agree, although there are so so many resources within the cs department albeit the amount of students, esp for the intro classes
the TA to student ratio for the intro class (1.7k students) is roughly 1 to 20
which honestly is quite impressive
85 grad students for the class?
although the quality of TA is obv debatable since the bar to become one is lower to to higher demand / quantity
usually undergrad that took the class alr
TAs not GSIs
Oh
Yeah it looks like quite a few schools took this approach
My school does diversity hires lmao
For TA
So sometimes questionable
But understandable
Do they directly state that they do
Yes
A TA told me
They look for diversity within a class TA group
my school is extremely impacted for CS and if you come in undeclared you need a 3.9 in the intro to CS and some math classes
it kinda sucks
Bruh 🗿
yeah idk if they just overadmit the years before or just everyone wants to transfer in or what
Mine is in a similar spot, they review your ECs and shit for holistic transfer
damn EC review for transfer
Yeah it's fucked
Though the people who do manage to transfer are usually pretty cracked
yeah i guess they let the cracked ppl in which is good
but it sucks at the same time bc it can also be kinda gatekept
Yeahh
Anyone here on J-1 visas know how to get back to back J-1s?
All my datapoints are loo coop kids
So idk how it works if you’re not in a coop program/not in loo
I'm in a co-op program just not loo
How does it work at loo, do you get like 2 J-1s or extend the previous J-1?
You get 2 J-1s
Damn okay, do you know how long it takes to get a J-1, if I get a winter offer in like the next two weeks - would it be possible get one in ~2 months?
Are you a Canadian citizen?
yeee
If you are you can get one in like 2 weeks
Oh phew damn, I was stressing out here
But
That’s 2 weeks from start of J-1 app to getting J-1
My friend actually got the offer like 3 months before the start date
2 or 3
So there might be some logistics there
Interesting I see, I'll look more into it but thanks for the info!
that’s insane
pinterest moment
WJSU
Lundeclared
just added in econ as another major. Hoping I don't regret it🙏
How does Amazon LP interview look like? Do they say: “tell me a time you [insert LP]”?
For real or is this troll?
Capital one STILL hasn’t scheduled my power day
It has now been 2 months
Wait wrong channel
They closed intern completely
Does anyone know if LinkedIn offers remote option for summer 2023? (Specifically for Canadians)
anyone remember when rivian said they would start their process in that event they had? or did they already give out interviews?
do you mind sliding the recruiter's LN?
My linkedin recruiter called and she said “i have an update to share with you about your application which is that we are still working on your evaluation and it may take another week or two”
what
why would you call me to say that
she emailed me and said she wanted to call me with an update and the update was that there was no update
same with my roblox recruiter ):):
told me she still collecting feedback
this is a certified L moment
why put us through that 😢
Good luck
Will Expedia still consider me if I took the OA two weeks later
does datadog call after final round to
anyone done the paypal technical interview yet?
Inshallah we hear back today with offer from [in] my brothers, sisters, and other siblings.


for GS?
bruh i had the OA but im defo not getting final cause msft got spots filled so amzn prolly has nothing left as well
😭
i got the email from msft today saying they no longer have a position for me, but they said i did good in the screen tho
💀
this is UK tho
Amazon basically done
how dyk
amzn gotta be done in uk if msft is
waitlist doesn’t mean done hiring tho
i’m saying US
if they had no spots they’d reject
fully thought i fumbled GS hirevue
I'm p sure they wait-list cuz they full for now but when people renege they fill those spots
I still haven't received Google OA, am I rejected? lol
do they send out rejection emails
anybody got any tips for learning how to do LC hards
they might just be figuring out head count
this recession starting to hit different lmfao
Pray
there were some new grads that got waitlisted a few weeks ago but recently a good chunk got off the waitlist
most people seemed to be matched to san diego so ig they had opened up more hc there
Yeah but I feel like wait-list means they're very close to done
Like they're near the end of their hiring at least for now
fr bro i respect this

maybe amazon will come in and save the day in January

internships are becoming college apps 💀
is anyone else interviewing with khan academy rn? I have some questions
I got an offer from them last summer. Feel free to dm
deloitte solutions engineering internship vs geico summer tech internship
how frequently can I email my recruiter to ask for applications status?
going completely off of levels fyi amazons ft benefits package have a dollar value of around 6k while msft equals 20k
microsoft TC lower tho
right which is why im asking if people factor benefits into tc
Amzn Bay Area tc is 210k
msft done in US??
i mean i guess they might have filled a lot of the positions already considering they are probably if not completely done in the UK
sad times sad times
perhaps it was the office they were planning to put me in
but they said the screen went good but they no longer have a position available
which imo means they have filled all the positions
yes
has anyone ever been able to bypass gca 14 day waitlist? I took proctored recently but waned to take netflix oa which I think is unproctored
dont wanna send the gca score cuz garbo :(
Ive heard its possible but idk how to word it
idt this works anymore
i think they removed account merging
even when you could merge accounts, people would get flagged
tho ig that was only with proctored tests
I don't think so
i applied to a first year program last year int he UK
flippin third years got all the positions
I mean I did one last year as a sophmore and I just told them I'm doing a +1 for my masters when I'm not
and they gave me a pay raise too😭
it's a small company tho, but I know they don't check for grad years or anything like that
maybe it's different for bigger companies
I actually want to do a +1 just to avoid the market for next year, so Imma have to come up with another excuse😭
no it worked for me
I most def failed my paypal hackerrank 
how many test cases u get
they are pretty lenient i think
but the OA was not super hard so idk how they will be this year tbh
Bro they were easy questions
I just screwed up only got a like a quarter of the test cases
Real
if ur code is close enough u can get through maybe
They look at the code?💀
I didn’t even think I’d get sumth from PayPal
Idk I thought it was a robot
Whatever I should probably practice lc or sumth
i have no clue but maybe
anyone know how the raytheon internship experience is like?
Nah but I assume it’s sumth to do with embedded or c stuff
No clue I just gotta wait till I hear back from them
ik someone who finished paypal OA in 6 minutes
so i assume it's not guaranteed to move on even with AK
like a quarter of the test cases weren’t working for one of them
And hackerrank hides the other test cases so I was just sitting there
idk why but the paypal oa was pretty hard lol
Ima just take it as me needing more practice
rip colin
the hardest part really is passing the screen
i'm so confused i applied to amazon a couple months ago with a referral and i have a good resume but never got an oa :(
Yeah I hear Amazon just throws jobs at anyone
for amazon i got 15/15 and 3/15 and still passed
n3 got screened so you know its a legit gamble
yea
the dude making 600k ng
screened from zon
this is proof that quant doesn’t help get into big tech and y’all r fuckjng jaded
Quant?
n3 ran a marathon on that hedonistic treadmill tho
Like citadel or sumth? Idk what the firms are
i asked him if he still gets a dopamine rush when he gets an offer anymore
bro says he dont feel anything
his seratonin receptors are calcified
you’re a fool for not accepting my messages
a job thats pays a life changing amount id be mad happy
Nothing like getting a rejection after final right before a midterm
Can confirm 
gl yo
me irl
U sure?
Yep
Yeah this is I think the only problem. Like nobody knows jump Trading if you aren’t into that kind of stuff
same lmao, i feel like i just have to pass
If I tell me dad I go to Hudson River trading, he asked what is this. But when I tell him I go to Amazon he is super proud
yea barely anyone knows about hft's
How to get past citadel phone
But you can’t put tc on CV without looking like an idiot 😂
im sooo tempted to withdraw my msft app, its been > 80 days and no update
Ok I am curious 😏
i applied to amazon in august, heard nothing since then, and just got an email for final round?
didn’t even get oa
les goooo
how to pass - superday
Looks like you are sexy af or you took an OA long time ago and it’s still valid for this role
What about quant dev?
give them a lil time i know they had some internal reorgs which fucks up intern team plavement
I rejected an offer from UKG last summer y'all think I could reach out to the recruiter and get my offer back somehow but for next summer 😂
maybe like interview results good for a year type shit
Okay 
you’d have to manage people for that but yeah true
laughs in 300k new grad tc
idk some people go out of their way to not manage people
i mean you can become a vp/distinguished engineer
but
there’s fewer of those
than VPs
normal
and most of those have been w the company since founding
yeah
i wanna do that but w big tech
but also pm wlb is fine so i don’t mind
is that partner level?
i was thinking mainly about amazon
I think financial independence is a good thing
Quant is valid if you wanna quit and do a startup
quant swe isnt a thing imo, it is hft swe
and quant trader/researcher
ofc idk anything abt quant at all
But idk y’all gotta realize that quant doesn’t put you in a different social class
as big tech
like ultimately ppl end up equally wealthy assuming same caliber
morally tho... 😢
lmao rogue trading models moment
that being said, quant is definitely one of the most interesting fields out there
i just want LI next summer bruv
yup!
rogue quant trading models after being unleashed on the financial markets
we can talk ab creating stuff for humans vs humans wanting stuff
would be subscription based
ad free internet is worse than ad internet
horrible
like just bc something has a market doesn’t mean it’s good for society
freemium is awesome but hardge
(tiktok)
yeah that’s obv a factor too
just did the robinhood rc call. She tole me I'll be receiving the response by the end of this week.
i wanna do research on that
is impossible wowza

i just want enough money to move out of US
You too man. Basically we just talked about my experience, my interest in the company and sm hr questions
did not hear back
i emailed recruiter and she hasnt responded
like 1.5 weeks
fr
im on perma blacklist
for all tech companies
17/17 stripe u didn’t get phone? Lol
i didnt hear back
Lol
I just want enough money so I can move to the US 😅😂
Yeah
nice to know
They failed offer phase tho. That’s when they review it
They moved me to the next stage after 2-3 days. Was really fast
i didnt do that
If you renege internship offer but school has strict policy on NO reneging offers.
Can school discipline you if you are citizen/green card holder that doesn’t need sponsorship from school?
They review the OA at the end
i did OOP
i hardcoded admin one but that was cause u can short circuit return
I heard back 1 day after every round
Early lol
I’m more excited about stripe than for datadog
Yo do it
Do it do it
I need a roomate
can you negotiate with a signed offer 🤔
Yea
how do i get stripe to reach back
Supposedly it’s sick
Yeah I have scheduled it 3 weeks into the future
should i email recruiter?
that’s a mistake
Why?
cause there is like no headcount this year
Why would you wait
Always move as quickly as possible to avoid issues
Because I have multiple companies in the pipeline right now and I want to keep All of them in the loop 😅😅
It’s Dublin Btw
Take all during the first week
And grind
I did thst
If you renege internship offer but school has strict policy on NO reneging offers.
Can school discipline you if you are citizen/green card holder that doesn’t need sponsorship from school?
can u. prep for phone
Wdym take all during first week?
U like cant
the OA was like no algorithms it was weird
I have to do it in python but I only use python for leetcode my professional language is java 😅😅
I got an offer and one of my Techs zoom crashed
So I barely did it
And they still give me offer
Yeah it’s fire
Hahahaha I do that every time with js… there are like 3 ways to loop in js.
- of
- in
- for i
Then stripe
hmmm
It’s probably that
I’m the same way
Like I crushed Hubspot too and that was practical stuff
Same with capital one
Yep
i hate practical interviews bcz idk how to code
leetcode interviews are easier bcz they dont require brain :D
just monke neurons
Does anyone know if yext reject after behavioural final?
i assume they can
is palantir two onsite then HM?
Anyone got rejected after behavioural final? Yext
should i put on a shirt for an interview with a asset management company? i think its like a tech company but parent company is asset management lmao
@sleek pike i havent heard back yet 
i rly aint feelin it but shit idk

This doesn't mean I've been rejected right
@safe minnow when was your final
mine looks the same 
Yesterday
I’ve gotten confirmation I’ll get a result today however

Do they have a question bank
bruh is citadel even hiring lmao
No
No
Got rejected after optimal solution on phone
It's kinda hard to do the OA knowing they send it to everyone
darn
do you work full time and study full time?
ask for permission from your manager
or take a vacation day
depends on the company
and the manager
Tell em ur meeting faculty advisor to go over courses/career goals
At Meta ppl were leetcoding on the job

For SWE?

She didn’t have that
the technology intern program?
Hm
Yeah in the interview
Has anyone done Verkada Embedded interview?

@wide socket 
For anyone who has been through Salesforce process, do you interview with several teams or do I only get the one chance for the one they matched me to
I don’t think I’d pass the interview for this team lmaooo
Smth else
Yea same I got rejected
By edge
Same
Its what I have my oa in
But I also have verizon

Have walmart still not started their process yet

Im still waiting on interview
how many applications yall send out?
how long after applying did you get the OA?
~150 across 3-4 months
ive only had 1 interview so far, granted it was a pretty good company
you started applying in june?
july
i have a friend who got an offer for QT
but im also being selective with where im applying
Yeah a bunch of the places i applied to early before i realized my resume was solid were 💩
if i cut those out it would be like ~80 apps
Do QT companies fill up headcount early like SWE or do they recruit late
Guys
did you also notice a big decrease in internship offers? generally, for everyone
last year it was much better
(imo)
seems like things are just rough rn because of hiring freezes / economic slowdown
i wonder why
maybe theres an economic downfall coming
idk probably due to russian invasion and economic slowdown
yeah i wasn't planning on doing internship this year

but IT could be doing better than that tbh
rent is more expensive meh
Probably bad system
don't curses usually go in the other direction?
everything is gonna be fine -> everything is not fine
everywhere is full -> everywhere is empty
same
dog company smh
Give interview to me
i can now start saying that
🥲
sde1 -> join google
if google puts me there 
i will 1v9 team matching 
its long and annoying but like 90% of people pass
yeah you interview with intern managers
who're interested in your profile
nah
im in team matching
Is it not guaranteed for first team match?
no that's only if you get headhunted by a recruiter
amazon wl
Anyone been thru Salesforce and know?
lol exactly how i feel about amazon as well lmao
gotta hustle for -
BRUH WHAT

was this after the final?
superday etc etc
oooooooh
u never got superday then
bruh rip
i guess u mean the survey they send with the hirevue

Nah I agree
oh i got it at the same time
They overwork their swe way too much
If you see the survey the average number of hours a GS analysis works is 96 a week
fr lmao i seen it xd
id suffer for a summer if i was given the chance
Intern is chill
has amzon closed up
LOOOOL
Overworked but at least your paid for your depression


economy when i finally get the chance for Big-N interview

Tackle is a funny name 
fr bro fr
@wary whale do you have prev internship

When are you gonna tell us your grad date 👀
i thought just new grad was affected
Oh
guess interns also affected
where you intern before
They have multiple grammar errors in there too
"fill our all of our..."
"will cancelling your phone interview..."
yes
i didnt expect asana's recruitment process to be this chaotic haha
i thought they had their shit together
ask if its okay to interview for more than one team
some companies allow it some dont
my recruiter emailed saying
hC was full
wait no
i think its not accepting new apps
but i applied lol
Man if you really try to read the first sentence out loud you'll get a headache
Anyone else ghosted after linkedin final 😭

JUDA IS A MATATI

Final is done

It's a good company to have as an intern for sure

Interesting

And Amazon’s also 60
But yeah some are cap
Depends on location
Amazon HCOL is 60
Goog HCOL is also high 50s
?avatar @stable spire

He lost his old account or something
Yes
i lost my 2FA codes
https ://www.reddit.com/r/memes/comments/xqd1qm/my_love_language/
i was so good until i washed up this year
why would they advertise it publicly
then more unqialified people would keep applying bc of the pay
tbh they lucky they gonna be at uni when there aint no recession


theres gonne be more shit resumes flooding the process :peke
I bet most rentech employees never applied to mcdonalds burger flipper, so is mcdonalds > rentech

@sleek pike how are you feeling about cruise rn
I agree
I think Cruise > Roblox
Ooh
You don’t have to
Even better
I’d take cruise over roblox if that helps anyway ;)
I got wack vibes from their on campus event at my school
They visited my school
Did a recruiting event
I went
The recruiter and Director and Engineers that talked
Ehhhh
Idk
just weird vibes
Super cult

That being said I have a friend that’s there full time
He’s cool
His team seems cool
We should all join cults
will i get a jane street interview with datadog + stripe as my final year internships
I go to northeastern
Bro
I no joke moved on to Netflix phone with like a 607 code signal
lmfao no fucking way
thats cap
Wait what is that
Lucky bastard
howd u get OA 😭
1 + 2 and one test case for 3?
Nah thatsxless
I only got like 120 on 4
has anyone else working for a consulting firm like me
He only got one
@stone echo When did you hear back from Datadog after final round?
Here’s the screenshot of the test
next day 🙂
i said deadline tho
The ceo is chill
yes, and i choose u
Smart
Can someone list all the steps to SIG SWE?
Is it OA -> HR Phone -> Code Phone -> Final?
Or is final after HR phone?
This has been my process
More like hr phone -> 3 week wait -> code phone -> 2 week wait -> final scheduling email -> ghost
anybody here every been an SRE (site reliability engineer) intern is it similar to swe, useful for starting a swe career, or not good at all 
ideal for moving to swe in the future?
thx 
it's higher level then swe but might be good if you are looking into those architect roles?
computer level
so further away from the application code
tbh ngl i dont know much about it, im considering sending more apps and here in the Uk they got an intern role for that and just wondered what it was tbh
still undecided about it
It takes less time to decide to reject someone then to give them an offer right
or maybe they're like okta lol
theyre literally waiting for everybody to finish finals to make a decision smh
Bruh
Anyone hear back from Twitch after virtual onsite?
do you know whats the headcount for okta?
we're looking to hire a total of 130-140 interns across different organizations across Okta!
Oh I just did HR phone Friday and got a response about Code Phone today
What’s this
tiktok
tiktok
i submitted an incomplete OA lol
cause im done recruiting
and they passed me
its def my resume
i have security + swe experience
wtf is resume screening and resume evaluation 🤨
do you know about new grad?
no idea
did you take the OA yet
yeah lol
First
lmao
Ye I got the offer
middle
ask for their ssn and refer to them by that

@devout jewel How many days after virtual on-site did you get offer?
what happened to stripe
Next 2 days
If I get stripe, I will do stripe
as of rn, I only got Roblox rn for summer
Which is the only offer that I like
Prayge for summer at stripe
both great options
Plaid
What a problem to have
Lmfao
Y’all debating which offer to take I’m just tryna get an interview
Earnings moment
do you guys check the portals for ur apps often or just wait for emails/phones
Emails

any of yall just accept the internship offers then back out in like feb
they give like 1 week to decide the offer and i havent even applied to all the places i wanted to apply to yet
wouldn't really recommend that, i'd take just take your offer and secure it
What’s second round? Is that after OA?
Is flexport OA auto
YOOO WTF
I COLd emailed apple
3 months ago
I JUST FOLLOWED UP TO SAY I HAD A DEADLINE AND SHE RESPONDED QUICK ASF
YOOOOOoo
DEPENDS ON TEAM???
oop email
@median hedge also she mentioned winter not summer
Which I’m lowk down for
Like hella down
does withdrawing a course from school affect intern offer
Roblox doesn't call to reject right
Would yall take Virtu Financial vs Pinterest SWE Internship? (asking for friend)
virtu personally
I started off as a sre intern
has anyone here done the lumen hirevue, and can say if its technical / behavioral?
Moved on to a fullstack dev role at the same company -> got swe offers from 2 big tech companies -> graduating this year and got an offer for a swe at a startup
its like 5-6 behavioral questions
winter apple 👀
perhaps i will apply then
how was the interview process for SRE
similar to swe or entirely different?
nice
wait did you hear back
no
its usually 2 days for ppl to get unwaitlisted
Thanks for the follow up. Unfortunately, we do not have an update to provide at this time regarding an offer. However, I can assure you are teams are working hard to provide you with an update as soon as possible and we do greatly appreciate your patience!
whatever happens happens
true
@sleek pike did you ever find a roblox intern discord
Lmao
august 10
oh lmao nvm i applied in mid october
yes make your pfp a cute anime girl
100% response rate
thanks 
the recruiter specifically asked for 6+ month january start
oh shit ok
i wonder if theyre gonna respond
i did too
i didn't even apply to apple lol
yet
my friend who got apple was required to do two seasons (jan-july/august)
damn u guys are getting responses from apple
we will see 🙏
i wonder what team i'd get
i thought they accepted and tried to move to seattle and nyc at the same time for two different reasons
i didn't even apply sooo
By getting enough sleep
does stripe team screen require knowledge ab http requests
Could you send the invite to me
y'all wanna hear the nerdiest but lowkey might be fun game of all time
skribbl io but its only custom words and the custom words are leetcode problem names
💀
What's after the 45 min interview for salesforce?
Team dependent, you should ask your recruiter
Ok thank you
Does a Roblox Discord exist?
If it’s your technical then the next one will be a super chill 45minute final
Btw, is there a Salesforce Intern discord server?
It was my first internship and it was at a no name company
Tbh they asked if i knew about k8s or docker. i did not but i said i was willing to learn
that was enough lol
Yes
Atlassian phone was easy

But I am a new grad
Applying to internships cuz no NG open roles
Atlassian has new grad
I can still do a combined master degree so later grad date
Yes but they rejected me for NG
Not exactly rejection but being ghosted
exhilarating
You could ask recruiter if they could interview you for new grad instead. Someone got rejected for new grad but then got "unrejected" after contacting a recruiter.
roblox reminder to complete test
oooo yeah it is my technical
but its with a specific team
ohh that's smart.
