imo

ashen matrix
proud crag
#

since if u keep k as real dist then u have floats

brave orbit
#

I’d say for most ML jobs you apply to, there will be a PhD with papers in top conference(s)

proud crag
#

k is only integer if its kept as squared

ashen matrix
proud crag
ashen matrix
#

theres like

#

very little phds

brave orbit
#

You don’t have to be at the top to publish at top conferences

proud crag
#

ML engineer is very doable as bachelors

ashen matrix
#

my school only has like 15-20 acceptances/year

proud crag
#

ML researcher is very hard

safe minnow
#

Oh

#

I believe there's a lot of those out there than initially meets the eye

jaunty cove
brave orbit
jaunty cove
#

which is the upper bound on the values squares

ashen matrix
brave orbit
#

I feel like it’s just easier to apply to SWE jobs and try to get matched to a ML team

ashen matrix
#

in wat location though

safe minnow
ashen matrix
#

i have low expectations yepge

#

oh

safe minnow
#

And it's worked for me

brave orbit
#

What company?

ashen matrix
#

i been avoiding CA companies cause of cost of living

brave orbit
#

Or companies

i have different insider information that conflicts

#

unless he means end of 2023

ashen matrix
#

with CS u have a bunch of people applying, bootcampers, self-learners, students,etc

jaunty cove
proud crag
#

from what ive heard amazon shit doesnt hit the fan till 2023

ashen matrix
#

u need a degree for ME/AE

proud crag
#

so u gotta get hired before 2023, not after 2022

muted summit
#

bruh i wonder how many spots there are for amazon intern this year then

ashen matrix
#

also AE requires citizenship

jaunty cove
ashen matrix
#

everything in aerospace is defense

jaunty cove
#

but it could be for ft

muted summit
#

i think its ft

ashen matrix
#

a few things don't require

proud crag
#

ive heard too much conflicting info tbh

#

im just gonna try to do well in my interviews if i get them

brave orbit
proud crag
#

like under 100 prolly

brave orbit
#

Or were you when you got into each experience

proud crag
#

still havent gotten half the neetcode patterns

#

im a one trick for DP

#

cant do shit if it isnt dp

hollow field
brave orbit
#

Damn so that’s why I got rejected from viasat

proud crag
hollow field
#

Algos got me through dp hard level

brave orbit
#

I’m Russian so makes sense

proud crag
#

its gotta be 5ish per pattern imo

safe minnow
proud crag
#

but i havent done half patterns

#

i dont have stacks down for instance

ashen matrix
#

are u in the states

proud crag
#

russia is life on hard mode

ashen matrix
safe minnow
hollow field
#

Nah prob like yemen

brave orbit
#

I’m an international

ashen matrix
#

oh

#

yeah thats kinda fked

hollow field
#

Sliding window is good, tries u won't see

proud crag
#

theres a reason you see a lot of advertisements or actors speaking broken english with a russian accent. its because they have shit standard of liing and u can hire them super cheap

#

i dont trust better help because of that

jaunty cove
#

i think u should know how to make a trie

#

its not that hard

hollow field
#

Actually even tries just do a couple qs

proud crag
#

whats difference between trie and a normal tree

#

@jaunty cove

jaunty cove
#

a trie is a tree

proud crag
#

whats the benefit of a trie tho

jaunty cove
#

its just a way to organize data

proud crag
#

compared to a binary search tree

jaunty cove
#

its completely different

#

use cases

hollow field
#

Most cases for tries r strings

brave orbit
#

I’m thinking of just marrying my girlfriend for a green card if nothing goes to plan

jaunty cove
#

bst is good for keeping things in sorted order

#

tries are good for prefixes

hollow field
proud crag
#

u can sort by the alphabetical order of words in a BST or use prefixes for a trie right? and theyre both logN time?

jaunty cove
#

but you cant get info about the number of words with a prefix

#

or anything like that

brave orbit
proud crag
#

oh i see makes sense thanks mr colin

jaunty cove
#

tell them if you waitlist me i will shit my pants

proud crag
#

my brain cant go past the lowest common denominator use case (finding an item in logN time)

#

come up with a story for each of them

jaunty cove
brave orbit
#

If I could take a year off to interview prep, do ML courses and projects, it would be amazing, but not with the immigration laws here

jaunty cove
#

be prepared for follow up quetsions on the details of the story

hollow field
proud crag
#

according to my amazon offer friend as long as you are a human being u will pass the LP OA (knowing him, this means you are generally nice to hang around with but also wont tolerate crazy bullshit requests from customers)

hollow field
#

International makes it touher so just grind until u get an offer

brave orbit
#

I hope the Samsung ml goes through because bc it’s the only OA I have rn

#

And Roblox I forgot

#

But I’m bad at LC

proud crag
#

lx?

brave orbit
#

Sorry

proud crag
#

leet xor

somber solstice
#

u cant be bad at lc

ashen matrix
#

i barely done any leetcode

somber solstice
#

lc can only be bad at you

brave orbit
#

That’s a good outlook

proud crag
somber solstice
#

naur

#

i hate bitshifting 😭

brave orbit
#

The Samsung OA is a ML Knowledge one so I’m hopeful for that at least

somber solstice
#

bitwise is fun tho

proud crag
brave orbit
#

How hard are codesignal Roblox oa’s?

somber solstice
proud crag
#

is roblox GCA or not? i have a GCA score, do i have to do another one for roblox

proud crag
#

close

somber solstice
#

noooo

proud crag
#

what is ~x?

somber solstice
#

i thought it was an and with a not

brave orbit
#

What’s gca

proud crag
#

what is ~x mean

somber solstice
#

i thought it means NOT x

#

so like inverse or smth ?

proud crag
#

it means negative x

#

using 2s comlement

somber solstice
#

ohhhh

proud crag
#

complement

somber solstice
#

i see that makes sense

proud crag
#

so what is x&~x?

somber solstice
#

idk how 2s complement works tho

proud crag
#

what grade u in

#

have u done comp architecture class yet

somber solstice
#

im a freshman

proud crag
#

ok learning time

somber solstice
proud crag
#

2s complement means flip all the bits then add 1 to the result

somber solstice
#

i used to know twos complement

#

but i forgor

proud crag
#

its how virtually every computer handles negative nums

somber solstice
#

i seeee

#

so it returns 1

proud crag
#

it makes subtraction easy cuz u just add x and ~x

somber solstice
#

or 0

#

wait no

#

yes that seems right

#

:o

north portal
#

Nah cuz they don’t want this

somber solstice
#

so x&~x returns 0 no?

proud crag
#

and if u do 2s complement twice you get original num

#

wait yeah i think so , i originally meant x&-x

somber solstice
#

thats what i said 😭

proud crag
#

myb

somber solstice
#

i see

#

nw

proud crag
#

x&-x is the cool one tho

ashen matrix
proud crag
#

thats the real puzzle

ashen matrix
#

wtf

somber solstice
#

i did twos complement long time ago

ashen matrix
#

is 2 days even enough

somber solstice
#

is forget bcz never used it :D

#

wowza

ashen matrix
#

i just finished the application, and sent a follow up to the recruiter

earnest hatch
ashen matrix
#

i had an interview already but it's just them going over my resume n stuff

green apex
#

did any1 do the robinhood karat?

ashen matrix
#

they just asked me if i knew ML stuff, but didnt ask any coding stuff

somber solstice
#

when i say i like bitwise, i like xor

ashen matrix
somber solstice
#

this problem was really fun @proud crag try it out

#

i just hate bitwise notation

ashen matrix
#

or only ML

tropic iron
#

citadel accepts freshmen swe's?

uneven sand
#

probably

tropic iron
#

a friend got finals as freshman

#

absolutely cracked

proud crag
#

"because youre not a human" is what he said

#

personally i think hes giving humanity too much credit

#

i wouldnt slack off

somber solstice
#

what is amazon lps

somber solstice
brave orbit
proud crag
#

is belvedere oa auto

#

i am too

#

i got it for some reason too

brave orbit
#

Mainly ones at companies where a ml team is likely

proud crag

im not joking

equifax yepge but they finished hiring

Plus TC

ashen matrix
brave orbit
ashen matrix
#

are u gunna do grad school

brave orbit
#

I hope not

#

I have BS/MS on my resume because I’m taking a lot of grad classes for ai but I probably won’t stay to finish an MS

ashen matrix
#

idk i dont think ML opportunities are that great if u require sponsership

#

i havent really found that many ML internships to apply to

brave orbit
#

Yeah I feel like marriage is genuinely the best option

ashen matrix
#

but i guess im being picky

brave orbit
#

The equifax interview would’ve been perfect for me bc I’m really bad at leetcode questions

#

Any good ml internships that you found? @ashen matrix

#

That are still hiring

ashen matrix
#

that looks normal

#

info session is weird though

safe minnow
#

Transcript and references 💀 💀

ashen matrix
#

transcripts are required if ur a student

#

reference is if they use hireright or something

ashen matrix
brave orbit
#

Transcripts and references is crazy

ashen matrix
#

wat

#

thats normal

safe minnow
brave orbit
#

The only place where I encountered references is Microsoft Undergraduate Research

ashen matrix
#

my last internship required both

safe minnow
#

Okay

ashen matrix
#

but it was dod i guess

brave orbit
#

They require 2- 3 recommendations from professors

safe minnow
hoary basalt
#

anyone know if amazon deadlines are 11:59pm on the day of

ashen matrix
#

they told me they needed transcripts to verify ur a student and over 3.0 gpa

#

and reference was cause some places use hireright

#

they just use it to check if u worked there or not

ashen matrix
#

idk i applied to most companies in florida, some in atlanta

#

oracle, nextera

#

lots of dod in tampa area

#

idk wat u mean by "good" though

#

pay prob isnt as high as big tech, but its still an internship

stone echo
#

can I move my adobe offer to a figma offer?

uneven sand
#

also auto

#

and also full most likely

stone echo
uneven sand
#

no

#

well sort of

#

i think moving around alphabet is easier internally but it's not easy

#

yea

getting the interview is probably easier

low sentinel
#

Does Palantir call to reject? I emailed my recruiter for an update and she asked to schedule time this week. Not sure if this means anything because I had to reach out

somber solstice
#

they thought i was too good to want to go work for them so they rejected me to keep their acceptance rate low

Including auto ones, I've gottan OAs from IMC, Jp Morgan, Roblox, Salesforce, Cisco, and Paypal. Got a phone with Verint, UKG, and salesforce

#

no RO from amazon

frigid gate
#

Keep applying

obsidian sedge
#

long story lol

frigid gate
jaunty cove
obsidian sedge
#

i just started applying for internships

#

like 1.5 weeks ago

frigid gate
#

I still hope for interview from another company

jaunty cove
obsidian sedge
#

kind of a bullshit performance reasons imo

#

kinda drama too

#

he was evaluating me as a return intern all summer

#

so i didn't rly get negative feedback all summer until we started discussing locations and stuff towards the end

#

the last 2 weeks

#

i mean i did the grad date survey and said im not so like, that's where he gets his info

#

i didn't know he had me as return intern until the last 2 weeks

#

when we started talking about return offer

jaunty cove
#

someone just dmed me to ask about draftkings interview process after i said this

obsidian sedge
#

I just assumed that since my application had me as a summer 2023 grad and the survey i filled was within the return full time window

#

so i have no idea why he was evaluating me as intern

#

yes

sick oar
#

@jaunty cove ur goated

#

take the W and run

obsidian sedge
#

he just didn't give me much negative feedback because my performance was good enough for a return intern offer

jaunty cove
#

lol

obsidian sedge
#

so i got complacent

sick oar
jaunty cove
#

if i get the official offer and everything im gonna do everything in my power to get a RO

obsidian sedge
#

the last 1:1 he basically implied that my performance would've been okay for a return intern but bar raised me for return full time

sick oar
#

i’m so confused

jaunty cove
obsidian sedge
#

Right

jaunty cove
#

but no offer letter

sick oar
#

oh ok good

obsidian sedge
#

and ask for feedback

sick oar
#

nah you’ll get a palo alto offer

#

@jaunty cove palo alto is A9

#

so ads

jaunty cove
sick oar
#

all the offices are restricted

#

to ads only

uneven sand
#

45-50 is probably accurate

#

yea but what’s the average for smart interns

jaunty cove
sick oar
sick oar

Also ML maybe

#

Search + recommendations

At least colin have CA

obsidian sedge

Alright time to spam a bunch of intern apps

Keep in mind

quaint bolt
#

I don’t think 55 is out of the ordinary for Cit lol

obsidian sedge
#

Well he told me he thought my technical skills needed work if i was going to be full time. He said its okay as an intern but if im gonna be full time, i needed to be better with the technology they use (all tech i've never used before the summer so not much i coulda done about being a newbie)

safe minnow
#

People process information differently

#

Sometimes people could do jobs it takes other people half the time

obsidian sedge
#

who the fuck knows honestly

#

i asked him and he dodged it with a vague answer about just general knowledge and familiarity with the product and technology we use

quaint bolt
#

people thinking about jumping to cit are basically always told not to do it kekw_recession_edition

obsidian sedge
#

that was the last day

safe minnow
#

LOL

obsidian sedge
#

that was his reasoning for why i didn't get return

quaint bolt
#

usually multiple*

obsidian sedge
#

he also mentioned communication skills, which i mean i guess that's fair

#

I'm generally a timid and introverted person and that reflects in my work, i rarely reached out outside of my team for help

sick oar
#

nah bruh 💀💀💀

obsidian sedge
#

within the same org

quaint bolt
#

banana man

obsidian sedge
#

well my project had ties to another team in the org

quaint bolt
#

my midterms went well

obsidian sedge
#

right

#

but i didn't really do that much

sick oar
#

i am currently employed by amazon web services and i work 10 hours a week max on full time employment @jaunty cove

obsidian sedge
#

that feedback i can understand

#

but i wish he said that to me throughout the internship lol that final meeting was the first time i heard it

astral dew
#

Def recommend

jaunty cove
#

i thought u were an intern

wooden shard
quaint bolt
#

You have to as part of onboarding

sick oar
#

yeah i am

#

lol

quaint bolt
#

Oh

sick oar
#

i might try to get my team to keep me as a contractor tbh

quaint bolt
#

No

jaunty cove
sick oar
#

deliverable work + contract = max pay

obsidian sedge
#

for onboarding you do a 1:1 with your manager, mentor, onboarding buddy, PM, and a random member of your team who recently joined

#

i actually never did the 1:1 with the pm lmfao

jaunty cove
#

fall intenr

sick oar
#

summer + fall so far

quaint bolt
#

But I used to sit around a sister team’s area bc they had space for all of my friends

obsidian sedge
#

During our offsite in seattle that was the first time we met

sick oar
#

do not say 121

quaint bolt
#

So I got to know the other team thru that

#

I didn’t do it to meet other teams kekw_recession_edition

obsidian sedge
#

slack

quaint bolt
#

We had like 12 people in our friend group

#

We did it bc we needed space LOL

obsidian sedge
#

oh yeah i didn't make any friends during the summer

#

even for the time that i was in office

#

i didn't talk to anyone 💀

uneven sand
#

anything with a higher offer

obsidian sedge
#

im anxious and antisocial lmfao

quaint bolt
#

Also our org was p tight knit too which is nice

#

I wouldn’t reach out to team in same org tho

#

That’s kinda weird champ

#

Reach out to other orgs

uneven sand
#

ik someone that got OMC 500k

astral dew
#

Lol WTF

uneven sand
#

yes

quaint bolt
#

Is it bc you want to switch to that team

#

Or just to get to know the team

#

If it’s the latter it’s p obvious why not

#

If not it’s fine

sick oar
quaint bolt
#

Ask on a need to know basis

#

Start your project first lol

boreal forge
#

yeah only js, hrt without competing offers irc. but isn't the cit standard offer is 375 though?

jaunty cove
quaint bolt
#

If you get stuck, and if no one on your team can answer

#

Then reach out to other team

prayge jane street new grad

#

No

No one leaves wagon man on read

uneven sand
#

no

#

I’m graduating 2024

I didn’t get citadel

#

I’m at drw

quaint bolt
#

Yeah all other interns from diff orgs etc

uneven sand
#

I got rejected after final for citadel

jaunty cove
#

@sick oar can i ask you questions about how to maximize getting a return offer?

quaint bolt
#

Well 2 others were from the same org

uneven sand
#

oof

proper gyro
#

did any of yall do the robinhood OA

uneven sand
#

are you in Chicago in the summer

proper gyro
#

I had my ass clapped and handed back to me

#

somehow many ppl on here got the karat tho? Am I just stupid or did everyone just find it easy

quaint bolt
#

There’s like 12 people I’d have to go thru LOL just from intern gc meetups in the beginning
We’d also in the beginning take over a conf room and work from there and slowly some more people showed up there

proper gyro
#

its a GCA but bruh the output didnt even make sense

quaint bolt
#

And then once we were at a decent size we did our own thing

sick oar
#

i think ultimately just communicate w ur boss and make sure nothint is negatively said about you lmaooo

uneven sand
#

I think new grad was around 160/80/80 in the past but is probably a bit higher now. Intern pay is great so I’m not complaining for now lol

jaunty cove
#

maybe i can learn about the team beforehand and learn about the tech stack?

quaint bolt
#

You don’t need to

uneven sand
#

wlb and dev culture seems pretty good from talking to engineers

quaint bolt

I’ve done none of that ever and I’ve never not gotten an RO

unfortunately there’s not much info on them online

maybe its copium but i dont really think amazon would rescind offers even in this economic climate

the fact that theyre slowing down hiring yet still giving out offers means theyre aware of the situation

there was another wave like last week right

yeah amazon is safe

they are slowing down for sure

not hiring as many

quaint bolt
#

They’re slowing down in response to the economy

muted summit

maybe they hired too many too early, so they gotta waitlist in response
