[somber solstice]

especially since i feel like im hearing more LC hards in interviews

[plain light]

Hey has anyone done the PayPal oa recently?

[somber solstice]

i have not personally, but i hear it's easy af

[plain light]

Got it, thanks!

[somber solstice]

hmm... i think so sadly...

the sad reality

good job if you are

[elfin adder]

average cs major

you cant kill me

i know

you cant

:zenit_cuddle_salat:

[sinful locust]

yep

congrats btw

im still debating amazon vs duo

[hollow field]

3

I think

Did u have leetcode in first round

Nvm then idk

[warped dagger]

salat 🌊 asks: test

[frigid gate]

amz

brand name

[warped dagger]

thatpersonperson asks: Roblox (👍) or Duolingo (👎)

[hollow field]

R u fulltime

I have no clue what process u have

[halcyon wedge]

locations?

Congrats on duo tho

[hollow field]

No 😂

Just that process I've heard was tech chat, virtual onsite, and hr roubd

2 hours of lc rounds I think

[halcyon wedge]

Ngl, both are dope

I got mixed feeling on Roblox. I know it's seen as prestigious, but I have a hard time seeing it that way lmao

I'm biased

[sick oar]

Not a bad thought tbh

Prestige within this community != general prestige

[halcyon wedge]

Yeah, that's kinda the backing behind my thoughts

[sinful locust]

😛

[hollow field]

Tbh idk much about bloomberg other than what the process is

[sick oar]

jane street = 🐐 here, but in the real world, jane street swe would look like just any other random company

and a recruiter would tell you the tech stack sucks and you have no chance at a job

[ivory ocean]

No I’d imagine FAANG would know

[sick oar]

again, you'd imagine. that doesn't make it true

faang recruiters are just normal people lmaooo

[halcyon wedge]

Btw, has anyone taken Palantir's recruiter call?

[ivory ocean]

Is HFT then transfer to FAANG once you’re exhausted not a good move

[halcyon wedge]

Passed technical karat and I'm having that next week

[sick oar]

it is but you won't have 100% call back to faang like you would with another faang/big N

[ivory ocean]

Yeah like my friend who doesn’t even wanna look for internships yet knew about Jane street

And he’s not even on the sub or anything

[sick oar]

that is so anecdotal

nobody i know knows about jane street

unless they're in the recruiting scene

ok and if u go to hypsm that makes sense

[halcyon wedge]

Is your school on jane street?

[sinful locust]

Probably choose roblox for intern; focus on impact more for FT if that is an important factor.

Good choice to have though

[sick oar]

L

[clear oxide]

fuck riot man

[sinful locust]

yo

[clear oxide]

why the fuck do they have so many behavioral rounds

[sinful locust]

WARRIORS

[clear oxide]

value A

value B

😡

[candid umbra]

anyone know anything about confluent OA

i just got it

[sinful locust]

its easy

thats all ik

[ivory ocean]

Anecdotal evidence is still evidence, it’s considered admissible in several sciences

[sick oar]

yes a single data point is so reliable

[ivory ocean]

Well we have several people in here saying everyone they know knows about it

[sinful locust]

Thank you

[halcyon wedge]

It depends on what you value. For me location weighs in quite a lot, and it's not like Duo isn't prestigious

[sinful locust]

its not a hedgefund

it is a trading firm

[loud axle]

did u get the hackerrank link too ; mine hasnt showed up but i got the email from confluent

[halcyon wedge]

But, given your career aspirations, I'd think Roblox better aligns with your goals

[sinful locust]

proprietary

but do they know its not a hedgefund?

💀

[sick oar]

Selection bias my dude

[sinful locust]

@sleek pike what u typin

[sick oar]

I bet you your average person on the street does not know "Jane Street"

[woeful lynx]

Pun intended?

[sinful locust]

Yeah i did not consider the team matching issue, which maybe tilts towards Duo

I don't want to be working on Frontend at amazon lol

And agreed on the impact

[sinful locust]

center div

[north portal]

after many days of waiting, hoping there was even the slightest of chances, my dream has been crushed

[sinful locust]

Not duolingo, not initially

Cant speak to roblox

[rugged knoll]

How long after Goldman HireVue interview do they respond back?

[sinful locust]

Ghost

i got rj after perfect

Yea but that's still good

[random mauve]

Is confluent oa auto?

[sinful locust]

idk

could just be someone lying

2.7 mil in 2 years seems pretty damn high

[candid umbra]

oh i only got the notification

[sinful locust]

2.7 mil in 5+ years maybe less so

[candid umbra]

not the actually HR

[random mauve]

Is confluent oa auto?

[sinful locust]

lol @sleek pike you know who tweeted that right?

[finite phoenix]

Just got confluent OA as well

[sinful locust]

the one that was on the inside

[random mauve]

Is it auto?

[north portal]

i sent in the GCA

[fleet tulip]

O shit I k this guy lolol

[north portal]

i got resume screened, fidelity and state school not enough for sure

[sinful locust]

2.7 mil after 2 years with phd seems p high

wut lol

like if ur head of a team

is that bad

its good right

i wouldnt say quant is happy because it get you money

cant conflate money with happiness

money can be correlated with happiness, but doesnt equal

and what do they think once they hit reality

[scenic sluice]

this tapers off at 70k a year btw

[sinful locust]

it def not the happiest way to live life

[scenic sluice]

after that you get diminishing returns

[sinful locust]

happiest way be a manager at G, work < 30 hours, get paid 500K+

wdym

[scenic sluice]

so as long as you make 70k a year + you can't say that higher TC makes you happy anymore

[sinful locust]

yea cause after that is just material benefits

lol men are not better at math than women

happiness is a state of mind that if you are satisfied with yourself, then nothihng can stop u

yeah he makes no sense ignore him

but im curious what biases does quant have in hiring?

[cedar reef]

NASA supreme morality

[sinful locust]

yeah i wouldnt assume gender is one?

id hope not

[north portal]

i mean at that level, if ur quant level skilled they dont care too much

[sinful locust]

ah

[north portal]

its a meritocracy tbh

[proud whale]

Anyone done nuro technical? Can I pm

[sinful locust]

damn

[scenic sluice]

was he banned lol

he gone

[north portal]

where did he go?

[quaint bolt]

[north portal]

[sinful locust]

@sinful locust

[karmic path]

Is confluent oa

Auto

[sinful locust]

is databricks oa automatic?

[karmic path]

Yes

[past comet]

Its weird that we got HackerRank yesterday and got email from confluent today regarding the hackerrank lol

Should i reschedule my tomorrows karat to today and give it ?

[halcyon wedge]

I think being biased towards smaller companies is a based bias

Bigger companies tend to have more bureaucracy, which sucks

[naive kayak]

anyone heard back from morgan stanley

no way they go through so many hirevues at the same time

[hoary basalt]

yeah they said they r wrapping up hiring for next summer

[full heron]

is doordash worth reneging msft?

didn't do 1 question on the OA but somehow got DD final

[wooden hazel]

[somber solstice]

[wooden shard]

How long after OA u hear back

[jaunty cove]

Incoming microsoft offer

[full heron]

[somber solstice]

DAMN

[full heron]

wayy more people talk about c1 this year than last

[somber solstice]

...

c1 rejected me

😢

i lowkey like doing OAs

[wooden shard]

f i got 11/15 and 15/15 but did not hear back

[verbal iris]

Is it weird to ask a company if my background check was okay

[north portal]

yea cuz C1 screwed up the application process this year by making it hella free

C1 is still a good internship to have

def better than Fidelity and some other companies

[soft basin]

i got resume rejected by dd

[jaunty cove]

I strongly dislike waiting for results on amazon final

[somber solstice]

damn, yeah i got rejected bcz it was full 😭

[loud axle]

for anyone who was wondering before:

reapplying to amazon doesnt work

[somber solstice]

u did the final?? if ng u got waitlisted, if intern u got it fs

[sinful locust]

it does sometimes

[jaunty cove]

Nah bro the other colin got rejected

[loud axle]

oh word?

[jaunty cove]

[somber solstice]

Amazon ghost me, am sadge

[loud axle]

mf they banned my second email, cant even log in lmao

[somber solstice]

lmaooooo

[wooden shard]

i appleid 3 times last year tho

[sinful locust]

theyre really good at merging accs

[loud axle]

nah my main account is fine

[loud axle]

[somber solstice]

gg yall

[sinful locust]

i didn’t

i’m saying it’s hard. but possible

[north portal]

oh ok

[hollow field]

I think they prob merged your account

[north portal]

but my alt is active

on amazon

there is still hope

[sinful locust]

when did u apply

[north portal]

september

[loud axle]

rip getting OA ig

[north portal]

do u get blacklisted if u get merged and shit

or is it just u cant apply this year

[sinful locust]

tf u mean there is still hope u applied so recently ur good lmao

[loud axle]

no

[sinful locust]

no

[hollow field]

Nah nothing happens tbh

[north portal]

no my second app is in september

initial one was in july

[sinful locust]

damn wtf

juy

[loud axle]

yall think they gonna keep C1 interview free next year?

[sinful locust]

mine was in aug

[north portal]

yea probably, too many kids apply

they get hella reneges tho so they will def recruit more kids in a bit

[loud axle]

bless

[north portal]

c1 is stupid

id still take it tho cuz im desperate

plz man just give me a faang

[loud axle]

same

I had final but I had it a couple days post-chemo and fumbled the bag

[north portal]

oh shit

[loud axle]

hoping they open up app in february to recruit more

[north portal]

hope u feeling better tho

[sinful locust]

^

[north portal]

yea same

[sinful locust]

🙏🏼

[loud axle]

thanks kings

[coarse vigil]

fancng

[north portal]

im predicting like a solid 500-600 spots opening up

[loud axle]

this was possibly the most wholesome 5 min ive had on this disc

[north portal]

makes sense

cuz u can always renege but at least accept the offer in hand

i mean i did this with fidelity

[loud axle]

the 60 an hour is prob pretty enticing tbf

[north portal]

i accepted them but if i get Mathworks or Riot, ill drop

[hollow field]

Is mathworks good

I've heard it's kinda wack

[north portal]

c1 pays so much for a company with shit actual pay and slow career growth

[hollow field]

Edg right?

[north portal]

i mean its decent enough, interesting projects

[north portal]

ye

[hollow field]

I will say wlb was rlly nice

[north portal]

also the starting salary is like 120-130k at mathworks

[loud axle]

this

[north portal]

so its decent

[north portal]

yea but fidelity also had good wlb, i dont care about that i just want prestige and faang level comp now

nah, if those offers arent gonna come before ur offer expires take ur offer and see if u actually get the others

i mean idk i heard some companies just dont even care about that

after u get past the initial stage, that shit doesnt do anything for faangs

u will get, manifesting this!

[sinful locust]

im done applying for this cycle

if i dont get anything from out of the places i applied research time

[jaunty cove]

its aboutta be november 1st lol

[sinful locust]

[jaunty cove]

based

[north portal]

no return offer or anything?

[jaunty cove]

i think my manager at my internship thinks i know a lot more about linux and VMs than i realy do

[sinful locust]

i did but wont take

[jaunty cove]

he just told me to start working on a project and set up a VM on my company laptop and i have no idea what im doing

[north portal]

is it not worth to go again tho

experience is experience

[sinful locust]

no

[jaunty cove]

Thats strange

i bet its not a test

Just curious

[somber solstice]

install a oracle vm and an ubuntu disk image (.iso)

then create new Linux vm and choose allocation

on oracle vm

then go to its settings, add drive, add the disk image

boot it, install linux

gg

[jaunty cove]

thanks i asked another coworker and they have a specific one that i should use

[somber solstice]

ahh good luck

[jaunty cove]

ubuntu looks nice i thought it wuold just be a terminal

Lol

[somber solstice]

use native linux

use kubuntu for maximum rice wo using arch

[sinful locust]

Has anyone done Atlassian ML oa

[final cobalt]

I think p important? Not sure what metrics they use

[somber solstice]

THIS WHAT I NEED

[hardy patrol]

does roblox have a minimum gpa

[wooden shard]

if u get amazon are u still gonna recruit

[naive kayak]

does that codesignal hack work where you link a random email to your primary email and then submit that score?

[dusk kayak]

if youre math then qt screens may be even easier

[jaunty cove]

fair point

i didnt make it thru top firm screens

[soft basin]

swe interviews are rng 😐

If I’m being honest

[somber solstice]

yup, my friend got waitlisted too

[soft basin]

tech is fucked if amazon does rescinding offers

i hope they dont tho

[quaint bolt]

Bc A. People aren’t getting nearly as many offers
B. They’d rather go to someplace they know won’t rescind

[soft basin]

i declined c1 for them 😡

[soft basin]

truuuu

good luck waitlist ppl 💀

[jaunty cove]

can i just got

[soft basin]

luckily i got offer in mid august

[sinful locust]

usa isnt waitlist

they have too many spots

[soft basin]

bro reddit is not the only source

[quaint bolt]

hello

[jaunty cove]

i trust that more than

someone on discord said it

[quaint bolt]

Someone I know has been waitlisted for Amazon us

[somber solstice]

ik someone who got waitlisted us from amazon

[quaint bolt]

There you go

[somber solstice]

[jaunty cove]

[somber solstice]

it was for ng

[muted summit]

i got my final in an hour

[jaunty cove]

@quaint bolt

[somber solstice]

tho

[green vigil]

That's hilarious tbh

Waitlisting internships...

I mean with their turnover rate I guess they expect a lot of reneg but damn

[soft basin]

tech market is just bad rn

[uneven sand]

waitlist doesn't always means done hiring

[quaint bolt]

app?

regular swe

[uneven sand]

i think i saw some ng get waitlisted but then get offer a few weeks later

[green vigil]

Waiting for IBM to put up the xblue app still

[somber solstice]

damn

[soft basin]

cope

[uneven sand]

why

app -> ft is allowed

[jaunty cove]

ok

my brain is just coping

this is the kind of shit that makes me feel demotivated

[soft basin]

if yall get waitlisted rn yall should be able to get in imo

however if in january idek by then

[hardy patrol]

you just took final im pretty sure you wont get axed

[jaunty cove]

i think they are waitlisting people after final

[hardy patrol]

why even schedule a final if its full

[uneven sand]

cope

seethe

cry

[hardy patrol]

is there a source or is it one of those "a friend of my friend says"

[jaunty cove]

yes those are the sources

[soft basin]

i already got offer 2 months ago 🤣

[uneven sand]

did you take it

[quaint bolt]

Someone in my class got waitlisted for Amazon us

[uneven sand]

i heard amazon is rescinding offers bc they overfilled

[quaint bolt]

They sent ss

[uneven sand]

they thought people would renege but nobody is

[hardy patrol]

cap1 and now amazon waitlisting me im learning my lesson and applying as soon as apps come out

i have an offer already so its whatever but still

[soft basin]

yeah thats the real lesson

mfs are like gotta make my resume better and its like the beginning of august

[jaunty cove]

die

i didnt even know what an internship was until august 10th

basically

[hardy patrol]

i applied sept thinking i was early 💀

[jaunty cove]

💀

[soft basin]

i started applying late june

cuz last year i got nothing

and this yr i rlly wanted to get somethin

[jaunty cove]

i applied 3 weeks ago and didnt hear back so i doubt it

[hardy patrol]

it paid off

[jaunty cove]

unless its based on the fact you go to a target school in their drop down list

[soft basin]

i dont get target schools

like wtf is the purpose of them its all mid cs

[somber solstice]

i didnt rly know how they worked until around then too 💀

[sinful locust]

not rly

lol

their cs is really good

[jaunty cove]

no

[sinful locust]

compared to avg schools

[soft basin]

my school is considered "target"

but its so mid

[somber solstice]

what school

[soft basin]

ucf

[jaunty cove]

i think arrowstreet was one of the firms that only had like 15 schools on their "choose your school" right

[somber solstice]

ucf is good

[soft basin]

their cs program is ass

[somber solstice]

location is kinda bad

but ucf is good

[soft basin]

location is decent

its also cheap

[jaunty cove]

target is different for different companies

[soft basin]

i only need like 3k a semester for tuition

[jaunty cove]

arrowstreet i think it was just ivy leagues, MIT, CMU gatech and a few more

[soft basin]

i havent learned much from my school

[jaunty cove]

u cant enter your own school

[soft basin]

most of the stuff i taught myself

[hardy patrol]

same

all we did was learn how to print a 5x5 grid of stars in c++

[soft basin]

i taught myself cuz the prof couldnt teach well for the course

[hardy patrol]

thats all

[jaunty cove]

same

[hardy patrol]

i wonder what % of majors at my uni didnt bother with internships

[soft basin]

my school also teaches data structures in C

🤮

[hardy patrol]

we never really talked about it

[wary harbor]

tahts fine my school teaches DSA it in Bits

[sinful locust]

doesnt every good school

[soft basin]

naw like the intro to programming course is also in C

[jaunty cove]

based

thats how it should be imo

[somber solstice]

wtf...

[somber solstice]

this ks based

[jaunty cove]

i started a reddit thread saying "i wish i started programming by leraning C" in cscareerquestions a few months ago and a lot of people argued about it

[soft basin]

so like the engineers who dont wanna program gotta deal with C

[somber solstice]

but ds w/o objects is a bit funny

[jaunty cove]

structs bro

[somber solstice]

struts arent objects

but close enuff ig

[soft basin]

structs are similar to objects

my only issue is dynamic memory allocation

[bold barn]

bruh did you bomb behvaioral?

[soft basin]

its annoying

[jaunty cove]

what is an object thats diferent than struct

[final cobalt]

i think i did alright on behavorial, no cap it was def harder than my typical ones

they asked questions that i def didnt prepare for

[bold barn]

yeah they asked weird questions

[jaunty cove]

i think the difference is semantic more than anything

[bold barn]

but i was able to get through pretty well i think

[final cobalt]

i got the techincal down + the follow up question

but idk my technical interviewer gave weird vibes

[bold barn]

like I had an answer for every behavioral

[final cobalt]

didnt talk much

[bold barn]

and didnt stutter or anything

[final cobalt]

same same

i stuttered uhhh, a bit

oopsies

[coarse vigil]

Damn Amazon and gf reject in a weeek

[bold barn]

[final cobalt]

oh sht, time to tell my recruiter i have a deadline

which i do but it's not until the end of the month

🙏

[somber solstice]

ahhhhh

this is so scary

im literally studying for the behavioral

[bold barn]

only company where behavioral was legit harder than tech

[final cobalt]

LMAOOOO

so true, or maybe im just horrible

at behavorials

[bold barn]

he asked me what new skill ive taught myself in the past 6 months and i told him about how I learned a lot about drafting a fantasy football team

[coarse vigil]

Lollll

[final cobalt]

LOL

[bold barn]

idk if thats bad tho, I feel like thats just as valid as learning react or node or some random ass technology

and I got into the stats of it

[final cobalt]

blanked out for like 20 seconds

[bold barn]

yeah thats a stupid one

bruhhhhhh waht

[hard patio]

Potential Dumb question inbound

[whole anvil]

What are my odds for Roblox?
Technical went 10/10
Behavioral went 4 or 5 out of 10 ? (interviewer seemed disinterested from the start and was 3 mins late)

[bold barn]

odds are 0

[uneven sand]

odds are -1

[hard patio]

Do yall think it’s possible to negotiate internship benefits?

[uneven sand]

depends on the company

[hard patio]

Like i have offers with different benefits but was wondering if I could ask for more benefits as leverage??

[final cobalt]

LMAO this guy also thinks the behavorial was worse than technical

it do be like that

[hard patio]

Especially for relocation

[uneven sand]

a lot of big tech companies don't negotiate intern pay/benefits

[bold barn]

my dad works at roblox he said they sent out a company wide email making fun of you

[final cobalt]

BruH

[whole anvil]

Time to sip on the doomium

[hard patio]

Ah so no point in asking recruiter. Just sort of except it then?

[final cobalt]

how long after final did it take for them to get back to you?

[whole anvil]

Looks like i'll stay strapped to the hopium machine

[uneven sand]

idt it would hurt to try but there's a good chance they just say no to negotiation

[final cobalt]

im like, giga anxious

wtf a day?!

[rancid flume]

what about non-ai/ml teams @ nvidia @simple salmon @jaunty cove

[gentle scroll]

is citadel auto OA?

[simple salmon]

nvidia swe is prestigious from what i know, not many people get in and some of my friends who interned there got responses from most companies

[sinful locust]

nvidia starting to review apps next weel

thats hwat my recruiter said

[gentle scroll]

pretty sure Nvidia has one of the best benefits and wlb known to man

[rancid flume]

y'all fr rn

i thought nvidia ng tc is like rly bad

[gentle scroll]

nah tf

[rancid flume]

am i like tripping or

[north portal]

levels has good tc from what i can tell

[simple salmon]

idk about money but it def has prestige and really fat resume value

[rancid flume]

whats ur opinion on nvidia

[gentle scroll]

is citadel auto OA or what

[north portal]

same, ive heard that its a good company for passing almost all resume screens

like even quants like Nvidia type thing

[restive crystal]

I think so...

[gentle scroll]

fuck

[rancid flume]

pog!

[north portal]

no i think u get resume screened

[rancid flume]

[north portal]

POG

Congrats! GOOD SHIT

[gentle scroll]

it's not

maybe it's team dependent

[shrewd smelt]

What?

[gentle scroll]

but from what I know majority have A1 wlb

[north portal]

LMAO

but yea no, it seems good enough

i think some teams are more intense than others for sure

but its interesting work and good prestige and pay

[gentle scroll]

seen Nvidia top a few lists for wlb and benefits

blind ratings also good

[bleak crypt]

Anyone taken DoorDash technical (2x60) then got an email saying "The team is still collecting feedback from your interviews, but we'd like to keep your process going in the meantime. The next step will be a 30-minute “Engineering Values” interview." the next day? I'm assuming it's automated since I didn't do that well, but just curious?

Also, my recruiter wanted to set up a 15 minute call as preparation for this 30 minute call. If anyone's done it, could you say if I have to prep for this 15 minute recruiter call?

[hollow field]

Isn't the 30 min call the next step

[hollow field]

How many problems were there and how many did u think I got right

[north portal]

this sounds like a behavioural

how u fit with company values

[bleak crypt]

yeah the 30 minute call is a behavioral but my recruiter wants to set up a 15 minute call as preparation before the 30 minute behavioral

and im wondering what is in that 15 minute call w recruiter

[north portal]

sounds like she will just go over guidelines and shit

resume questions

[bleak crypt]

like should I prep for it or is it not a screen itself?

[north portal]

i think they would explain if u needed to prep, usually they have guidelines

i think its just ur recruiter talking to you about next steps, processes, and like what to expect off behavioural

maybe u got an offer and its team matching or something

and engineering values is to determine where u are gonna go

[bleak crypt]

one hard in the first interview, one medium in the second. for the first one i got a suboptimal solution, then got the optimal one after my interviewer said I could do better. for the second I got the almost-optimal solution but didn't get the optimal one even with many hints

i saw most people got asked multiple questions so I assumed that I was too slow

[north portal]

@potent ore u gotta just say final, and edit the message after processing

[potent ore]

i see

ty

[north portal]

[earnest coral]

Amazon cool-off period for internship positions?

[bleak crypt]

ok, cool! just trying to think about how far out I should schedule it since it's either this friday or next weds, but today and tmrw im gonna be knocked out after some medical stuff

[earnest coral]

Applied 4/24 but withdraw my application but heard some people saying the cool-off period is 6 months to a year idk what to do. Thoughts?

[bleak crypt]

if it's just a chat about next steps and not an interview itself I guess this friday is fine

[hollow field]

Sounds like u got through then

[willow plinth]

praying for stripe

[north portal]

yea fax, I think you got int @bleak crypt and the 15 min call is to talk about offer

and the 30 min is team matching

[rancid flume]

what stage

[north portal]

man other than Riot i really dont have anything else in the pipeline now

wierd feeling to have

aight username change time

[willow plinth]

waiting for hm

[rancid flume]

so you haven't done HM chat yet right?

[bleak crypt]

the 30 mins is def an interview in itself tho, it was described as 'round 2' in the PDF they sent at the start of the process

with an eng manager

[north portal]
