter, auto HireVue
I did bb on-site a week ago anybody know the usual timeline to get the final hm round invite?
anyone know how to prepare for splunk interviews? I wanna know how to best prepare and any advice would be greatly appreciated
YUH
Where. Is. My. Msft. Offer.
Is there a private discord/WhatsApp/telegram group for Palantir 2023 interns?
mf said telegram group
why tf would i ever use telegram
it's big in india
i only use telegram for drugs
or smth
ik ppl use it for cheating in codeforces
wait it might be big in russia actually
ok now stfu
is cs oversaturated 🤔
everyone is doing cs, we are all going to be janitors in a few years
krishna resisting the urge of repeatedly posting the same copy pasta 13 times back to back
This Discord can be extremely helpful at times which is why I’ve stayed in it but holy hell can it get annoying at others. It’s like once or twice a day we have to read a stupid post about “Am I the only one who doesn’t wanna work at FAANG?”, “Is CS oversaturated”, or “which offer is better, Jane Street or Optiver”. For the love of God can you people pls shut the hell up 😭. It’s so damn annoying.
should I do rh interview 
The man was hella cool and dope w it
I’ve retired from interviewing 
Wagon man!!!
hello 
yeah
Not me trying to learn all of matlab so that I don’t get fucked in this Mathworks phone
gg yall, it's over
how was google oa
Me too but then I got Auto OAs 😌 this made me happier
cracked
u do it?
Except i started talking about how we would cache our results in a bigger system
And he said just focus on the case for one node
me out here
I did the problem well
but idk
probably relatively soon?
yeah i hope so
they were rly bakced up
i hope they just send me oa
Like i kept having to reschedule over a week out
ive applied over two months ago
Idk
i think i addressed the follow ups before writing any code lol
just make sure u did well on LP
Yeah i was kidding
lmaooo
it was 10:30 by the time we started doing the technical question so there wasnt even time
for a 2nd
yes
3 lps and follow up questions on those
i think i did pretty well on the Lps actually
if anything i overcomplicated the technical question by trying to address follow ups before they were asked
Lol
i need the offer first

i dont even mind
maybe i will have a goku moment later if i got placed at a bad spot and start stressing about that
good
i think
theres been non technical jobs in the past though where i thought i did super well and got rejected
and where i thought i did shit and got the job
so idk
🤝
yea cause u wanna ask me what the questions were
like a month ago
i got the survey a month ago, got the confirmation a day later, but then rescheduled twice
how hard was it like med graph or
Hi I have one question, is citsec and cit different pipelines?
grats btw on offer
if someone does !process amazon oa
let me find a leetcode analogous problem
bet
it wasnt lc like some other people got
like half of the problem was realizing what it was asking
bruuuuuh frrrrrr
i be gettin dm's lmfao
god thats the worst just let me come up with a solution
not about to just randomly appear in some guys dm's when they could be busy
might as well ask in here more people more opinions
sheesh
got a karat oa for intuit, wtf is a karat

Might have to call your mother
bruuuh
I think can someone else try it
im worried that i will get rejected for talking about memoization before solving the basic problem
Your welcome James harden
lmao
bro your good
wait fr
@jaunty cove GOAT??
guys the director of product i interviewed with at microsoft just sent me "i enjoyed meeting you, we'll be in contact soon"
is this an offer
whatcha say
sayyyy
but like
what did i say or him
anyone else been waiting over a month for amazon oa lol
dang. couple years ago they sent me it in january so maybe it'll be a repeat of that
fck
amazon will never respond to me 😩
im tweaking
gapped
cause i took a lot of adderall
i got rejected 30 min after Stripe phone and i solved 3 parts with good quality
ig there was a 4rth part
wdym processes?
Anyone heard back from LinkedIn after final done last week?
does anyone know paypal intern pay
Me when I see Paypal Intern pay:
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/496434200509939734/1031456594178883624/unknown.png?width=576&height=670
what are some behavior interview questions I should study for?
Tell us about a time that you failed
levles says 51, but 2022 in lower col was like 35
oh i have a good one for that
oh yea lol
wait idk what phone is
@honest spire
like when u actually talk to recruiter?
on a video call?
tried my heart out studying for the A on the final in discrete math but it wasnt enoufh
oh yeah those are all phone
tiktok interview tmr
and samsara happened last week
but all first round
🥲
discrete was awesome
really loved that class
should we be accepting 2 offers and reneging later cuz of the state of the economy
bruh what is this
Big q
Yeah they’re only hiring idiots
if it makes you feel better about your offer, i got ghosted by amazon
also stop trolling
let’s gooo imc finally rejected me
gg
i ghosted their oa
gg
Banning is also fun
agreed
wym
it’s a song
u didnt do the oa?
Simps started asking for it pinging mods and we got fed up
ong
Yes but he is saying that if ur at amazon u are a bottom tier waterloo student which is still better than top tier berkeley btw
that phrase reminds me of Replay
i only read facts
Bottom tier MIT is clearly a fun person to be around i love those guys
mit seems cool
no i know, it was two separate statements
most people dont know or care about that
cuz watcha say reminded me of Iyaz cuz he produced derulo's music
most people who arent in the know see google and amazon the way we see hrt @sinful locust
Jane Street is the dream bcz their logo looks cool
i see amazon as a way of breaking into tech in general
Js best quant logo tbh
js logo goes the hardest
what no
i have zero interest of working in quant
🐐
what non quant beats them?
It’s a minimalist dream
or optiver
Citadel logos look bland
lmao cs majors drooling over quant even though avg person don’t know what it is
optiver is ok, but js logo on merch just goes so hard
Yeah but i cant tell u what i got asked
lol
i love quant
would it be too pretentious to make my entire wardrobe free career fair shirts?
most fashionable CS major
I like datadog and atlassian logo,
i love YOU
what swag they give u
id like to work for a quant fund as a swe or a data scientist perhaps, dont think i ever wanna be a "quant" tho
none yet
thx papi
I like ❄️
I think roach labs logo is ALMOST perfect
mr caspian 

it looks p good actually 😭
yo
its one of the nicest logos ngl
data dog pretty good
the pay tho
anyone here intern at apple?
js beats them all imo
imagine having a jane street shirt 😭
js reminds me of lego starwars circle motorcycle minigame
swe pay at places like citadel imo is more than enough for my needs

Crocs with JS logo -> girls will fall for you 😌
and goals in life
Anyone who have given the PayPal oa and received the interview link?
i have two 😭 i wore the highest quality one weekly last yr
😭 tryna be like u
where do u even get one???
ye
an hour ago
math competitions?
bruh yall be the biggest feens for quant
id get imposter syndrome wearing that cuz i dont understand the math on it
conferences and their fly in programmes
i got the oa an hour ago. havent did it
i have a friend who did that at my school
ill ask if i can buy a jane street shirt off them
Cost: $ 100k
Company?
second spectrum
how many of each lc difficulty
lowkey interested cuz i wanna do nba tracking shit
Pretty easy
Wait lemme find the questions
i hear the paypal oa is super easy
someone ik finished both in 6 minutes
with AC
track anthony davis
easiest job on the planet
lol
One was this @proud crag
no point in tracking someone who's always on the injury roster
literal constant
that's the joke
lmao
screw imc
screw imc
i did their stupid video oa and got rejected
they have 2 OA
one is leetcode
and one is like a hirevue but it also asks some technical questions
this has to be n^2 worst case right?
if my interviewer ever hits me with a heehee im literally disconnecting and withdrawing
yea some interviewers are so awkward
like they don't say anything so i have no idea how it's going
no
my bad i misunderstood
my karat interviewer was on tiktok and every time i asked him for clarification or something he would just repeat the instructions
acceptable
CS kids crying in fear rn
No, you have to do it in O(nlogn) max

when did u apply
soon there will be behavioral leetcode
whats up?
october 2
Yeah, limits were 10^5, so sorting works ig
im ngl
having to review ur OA
is the worst thing i could have to do
like what u want me to say bro, i literally forgor
just say skill issue
trueeeeeee
"yea i cant read my own code frankly, idk what i was thinking but it worked"
can i have the coding question plz now
Tell me about yourself in O(1) time
I
HOW ARE YOUUU
Did anyone get some sort of information request from addepar?
Nope
hello thereee. good hbu?
GOOOOOD HBU? haha
I’d describe it as a wealth management platform startup (idk if they’re unicorn yet)
Yea
people who made a devops dashboard at meta internship last year are more qualified
Mb

what is the devops dashboard at meta
to 2 different roles
they want u bad bro
they want u
no they dont
i got like 2 out of 13 problems right on the swe oa
Wtf is a quant if not trader or swe
i never applied to qr
WHAT THE FUCK
didnt u AK the TikTok oa too 💀
yes
it's over for me
there were 10 questions about advanced C++ topics and then 2 or 3 lc med/hard
they gave u 13 LC hards
No
oh
snowflake and akuna hardest OA's cause i cant use python 
not for OAs
cause they are adjusted by language
for timing
easier to write a fast solution in python
C++ is legit crap unless ur sweaty
i like python cuz its easy to do complex shit with it
C++ does not have @cache
Said no one ever
if you call a function with the @jolly spade decorator above it
they are sending out OAs?
with the same parameters twice
idk, it's all i use
the second time, it doesnt perform any work
it just returns the same value as the first time
so its easy memoization
... so just built in memoization 😭
solve DP hards in 30 seconds
feels bad for cache dude
i mean, u can just make it urself too TBH
DP hard
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i couldnt figure out how to make a 2d hashmap without looking up documentation because of typing
Lol
oh yeah making a 2D hashmap is kinda hard
i started the OA and only realized afterwards that python wasnt avaialble
Gl I dipped on it cuz it they reason
yea
it is what it is tho
and the types are not just like the value
its like a rvalue reference to a key value pair
or something weird
C++ 💀💀
and i was trying to use auto to no avail
good luck
thanks
This won’t work in the way u think
i really like the whole & and *
and i like the syntax
i dont trust myself with C++
i just use it bcz it's all ik
tho,,, idk how to develop with it
True but the memory safety raw pointers way too much wrong wit it u have to be RLY sweaty to use C++ well
i develop only in python
My entire DS n Algo classes were in C++ I k the pain 💀
i dont use it well, i only use C++ for codeforces/leetcode/etc.
Unless ur William Lin
I used too but I got fed up wit using it for OAs kept failing
Yea that’s where my point comes in like they have added like 50 somewhat good features to compensate for the shit features now
So u have to be rly good to k how to use it
no
once it's fully out and adopted
can’t wait for discord to cease to exist
I feel like it a hyped campaign
I think i should leave this discord
Ok ban
for amz?
no not again
yeah
😢
U can untinstall if u want it to not exist for h
No one stopping u
Can AI’s leave this discord
it’s a joke king

?avatar @mystic depot
Ah waitlising already? My recruiter just said there's only a few position left but still encouraged me to do phone this week.
citsec vs databricks

?avatar @slow timber
how do you start a club, wanna start a software engineering club
I ask my only friend to join it and then they ask their only friend to join and so on
Kinda like a linked list where you can only get to someone one at a time💀
for what company?
guys js or hrt pls help me decide :((((
akuna trading
no i figured it out later
no i assume
the first one was math stuff
quant and swe are coding questions
trader and quant trader are both mentla math i think
i got the sequences and stuff one first
this is another one
quant trader has a 2nd oa for c oding apparently
i applied to qt, got rejected, then applied to non quant but still trader and they floated me to 2nd round
so i assume the qt and t have same oa?
the website shows different
pm i guess
someone @ me
new experience
oh i get it
if you know what a swe does and you're there as a swe, idk if you'd get too much
Akuna
?avatar @scenic sluice
the quant trading coding assessment was so much easier cause i could use python
i wish i could apply a second time but they prolly dont let u
Can the real colin davis step forward
why is cold emailing not working
i think ive sent out 300 smh
I thought u got five rings or have I been trolled

bruh it was a joke
that is surprising tbh
bichotaso, what college do u actually go to
i guess timing could matter, i suppose it depends on how busy the persons inbox is. i guess its also possible u may have emailed 300 people and got ghosted 300 times. seems hard to believe tho so its def weird
can someone explain to me the point of putting ur processes in the channeL?
what does it do?
how are u getting the emails, hunter io?
bragging rights
i have my own scraper
mit why
yooo mans cracked 
oh
