nah more like it shows you're unavailable
whens your final for hrt @inner kernel
what resources are you using for os
i wanna learn os before i take the class next sem just for general knowledge etc
snap appears to have closed their internship postings already; did anyone hear back from them?
wonder if being good at OS still help my DSA skills lmao
should all the benefits... be in the contract?
like housing/food
housing stipend?
ohhh ok
ur a blessing ty
ahh ok tyty
ty k man
omw deleting all my past chats
thanks 
open dm
wait was the amazon shit cap
honestly yea
ig im dumb
i didn’t read the official text he posted, was it an obvious troll
another soul claimed by the cscd deep state
the entirety of the amazon discord is evidence that people hired by amazon are, in fact, not extremely intelligent
anyone else get an update from walmart "we are currently determining next steps ... plan to have this determined by Nov 30" ?
@ocean minnow is GOATED
@honest spire i subbed to roku's student network and they sent me a bunch of new roles pog
Honestly, the amazon discord is hell
It's hard to believe that some of them got full time offers or offers at all lol
What they say in amazon discord
Oh there's a whole bunch of shit
like 10k i think
Saw one dude being racist in there the other day 💀
unironically yes
my take is that they hire so many people that theres a REALLY wide variation of talent
also not surprising
10k is still fucking huge even for 3 years
no i swear the jpmc discord has like 500-1000 which is still a lot
but the people there are a lot less
problematic
no behavioral round 
whats that? 👀
I interned amazon last summer but i dont know what jpmc discord is

I didnt get return offer this summer cuz i was dumb
but now i hear amazon mostly firing from my org

🤣
any last minute tips for apple phone prep?
job posting says preferred languages of Go, Ruby and/or Python
it's random
team dependent
so unless someone has interviewed with your team it won't help
I got this
Unless it’s someone who works hard and starts early
when i was 18 i was thinking "what's a code?"
woke up one day and was like right i forgot i need money
True
hey folks.
Please, does anyone have an idea which companies are hiring for Fall 2023 right now?
take ddog over amazon
ur treated like a person lol
and have more impact on average
datadog over amazon any day
idk i got both
is offseason that easy to get?
Do you think Snap is?
CITADEL EASY TO MOVE 👀?
Ah wow, is this for Snap?
rip :((
Ah, it's likely to have a Fall 2023 internship for Snap?
Ah, that's excellent then.
So if you have an offer, you should likely be able move it to Fall right?

Thanks so much for the detailed reply.
Dog > banana
Realistically tho doesn’t Amazon pay more
So if tc was a rlly big factor then amazon >
its barely more tbh, unless ddog doesnt give housing
Oh meant ft
but if you dont go to ddog, will you ever find out what the dog doin?
Intern pay is usually around the same for most companies
i think name wise amazon > ddog
For juniors tho datadog might be better then
yea ive heard culture is nice
is there someone who got the final technical form but not yet receive specific date and time from ebay?
got this too. any idea what it might mean?
searching @quaint bolt comments on ddog he doesnt like product
which is understandable
maybe they reached head count?
anyone done the final group interview for RBI (intern). Never done a group interview before and not really sure what to expect
hello this is true
The cute dog logo makes up for it. Doggo > Bananas
what org in banana
i think weve talked b4 and i know you were in van lol
I feel like culture is hit or miss at larger companies, so if you hit the jackpot i understand if you stay
but for a lot of people they get absolutely shit teams
zon
fr?
yeah lol

If u read this ur banned
anybody ever done a swe/front-end apps intern interview for qualcomm? if so hmu!

This server does not condone sharing answers publicly btw so @earnest hatch i am deleting
just finished confluent oa today after they sent it this morning
Yeah I was trolling, I never pass Airbnb screen
O
SpongeBob be quivering 
@near swallow 1v1 me first 5, loser gets banned from cscareers
is it
i read teh message from Kirb :(
Rip I think LinkedIn full stack basically full
everything is just a dashboard
OS is just a dashboard 4 ppl 2 interact wit hardwar
evry dev is a frontend dev
once u acknowledg dis u wil b enlitend
AirBnB OA is not auto
Amazon vs Oracle?
20$ unironically
we need a time range though
i say no rescind within 2022
oh wait you said no rescind 😔
yes 
Yeah I’m def staying a fifth year to do ms just so I can have one more summer to find a valid internship
What’s the probability next year hiring is gonna get better
no 1 knos
no 1 can giv u a probability
dat is accurate
but i'd say 22%
Misworded it, just looking for opinions
So 78% chance in your opinion that it’ll get worse🥲
Does anyone know how to send a console log from node js into a vuejs frontend?
idk if you can do this? are you using express?
Yes I am
codesignal test cases are the bane of my fucking existence
yeah i dont think you can just send a console log, you probably have to set up endpoints and get data from express with http requests
Hey all! I applied to Riot in early Sept, got the OA early October and aced it, but haven't heard anything since. It's been over a month, is this wait time normal? I haven't gotten a rejection email but I also didn't get anything to schedule the next steps
I had a final interview 2 months ago and still haven't heard back
These companies are ridiculous
Ok thanks!
Last year the company ghosted me for 2 months after final and then offer me the position.
Sounds good, it's confusing why the wouldn't follow up after a perfect OA 🤷♂️
Did you try to follow up with them?
How would I follow up? They have only contacted me with no reply emails
damn
I've looked for recruiter contact but couldn't really find anything besides LinkedIn/Twitter profiles of recruiters, might resort to that
any more thoughts on databricks vs plaid?
Not too sure but I think Plaid has toxic culture
oh really, how so? like bad wlb?
Well teamblind gives it a good score
But I talked to som1 who had a rlly bad experience
So ignore me lol
so you think plaid is more overvalued than db
oof
what companies would y'all pick over db?
But ya their last valuation was at 90x
I'm pretty sure 40~50x is the norm for hot startups
Reppin databricks rn
would y'all pick scale ai over db and plaid?
Idk wat scale ai does lol
No they aint
they have a system for labeling data and other ml infra stuff
Ya i kno
I jus don't understand wat makes it better dan turk
Tbh u shouldn't focus too much on multipliers
Wats ev/r?
They do
I just don't kno enuf abt ai to understand
Imo I'd rank
Scale AI >=< Databricks > Plaid
does plaid have any specific issues that come to mind?
yeah i'm a junior
Just from what dom1 told me
*som1
Also I'm scared of Stripe
what did the person you know tell you about plaid?
I can't say
ah okay
why
What does pengy have 👀
i'm really not, just applied to more places probably
y'all i'm just here for advice, not to be compared to everyone else lmao
i dont get it
imo scale ai >>>>>
how bad is scale wlb/culture?
U got five rings?
Did u take it?
nope
i'd rather not say where i go to school
Did u get hrt return offer?
yeah
U don’t like quant?
i'm not sure yet, i feel like quant vs. tech is a decision i just need to make for myself but within tech i like to hear others' opinions on diff companies
How do u feel about robinhood
that was also last year so
i actually haven't put anything in the process channel this year
Do u think it’s still a good company to work at?
Can i chat with u just on how u practiced leetcode / competitive programming / programming in general?
i'm not sure, i think their ipo didn't go as well as they wanted right? / they had some controversy
I think just the GME stuff fucked them up
sure but i'm pretty busy this week so apologies in advance if i'm slow to reply
If that didn’t happen they would be good no?
i don't really know that much about robinhood sorry
me too i'd like to ask some questions on advice whenever you're free if thats okay
i'll try to get back to y'all in a few days but tbh i don't do much leetcode at all, nor do i do competitive programming
Sent a friend request. I will just occasionally chat so i wont take ur time.
just a lot of interviews so that i don't feel rusty anymore by like mid-oct
Do u apply to comapnies for practice first then apply to the ones u want?
Did you find out any new info about this or does anybody else know how things have changed after stripe's layoffs -- My recruiter was switched to a new one after the layoffs happen and now they say they want to set up a time to call to give me an update on my candidacy, It's been roughly 3 weeks after my onsites?
no not really, i feel like it's hard to balance that. but if i do like four interviews in a week and i don't care about two of them, i feel like they keep me in practice and also reduce stress for all of them
Is amazon waitlisting everyone who interviews?
Cause I have an interview coming up and Im trying to figure out if I have any chance at all
Dang I wonder how many people they expect to renege
Sounds like everyone is on their wait-list
they're faang+
or faang adjacent, different term same concept
"I work in tech"
is a recruiter
okay jennifer, time for you to log off linkedin
Should I panice now? https://www-cnbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/11/14/amazon-reportedly-plans-to-lay-off-about-10000-employees-starting-this-week.html
Wdym?

😦
I see, I shall scream like a little girl now
According to my manager at least he's an E10 so he'd def know
lmao
Lmao havent started and interns already have pip
Yes they did
my manager told me when i asked him about next years internship
E10s always know
That is just wonderful
Source : Trust me bro
Anyone else in the hiring process for Atlassian Support Engineer internship?
Actually it's source; my E10 manager
Hey Darth! What is E10?
Got an email about first round interview and highkey tripping out. It's my first interview in tech
Please Enlighten Me
supposed to be director i think
E10 DEEZ NUTS
Oh my Gosh I didnt See that Coming

ur getting laid off laid
Yo that was actually good 🤣
letss gooooo
anyone know what usually happens if you're a sophomore that applied as a 2024 and you're not actually graduating in 2024
like at the end of the internship, do the managers usually care
whats the new FAANG now that every FAANG is laying off
where can us hypebeast / simps go
No one cares if you get the job lol
nah but i know suk ineet
Oh really, so your saying they'll be okay with it and maybe give me return offer again for next year?
Yeah, plus you can always play "change of plans" card
Yea that's my plan too 💀
I assume for any job you get you're gonna get some kind of survey or way to tell them what you're looking for in terms of return via your graduation date
There's no point in lying about your grad date
you either get return intern or return full time for most companies
both are great options
Oh the situation is that I applied with 2024 and got an internship
Only reason to lie about grad date is when applying to qualify for jobs you shouldn't
and I'm asking about what would happen next year
well when are you graduating?
I'm actually graduating in May 2025
based
based on what
why would you say 2024 though
is it specifically an internship only for rising juniors?
boi
Smart move
there's more fresh/soph internships than junior ones tho 
oh its c1
fair enough then yeah i know they only hire juniors for some weird reason
Not really
well i guess i should say
mans just big brained a c1 as a sophomore
there's more targeted directly to fresh/soph than targeted to juniors/seniors explicitly
💀
Idk how tf they picked me
😭
Just built diff i guess
No I'm honestly not
Ik it sounds like I'm humble bragging, but trust me idk how tf I got in
when I saw the questionnaire, I was like "huh?"
C1 was the first place I applied to and I accidentally put May 2025 and got so sad that they were only accepting juniors and especially considering so many people got the offer
💀💀💀
Wait dam you got Facebook and Twitter as a sophomore?
Bro you’re insane
Wtf
What ur LinkedIn?
Anyone do the first phone interview for HRT Algo Dev intern
Supposedly probabilities and statistics
I thought Seattle is better?
Damn
Any tip on how to get internship during this recession?
Well thats a good advice
there are still positions opening up everyday
just try your luck with everything thats open
I still dont know how to learn from it, I got rejected nearly everywhere
same dude
are you international?
Yep
yeah shit's bad for us
I was lucky enough to go till finals for a small company
I'm hoping they give me an offer
Good luck bro 🙂 I hope we will get something this year
same to you too
And on the brighter side, recession might be wrapping up by the time we graduate
hopefully

we storming the headquarters with kung fu
how long should i wait before emailing recruiter after i had done the oa?
they didn't get back to me and it's been over a week now :(
works enough to get jobs since the school sounds enough like seattle
i know grads who have gone to fb, google, etc. from there so take that how you will
arm chips bad because nobody usses arm
idk i feel like a missing laptop isnt that likely to fly under the radar lmfao
Use an M1 
no support fro half the apps
2015 macbook air is good enoguh
apple makes good products
computer sare powerful
I used this past summer, never had any issues
Way snappier than laptops I’ve gotten at past internships which were top of the line Intel macs
And more efficient
Yeah
literally on the phone with mr mastercard rn
They’re replacing all the Intel ones
the master card
You’re not waiting for it all day and even when you are having an M1 is better bc it’s more efficient so if you like not working at your desk all the time
It holds battery life better
is amazon still hiring summer 23?
I could def tell it was snappier
probably not tbh
Also get m1 MacBook Air, that’s what all the interns used at banana
M1 Pro way too heavy to carry around all the time
this
cuz of the layoffs or smt else?
amazon has been waitlisting for the past 3 weeks
so everyone during those 3 weeks has been in the waitlist, and everyone who's in the process rn is also likely getting waitlisted
yeah
i see
so before they get to you @pulsar robin they are gonna have like 6-7 weeks worth of waitlisted people which is a lot
yeah i think so too
you can still apply but its just highly unlikely they'll get to you

I already applied just wondering what my chances are looking like
gotta pray for a new intern headcount q1 ig
not very good rn, unfortunately 😔 but worth a shot
just out of curiosity have you interviewed with them yet?
oh so ur set lmfao
have you just noticed him
we'll see after this week's layoffs lmfao
if interns survive that then we ballin 

bro gets chewed out everywhere
heard he was getting dunked on in the amz server for cheating
cant catch a break
has he tried acting bearable he wouldve swerved the csmajors equivalent of the salem witch trials if he made an effort
its been investigated
i dont think they care
bro blocks me but reads all my messages anyway
rent free
didnt someone try reporting him
why would you go through the effort
they dont care if an intern used vim or some shit when they hire en masse
tbh that's a very amazon intern thing to do
hell
the main mod guy was posting matt walsh
who
ben shapiro's transphobic son
i saw the racist tirade in the zon server
that server looks like a wasteland half the time based on my limited exposure
you talking about the ban arc or the cheating saga
wtf
dont know the details the person who posted the specifics deleted it instantly
but the zon server is on his nuts over "damning evidence"
feral cs majors
they vented fr
just want to make money and leave the rat race to spend the rest of my days fishing
that doesnt narrow it down any further
instead of practicing lc you cheated 💀 💀 💀
you guys been great i wish i met yall irl
nah not yet
yea I know
alright guys im pressing on the panic button
interns are fine im pretty sure
end times are coming
20$ says i get rescinded 
bro why did I decline apple return offer
worst case i get 20$
ngl by the sounds of it waitlist is kinda fucked until stocks pop off or smth
Same the same post on my feed
damn
@muted summit
wait this person who got rescinded was already working
i think
yeah
so not really rescind
are financial/investment companies safe in a recession
think my backup offer is fine
yeah lmfao coinbase was hella fucked
🖕 - signed, coinbase
its ok ill keep manifesting for u krishna das
omg you too??? @feral void
bestiiieee 🙈
pleae intern
i never assumed i had a chance at big companies till i surrounded myself w the geek squad in cscd
like purely by association with motivated individuals you get comfortable with setting similar goals to them
goku getting in was the final nail in the coffin
made me realize it wasnt that hard

although id really like to go back to having a regular social life instead of locking myself in a dimly lit room solving coding puzzles like a schizo

Are there anyone who doesn't receive ebay final interview date after submitting the form?
anyone do final with akuna for python

hey guys need some advice i got offers
sorry you didnt meet our performance quota

EVERYTHING FULL
Everything full
But our inboxes empty
same ^
i keep getting this person called brennan delsing tryna hit me up B)
i like playing hard to get though

wtf happened with internship pay
i feel like it doubled since last summer 😂
feel scammed
how long after u sent ur resume did u get the oa for citadel launch
intern pay for optiver has doubled since i did my internship in summer
scammed
bro this szn makes me wanna kms
Thoughts on Pinterest or robinhood ?
I came back from a part time $15/hour defense internship

Not worth, asked her out and she rejected me after final
did you go back FT?
you were the only person affected by the economy its just you
its only a recession for venom charlie
i have 8 offers alone from recruiters who dmed me for the first time this morning
im going back FT in february
everyone already knew from last year lmao. im actually a little salty about the increase. ik i shouldn't be. still am tho
i mean it makes sense. all big tech are having tons of layoffs so the incentive to hire interns is probably rather low atm
also let's not forget that the entire reason this server exists is to do exactly that 😂 thats what the process channels are for
mihari try not to mald challenge (impossible)
hahahaa
has Bog still not returned
dafuq
good, just tryna pass this shitty stats course
got my internships sorted out for next year too
wbu
i feel ya prob and stats was my worst subject in uni 
oh shit where u going?
same
but I'm still in uni
currently living like a retired elder. finished uni, starting job in feb so im just chilling and procrastinating on literally everything
even tore my pec so cant even go gym atm
msft winter and most likely goog summer
Im interviewing with Cit for summer too tho so might go there if that works out 
oh shit
tyty
LOL yeah nah I’d be doing the same, I’m so done with uni I just want to chill, go on vacation for a bit, play games
Yeahh this is it
I’m staying in Canada for FT so I wouldn’t go to any HFT anyways
its not as fun as i thought it would be
Maybe a couple years down the line I’ll jump
am so demotivated lmao
damn everyone's growing up 😦
oh icicic. then wouldn't it be smarter taking G and hoping for return?
or is there no G in canada?
from where 👀 
Yeah see this is what I was thinking
Is it worth it to go to Cit instead esp in this environment
Will have to think on it, bc Cit pay is v fat
all HFT pay is fucking insane this year
even optiver europe is paying 20k/m for interns
????????
I guess it’s only fun for like a month or two
time to pick up typical hobbies like rock climbing and woodworking
dude i thought i'd finish so many personal projects
am still on project 1 and cant be fucked to finish it
that may be true but you'll have to job hunt again for FT instead of just getting a nice return
Wtf?? Europe?
but i mean ur probably rly used to it now so might not be that horrible
yeh its insane
jane and HRT london also gave out absolutely insane offers this y
Yeah that’s the issue, I’m gonna hope for msft FT RO at the very least, and maybe try to get Cit Toronto
msft over G?
LOL mood tbh, this why you join a class
or get msft FT so u can do cit internship?
^
Def not but goog winter hiring is fucked
been gimming 6d/week just to do smth but tore pec now so i dont even have that left
So I moved from winter to summer
ic that makes sense
yeh sounds like a plan to me man hope it goes well ❤️
cit on CV is goated as fuck as well
A lot of my friends are in Seattle yes 
so def not a bad idea
buuut @quaint bolt dont forget
Can’t you do Cit 16 weeks?
ik personally from optiver
having previous HFT on ur CV is actually sometimes a minus
not a plus
when u apply to other HFT
to them it signals u didnt get a return offer
wait really?
Bruh that’s a rip
i heard it just means you wanna go elsewhere? Don't they just ask you if you got return?
I guess esp true if I don’t return LOL
Really? Don’t they allow it for coop?
anyone else get an update from walmart
i mean they dont ask u anything when just looking at CV
hahahah
cause like what if you want to go NYC instead of Chicago?
oh i c ic
im just talking about CV stage
i talked to my manager about it and she said that seeing other HFT is not always a good sign
Interesting
often it means they didnt get return and try another HFT
interesting
Well if I don’t go to a HFT FT, the next time I’ll be back is when I’m a senior swe so it shouldn’t matter
Oh and you asked where
Prolly Jump, HRT or JS
wouldn't they still rather interview someone who worked at another HFT vs someone who has never?
yeah thats totally fine
i dont know that much detail. we had a couple interns that where Ex-HFT interns as well. so it cant be that bad. that's just what manger told me when i asked once
ah i see
understandable
cause I guess I picked my internship thinking it would help FT 😥 , but hearing that just gives second doubts lol
i mean thats just the opinion of one manager at one company
doesnt have to be a globally shared opinion
i mean it does make sense
does cit not extend into fall?
or how long is cit in fall?
many of these ex-HFt interns ended up not getting a return offer
I just moved my coop schedule from fall to summer
oh i gotchu
@quaint bolt have u tried HRT?
just curious. how many coops are you required to do to graduate at waterloo?
pay is similar, sometimes even higher and has much better WLB
problem is getting into HRT 😂
yeh that's why im asking if he applied hahaha
friend of mine is there and he said its pretty chill
since when does discord have fucking forum posts. never seen that lmao.
I have not 
just try both
Should help
wagon are u.... the 🐐
that sounds irreversible, not a decision to make on a whim
farming offers like its farmwille
blog post advertiser says competing offers got her a hrt reply @quaint bolt
its his last year of doing internships, might as well
Yeah that was the plan
Banana man
go get it ❤️
Cit still ends up being way more no? Than goog? Even with it being 11 weeks
Goog is 14-weeks max
Dyk Cit base intern pay
Like w/o competing JS/HRT
I c
Welp don’t wanna count my eggs already so
feel like thats almost low
that's what optiver pays in europe
US notoriously pays more
i feel like 50k min for cit
yeh but HFT is diff
Either eu caught up or eu internships are longer?
na eu is 8 weeks
optiver us paying 28k/m
Tru
also it says cit is paying 20k/m + 10k signon
is IMC really outpaying cit
by 10k?
thats ridiculous
imo i'd say 50k is what u can expect for internship
yeh intern pay is insane atm for HFT
like where does this end?
will it be 40k next year or what 
double until u get 100k/m for internship 😎 i'll be intern for life
imo only if u have counter offers
jump just matches
code some games
swear the ideal life is to get quant internship and be a phd student till 35
if u have no counter offers their pay is usually lower from what i heard
100k yearly salary and get to be a phd student
jump dev culture >>>
it's fully automated no?
i think they have both
That is no life

yeh i heard they have good culture
sorry correction
imo if u have no counter offers and didnt have an insane interview, ur offer is generally lower than the rest
the ideal life is 10 leetcodes a day and make your living off of tutoring ppl for intert
but if u have counter offer and good interview they basically pay whatever
but also means that pay VARIES greatly even on same level
also c++ code. no ocaml
@amber obsidian when you flying to bellevue btw
the functional programming simps will lynch you
had to write a compiler in ocaml. its..... idk not my cup of tea
dont enjoy it very much. not as horrible as haskell tho
but i also hate c++ so 🤷♂️
c++ 
some python, some c#. whatever tool is best for its job
but mainly its all c++
HFT in java 
wat
Okay why are all the HFTs C++ simps, if Java fast enough for dynamodb it should be fast enough for HFT 
how can they be latency kings in java
latency and jitter is king in HFT
java introduces both
2sigma uses Java too
Hmmm I guess it’s not just speed then interesting
seems like they do both
no x86 lite
had a compiler design course, where we wrote a compiler for a fictional lang called "oat". like a C equivalent
but compiling down to x86 lite
rather basic but was fun
oke as i expected
IMC uses c++ for their actual hot loop, low latency trading
java code is just the computations etc that then feed the rules for the trading software
yes, thats why i didnt trust the java call
or i guess c competes but it takes longer to write (pls tell me if this is inaccurate)
dont think there's a difference in speed between c and c++ once it actually runs
2s laughs in java
also u dont use any of the features in c++ that add latency
is 2s hft
like virtual functions and whatnot
i thot it was normie hedge fund
oh true
i dont wanna live in the US
its a hedge fun
im from switzerland, going to amsterdam for optiver tho
all the stuff u see on reddit shitting on america is overstated UNLESS u compare it to netherlands or Scandinavia
then its all true
so ur choice is valid
or switzerland for that matter. i love living here
i lived in SF for a month, and did multiple tours of the US
never been
its nice to visit, i'd never wanna live there tho
cant speak on swizerland
its quite nice u should give it a visit 😄
what shud i do there
also do they habe cheap hostels cuz thats all i live for now
beign able to survive in another country on like 25 bucks a day
laughs in norway
im sure u can find smth affordable tho. also idk. it has rly nice nature and some nice cities
zurich was apparently more expensive than NY in 2020
or smth like that i saw it on a list once idk how true that is tho 
not sure if that'll be worth it tho
idk if i travel i wanna be relaxed. i'd rather safe up and spend a lil more
but thats just me
thats fair enough
im the opposite
i travel expensive even if i cant afford it
yours is probably smarter than mine hahaha
also chec dm
Wtf I submitted the gap OA and they denied me cause I didn’t submit
Who should I contact at gap
Search up Gap assessment in your email and someone's email should be in there as a point of contact
Gotcha
did anyone get the ddog beta oa
beta
"beta" Tf
What platform and how was it?
literally
It means you're a guinea pig for their new OA 
If I got rejected for atlassian final new grad 😩 could I ask my recruiter to go through the intern process as I am considering staying an extra year for a MS CS
Probably not but you can try asking
yea my friends business offer got yoinked
are they rescinding intern offers now?
yup
I think I saw u mention it in the server but do you know what aws wwco is
ye
wtf is it lol is it a stable org
you're probably in wwco professional services, they have a lot of customer engineering teams, so you'd be working on creating custom products/features for specific AWS customers
yeah it's definitely stable
also chill bc it's on the sales side
i work very closely with that org and the wlb seems pretty good honestly
doesn't aws usually have a specific swe intern application?
people kinda just do the work when they feel like it
its not a strict 9-5 tho slack/email hours are 9-5
Interesting, I think it was aws wwco partner systems or something
But nice yeah doesn’t sound bad hopefully it’s chill
hmm gimme two secs
Yeah but Amazon offers can get placed into aws
did the aws swe intern applications already open up and I missed it?
cuz I can't find it rn
@hallow scroll it's the AWS Partner Marketplace
it should be chill honestly you still roll up in the sales org which is actually good because it's focused on customer delivery not like... arbitrary deadlines
i doubt you'll be working more than 30h/week
nah hes fr
i saw some rescinds earlier today for amazon
nah NG
Trolling again
anyone assigned to amazon books/goodreads
nah hes fr
oh new grad got ti
Said the same thing yesterday and was trolling tho
It can be, but doesn’t have to be
Oh interesting I just looked it up tysm sounds nice actually
yeah but I am backing him up so even if he was trolling he is spitting facts
hopefully stripe doesn't rescind intern offers lol
Applying through amazon normal can get placed in aws, aws also has its own pipeline for certain roles
ye you'll be fine, just know you'll probably be in a remote team w a remote manager
which works well bc they dont gaf if ur placed in a specific place
Proof?
Have u seen anyone have the email
if u wanna do fte u could just take nyc pay and go to idk oklahoma
This is actually perfect lol I’m nyc but I wanna work out of state to save on rent
i saw some linkedin posts for rescinded NG SDE
Less commute days is fine by me
Goodreads and Amazon Books
chances are you can choose when to go in
which office are you in
Oh ur going to zon juster?
Yes
Pog alright ty for the info
Aws wwco partner systems it was what me and vp product were talking about
Yeah
yeah its safe
I think probably devices would be the only real scary one
For rescinding
even after hiring freeze

because theyre pushing hard to continue getting 50% YoY
Is AWS as a whole relatively safe or only certain parts of it
i'd say certain services are probably less safe
I’m pretty sure most of AWS will be fine
or internal tools teams
Is sales a big source of revenue for them
but most is fine
yeah
Yeah sales is big
Pog
anyone complete first round interview w/ citadel launch ?
the customers in the org I work with generate 50% of AWS revenue
i have mine soon and want to know about the process
and it's a team 3k? maybe
it's relatively small compared to the rest of AWS
but it's a massive income generator
ProServ supports all the infrastructure that's not like... services
Sounds pretty safe from trimming workforce then
so partner network, certifications, internal tools, etc
you're on the partner network, which i'd say is basically as critical as can be
yeah
and it should be chill as long as you have a good manager
everyone i've met adjacent is super cool n nice
From what I’ve heard/seen and from what my mentor told me at zon
The more critical the team, the better the WLB/less stressful the work is
Honestly... yeah
So the most highly established and crucial teams won’t be doing those 60hr/week crazy shit
I'd take g but I lean a lot more towards tech
If you're in a position that's business critical / running a whole org of 1000 people... your job will be a good 40-45h a week
But not more
They don't wanna kill you
EC2 i've heard is one of the more chill teams in AWS
just has on call
As everyone already said at some point on this server, finance "prestige" is a bubble
Everyone knows google, everyone in this server knows 2s
how was it
Big difference
People in my team were putting out PRs and shit at like 5 am
Or midnight sometimes
oof
Pretty wild
It was good tbh, as an intern at least it was fine
Nah I doubt it bc they’d be online all day
And still be pushing PRs super late or super early
There were 2 big deadlines/releases during this summer
sales side (customer delivery engineering) is chill af
One was the week after my internship ended tho
because its just customer happiness
Right
Interesting
The team seemed pretty happy tho no one seemed overly stressed and overworked from what I could tell at least
Who knows though
The team was just about a year old by the end of the summer so still pretty new
Nah lol
EKS is elastic kubernetes services
Basically aws solution to kubernetes lol
There’s a few different sub teams under EKS as well
wait i was on eks too, did you have an offsite in seattle?
Yes I did
were you demoing there
Yes
I was the last presentation lmfao
