i got my offer in august lol
the anxiety has been goin up from the recent layoffs tho

I know there a few recruiters for knight hacks and iirc there is a big local job fair in spring

Is PayPal done hiring interns?
scenic sluice
do you ever feel bad for renegine
also why is everyone freaking out about big tech / MANGA layoffs, there are still a million jobs in small to midsize companies that pay just as well. obv doesn't have the "prestige" as MANGA but alot of MANGA has been on the decline anyways
vagrant rain
MANGA does tend to pay more, plus there is stuff like prestige(resume boost), benefits and job security

yeah but it's not the end of the world if u make 100k TC instead of 150k TC as a 20 year old either way

if you worked at MANGA already i feel like you can work just about anywhere tbh
Right… but back to my point of what about the other engineers? Way harder for them now
scenic sluice
i just think MANGA is over rated and people need to realize that there are non MANGA companies that are arguably better
there is more to life than ego / clout
this is what i'm referring to as well

why are you saying the best jobs in terms of pay and cushiness are overrated? i think theyre weighted as sky high as they should br

i relate to that, those day in the life vids motivated me

and most big tech companies are over-staffed with people just like this

Yep. Google sadly 
It’s so weird tho how like Microsoft pay low even tho it’s like a trillion $ company
scenic sluice
how is it not a lottery
luck is like most of the hiring process, leetcode, good resume, etc just minimizes the amount of luck that you need
grand dagger
how is it not a lottery

scenic sluice
how so
how is this not a unicorn event, if you have multiple top internships you're within the top 10% of all software undergrads

not really, it requires a high amount of luck to get to the top 10% of anything (software or otherwise), you have to have the available resources to get to that point, most people don't have that

u r freshman right
i think freshman yr was super tough, and on top of that theres recession
i think any internship freshman year is rlly good
like even if its local
oh damn u applying as junior?
or soph
every school other than top 4 suck
i go to purdue, ours wasnt that good tbh
yeah thats a rlly good backup
also local internships tend to have more project based interviews
rather than lc

yeah goldman and jpmc were our best

i mean even the work at bb is more relevant to hft than most other companies
my friend said its mostly cpp stuff
though he did kubernetes and is now going to js lmao
so not cpp
near swallow
Bb doing interesting stuff for sure
quaint bolt
Esp bc some people in my cohort have very comparable profiles
near swallow
They render da terminal at 144hz that is very high performance
It’s probably a legit pipeline tho i can see it. Best path in terms of effort to reward ratio to get u from college -> hft
Could be BB
Cuz BB is a magnitude more attainable + cpp lords
quaint bolt
Friends who interned at BB heard back from every quant they applied to including JS
Other similar profiles except they weren’t at BB didn’t hear back from nearly as many
Not a significant sample size but again everything else is same: school, number of internships etc
near swallow
But it’s got a high bar, so u make it there for a while and u ready for next level
Aim higher brother, do 2 sig -> c3 ai -> 5 rings
