[white urchin]

they aren't even responding

[hushed charm]

good luck getting the offer

its brutal out here

ah

[hallow scroll]

krishna when youre at the top of the waitlist ill renege so you can get the offer

[hushed charm]

the dreaded "sorry, this position is filled" email coming 😭

oh im talking about pinterest recruiter moving phone to later

[white urchin]

yes

[hushed charm]

implies that theres other candidates in pipeline before

[white urchin]

like a couple of weeks

[hallow scroll]

people use pto whenever theres holidays

if theres a holiday they will use pto for the whole week thats probably why they had to move it

people do this all the time

at my internship rn half the team was off a whole week before our quarterly week off

mfs got 2 weeks off work basically

juda got an offer last year

i think

[marble bronze]

do you guys know if ebay canada is auto oa?

[ivory ocean]

guys

am I trippin if I sent my availability for an interview in about 7 days ago and haven't heard back and I sent 2 follow ups so far

kinda need it rushed cuz of deadlines but i don't wanna seem pushy

[sand coral]

Is this for SIG?

[royal berry]

eBay us is auto oa

[hardy patrol]

is addepar auto im still waiting

[burnt edge]

has anyone done the goldman superday for intern summer2023

[fast folio]

lmfao SIG took more than 4 weeks to schedule my final

[sand coral]

How long after 1st tech screen did they respond?

[fast folio]

lemme check

09/22 - phone screen
10/11 - First round
11/14 - Final

[unkempt bloom]

if I have 2 interviews, but they are all at places with competitive interviewing processes (FAANG+), Should I be applying to Backup roles? Should I just be grinding Leetcode?

[sand coral]

Just had first round today. Looks like I’ll have to wait a while for (possible) final round

[jade elm]

how long it took after OA to hear back?

[sand coral]

Over a month. I thought I got ghosted

[fast folio]

yeah i thought for sure i was ghosted after 1st round

[marble bronze]

thank u

i'm getting the feeling ebay canada isn't because it took them a bit of time and i had a recruiter contact but i could be wrong

[jade elm]

ahh, i only applied to see if they would do fall

[sinful locust]

no

i mean i applied last season and didn’t get an OA

id assume its not auto

[vagrant rain]

not auto I think

for ebay us or cad

[scenic sluice]

Stop applying when u got offer or keep going ?

[dusky stump]

@timid wraith Hey when did you do your technical interview for doordash?

[scenic sluice]

Not “big tech / FAANG” btw

[half island]

keep going

[floral panther]

https://leetcode.com/discuss/interview-question/2712819/Pinterest-Online-Assessment/1649123 how do you solve this

[tribal palm]

not yet

[floral panther]

4

[gray wolf]

I feel like the suboptimal would be fine to pass 4

I wonder what other approaches are even better

yeah u could probably make a list of intervals that are covered, then bin search to find nearest intervals and check them

seems to go along with the "you want to build a few blocks"

but then u would have to coalesce intervals

what r other approaches u can think of?

[scenic thunder]

Anyone finished Pinterest MLE interviews and waiting to hear back/heard back?

[burnt edge]

thanks for ur help

[hardy patrol]

90% of csmajors get an internship before burning out

[still pawn]

[marble bronze]

[round spire]

Have u taken HRT's Algo Dev final?

[hearty river]

No u don’t

[cinder girder]

https://tenor.com/view/stillesque-gif-25544894

Cisco

At my uni we need to take calc I, Lin alg I, one second year or above math of your choosing and discrete maths I and II (III in honours)

[sly copper]

cs is a branch of math

[cinder girder]

discretes being arguably the hardest courses in our degree

I'm taking either Lin alg II or maths of gambling

There is a 3rd year course on how gambling works and the stats of it

I'm taking 2nd year DSA and then Discrete Maths I

[haughty ice]

any open internships to apply to

[cinder girder]

Machine language is cool I've done it in HS

[haughty ice]

just appliued to paypal and visa

[cinder girder]

We did assembly and some C as well

Was pre cool

All my comp courses and maths so far are A+, one of my electives is a B

Each quiz is worth 20% of my grade it sucks

And you have to answer the question, cannot skip

so much for trying to make my first term in uni an A+

[vagrant rain]

depends on position

[cinder girder]

we have to submit our grades as part of co-op applications in Canada

[vagrant rain]

google checks if ur at least 3.0

[cinder girder]

They don't care that much tbh

But also if they just want to check

It's there

I get to disclude 4 courses out of 10 from my GPA for co-op applications though

[vagrant rain]

most quant will prob ask for high gpa

and any more research based positions

[cinder girder]

I'm never going quant

[vagrant rain]

most swe are pretty indifferent

[cinder girder]

Too mathy

[vagrant rain]

yeah its pretty tough if u don't go to certain schools

[digital bone]

any tips for msft explorer final round? got it tmrw. I'm a sophomore who's taking DSA

[vagrant rain]

interesting

for the bigger firms? or smaller ones?

oh he get an offer?

[floral panther]

https://leetcode.com/discuss/interview-question/2712819/Pinterest-Online-Assessment/1649123 how do you solve this

[vagrant rain]

just use a map

get an iterator to the lower bound and upperbound and check if they are equal or not

[cinder girder]

Nah waiting on decision

It was pretty comfortable but l felt a little bit babied as I am a first year

So we'll see

[vagrant rain]

gl man

cisco freshman pretty impressive

[mild compass]

source?

[hallow scroll]

this cap

google doesnt care about your gpa

i have like a 1.9

[robust meteor]

As long as Leetcode good

[muted summit]

@hallow scroll you in project match? 👀

[hallow scroll]

I’m in rejection match

I got a dp problem and failed technical

[muted summit]

[vagrant rain]

I saw a r/csmajors post where the recruiter asked for unofficial transcripts

oh now that I think abt it

could just be a STEP thing

[hallow scroll]

nah they do that

they just dont care what your gpa is

[kind lagoon]

^

should i send in my 730 codesignal to ebay

[quaint bolt]

Mfw I get on my first team match call and mf asks me what my gpa is

[muted summit]

yea they ask for everyone

don't scare me wagons

[quaint bolt]

you don’t have nitro anymore

[quaint bolt]

amazon layoffs?

am i screwd

ggwp

[vagrant rain]

they're letting go non-essential first tho

I think hr and like alexa

[quaint bolt]

Hmmmm that’s a tough one but I’d prolly do LinkedIn just to be safe. I honestly feel like roblox is burning money there’s no way they’re keeping up that kinda TC in this environment indefinitely

[hallow scroll]

LINKEDIN

[vagrant rain]

roblox hired exclusively from my school this semester

[muted summit]

have you gone for linkedin before wagons?

[vagrant rain]

kinda interesting

[torn fulcrum]

yo i got my ebay final tmr for swe intern; has anyone done it?

[quaint bolt]

do you go to Waterloo?

[vagrant rain]

yep

[hardy patrol]

730 is my cap

[kind lagoon]

perfect

i submit it

[quaint bolt]

I didn’t apply

They did?

They were interviewing thru ww tho no?

[muted summit]

i wanna work at linkedin maybe next winter

[quaint bolt]

LOL

[kind lagoon]

loo mf

[vagrant rain]

yeah I was interviewing with them

rejected after final

they def gave out some offers

sadness

[kind lagoon]

real

[quaint bolt]

real

who let them in

[vagrant rain]

I will delete myself

[quaint bolt]

Do it

They weren’t letting non-loo kids do off-season for a bit

But then they opened up I guess

[vagrant rain]

hard to say

maybe they didn't fill headcount at loo

[quaint bolt]

Same

[muted summit]

the g project matching timeline lowkey stressing me out

[quaint bolt]

g winter is fucked

I’m glad I moved to summer lol

[muted summit]

im wondering if i can start late august

and do amazon in the summer

or how do start dates work

[cinder girder]

I would have gotten absolutely screwed for LC 💀 but ye I didn't outright say it but he saw on resume

[quaint bolt]

There’s gonna be less projects but you can try

I wouldn’t risk it personally

[vagrant rain]

bruh I wish I can move my coop

[quaint bolt]

You can if you’re fourth-year

I did

[vagrant rain]

I ain't

[muted summit]

i put may start dates and the august ones, hbu @autumn maple

[quaint bolt]

L

Skill issue fr

[vagrant rain]

I'm not in eng

dd

even worse

[tulip aspen]

bro is chilling

future google right here

[muted summit]

same

if i got a may start date offer ill take

[vagrant rain]

ye ik

but like

[muted summit]

but if i get august one then its chill

[vagrant rain]

I don't have anything to drop it for rn

[tulip aspen]

wassup krishna

[muted summit]

@tulip aspen the prophet

[quaint bolt]

Most offers are gonna be May start dates

[scenic sluice]

god i'

god i'm so fucking bad at leet code

[vagrant rain]

its like a 5min walk

[scenic sluice]

like so fucking bad

[muted summit]

yeah thats what i was thinking too

[scenic sluice]

i've grinded

i've done cp

i've done lc

i've taken algorithms class

[tulip aspen]

need more lc

[quaint bolt]

https://tenor.com/view/bear-police-bear-cute-stop-gif-13583674

[scenic sluice]

and i can't take oas for shit

competitive programming

[quaint bolt]

do google OA to feel better about yourself

It’s brain dead

[scenic sluice]

i'm ghosted with cracked resume

[vagrant rain]

its ok man

everybody chokes sometimes

[scenic sluice]

like when do you get good at LC

[vagrant rain]

I still choke on dp

[scenic sluice]

i haven't made it past a single OA in 2 years of applying

[muted summit]

if google oa is that free then surely the screening is just a lot tougher right

same my lc count is 2472 but i still suck

[scenic sluice]

right i'll get on this

[quaint bolt]

the final can be way tougher than most other big tech finals

[scenic sluice]

i guess i shouldn't have school maxxed and LC maxed in stead

[quaint bolt]

it’s all rng

[scenic sluice]

school maxing means nothign

[muted summit]

yea thats true

[vagrant rain]

my friend walked into amazon interview and got 2sum

like

[muted summit]

i got a med/hard on my 3rd but i clutched it up somehow

[vagrant rain]

and I apply for random insurance company and get lc hard

[quaint bolt]

But in general goog final harder than other big tech final for the most part

[vagrant rain]

like ok

[muted summit]

yea i agree

[scenic sluice]

wasted my resources studying / leadership roles now my LC isn't enough for the bar

[muted summit]

bc of problem difficulty and communication too

[quaint bolt]

My databricks final was easier than goog lol

[muted summit]

they really care about communication and how well u collaborate with the interviewer

which is what i think i excelled at

[scenic sluice]

hwo

[quaint bolt]

Bro destroyer and shri

[sly copper]

apparently people actually look through them

[quaint bolt]

Change your pfps

[kind lagoon]

for internship? no shot

[quaint bolt]

I can’t tell you two apart

[kind lagoon]

my questions were p easy

[vagrant rain]

its actually so illegal

[muted summit]

this been my pfp for a while

[quaint bolt]

Then you got lucky

[tulip aspen]

they are a couple

[vagrant rain]

just getting rid of all standards

[tulip aspen]

it’s their matching couple pic

[scenic sluice]

is LC still going to be a thing in 3 years

i'm doubtful

[muted summit]

i heard that too, i commented out my code just in case

[scenic sluice]

they can only get so hard

[kind lagoon]

no the next thing we get is system design oas

[scenic sluice]

better than lc

[muted summit]

you have to write in the text box how to design ticket master

[scenic sluice]

never been asked system design tho

[muted summit]

you have 20 minutes

[sly copper]

I was referring to the resumes

[scenic sluice]

i would prefer this to LC any day of the week

[kind lagoon]

lc style system design

[muted summit]

ohhh yeah i heard that

[kind lagoon]

the arrivecan app

[vagrant rain]

3 rounds of oas, plus take home project plus 5 rounds of interviews plus recreate our company and bring it to ipo and bring us the receipt

[muted summit]

resume before internship boutta be all take home projects

[scenic sluice]

stg at one company i talked to 3 different recruiters essentially reading my resume

like wyy

[quaint bolt]

same

[scenic sluice]

this is the way

[kind lagoon]

for a startup one time i had to design an database reader, clean up a bunch of their data, and calculate + visualize a bunch of shit -> 10hrs and still rejected

^

[scenic sluice]

how do you get good at lc

[quaint bolt]

this why I didn’t do roblox OA lmao can’t be bothered

[scenic sluice]

but you get to play roblox

gaming resume screen

[muted summit]

study dsa and do the famous leetcode questions

[scenic sluice]

epic games u have to crank 90s

[scenic sluice]

done

[muted summit]

and look at leetcode discuss and ingrain the optimal solutions in ur brain

[kind lagoon]

i hate proctored oas

[scenic sluice]

i've done like 80% of b75 and studied dsa already

[muted summit]

i used to not be able to do any questions

i looked at solutions

and then did them later

and things made sense

[scenic sluice]

ah i missed this step

[muted summit]

then i did the related questions and could usually do them

[scenic sluice]

but like

i got school and it's too late to LC for this summer

[muted summit]

also one thing that's fun

make your own questions

and solve it

that helps u a lot too if u like algs

[scenic sluice]

algs is boring af

[muted summit]

it'll help you get better tho

[scenic sluice]

but that's also largely in part because i'm not good at it, i can see it being enjoyable

[muted summit]

yeah you gotta force yourself at the start

it's gonna be annoying since the questions will feel pretty difficult

[scenic sluice]

yeah i've been on this stage for 2 years

[muted summit]

but with anything, the more time you put in, the better and more confident you'll feel

you just need to be consistent with it

[scenic sluice]

yeah true

[vagrant rain]

what year r u

[scenic sluice]

junior

[vagrant rain]

is that 3rd?

not american

[muted summit]

yea

[scenic sluice]

ya, technically 4th since i transferred but i grad in may 2024

5 yearer

[vagrant rain]

the internship process is kinda stupid for u guys I think

u have to apply when ur in 2nd year

[scenic sluice]

wym

[vagrant rain]

or like ur starting 3rd year

so u've only done like up to 2nd year stuff

[scenic sluice]

what country are you and how is it different

[scenic sluice]

yeah i agree, that's why graduating in 5 years kind of cheat code cause u essentially get 2 summers to intern and more time to gain exprience

[vagrant rain]

like we have 5 year program with coop

[scenic sluice]

some us schools do this as well

[vagrant rain]

yeah I'm aware

I'm referring to more like

traditional 4 year programs

Hi everyone. Is it okay to reapply to Palantir, as soon as after rejection ?

[hallow scroll]

I mean you can but you might not hear back

Most companies have a way to filter out applicants who have already interviewed recently

Salad is not here anymore

On to greener pastures

[wooden hazel]

if I am trying to push an offer offseason, is it smart to mention other offers or just use some bs reason

[hallow scroll]

No

[proud crag]

ur grandpa broke his hip and youre the only one in the family close enough to take care of him

[wooden hazel]

ok ill find some good reason and be quiet about other offers

[lavish jay]

did everyone in that amazon waitlist sheet get the email saying you're qualified or whatever

smodge

[bleak storm]

anyone did with uniswap oa?

[proud crag]

there is a messy divorce between your parents and you need to be there for both of them

i can make more excuses if u need

[wooden hazel]

i don't lol

[shrewd cosmos]

How many rounds is tesla autopilot

[long slate]

It’s been four weeks after my Pinterest final, does anyone know how long they take to get back with a decision?

[near swallow]

U need to drive jmook to the local cuz he has no car

U need to drive jmook to the national so he can meditate on the way

[proud crag]

i need to give jmook a back rub after his 10th consecutive heartbreaking loss vs hmessiah

(real story i think tafo gave him massage after the zelda fair set)

[near swallow]

Are u one of those weirdos who talks to players at the tourney

[strong ember]

I got rejected next day

[near swallow]

at an old smash con i played frendlies with m2k

[near swallow]

Yeah it’s ok i have selfies with a lot of em from an old apex

[proud crag]

[near swallow]

But it does feel weird

[proud crag]

I HAVENT talked to you in a while

Chilling

playing the new war zone

That sucks

Did you get both offers rescinded?

true

damn that sucks

It’s tough right now, but try to not think about it too much, if you can it’d probably be nice to spend time on something else

If you ever wanna vent or something my dms are open

[proud crag]

@gentle latch on the positive side i know to short any company that takes you as an employee now

[earnest hatch]

My DMs are open for you to DM me whichever company you end up working for next so I know to avoid it

[hallow scroll]

ITS OK JUDA ME 2

[proud crag]

companies should pay juda to not join them

please dont

we need zon to stay afloat or else the major collapses

[crisp berry]

imagine if goku got rescinded

[obsidian sedge]

I'll rescind YOU

[gray wolf]

F

congrats on better offers 🙂

[somber crystal]

Thanks 🙏

[proud crag]

they priced that in. its called "insurance"

[novel obsidian]

is tesla just strictly in person now

[wicked lodge]

fam when did u get ur offer

i just did my final interview like yesterday LMAO

[proud crag]

you can be remote for hours 41-80 of the work week

according to elon

[novel obsidian]

damn yeah im asking cuz im requesting to change from in person to remote

[somber crystal]

mine is prolly cuz I tried moving my offer, I think everyone in the cycle already is good

[gray wolf]

how was the final?

I'm tryna get an interview at ddog now

they always reject me no matter what i do lol

[wicked lodge]

everyone in the cycle? like anyone who did interview?

[gray wolf]

yeah

[somber crystal]

yea prolly

[wicked lodge]

final was ok, but i fucked up time complexity LMAO 😭

[gray wolf]

it happens, okay is still better than bad lol

[wicked lodge]

[gray wolf]

likely turns out good tbh

praying for at least an interview lol

[devout jewel]

same here

[wicked lodge]

for 2023 summer?

[prisma flax]

i got rejected there for my personality

[gray wolf]

lol yeah idk I get rejected for probably the way I answer the application question lmfao

w

[scenic sluice]

how do yall get cracked interviews what is the secret

i have a good resuem

yeah i use jakes anon

i can post my resume in #1019675142248468601 if you want to look at it, i think it's pretty good though

[static spindle]

send me the link once you find it lol

[gray wolf]

I assume you've seen the github repo for the non-course version right?

(definitely a good starting spot)

im not sure, I kinda just go along with processes as their thrown at me

if its codesignal thats good tho, I lucked out with a good score a while back

@wicked lodge any info on this?

making a perfect ATS resume is kinda harder than it seems

some of the shit they use is pretty braindead

ah I mean format wise

I thought u were talking abt ATS parsing

yeah that's what I was tryna get at

I was working on some resume parsing shit at my last internship and there was super weird shit going on, like if it couldn't determine ur location it would list u in bermuda lmao

[static spindle]

🤨 then why tf not use jack's with latex

[gray wolf]

^

[split torrent]

Hackerrank

[torn gull]

is the font latex uses publicly available to download

and use via word

or do you just use separate font

Looks good. Only recommendation is to drop the math minor

[scenic sluice]

why

[cold path]

Math is cringe

[scenic sluice]

like in school or on the resume

[cold path]

School

[scenic sluice]

i got 1 more class left

demon time

[cold path]

Also I lied math is cool and sexy

Ppl should just be math majors instead of cs

[scenic sluice]

true

i wish i did, i just like coding

[scenic sluice]

math majors don't get mech keyboards tho

[cold path]

Why would u want that

Normal keyboards r better

[quaint bolt]

usaco

[digital bone]

nvm

[wicked lodge]

nope it was hackerrank

at least for me when i got it october

[quaint bolt]

You

[wooden shard]

Got the same

Should be final

[static spindle]

if you applied to multiple roles, you would get a new email

i think it says not to take it though, not sure

[tulip aspen]

when mindgeek open roles

[astral dew]

I mean they could've gotten EM approval...

I'm still annoyed 😭 they asked me what some of the flexbox properties are

And what they do

[real idol]

The thing I don't get is why people are filling in false data on levels? It's not like they gain anything other than confusing people, right?

[wheat void]

most of it for me was just live coding

first they do behavioural questions, then coding

at least thats what it was for me last year

first round?

my first round was pretty chill

question was not too hard (very simple memoization / dp )

ah that was a slightly harder leetcode for me

but again idk if they changed anything

only weird thing was, that there were 2 interviewers

yep

felt kinda weird tho hahaha

just having one dude being basically mute

was fine tho all my interviewers were nice

[hot grove]

how'd it go?

[short moon]

Hey does anyone know of any places that still have openings where I can start applying. Was kinda banking that I’d get a offer from somewhere and I didn’t yet

[sudden tulip]

robinhood application is closed right

@honest spire what position did u apply to

yo can u slide the link

[wooden shard]

No I have 2 technical rounds for mine

[karmic path]

apple recruiter still hasn't followed up with me after the first phone, even tho she said she would by yesterday

is that a bad sign

like she said everybody would get followed up with

[vagrant rain]

I heard a couple similar cases with friends

rumour is a hiring freeze?

[devout jewel]

Hiring freeze for full time

interns are not on hiring freeze from what I know

[vagrant rain]

no they were applying for intern

recruiter reached out about interview no followup

[wise geode]

I have a phone for them tmmr so hopefully u should be good 👍

[karmic path]

yeah I hope so too

I think my first phone went decently well? It was purely technical, basically just solving LCs of increasing difficulty with execution disabled. Solved 3 in 45 min with full explanations.

[devout jewel]

Apple known to cap on meeting deadlines

btw

[karmic path]

wdym by that?

[hallow scroll]

They’re slow

It took them like a week after my phone to give me final and after final it took them awhile to respond even tho recruiter said I would get feedback soon

I wouldn’t sweat it

[devout jewel]

if they say they gonna give u update on tuesday, they dont always follow that

[karmic path]

oh shit

well I hope they do soon cuz it's literally stressing me so much

[empty pond]

how quickly does citadel respond after virtual onsite?

[ivory ocean]

Guys

What does it mean if a company asks for your availability for final then goes AWOL for 8 days

😦

They only asked for 2 weeks worth of availability so they’re running out

[hallow scroll]

If it’s sig apparently it took some guy like a month to get his final scheduled lol

[sand coral]

SIG took 6 business days to schedule my 1st round. I would just send them another email with updated availability

[earnest hatch]

I would suggest following up since it's been a week

[formal gust]

Anyone hear back from Unity after OA?

[livid fog]

Anyone hear back from Robinhood after oA?

[glad remnant]

snowflake oa?

[ivory ocean]

Fuck okay well that still cheers me up tho

[ivory ocean]

I did yesterday

[ivory ocean]

I did yesterday

Ty guys

Especially @hallow scroll

[glad remnant]

lol i got the same question on snowflake

i just hardcoded it

15/15 cases with hardcoding

nt, did you do it with dp?

the question was to remove m-1 rows, to attain the max value after doing this operation right?

hmm, i though this was def a dp

was wrong ig

[gloomy plover]

fuck lol just when i activated my linkedin premium 1 month free trial

[potent crane]

what has happened to linkedin

can anyone see their connections?

[sly copper]

Their overpaid interns pushed to prod

[north portal]

damn

they gone

[potent crane]

can you see your connections or is it just me?

[north portal]

no

i cant

[potent crane]

okay

[gloomy plover]

Fuck yeah

What a good time

Elon treatment

[crystal agate]

it was a review of the hackerrank, some debugging, and some OOP questions for mine. Was overally pretty easy

[astral dew]

LinkedIn premium just be saying anything 😭

[gloomy plover]

Premium users raise up

[astral dew]

Premium is overpriced imo

$40 to see who viewed my profile?

[modern geyser]

Has anyone interviewed with Sirius XM for backend role? How's the process like after their video interview?

[fierce vector]

how far out do people schedule their interviews? 1-2 weeks?

[astral dew]

1 week probably a good time to get prepared. 2 weeks if u really need the extra time, but you'll also be pushing it with 2 weeks

[fierce vector]

yea just worried position will be filled up by then

[earnest hatch]

The earlier the better, but if you know you're unprepared it's better to push it back as far as needed

[astral dew]

Def do 1 week or less then if ur comfortable

[clever grail]

it says i have -1 connections lmfao

[potent crane]

okay it's back working now

i just checked

[earnest hatch]

Everyone unfollowed you and then some more

[hearty river]

[pure pewter]

I seriously do not know how much interning at deloitte under solutions engineering will set me back

anyone have any experience?

[crystal agate]

Honestly pretty surface level stuff, what is abstraction, what is blank, they also review your implementation of the hackerrank. There should’ve been one OOP section where they do a deep dive

[fast folio]

why would it set u back?

[paper solstice]

anyone else get waitlisted for cockroach labs 2023 summer?

[honest vale]

i have amazon sde interview tomorrow anyone have any advice TT shitting my pants currently

[mild aspen]

I got an OOD question

[hearty river]

[mild aspen]

So maybe look over that for like an hour

But focus mostly on LPs at this point

[bright elbow]

[earnest hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/pepe-pepe-the-frog-gif-5699856

[honest vale]

[hallow scroll]

Yahkuanw

[gusty sluice]

dm

[storm thistle]

might fuck around and take the wock to poland

[hallow scroll]

Real shit

[violet violet]

Obvious but make sure to brush up on Amazon Leadership principles, and know Big O notation for space and time complexity

Don't be afraid to ask questions and if u don't know syntax or something its fine just ask

[trail cove]

its always day 1

[ivory ocean]

Trouble tracker trouble tracker trouble tracker

Plz tell me your email read “I’m sorry but I have to decline as my heart knows that AdrenalynGT is more fit for the role than I”

So u cheated on the unproc?

[steel moon]

Kek

[ivory ocean]

Also am I the only one who feels like Amazon LP are just generic things that should be addressed in any interview answer

[steel moon]

I got an 822 on proctored and i can confirm those questions r slightly harder than practice ones

[ivory ocean]

Oh I see makes sense

[bleak shuttle]

codesignal score is q4 dependent for me as well

sometimes it's easy so i get 800+

most of the time, it's this case

[ivory ocean]

Ur so goated n3 never let anyone get you down

[royal rapids]

anyone done the hirevue for goldman toronto? what was your timeline?

[honest vale]

?

would you say behavioral or technical is more important for the amazon interview

[frigid gate]

tbh beha

[honest vale]

like would i still have a chance if i don’t finish the tech q?

[frigid gate]

yes

do't worry

I have offer with just sub optimal solution

in final

[honest vale]

okok

thanks for your advice 😩

[honest vale]

what tech question did you get also

[frigid gate]

design question

design cache storage maybe

[fierce hound]

Anyone got offer from amazon after interviewing this month?

[robust bridge]

man i keep missing apps for good companies

[sly copper]

bruh

I'm not the only waitlister

[fierce hound]

Bruhh your work is waitlisting us ?

[sly copper]

nope, I am one that got waitlisted

[earnest hatch]

Congrats!

[static spindle]

tbh I would just not go for robinhood

but in terms of moving on doesn't sound like you have a lot of choice

[midnight sonnet]

is tiktok done hiring?

[static spindle]

probably not

[midnight sonnet]

now? maybe. b4? no

[wooden shard]

Is Pinterest better than robinhood?

[midnight sonnet]

depends

tbh after a certain bar the tiers don't make much sense no more

[wooden shard]

Where’s that bar

[obsidian sedge]

Arrowstreet Capital

[wooden shard]

Got rejected after hiring manager call

F

[wide socket]

lmao

[vital robin]

Real ones butterfly click

[obsidian sedge]

No job for you then

$144/hour

[haughty ice]

real ones drag click

hop on bedwars

[untold rapids]

if second bloomberg technical interviewer says hr will be reaching out soon during onsite does that mean i passed

[obsidian sedge]

Levels.fyi

[untold rapids]

or does hr reach out to reject

[haughty ice]

is it too late to apply to bloomberg

[hallow scroll]

100 hour 15k sign on but no housing

Yeah I know what you’re saying

Does seem like the top talent would go else where

[half sinew]

anyone have tips if a recruiter hasn't reached out after an interview? i had it on monday, is this still within the normal time range 😦

[sand coral]

Completely normal

[half sinew]

what's the time range usually

[stray frost]

anyone do whatnot final (behavorial) in the past week and a half ish and get a reply?

[haughty ice]

within 2 weeks

[mild aspen]

[novel schooner]

any canadians over here?
ive only found square and paypal currently open for summer 2023
not paypal anymore actually

[hardy patrol]

got to be the most far removed from reality convo ive seen

if hes in the quant qlan then it makes sense

those guys in a different strata

[hallow scroll]

he is

[novel schooner]

fantastic

square is like "oh the OA is just a datapoint" then proceeds to use it as a filtering

[hardy patrol]

whats the status on the zon waitlist krishna

[novel schooner]

also they were known for having non-whiteboard interviews but ig not

the trick is questions 1-2 really fast and skip to 4 then do 3 if u have time
apparnetly

[wide socket]

me too

[hallow scroll]

me

[wide socket]

even tho I didn't get oa yet

[novel schooner]

lets goo jack harlowowow

[hallow scroll]

summer, square has 3 spots for winter

[novel schooner]

bro those massive string processing ones kill me

how tf u know they have 3 spots

[hallow scroll]

idk abt summer

all I know is offseason is ridiculously low

[quaint bolt]

Off-season always only has a super low head count

[hallow scroll]

talked to recruiter and heard it from square interns

but yeah offseaon is always low af

figma hc was like 7

[quaint bolt]

They’re usually exclusively reserved for coop students (or Waterloo kids)

[hardy patrol]

amazon mind flaying thousands of college kids with how unsteady they are rn

watching breakdowns in real time

[hallow scroll]

theyre laying off more

early next year

thankfully none of the orgs mentioned were aws

[hardy patrol]

fax

i got 25/30

[wide socket]

hu

[hardy patrol]

i hope its just a 'datapoint'

[wide socket]

How do uk what score u got

lmao

all i remember is me passing all the test cases

[vagrant rain]

wait did the square have diff assesment for diff postings

I only submitted once but applied to like 3 positions

[celest bane]

anyone doing capital one tip in dallas texas??

looking for a room mate pm me

[hallow scroll]

idk how c1 ghosted me

yeah loll

[celest bane]

i got the internship with 680 codesignal btw

lol

[static spindle]

i applied aug 8th and got waitlist lol

F

i think i applied like aug 20 for zon

unlucky

[tulip aspen]

krishna

we need to fight amazon

ru ready

[sinful locust]

if ur recruiter says "We hope to provide you with a final decision by Monday." is that a good sign

[echo lynx]

Hey folks.

Has anyone here gotten an offer with Snap for summer 2023?

[novel schooner]

Nahh I don't think they get treated that specially

[north portal]

fuck Capital One

shit company

[north portal]

to be fair this entire server is just an echo chamber for 1% aspirers

what were u really expecting

[novel schooner]

so are ppl getting their Amazon internship offers rescinded too

[north portal]

aint no way

[quaint bolt]

depends on the company, for example bloomberg off-season is waterloo-exclusive

[cold path]

@wary whale

[novel schooner]

Ya fug Bloomberg

fr?

that would be comforting given I also have shit internship prospects

I didnt even know I could ask the interviewers how many intern spots are open
Sounds confidential

[static spindle]

why would it be?

why lol

I ask pretty often

[hearty river]

@static spindle u go to Berkeley

?

[static spindle]

no, i am a berkeley hater by proxy since colin davis was

but he's not here anymore 😔

i tell them that its important for me to have a community of interns

so if theres like 3 interns

i probably dont want to work there

[mystic depot]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-gif-25645320

[static spindle]

its okay

ive made peace with berkeley

fuck capital one though

[glass dagger]

has anyone missed an interview before

[mystic depot]

what happened with cap1 i haven't been in this server for a little while

[static spindle]

i have personal beef w them 😤

but their bar was insanely low this year so they got filled up hella quick

[hardy patrol]

top 5

[static spindle]

tbh people with a codesignal of 650 should not be getting jobs that pay $50+ and housing

grade date?

[violet violet]

i doubt it

[static spindle]

t4 means top 4? idk how you can not pass resume screens in that case lmfao

[sterile temple]

Cap 1 is not filled tho right. I have an interview coming up

[static spindle]

theyll go through with whoever is in the pipeline

yes the fuck it does

[polar thunder]

anyone do wayfair final round technical yet? was it similar to first round technical?

[static spindle]

🤷‍♀️ sounds like a you problem. I'm from a lower tier school and I've seen plenty of less skilled people pass resume screens that I didn't

[polar thunder]

im the opposite, i applied way too early and was underprepared for OAs and got fucked

nah thats crazy

[muted summit]

@inner kernel best resources to learn dp?

were u able to just do all those on ur own

or did you read some things or have previous knowledge

mhm sounds good

ive done neetcode but skipped dp

and wanted to learn dp when i had more free time

yeah heard it wasnt worth it

so i didnt learn it

if i learn dp im just doing lru cache for it all tho

neetcode is def good at explaining

oh im talkin about the python decorator

thats crazy tho

u got it twice

whats the python equivalent of linkedhashmap?

no there's a class

but ik you can

or i mean an object or whatever

hashmap that maintains insertion order

no not sorted order

insertion order

no there's one in python for it one sec

its called an

orderedict

ohhh ok

that makes sense now

in the new python it maintains it

ive done all my interviews and stuff in java

but now swapping to python

yea

i realized

it def is

u think so

python def way better LMAOO

[polar thunder]

is mathworks good or smth

see it mentioned a lot here

oo ok

they seem pretty solid to me

gap oa was unnecessarily hard for me

i got asked dp

[devout fractal]

i have done my interviews in straight C :kekw:

[static spindle]

apply to jpmc

[sly copper]

why is gap asking dp

[static spindle]

they just goofy like that

how long since OA?

[sly copper]

iirc microsoft has better benefits/wlb

[static spindle]

1. ddi you do good 2) did you only apply to california locations?

damn

maybe ur recruiter was fired

[hardy patrol]

give it up for day 69

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-mr-krabs-ring-the-bell-ringing-bell-gif-16270849

people been saying the longer it takes the better but 2 months

lmao

[stone yacht]

i have an interview tmrw where one of the questions will be os related. i know nothing of os, what should i learn rn to best my chances of being somewhat able to speak on something?

[fast folio]

last year it took 4 months of ghosting to reject me

who is saying the longer it takes the better lmao

[manic wagon]

Try 5 months with referral

[hardy patrol]

☠️

[devout fractal]

i got msft interview within 2 weeks of applying for one pos and ghosted for 2 months for another, then reject

[hardy patrol]

microsoft has like one senile hr guy hooked up to a dialysis machine responsible for all intern apps

ive heard stories of them taking like literally 4 months to get back to people with phone and thats whats giving me micro-hopium

[hallow scroll]

It took me a month to get an interview last year but this year I got auto rejected

Lol

[earnest hatch]

That's the same region as me , I know who the recruiter is and I've always ended up getting resume rejected after months

The only place I got interview at was when I applied to the Atlanta specific Microsoft app

[hardy patrol]

going to bug them to send me an update with the ticket system

fuck that recruiter for sleepin on me he gonna pay

[earnest hatch]

She*

[novel schooner]

damn how much does C1 pay in Canada
I was a clown to not apply now it's probably too late

For internships

[vagrant rain]

peanuts

[novel schooner]

btw, will more Canadian summer internships open up by Jan?
It's lookin pretty dry rn for Canada

[ivory ocean]

Amazon has a software that tracks bugs called trouble tracker and they use TT as a nickname for it and you said TT

[devout fractal]

what does it say now

hmm interesting

[ebon badge]

yea i got the same msg

[blissful elm]

anyone hear back for etsy?

[scarlet pike]

anyone heard back from square after oa?

[potent imp]

Yea

[sly copper]

Not banking on zon at this point

[violet violet]

what was your waitlist email like?

Was it like this?

yeah the other parts of the email saying stuff about the pause on hiring and that "we are unable to offer you a position" made me think it was a rejection

Thats a good question... Ive been lurking here for the last week and I've only heard people say waitlist

exactly

[sly copper]

11/14

There was an extra part

[foggy ingot]

Do you mind sharing? Curious what the diff is

[loud axle]

tbh I think that the idea amazon is still continuing interviews even at this point is an indication that people will probably get off waitlist

every year theres a waitlist, albeit later in the year, and people get off

[foggy ingot]

Hopium

[sly copper]

[raw birch]

Anyone get akuna capital Oa?

C++ bruh

[autumn maple]

LISTEN YOU PEOPLE,
I know it is hard, to get a job at this moment. The situation is not with us, but trust me you are going to get one within the next 4-5 months for sure. And It is for sure. Now, there are non-fang jobs everywhere. Just stick to one until you find your dream position / company. It is not that hard.
I had my first internship at second year of my undergraduate. 2nd one within a month after completing the first one. And got the high paying remote job in my third year, that is from a Company in Canada and I am FROM FREAKING BANGLADESH!!! Honestly, even in this period, I have received offers from like 2-3 top companies in my country and I am not even completed my Graduate.
Just buckle up, get your shit together and prepare yourself for the next session. Grind, like really hard. Didn't you ever maxed up your level in RPG games, was it for the boss? I don't think so. You maxed up your levels because of your own satisfaction. Be the character in real life for the next upcoming months. Not purposing the faang but your mental satisfaction. Faang will get to you.
Even 2 million more people will not bring downfall in the CS career. The world will continue developing, bringing new ideas than ever before and our skills will be always needed. So, don't you dare to worry about that.
Best of luck for that freaking journey!

[hardy patrol]

reads like a whatsapp message my aunt would send me to cheer up for failing walmart oa

do i really have to sign up for an untapped profile for addepar

[unkempt lance]

Got first 2 right on Snowflake OA and 12/15 for last q, anyone know my odds of moving on?

[muted summit]

somehow applied to amazon mid september and got in

jassy was on my side

[granite fulcrum]

I’ve heard ppl moving on w a score like this so it’s possible

[inland spindle]

Darbaraik

[tawny bobcat]

is this true?

@obsidian sedge

[sinful locust]

Everywhere full

[minor helm]

Just did Amazon interview yesterday for Canada and got hit with the hiring freeze cheez

Any other canadians in the same boat?

[ivory ocean]

YOOOOOO

SHIFT+` MAKES OPENS A FUCKING DISCORD OVERLAY?????????

im gonna abuse the ever living shit out of this system

[static spindle]

should be

[static spindle]

i think its less random

during my internship there were people from Virginia, georgia and florida in texas xd

🤮

dallas

is dallas

yeah I just don't like texas

the internship was great

yes. I think both are justifiable

but i think for jpmc if you do good on the OA and have a not garbage resume you are likely to get final unless your location is super selective like california

they hire a buncha people in Texas, NYC, and Ohio

weird question but are you a URM

probabyl

the recruiters are p close with the applicants

i can maybe connect you with a recruiter that I think focuses on URM

definitely less lmfao

🤷‍♀️ gotta get an internship first

amazon is better than jpmc value wise

[crisp berry]

no

probably airbnb > dropbox > amazon > robinhood

[static spindle]

dropbox >> i think

[sly copper]

Dropbox process is pain

[crisp berry]

airbnb is one of the highest paying tech companies period

for full time

[sly copper]

Airbnb pay op

[quaint bolt]

no way lol

and you def shouldn’t renege amazon for Robinhood lmao

Even if they don’t rescind (highly unlikely) only 1/40 interns got full-time RO from rh last season

[static spindle]

just be good

[crisp berry]

you really think robinhood will rescind intern offers?

i mean they released their apps pretty late

[quaint bolt]

not everyone is like wagon man

[crisp berry]

why would they release it if they were gonna rescind

[static spindle]

[wooden shard]

im pretty sure thats wrong

[static spindle]

[wooden shard]

ive heard at least 5 people get returns

[quaint bolt]

It’s info from past intern lmao

[wooden shard]

talked to past rh interns

same

[crisp berry]

also if it's not your last internship RO doesnt matter as much

amazon/robinhood both good stepping stones

[quaint bolt]

Still riskiest company in that list by far

[wooden shard]

i heard they gave all returns to returning interns, and at least 5 new grad offers

[quaint bolt]

go to amazon, why risk any company that’s smaller in this environment

[crisp berry]

jassy is gonna rescind us 😭

[quaint bolt]

compared to the others???

[wooden shard]

how do u feel about pinterest

[crisp berry]

pinterest >>>>> anything on that list

maybe airbnb > pinterest

[static spindle]

oh wait yall are talking about robinhood lol nvm

[wooden shard]

sheesh

i hope i can get an offer

[quaint bolt]

I think for the most part Amazon’s safe

[wooden shard]

i been waiting for over a week

[quaint bolt]

They’ve slowed down hiring a ton

P sure you weren’t here last year or years before

When people would shit on Amazon offers all the time bc they were so common lol

And now they have a waitlist

[crisp berry]

people do that this year too no

[quaint bolt]

Haven’t seen it nowhere near as much

[crisp berry]

theres the one guy who comments on every /r/csmajors post

"is your "faang" amazon"

[quaint bolt]

anyways just don’t take rh, pinterest prolly safe

amzn prolly safe, Dropbox seems iffy

airbnb idk, they don’t hire from our school anymore

[static spindle]

db doesnt hire much

[quaint bolt]

[static spindle]

i think theyre safe

[wooden shard]

what if alreadyh have amazon on resume

[crisp berry]

i just think airbnb full time comp is sexy

[quaint bolt]

My friend works at Pinterest and I haven’t heard anything about layoffs etc from him so pin most likely safe

[quaint bolt]

Guess it’s time to return

[wooden shard]

u know anything about aws wwco?

[quaint bolt]

wtf is wwco

[hallow scroll]

This the team I’m on for summer lol

[wooden shard]

wait

me too

wtf

[hallow scroll]

Sales stuffs I think

[wooden shard]

ye'

[wooden shard]

nyc

[hallow scroll]

👀👀

Same

[wooden shard]

sorry might get pinterest

😦

[crisp berry]

i wish pinterest would open toronto apps

[sinful locust]

def

[torn gull]

betrayal

[sinful locust]

name brand helps

[crisp berry]

pinterest seems like fun company
