fr

when I become 18 I will probably still be called no life high schooler
even tho I will be in uni
@spice notch how’s G
😔
DUCC LEFT
this mf hates me for 0 reason L
ok
am I?
are you? 👀
Hmmmmmmmm
yeah they do a bowel test at the end
bro i got waitlisted by the MLH fellowship last year 😭
writing your name in the death note
so far it seems like its only for canada
Should I put classes that I'll be taking on my resume? (Like classes I'll take next semester--before the internship starts)
are you applying to places
Yes
zon
ik someone who was waitlisted for job
dw just wait for the waves of reneges
is there any way to get an OA through recruiter
like is it even possible
youre kidding
i literally wouldnt have been waitlisted if i got redcheduled twice
If you apply and then email
if i didnt get rescheduked
It worked for my friend
really
who do u email and what
like all the students programs recruiters i email don’t respond
😂
pain hub

Well not email he messaged the lead recruiter for student programs Canada
On LinkedIn
To expedite his process
like with what validation lol
they can’t just expedite snyonr
like could u say u have deadline
imma try that
If they like your LinkedIn/resume then sure but I think he said he was interviewing with other companies or something
ohh
i mean doesn’t hurt to try
i’ll just email 100 students program recruiters
🥱
i reneged both
imagine having enough offers to renege
@sinful locust how did you prepare for j
just answer the questions they ask you
that only gets you c qr
dont u get blacklisted from the industyr if u renege?
emphasis on canada
only if youre bad\
if youre good then the companies will still want you
is C full
fr
how long does citadel take to reach back after OA
already done smh
i got someone to respond an hour ago
might interview with him
his team is fitness+ ML
he benches 522
1 day
Actually?
no
have u ever been asked about the wembenyama algorithm in an interview
@sinful locust has been
Yeah
really
lowkey wembenyama overrated
bro someone today asked me to code up the vucevic algorithm
shit was crazy
he’s like tacko fall
Vucevic algorithm washed
wembenyama is next chet
chet has some skills but no way will he be able to use them if he doesn't bulk up
if chet bulks up he'll basically just end up being nothing
chet needs to stay the way he is
and never play cuz lemickey walking next to him is apparently enough to break his foot
ye
same questions for everyone
well everyone ik got the same ones
o
this zetamac is pretty fun im ngl
wait i thought coconut got banned?
also is the bloomberg tech chat just like a conversation or is a screen?
ah
im interviewing for fun now
don't want bloomberg
oh
you're in seattle?
99%?
why are u so sure?
nothin makes u that special compared to other interns
wait have they told you you got it?
so student programs actually said yes
still 50 then
ight that does not mean 99%
^
they dont care about reason
u can tell em its a family issue and they'll still say no
i just said i want to stay in nyc
i smell cap
even then im pretty sure nyc is full
esp since they are starting to waitlist
NOOOO
L bozo
so im hella sure ur not getting new york
LMAO
i gotta stay in the server
Lmao
he aced burst balloons
the thing is that since its waitlisted so early ppl can still renege
🤣
i had to write a wordle clone 
its been below 50% the whole time
colin had worse luck than me 
what emails are they getitng
and i had sys design
ooh num islands is a nice problem
problem that taught me dfs
in matricies
interesting followup
I didnt get burst balloons
does anyone with linkedin nyc know if we can switch to nyc office? i got an offer for sunnyvale but would prefer nyc
ok ur still at 50%
i got a pretty easy problem
u cant sue over a location dawg
oh it was just similar to burst?
no i dont remember saying i got that
not saying it isn't but i think nyc would be more fun for a summer
what question did you get?
mf thinks he found the ultimate loophole
wait did you threaten to sue over location
i dont rlly give a shit about it
Oof, passed 11/15 test cases for the 2nd question on Amazon OA, am I insta-rejected?
no lol
errichto discord server is really just a codeforces server
he's goated
he had the full right answer for q2
just didn't manage to run it
that's why
most people with 14/30 wouldn't get past
what faang does to a man bro
I did? I've got too many dms so I prolly forgor
stfu
be like me and don't take it
its a new one this week
have people moved on with tiktok after oa btw?
lmk if coconut is being obnoxious 
is the new tiktok oa doable btw?
might try it later
apparently they sent out a diff oa
place a mod moratorium on coconut i dont want him banned before i see him getting counter sued and his offer rescined by amazon
hi
meta is lowkey a very scary place to work
u dont need to get all to pass
someone said they got a very common graph question on the tiktok oa
no return is not a vibe
for this week
bruh they want u fr
that is very chill
no it was easy, im just done for the season
also happy you got your choice btw
ty
roblox over all the others ngl
what are AVs?
Cruise isnt better than roblox
just interviewing for fun
Lowk I agree with Cruise
has anyone already interviewed at tiktok? from what ive heard it's like brief behavorial then straight into technical
they ask you if you like working 12 hour shifts
no lol
no, just first round technical 🥲
@sleek pike what makes you want to work with autonomous vehicles?
im so confused by everything
OH THAKN GOD
THANK JESUS
🙏
it's just gonna be like a medium right?? ...
lmaooooo
@sleek pike the reality of it is that you’re at cruise or roblox for 3 months, u gotta think of ur trajectory after not necessarily just pay
nobody ik got interviews at my school besides me and i’m at a msft target (at least last year)
my research lead said cruise was the best place in terms of reaching full autonomous driving first
He worked there
^
Take whatever you’re more interested in long term
it’s ssimple really
Yea def interview with them
Cruise is very very solid
Cruise pays well
For NG
accept the day before!
(if ur scared that'll happen)
Do you want Roblox FT?
for your own mental health i think you should really consider accepting the roblox offer
with companies like cruise and roblox
lmao yea
don’t you want AV tho
does rh allow to move from summer > fall ?
one in the hand is worth two in the bush
I would renege google in a heartbeat if I get something way better if i don’t care about google full time
Now if you’re thinking long term like 10+ years from now idk then
nah
Cause 2s WLB seems like king
Idk the point is you don’t care if you don’t want to go there full time anyway
no its not
you have a company that you know you would like interning at
but by pursing the other companies and not accepting roblox you're risking the roblox offer as well as the chance that you might not get the other offers
Also it said on the email that camera is required but it was just a Hackerrank without camera access (my camera did not have the light on)
no usually if they give out offers, its with the expectation you will accept it
its ok plenty of other companies
lol no shit
i really doubt it would disappear if you waited until the deadline, but i wouldnt wait until the day of the deadline i would accept the day before at the latest imo
yea im trying to get riot rn cuz thats the only big company im really in the late stages with
Exactly choose what benefits you best
If you feel like you can confidently get Criise i’d delay
If not then i’d accept and go from there
Yeah
And it seems like you don’t care much for going there full time
if you do then that’s the issue
Some companies do that
G will rescind offer if you renege for G
and G finds out
that is
thats so petty
It’s dumb
another reason not to work at G
@sinful locust stop
better hope G don’t find out
how would google find out?
There’s a million ways
you were ghost reacting
it’s not me
unless it’s rigby
no lifer
lmao
Is this normal lol
proof?
ok but then @sleek pike just decide for yourself, do you thinkg you can get cruise
yes or no
if yes, then let roblox expire and focus entirely on cruise
if no, accept roblox
and see how it goes with cruise
and then reevaluate
doesnt matter, you gotta choose what you think you are capable of
you've reneged before its not hard
So accept the day before at the latest
just accept and if u get and want cruise then take it?
i accepted fidelity return yesterday even tho if i get anything else im probably reneging
its just insurance
no, i have a calculus test that i have not studied for tommorow
not really, im aiming for something higher
and considering im a sophomore, ill prob get something better
by senior year
yea
whose contact info at a company should we give for a background check?
wdym
manager
then i would recommend accepting roblox, trying cruise and expecting to go with roblox unless u get through cruise entirely
I agree
ok thanks
Manager first tho
Cause it could be a recommendation thing
2 bucks big deal
2s pays juniors 5 bucks more according to @inner kernel
its undergrad vs masters not soph vs junior
thought it was 62 vs 64
ok but the outcome is the same
Did you have a recruiter screen/call?
well email your recruiter with these questions then
just go through the process and find out
like stressing over this when you havent found the answers is dumb
@sinful locust when u moving in next sem
ur just ruining ur mental health
january? wdym?
idk where yet am figuring stuff out
How long did it take to get results after databricks final?
databricjs is full
isn’t JS recurring also 350
lol
Wlb is questionable everywhere
for 2s id take that lowkey
Cit is 350 recurring
Let's go just got Google
pog
congrats
for quant u csnt
well non quant u can
Do uk what js recurring is?
quant they’ll ask
Wait guys, I also got hrt. Do I go Google or hrt
depends on college
u get a different gpa
like when i transferred, i just have a diff gpa for my new college
i’m sure there’s some upper limits right
like based off years of experience or something
idk
but yeah if you get JS ig you just go
i lowkey have D's and Fs this semester
i need to start grinding
i keep forgetting to submit shit
thats reasonable
i think calc 3 will kill my gpa
@uneven crane are u a philosophy majr
Mfs named praxis always study philosophy
i might get shafted by my midterms this quarter even though im studying rly hard, i cant tell
Ok
Can anyone do my convex assignment here
you shouldn’t pass this up is all we’re saying
lol
@inner kernel swe at citadel?
withdrawing from classes or failing them and graduating late is different than graduating late cause u were interning at some of the coolest companies out htere
is one significantly better than the other? assuming they are fine with either ft
no point
is the work all the same lol
besides pay
yea i’m assuming you’d want 2s if you prio wlb
priority queue
if any of you guys have background in low latency c++ (ex-quant background ideal), have a really solid position for you. pretty sure the pay is better than all quant
also, you can always apply ng processes if you want to get into a specific firm
but choose the best one for you this summer and use that one
dont delay
deepmind yes
yes
they got fall interns thats dope
How many places u recruit with?
if u go to top school they might be more lenient on gpa
yes
but not the other way around
yes
harvard inflation so good

average gpa 3.8 or sonething
IIT ripe
rope
lol
yeah government
do yk any politicnas skids
probably tons
obv ye
barron trump lol
probably
why not
u didn’t get rj smh
no
swe worth too
ye
you can do that?
yea but prolly have to reinterview right
probably
yes
work seems more interesting than quant
prestige comes from exactly that
working with smart people
yeah
working with a select few group of people
on cool research
HRT AI labs also good
its kinda like working at OpenAI right now
you’re working with select few ppl at quant too
it’s that good?
but MAth + AI >>>>
openai goated
path ai
the work, you have good wlb, you have interesting ass projects, basically free reign, and its known by everyone as a super coveted place to work at
yeah, considered a good filter. OpenAI has some of the smartest founders and engineers working there
some of my friends left their own company to work there lol
i think pay is top notch too
for deepmind?
anyways
if you guys want to work with really smart ppl too
is it actually
imma drop a link
i’ve heard 400-500k
i thought it was amazon level comp
is L4 starting position
these salaries were in line with what others told me about deepmind
the higher ones seem insane
but even then , Deepmind is goated
I know a few ppl at Facebook, and the comp just abt lines up
except equity down bad
ya lmao

anyways if you want true cash go be a trader
ye
if you want true cash make a startup
lol it’s not that easy
or nft rug pull
why
neither is being a trader
it’s much easier
nft rug pull
then why have u been gunning quant
you have to work to get the audience to rug pull
no but there’s no guarantees on startups, if you’re a trader you make money instantly (before you get fired or stay)
especially if you’re bootstrapped
twitter, facebook and google ads
toss in tiktok in there too and we golden
ah fair
^
Rookie nums
you did it all in like a summer too
nah you did more than that
don't pretend you weren't grinding
very disingenuous
I already did but i think they are unethical
Declined all quants
did they accept u
i thought you neetcode 150 implied only 150
if u think meta is more ethical than quant
oh boy
i'd decline quant for google
Meta is changing da world making it possible to message ur grannie in the Caribbean after a hurricane
that statement makes no sense

no they’re starting genocides
and ruining the world
meanwhile quant is making rich peopke richer
Get u a company that does both
facts
Genocides and connecting hearts n minds
If u believe flow of money in quants is zero sum then it’s unethical. The only argument i can think of, but truth is they all suck just get da bag
join rentech
smh
o shit are u quarter system or semester system
tryna figure out if databricks is closed for everyone or j semester system
mm kinda fucked had my em interview v recently

gdi this is so sad
wait so @sinful locust the hm didn't give feedback to the recruiter and u j got waitlisted?
google 
also db wlb kinda sus
goog's been my end goal for a while now + more range of cooler teams
tho I did like the runtime org at db
spoken like a true non grass toucher
interesting work, reputable company
lots of interesting work to be done at goog too 
yeah ofc
I just go where the caltech and harvey mudd kids go because they know best
Better than mit berk waterloo
search infra promo path is proven to be v fast too 
👍
search infra is sre no?
the one that has coding and shit too?
or the one that says distributed systems etc
yeah like what langauges you know etc
Does Bolt hire interns?

the former is swe at search infra etc and the latter is sre
lol this is exaggeration right
yes
T10 are cash cow
damn i have 2 IEEE am i behind
research experience + 1-3 papers or a publish in a big journal is very good
do they actually read these papers or is it more conference based
unis that are higher than third but less than second aren't showing up
you gotta individually add them
How prestigious is the mail route?
has cockroach responded to anyone btw?
me

:zenit_love_juda:

brah idk i submitted that shit forever ago
i just bombed my codesignal
for 3 companies
i did 1st question in 5 miunutes
2nd question almost did in 5 minutes
but it don't work
i debugged for 30 minutes
by the 3rd question i had given up

wtf a company has a subreddit for employees
anyone know if databricks does winter/fall internships?
They do winter
Should I “exaggerate” my 3.3 gpa to like a 3.5 if I’m not getting any word back from top companies and I have previous software engineering experience at other very well known companies - in short am I not beating resume scans?
Massively losing hope at getting an offer to work somewhere else
No… it’d be a self-calculated GPA based on classes in major and related to job description… as that’s the excuse that has allowed people I literally know to get away with it
@novel ledge any advice then on other things it could be?
might be experience, grad date, idk
I have in past many times - I’ve gotten constructive feedback
could also just be unlucky
there are a lot of unknown factors
but to your original question its def not gpa
@muted summit I’m starting to feel like that could be a very viable factor
i dont have my gpa on my resume and from what ive heard from other people and recruiters, they dont give a shit
someone told me to leave your GPA off unless its 4.0 because you dont want to give the recruiter the chance to reject you because of your GPA lol
that might be an extreme, but I heard that from someone who attended a google 1 on 1
@muted summit have you had success w/ FAANG without a gpa listed
@muted summit no I’ve totally heard the same thing like unless your GPA is 3.8
yeah im in pipeline
My referrals feel so wasted
my gpa is like 3.4 or something but i leave it off
Has Spotify released their internships
i dont think so for spotify
@novel ledge thanks
i also heard they only hire like 2 interns
I totally expected to come on here and just be fed shit but for once the internet is wholesome
is it harder to get offer or even interviews this year than last?
yea
smh the year I decide to start 😭
I was able to get OA/interviews applying over winter break for the same companies that are almost done recruiting
dmannn
no dont think that

4.0 and I didn’t know I have to mention it in my CV 😅
nope i have a return offer from my company over the summer i think
For real it’s a numbers game. I hate to say it but the only way to ensure success is to submit applications until your fingers are numb
wednesday i have amazon and friday i have my 3rd google interview
so im just 
thats how it is
wow tahts OP
Amazon and Google referrals and never heard back 🦶🔫
Good luck @muted summit
fr 😭
Good luck @muted summit
^ same type beat. Im tryna see that
dm ok thx
have u gotten offers?
@wary harbor return offers only
ru full time?
or return offer as intern
Im grad year 2024
You’ll be fine
@knotty breach when was ur first intern
My buddy with no internship experience just got Amazon SDE intern in Arlington and I can’t get shit
lmao same 💀
keana can i see ur resume too if u dont mind
imm tryna get inspiration
🤩
@wary harbor got u
Could my chances of getting internships be hurt by the fact that i live in New Jersey and am solely applying to position in Bay Area+/Seattle/ west coast
i did my linkedin final last week
do u guys think its worth to tell my recruiter that i have deadline in 2 weeks?
or is 2 weeks too far out to matter
@wary whale still 27K
@hardy patrol was waiting for someone to say it
do u know if winter's full?
as soon as i get faang im dipping from the rat race i just want to fish
Databricks full 😭
full
yup
Might be
Oh after oa
Which role?
if this is mobile, I’m gonna cry
Seattle role filled up
Nah I hope not
I’m gonna cry
I really want to get LinkedIn
I’m final with them rn
bruh watch our luck lol
I heard LinkedIn is easy or hard
Which role r u going for
wooo
I’m mobile
prayge for our offers
Infra backend
sorry dude I took the last role
just kidding i think I fucked my coding interview so I think you might have a chance
dm him
Yo, does anyone know how long does G take to reply after the OA?
nah i think they mean google
Yes
anyone interviewed for dataiku ?
@halcyon wedge zurich still no OAs 
Is Amazon still hiring summer 2023 internships
yea I think so but theyre super backlogged @novel lily
If you apply now, might not get OA for a couple weeks -- they do the hiring process until April if i remember right
I dont think I've ever been more degraded than trying to get a summer internship this yr
How long after an interview should one typically expect an update?
ppl from 2 months ago still havent gotten oa lmfao
lol
depends on the company
which one?
@hearty river
ADP lol
bruh are you serious
I stg I talked to a couple people that got it after a few weeks and they applied a month ago
I applied the day the application came out but when
I took OA my friends decided to surprise me and ruined it lol
So I reapplied with different email and stuff a week ago hoping for the best
absolute L for me

@safe elbow whend u apply
is MLE at smaller company worth over big N regular swe
idk about that
MLE skills aren’t necessarily all ML
and SWE can overlap
so i’d go for name recognition especially if you don’t have it alr
like id rather get into twitter general
and do ml work
or google but ai/ml team placement
quant
i guess, how much data work is QT
depends on firm but data science is used
especially when ur QR
oh yeah qr a lot
@sinful locust
@snow sierra @sleek pike Yes i confirm its an offer call, carissa emailed me with "offer call" in the subject
doesn’t amazon merge accounts tho?
doesnt look like it did for me, but maybe im wrong
For anyone who’s had Imc phone how long did it last
pog
did anyone receive the paypal recruiter email and not receive the oa?
time to apply again then 🫡
i got both
should have come like 10=15 min after the first email
if you didnt get it, you can try emailing the recruiter
But the email stated that ‘do not reply.. this inbox isn’t being monitored’ 😬
godspeed brother
rip
😥
stalk them on linkedin or something idk
🥲
Damn my Optiver phone got cancelled cause they full
Location?
US
