I really need your help & advice "what to do - how to process to achieve your targets - how to achiece my goals" I'm literally crying deeply from inside.
I am so screwed up with mylife & by myself. I'm f#king SAD Stressed Anxiety Depressed.

[verbal iris]

ballin

[sinful locust]

just mention the load balancer, cache, partitioning, replication youll be straight

learn CDN if you havent, its very powerful

sharding how?

vertically or horizontal

vertically i think its more possible with SQL

horizontally, you can still

but horizontaly more common with nosql

Yeah

i think the joining is a big issue

although i did mention horizontal sharding w SQL and he seemed fine with it

[somber solstice]

CDN... hehe heh

what is sharding

[glossy dirge]

!uptime

[sinful locust]

bu really the first determination of sql vs no sql should prolly be whether you want strong or eventual consistency in the data, whether you care about structure, that type of thing

[verbal iris]

!uptime

[sinful locust]

then you can determine sharding approach

[bold barn]

so they "pay a lot" but since a quarter of that is RSUs

which could tank

their pay could be lower than amazon

Tony Tinklemaster

literally quandale dingle of tech

[jaunty cove]

lmao

what do u mean

[sinful locust]

that makes no sense

[jaunty cove]

you are or you arent

[sinful locust]

you just have to stop asking a million questions and just do it

stop being like goku

this is a goku noment

[jaunty cove]

if you cant solve a problem then its not impostor syndrome, it just means youre bad

thats what i tell mself too

hm

i dont know if i can help with that

sounds like anxiety

yea i mean before you solve a problem you wont be able to solve the problem

its the process of solving the problem that makes you able to solve the rpoblem

so your brain is right

youre not able to solve it until you solved it

[rancid stratus]

Wait bruh they said to reach out to confluent recruiter if I didn't get hackerrank

They need a SWE intern like me to fix their problems

[wicked bison]

im beat

[wicked bison]

i solved the leetcode using is alpha and is lower

and then comparing the string to its reverse

it was too easy w python in built commands

[jaunty cove]

lol yea

[wicked bison]

but i gotta solve it without those built in commands tmrrw

[sinful locust]

too bad they hate me

[frank willow]

anyone have to do case study interviews for deloitte software engineering summer scholar?

[random mauve]

Literally so much imposter syndrome in tech rn

[stone echo]

yup

[quaint bolt]

@near swallow

[random mauve]

What is that

nope

why am i on here i have a midterm at 10am tomorrow and im not prepared at all (and it's 11:15 rn) 😭

[quaint bolt]

If you get paid for the TA position then sure

Def not student orgs

[jaunty cove]

im not going to bc mine is unverifiable and i dont want there to be an issue

[quaint bolt]

Up to you

If it’s on your resume you should

If not it’s fine

[jaunty cove]

i put it as a volunteer position

[north portal]

personally, id just tell the internship manager to pay me post internship for my contributions

gotta know your value type shit

[quaint bolt]

It’s fine stuff like this doesn’t matter

The problem is if you say you worked at company x and they can’t verify it at all

Even then it’ll just show up as a discrepancy

And the company will prolly ask you about it

[jaunty cove]

list your own phone number

[pseudo orbit]

they did last year

[quaint bolt]

idr

You’d think I’d remember having done this 4 times

But I forgor 💀

[pseudo orbit]

i dont remember

[jaunty cove]

at lesat i hope not

monday

idk

a lot of people had to wait longer

some people 2 weeks

im not capping look at process

someone interviewd on monday and got rejected

Tf

nvm your right

[slow veldt]

they dont

[jaunty cove]

nowadays people are getting it fast

someone got it after monday already

[slow veldt]

unless they explicitly ask for a reference

and if they explicitly ask for a reference

[jaunty cove]

but other people...they are waiting since 10/10

[slow veldt]

then tough

[torn gull]

i wouldn't say thoroughly

and it varies heavily on company

[jaunty cove]

he said he did very well

im scaed

scared

[wicked bison]

ye

[torn gull]

bad advice

[jaunty cove]

Idk

its on reddit

more people saying they did well and rejected

they said they got a med-hard graph

i bet its the same one i got or something LOL

[torn gull]

always exaggerate and lie about things you can back up (in terms of talking abt it in an interview setting)

[jaunty cove]

people always say "med-hard"

when its not

[torn gull]

lying gets u places

[jaunty cove]

hella people were getting rejected on reddit

[torn gull]

cheating in school, lying on resume

[jaunty cove]

before this week, almost everyone was posting accepted

[torn gull]

etc

[wicked bison]

what if im transferring to bachelors and i 100% know im getting accepted do i stull not put it on my resume

[torn gull]

that's a personal opinion

[slate zealot]

anyone get the confluent oa email without the hackerrank link

[pseudo orbit]

[torn gull]

no way

[restive crystal]

Exaggeration and embellishment fine on resume, don’t blatantly lie about an experience you have cause some places do check

[pseudo orbit]

let em learn the hard way

[torn gull]

bad advice

[viral pivot]

[jaunty cove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/csMajors/comments/xx7fhp/for_anything_related_to_amazon_3_interns/

[torn gull]

real

[jaunty cove]

the scary thing is i think i did well too

but i can never be sure

[wicked bison]

be nervous, you will fail

[jaunty cove]

yea

[wicked bison]

everything will be aight

[jaunty cove]

cause i feel like my career is going to be significatly different if i dont get this internshi

[wicked bison]

everything is how it should be, if you get rejected from amazon but accepted at google step isnt that better

Gods plan

Gods plan

[jaunty cove]

dont pull up at 6 am to cuddle with me

[torn gull]

100% not

[wicked bison]

what

[jaunty cove]

gods plan

[wicked bison]

if you get rejected from amazon u will get a better opportunity, dont sweat it

[jaunty cove]

i dont think i applied

idk i just didnt remember it was a company

[torn gull]

funny thing is some ppl ask their interviewer at the end of interviewer how well they did

[wicked bison]

its a good question

[torn gull]

lmfao define "good"

[wicked bison]

entelligence

[jaunty cove]

i asked my interviewr what an interesting problem hes working on recently is, and how many team members he works with

[wicked bison]

“When do I start?”

[torn gull]

i think it just as important to keep it conversational rather than a q&a as it is to ask "good" questions

[jaunty cove]

i talked to him a bit about it

but we were over time already

yea but 30 minutes of the interview was just lps

more time on behavioral than technical

they go over the oa right

for ng

[zealous grotto]

wait for real?

[jaunty cove]

someone got waitlisted on monday and accepted today

[torn gull]

heavily disagree

i think it's still understated

[wicked bison]

i met a bofa hiring manager today

and it concluded my debate on wether the technical skills should be on top or below the experience

she said i shouldve put technical skills section above experience

[torn gull]

its p 50/50

[wicked bison]

hmm

[rancid flume]

anyone with coffee chats for stripe after HM chat?

[torn gull]

i would base the decision on how "impressive" your experience section is

[wicked bison]

oh its pretty impressive

[torn gull]

lmfao

[jaunty cove]

💀

[zealous grotto]

bruh

[jaunty cove]

hackerrank has no control over whether u get an OA

[rancid stratus]

I got the OA email

[torn gull]

i say 7, for g/fb/db/stripe/ts/js/cit

[zealous grotto]

Did you have to email recruiter?

[sinful locust]

sushi needs to stop talking here

sushi needs to shut u0

up

i swear

😭

[torn gull]

[sinful locust]

[torn gull]

ong

[sinful locust]

i think he got half the server blocked

LMAO

clown ahh

@pseudo shoal le hyena

[jaunty cove]

i think

[torn gull]

only one of them are doing layoffs

i think WLB becomes an important factor to consider once you pass 50hrs/wk

like for ex if you're comparing 20hr/wk (google) vs 40hr/wk (meta) im taking the higher salary (assuming the GE package)

[torn gull]

but if its 40hr/wk vs 60hr/wk at a hft i think WLB does come into play there
