2023_summer

[coarse marten]

Did you renege ac?

I got lost in all offers u got

[sinful locust]

my msft summer app has been in Review since like November, is that a rejection?

[quaint bolt]

it was open for 2022 ng but then they closed

saying too many people accepted RO

[sinful locust]

Does MSFT usually update u if u get rejected

[quaint bolt]

no

[hallow scroll]

rip

[quaint bolt]

a while ago

[coarse marten]

@quaint bolt

[sinful locust]

When'd you apply btw

[safe minnow]

That’s an interesting desc you got there

[soft basin]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/887916826556776501/894088728467877888/Mosca_2.0-1.gif

[quaint bolt]

the day apps came out

[hallow scroll]

thanks

[sinful locust]

I started applying to companies in Nov 11th, probably the biggest L of the season doing that

[coarse marten]

For?

[soft basin]

💀

jesus

some of us started mid june

[quaint bolt]

akuna doesn't pay enough for me to go there over goog and i'd rather be in canada for ft so no point in going there

[sinful locust]

guess im fucked for summer 2023 then, its my first semester as CS, haven't even taken DSA

[quaint bolt]

keep applying, first-year is always rough and this year is esp bad

[proud crag]

why does anyone work for akuna

[soft basin]

remember back in the days when we had annoying goku

[quaint bolt]

apply to sophomore programs next year

[proud crag]

it seems like the wlb and pay are too low to warrant ever going there

[quaint bolt]

and if you can't get a swe internship for s23 there's always research

[sinful locust]

I'm a CS masters student from a different career, so things are weird for me

[soft basin]

get grinding 😈

[quaint bolt]

p high for internship, my offer was around the 80s just not high enough to take it over goog considering id rather be at goog ft

[proud crag]

how does physics research that involved applied ml stack up for that? since its applied would it be treated poorly

[soft basin]

can u not do akuna off szn?

[quaint bolt]

also basically guarantees interviews at every other firm so if you wanna do quant akuna's great

[proud crag]

i meant full time but ye for intern thats great opportunity

[quaint bolt]

any kind of research I think is valued

meta's vr labs or oculus poached my friend's uncle who had chem phd

as long as the research is stem

[sinful locust]

hmm i did research in chem lol, not computational though

[proud crag]

thats a phd tho

[sinful locust]

Could be he did computational chem?

[proud crag]

i mean undergrad research

phd means ur cracked so ofc that helps

[quaint bolt]

still helps imo

obv directly cs-related research would be ideal, but computational bio/physics/chem should be considered about the same too and then other kinds of research

[coarse marten]

Did you bag sh offer there?

Exp > no exp

[rapid swan]

quant exp -> better quants later

[proud crag]

dear god i wish

i have bagged notbing

i had internship last year so still grateful

long term

i just want money short term

sup

[uneven sand]

akuna internships are very good

they feed top quant

[proud crag]

i mean full time

[earnest hatch]

Only half as good as Yahkunazon internships

[coarse marten]

@sinful locust

[gloomy plover]

Got the tech intern program offer at nyl insurance!

[simple garden]

mr aight unbanned?

[earnest hatch]

I didn't even know he was banned

[coarse marten]

My fellow mf

[sinful locust]

do yall think ml engineers get paid more than swe's

i hear competing info all the time about this

[safe minnow]

As a general trend yes

But this means very little

[bleak storm]

bruhh

salesforce

[safe minnow]

💀

[wary whale]

data science is 🤢

????

actually?

[proud crag]

why does salesforce need ethical AI

[near swallow]

To stop palantir interns

[proud crag]

their customers would be the ones being unethical

[near swallow]

Palantir is the fire nation of tech

Salesforce is air nation

[proud crag]

that is not a godo matchup

whos water nation, google

?

[near swallow]

Water nation is probably msft

Very chill

Nobody minds them

[proud crag]

earth nation is all of the startups combined

[near swallow]

Earth nation has to be a very powerful one that does nothing to stop fire nation

[wary whale]

I'd join the fire nation

they had no repercussions for attacking the world 😭

wrong word

[near swallow]

[wary whale]

we don't see them punished for conquering the other 3 nations

[near swallow]

L take + no wonder ur a cs major and not polisci major + punitive diplomacy is wack

[wary whale]

what detriments are there to joining the fire nation as a non bender?

[rapid swan]

literally yeah

just bc I got a waterbottle and tshirt

like

[wary whale]

wtf what were they studying

[rapid swan]

bio and civ eng

[wary whale]

I think it's because they knew what the implications were

in terms of salary and future prospects

not the swag itself

or maybe it was the swag itself 💀

[rapid swan]

true..

but still

[rapid swan]

I think it was the swag

jealous smh

[wary whale]

😭

[soft basin]

flex offender for too much swag

[safe minnow]

Bro 💀

[uneven sand]

non-cs majors when they get divorced after 20 years over being jealous of a google waterbottle

[wary whale]

not even that, the google propeller cap

[rapid swan]

https://tenor.com/view/jealousy-gif-9714183

shouldve showed them this

[wide socket]

wait

what was walmart intern offer this year?

[wary whale]

I spent my morning writing up a script that will allow me to DM every single one of my classmates excluding the TAs and instructors so I can invite them to a discord server : )

[safe minnow]

Which one

[wary whale]

every single one until I'm done with school

[safe minnow]

No like which server

[wary whale]

next semester I'm taking operating systems, algorithms, and software development

[safe minnow]

Personal?

Oh

[wary whale]

one per class

[safe minnow]

That’s smart

[wary whale]

it is

better than a big one that has all the classes that no one checks

[safe minnow]

Yeah fs

[hardy patrol]

hate when people push me to join a whatsapp or wechat group for classes

just stick to discord

[soft basin]

at least it’s not groupme

groupme is the worst

[wary whale]

it was a PITA and a half though because I tried it a few months ago unsuccessfully because I had no idea what I was going and refused to read the canvas docs because I relied too much on the python wrapper 💀

you could totally be a menace on canvas though

[hardy patrol]

i meant groupme i get it confused with the asian equal to whatsapp

[wary whale]

just spamming the ever living daylights out of other users and nothing will happen to you

[soft basin]

the chinese whatsapp is wechat

whatsapp is just used by most ethnic ppl

[hardy patrol]

didnt recognize you at first

its usually whatsapp for indians telegram for iranians wechat/kaokaotalk for chinese/koreans

little bit of cross contamination across all 3

[white urchin]

is amazon hiring off wailist

[wary whale]

no

[white urchin]

people are posting about offers for swe intern on linkedin

[wary whale]

Amazon full and beyond full

[soft basin]

fuck no

[soft basin]

some ppl wait to post their offers

[safe minnow]

Yep

A lot of ppl wait

[soft basin]

cuz they might have to consider between a few offers

[soft basin]

new pfp 😈

[hardy patrol]

new year new pfp

[soft basin]

quaxly supremacy

[gloomy plover]

guys how is $30 USD/hr and 2k housing stipend (new jersey) , should i negotiate for higher pay or ask them if it could be fully remote?

[hardy patrol]

where in nj

[hallow scroll]

they give u housing, thats good

[hardy patrol]

negotiating pay as an intern lmao

[gloomy plover]

ik that's pretty inconsiderate but just wondering

[gloomy plover]

$2,000 housing stipend to assist with any temporary housing costs, contingent upon an in-person internship.

[hallow scroll]

yeah i think thats p good

should be fine, especially if you can get a roommate

[gloomy plover]

oh yeah i didn't think about that

my mom deducted all the expenses and said the payout doesn't justify the costs

especially i'm living alone in another city

[hardy patrol]

is this your first internship

[gloomy plover]

yes

[hallow scroll]

i feel like its an investment for yourself

[gloomy plover]

corporate wise

definitely

[stable badger]

Where in NJ

[hallow scroll]

even if youre living on a tight budget it'll pay off in the future

[hardy patrol]

fuck it bruh the payout is good enough you'll be set for next year

[gloomy plover]

clinton new jersey

[gloomy plover]

ngl the white collar recssion just sounds like an excuse to my mom

[stable badger]

Yeah thats kinda middle of nowhere

[gloomy plover]

ti's really that insnae to get something

[hardy patrol]

true

[stable badger]

You can get a pretty good housing in Clinton with $2000

[hardy patrol]

nj blows but youre in good shape in the long run

[gloomy plover]

yea i'm pretty set but probablyw ill reenge for something more sutiable

and closer to home

[stable badger]

I from NJ

[hardy patrol]

jersey city being the only exception since its like 10m away from manhattan

and maybe newark cause of the sopranos

[stable badger]

Dont talk shit about my home state

[gloomy plover]

nyl insurance is a fortune 100

that's just it i probably wouldn't need anything else for new grad at this point

[hardy patrol]

ive never heard of this before you're like the needle in the haystack

bro got one and he's done that's commendable

[soft basin]

the only good thing abt nj is that it’s next to nyc

[gloomy plover]

idk but just guessing

[hardy patrol]

no hedonistic treadmill

[gloomy plover]

i'm not settling down just yet

just being grateful for my options atm and quietly celebrating

[soft basin]

ong

[hardy patrol]

amen

[gloomy plover]

sorry if i come off as funny or conceited

took me 5 months

i wasn't picky with my software apps and i interviewed honestly

[soft basin]

i wasn’t picky either

but my process started mid june

[safe minnow]

Nah you should be proud

[gloomy plover]

damn mood

[gloomy plover]

thanks! total draw of the cards

[soft basin]

the new grad market is gonna be a pain

for 2024

it could get worse

[gloomy plover]

honestly i didn't even have a say lol

just two choices between clinton and nyc

[soft basin]

house in nj and commute to nyc

[gloomy plover]

probably transit then?

[soft basin]

ye

[gloomy plover]

don't have a car there

i'm from california

[soft basin]

i’m a little biased towards new york

u don’t need a car in nyc

[gloomy plover]

same as for most of europe and australia lol

[soft basin]

damn i wish i could live without a car

[gloomy plover]

"lives in the car"

[soft basin]

america is behind the rest of the world with public transportation

[gloomy plover]

i don't think that's our thing lol

just cars

[soft basin]

it’s not a good thing being too car dependent

[gloomy plover]

then again not just me

it's an american thing

[soft basin]

forcing a lot of the population to drive

[stable badger]

It’s pain in the ass to carry a car in NYC

Parking fee is ridonculous

[soft basin]

naw it’s lobbying to blame

[quaint bolt]

Just buy the street

[gloomy plover]

honestly lol

whatever works best for you idm

[stable badger]

Imagine paying $500/month for a public parking

[soft basin]

fuck ford

[gloomy plover]

as long as i can make a positive contribution to this world

[stable badger]

NYC > Clinton btw

You’ll have nothing to do in Clinton

[gloomy plover]

i'll just binge anime

my slice of life nonsense

[soft basin]

just do nj commute to nyc

[gloomy plover]

keke

[soft basin]

shouldn’t take too long with public transportation

[gloomy plover]

that is not a bad idea

it's just housing costs

[soft basin]

nj is cheaper than nyc

[gloomy plover]

fr

[soft basin]

my ng goal is either nyc or seattle

and maybe to retire in europe

[wary whale]

I feel so empowered being able to go where I want with a car though

just suburb tings

[stable badger]

Get a room in Jersey City

Should be $1500/month

[wide socket]

Anyone familiar with

Lazard

[gloomy plover]

that's the spirit

[stable badger]

Tier 2 IB

[wide socket]

Wym tier 2

Lol

[stable badger]

GS, MS, JPM tier 1

Its below them

[wide socket]

I see

[stable badger]

Still a very good firm

[wide socket]

Really

Hows the pay for

[stable badger]

Doodoo in swe but top firm in IB

[wide socket]

Lazard?

Like software engineer

Not intern

I got the offer for intern

Its pretty sweet but

Wondering if I go for return offer

41 per hour

[stable badger]

SWEs are second class citizens in IBs anyways

Dont stay long

41 is solid thi

[wide socket]

Really

[stable badger]

Tho

[wide socket]

Ya I was wondering

For full time

Uk

Im also local so I can take the train and its also hybrid

[sinful locust]

wtf

[gentle latch]

Interesting

[stable badger]

Ass kinda mid

[sinful locust]

thats not an ass 💀

[soft basin]

[sinful locust]

[stable badger]

Join the server and see

[wide socket]

Um

I been messagin

[proud crag]

hold on i have an idea

[wide socket]

The wrong recruiter

[soft basin]

personality >>>>

[wide socket]

Apparently lmao

[proud crag]

phishing scam but im very up front about the scam and they get nudes in return for giving up their password

[echo lynx]

Hey folks

Do you guys know when Meta is coming out?

[soft basin]

never

[echo lynx]

I thought it was to come out this Jan

[honest aspen]

Meta recruiting is a mess

[wary whale]

what server?

[gentle latch]

Meta being sus tbh
They rejected their last year interns for return 2023 internships

[echo lynx]

Oh wow

[gentle latch]

They might not actually be opening tbh

[echo lynx]

Okay, sounds good, thanks.

[gentle latch]

Sure

[stable badger]

It was a nsfw server. Got deleted

[wary whale]

😭

[gentle latch]

Right here

[wary whale]

hehe at my previous internship it was 40 minutes each way

because of traffic

[soft basin]

public transportation is key

[wary whale]

so tired every day because I'd lose an hour and half just driving

[gentle latch]

My office was a 10 min walk away fron my hotel

[soft basin]

helps reduce traffic

[wary whale]

actually?

this is a tesla thing right

oh lmao

my mind goes on auto piilot when I drive lol

[gentle latch]

@proud crag does lc problems in their head when they drive

[wary whale]

I remember almost falling asleep behind the wheel but I just barely stay alive because all I'm focusing on is the road line on the left hand side

[gentle latch]

Playstation is separate from sony?

[wary whale]

wait you're actually doing ML on driving data?

??????

wait how do you turn the wheel automatically

I kind of want to see what that looks like

in action

😭

you got me

[gentle latch]

Playstation has some good ass games

😼

Yeesir

!process google offer

Is this nickname cringe?

[static spindle]

Manifest it king, or queen

[gentle latch]

Lol

[gentle latch]

Queen

[hallow scroll]

Should I follow up with google? I got rejected 6 months ago… expecting the worst…

Cheers,

[coarse marten]

Probably in 6m

[gentle latch]

Yes baby

[coarse marten]

Rn, it's quite pointless I believe

[hallow scroll]

Dw is joke I’d rather risk getting ghosted then talk to my recruiter again

[rapid swan]

wait ur still applying?

wot happened to nflix

wtf

scary

good luck

end of the world

[proud crag]

this is old news

have you not talked to insiders befroe

amazon 2023 was gona b bad

[astral dew]

considering a bunch of articles just came out ima ssuming its fresh

[sinful locust]

just visited Netflix campus to pray for offer

[proud crag]

no but i woulnt bet either way

my mafic 8 ball says they wont rescind though

[wary whale]

https://tenor.com/view/praying-lets-pray-dear-god-please-god-talia-jackson-gif-14487028

[ivory ocean]

This why I ran from Amazon I was scared there’d be no returns cuz of the layoffs

[rapid swan]

FR

[wary whale]

I should have not declined att

[safe minnow]

Prob to accept multiple offers

In this economy

Ngl I should have done the same

Fuck

[north trout]

plz give 1 (one) interview

[wary whale]

AT&T return offer way more likely than Amazon

😭

mistakes were made

[lavish portal]

Anyone here done system development engineer internship with AWS?

^ have my final round coming up

[wooden shard]

i was refused fall

[wide socket]

Wait

I might look for fall internships

[hardy patrol]

holy shit how long until cisco oa

theyre going to msft me

[wide socket]

is cisco still recruitin

[short nest]

i think meraki isnt automatic, but regular cisco is

[sinful locust]

its auto isnt it

[earnest hatch]

I don't believe in striking the crowd, it's barbaric

[static spindle]

None of the Cisco OAs are auto

[hallow scroll]

They are tho

[hardy patrol]

i mean i havent gotten one yet so

do you have prior exp

[stable badger]

already did

it was easy + a little bit of math

[hardy patrol]

i did meraki isnt that the same as this

[static spindle]

I haven’t gotten OA for either

[hardy patrol]

word ill apply there too since id rather diversify my resume

instead of returning to the same company

[hallow scroll]

have you done one within the last few months

it normally gets sent within an hour, but if you did one for a previous season like summer/fall/winter they reuse a previous OA

[hardy patrol]

nah not at all

[static spindle]

Oh, I did an OA in April of 2022

[hardy patrol]

never done a cisco oa before

[static spindle]

Maybe that’s why they never sent it again :/

[hallow scroll]

check spam may b

or idk maybe system just gapped you for no reason

[hardy patrol]

should i make a new acc and reapply lmfao

[delicate pumice]

I applied, got an OA, then was told they were full lmao

[sinful locust]

never used that syntax

to me that looks like a tuple where l someone forgot the parenthesis lol

[safe minnow]

Doesn't look like it

I tested it and it auto casted it to a tuple

res takes on the value of 1, curEnd takes on points[0][1]

Isn't it that?

[sinful locust]

it is

when u have two values like that

[safe minnow]

Yeah it's a neat lil python feature

You can define multiple vars on a line like that

[sinful locust]

it’s actuslly useful when u wanna exchange values

without setting a tmp variable

yeah basicslly

it’s neat

actuslly useful in some lc

[safe minnow]

Also when you take values from a function that returns multiple things

That's the primary use I see a lot of the time

I don't think it has a particular name

Yeah python is cool

[fluid escarp]

do you guys think using rust is a disadvantage in coding interviews

[safe minnow]

At a fundamental level your interviewer might not know rust

[fluid escarp]

I kinda exclusively use it and I feel I am good at it, but I feel like they'd look at me like im a weirdo for using it in coidng problems

[safe minnow]

Which is a disadvantage imo

[fluid escarp]

I use other languages a lot, I just like rust for programming problems

[safe minnow]

Also how is the rust job market looking

[fluid escarp]

I suppose ill try and pick up python for it

[coarse crane]

https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/company-news/update-from-ceo-andy-jassy-on-role-eliminations bro im not getting my RO

👹

[fluid escarp]

rust makes me feel like I have more granular control over aspects of the problem

[sinful locust]

yet they still hired new people

make it make sense

[sand coral]

What language were you using prior?

[near swallow]

@proud crag armada might be at g9 to commentate

this is huge, i've seen him before too lol years ago at another tourney

[proud crag]

why

only huge if he enters doubles

[near swallow]

lol the classic swedish brothers

[proud whale]

outta curiosity how many people here have been coding since before University

jeez man

would you say u were comfortable coding starting off in Uni tho?

it's interesting to see what the 'market' so to speak is like of students

i see

as someone who wrote my first hello world in freshman year i wonder where most are at

same

[wary whale]

our time to be gg'd is next fall when Amazon no returns anybody

no jobs for no one

[stable spire]

@bleak storm copied ur name

[bleak storm]

lmao ur be fine

if I haven’t signed dbx I would join you right away

but I’m afraid of reneging in this market lmao

i’m a uniswap simp

Cool emoji🦄

[stable spire]

not sure but im assuming its a T1 startup offer

[bleak storm]

Yeah I have no idea too

[stable spire]

so like 140-150 base, 0-20 signing, and then paper equity to make TC low/mid 200's?

[bleak storm]

Maybe

I’m hoping on a call to decline tmr

I’ll ask for you :))))

[stable spire]

other alternatives wont be good on my resume aside from bubble.io but its remote

[stable spire]

wait yea please do before u reject it on call

[warped nest]

Does anyone know what type of tree this is ? Excluding the blue squared nodes

[stable spire]

u got nothing to lose if ur declining

[bleak storm]

Yeah

I’ll lyk

[stable spire]

im boutta renege 3x in a few months

6 total career reneges

[craggy elk]

have they sent any updates to you? I keep on gettting emails saying "please fill this out to let us know your still interested". In general, anybody get anything from Cisco? Positions still are open according to website

[hardy patrol]

gotdam

november

[craggy elk]

yep

[stable spire]

my dad referred me for summer 2022 and i have yet to hear back a response

[warped nest]

LMFAOAOOAOOAOOOO

[random tide]

yeah I applied like a week ago and got OA so its still ongoing

[craggy elk]

Interesting, i didn't get anything, should I assume that its a rejection?

[bleak storm]

They keep pressing me lmaoo

[stable spire]

yea it would be interesting to hear expected TC since i have ziprecruiter to compare it too also

[sinful locust]

Was dbx process hard?

[warped nest]

check dms

[random tide]

not sure tbh, but I think cisco is auto-OA?

[wise quail]

Did anyone do c3 ai system design interview for internship?

[bleak storm]

not hard but unconventional:-?

[random tide]

at least it seems to have been every year i've done it

[stable spire]

did u cold email JH or did u apply into oa?

i emailed her 4x and im so sure she pity gave me the OA

[sinful locust]

So no LC?

[craggy elk]

Could be, tbh could have missed something, because I submitted an application to a position in London, and it was an auto-reject lol, they responded within the week I believe

[sinful locust]

Working for Dropbox would be sick

[bleak storm]

so I got rejected 4x times in the past from (launch + swe) in soph and freshman year

then this year JH reach out

really surprised

from no where and I finished the process in 1.5 weeks lmao

[stable spire]

i passed oa into recruiter call into rejection due to HC since she gave me it so late

unlucky tyimingh

[bleak storm]

hmm ur know what

[sinful locust]

Who tf is JH?

[bleak storm]

from what i know someone is going to renege dbx soon

[stable spire]

idt it matters now since they can afford like 1-2 reneges

[bleak storm]

so maybe you should chat with them if ur want @stable spire though

[sinful locust]

Who’s jh whys jh where’s jh

[stable spire]

recruiter initials

[bleak storm]

one lc for technical

[sinful locust]

Oh ok

[bleak storm]

the rest just behavioral + review code round which is kinda fun

[stable spire]

naw im fine ; it would be weird emailing JH saying i know this guy is reneging can i take his spot

[sinful locust]

Damn that’s so nice

[bleak storm]

let’s swap referral next year 🤡 i want to be inside 👌 a unicorn 🦄

[stable spire]

this assumes uniswap even exists this summer 🤡

[bleak storm]

bro ur be fine

in person nyc is poggggg

also ur got to work on open source stuffs so that’s cool

[stable spire]

need to find housing near SOHO which i hope wont be bad

[bleak storm]

sharing room with js intern 🤡

lol

[stable spire]

ive started prepping for new grad knowing the hellhole that will happen in 6 months

[bleak storm]

same

all the companies I’m simping for layoffs lmao

nuro plaid stripe

[white urchin]

lol

market won't recover that fast i think

[stable spire]

all im hoping for is for Asana to layoff even more

[bleak storm]

whyyyy

asana is cool

my friend is there

she loved it

[stable spire]

its so surprsing that Nuro would interview any dog with FAANG+ last year now theyre so selective

[bleak storm]

they have like free chef and boogie shit

[bleak storm]

my friend’s mentor got layoffs lmao at nuro

bro that’s kinda fucked

[stable spire]

every single round went fine aside from the one where a CF Master ICPC Bronze Medalist interviewed me and I knew chances were gone midway through interview

im p sure i used java

[bleak storm]

same when i interviewed w quora

[stable spire]

ok but Quora is known for sweats

[bleak storm]

when i said i quitted cp bc it seems like cs is so much more than cp

[stable spire]

Asana is deadass live laugh love company

[bleak storm]

he just stood there judging me

[bleak storm]

my mentor at snap was as asana pre ipo

when he got layoffs at snap

he just didn’t give a f

he is rich from asana

[stable spire]

did he leave asana when the stock crashed?

[bleak storm]

he left at ath

literally sold all

he was at quip then Salesforce acquired then asana

lucky guy

Unfortunately no

[fervent cliff]

c++ or python for interview questions

[wary whale]

do cpp @fervent cliff

it's what competitive programmers use

[fervent cliff]

why?

[wary whale]

because you have more control and you can show what you know

[fervent cliff]

yeah ive been using cpp for leetcode practice i was going to switch to python

siince ik some python too

Hey everyone!

I got the following email from google.

Hi Ali,

A Googler recently invited you to apply for the Software Engineering Intern, Summer 2023 - Taipei or New Taipei City role. We carefully reviewed your background and experience, and decided not to proceed with your application at this time.

Although this role didn't work out, we may contact you if we come across another opening that we think could interest you and that matches your skills and experience.

Also, if you applied for any other roles with us recently, look for an update on them soon.

I have submitted 3 applications to different locations. Does this mean all my applications are rejected now?

[wary whale]

I think you still got a shot

just make sure you send them a follow-up asking for an OA to take a shot

[safe minnow]

Those “paying to go to work posts” are just depressing

Mfs buy apple stock at employee discount and then legit come out the year with net negative

[fleet brook]

they were all software engineering intern. So, i think they are the same roles

[safe minnow]

4 💀

Oh

how many interns do they hire anyways

How many do you reckon use discord

Actually the better question is how many can you find on discord

🤔if you get 10 people for the fall count me impressed

Oh that makes sense

Are you take the sem off?

[safe minnow]

Meeting irl be like 😳

Come to think of it most of this server ends up being in SF/NYC/Seattle

So meetups seem hella viable

[wary whale]

😳

[wary whale]

did you not just doxx yourself 😭 @sleek pike

[hallow scroll]

They don’t lol

Maybe for your first internship when you have no experience and nothing else to talk about

I’ve never talked about a project in an interview before

[crisp berry]

spotify didnt open internships right?

[hallow scroll]

No

[ivory ocean]

FIGMA IS DOWN RED ALERT

[bleak storm]

confirmed. so 140k base, some signing bonus 10-20, equity + token allocation, 1 year cliff, 25% qualified after first year

tbh for a unicorn it's good?, considering they only raised series B so far

why do I feel like this is my chance to got rich lmao

FOMO so bad

[proud crag]

it is a chance

but its a smallish chance

high EV low chance of profit

[wide socket]

my resume gets rejected by unicorns, how do I not ;p

[somber solstice]

go to mit

[hallow scroll]

unicorns are hard dw

[wide socket]

yea

[hallow scroll]

you dont need a good school for them but for most, and especially for top unicorns you gotta have prior big n experience

[wide socket]

I wanted to get a opportunity at Rivian

but didn't get interview

[hallow scroll]

rip

[wide socket]

I see

so I gotta jump faang to unicorn

[hallow scroll]

it gets easier the more experience you get, first recruiting year I didnt hear back from unicorns but this year I heard back from a lot

[hallow scroll]

doesn't have to be faang, if its well known big name you have a good shot

[wide socket]

I see

im junior tho I guess I gotta go for new grad unicorn

lmao

Last year I did a local internship

this year Im interning with Lazard

[safe minnow]

Just curious, what makes you want to join a unicorn?

[ivory ocean]

He’s horny

Badum tssss

Cuz unicorns have horns

[wide socket]

$$$

opportunities

[earnest hatch]

@honest spire With 18K more Amazon layoffs incoming, they're making room for moving interns off the waitlist

[wide socket]

ya

surely I get a oa now

[kind lagoon]

we stay waiting

[stable spire]

dyk how much was equity

[earnest hatch]

Crypto in a nutshell, the FOMO is what fucks you over

[dull thunder]

bru why cant amazon just like

take us all off the waitlist

[bleak storm]

They said it would depend but in range of 20k-30k. Then the token

[real sedge]

Wat company?

[bleak storm]

For uniswap

[real sedge]

Have FAANG+ or go to top school

[real sedge]

U went dbx?

Congrats 👏

[bleak storm]

yessir

unless i got netflix

but idt it’s possible lmao

[sinful locust]

i dont believe in uniswaps future

[bleak storm]

30 mins with hm

[sinful locust]

blockchain has so many minimal true use cases

lmfao

[bleak storm]

i probably screwed up

[real sedge]

Jus wonderin y u took dbx?

[real sedge]

Me neither

[bleak storm]

uniswap is tied with the success of crypto

and it seems to me

as long as there is demand, they will survive

[sinful locust]

they wont

crypto is a sham

i doubt itll survive long term

[bleak storm]

you don't have to hold crypto too, you can trade and make money, and gtfo

[sinful locust]

its failed to show valid use cases imo

robinhood > uniswap

[real sedge]

Tbh i still haven't seen one solid usecase

[sinful locust]

there are some

very very few

and theyre super niche

[real sedge]

Like what?

[bleak storm]

i mean it depends, like sending money internationally and have to deal with different exchange rate

[real sedge]

I guess sending money overseas

[earnest hatch]

Good choice, I already don't trust crypto but I also don't trust any company that has their own token

[sinful locust]

yeah

that is one

smart contracts are useful sometimes as a concept

but tahts blockchain

not crypto based purely

the blockchain has been used for a while,

[bleak storm]

decentralized exchange

https://research.contrary.com/reports/uniswap-labs

[earnest hatch]

Allow people to unbank themselves

[bleak storm]

nah

[real sedge]

But decentralized

[bleak storm]

ftx is centralized exchange

uniswap ur directly swapping token with someone else

so uniswap does not hold any of your money, while ftx u deposited in etc

[earnest hatch]

D e c e n t r a l i z e d

[bleak storm]

fee

in order to make swapping easy they have to have enough liquidity

so fee from transaction, split with the one who deposit their own liquidity

[bleak storm]

https://twitter.com/gakonst/status/1604475119954436099?s=20&t=-tloYUdVgyQu1r3ton7SNg, a tweet from founder of Paradigm

Georgios Konstantopoulos (@gakonst)

this is a great post end to end, but this specific section just hits the nail on the head - it's hard for the western world sometimes to appreciate that crypto is the technology for freedom first and everything else second

[safe minnow]

Do you feel like this is a choice you could possibly regret or do you feel confident in your decision

[real sedge]

[stable spire]

[quaint bolt]

Esp with the OpenAI acquisition that’s eminent

[stable spire]

product is good, work and culture is shit

[quaint bolt]

[earnest hatch]

[fluid mantle]

hi, everyone! I just interviewed with Google yesterday, for SDE summer Intern. Just now, my recruiter sent me an email to schedule a tommorw phone call to give me a update. Is this too quick to get a result?🥹

[soft basin]

even if u did get offer good luck with team matching

[fluid mantle]

G interview process sucks. The time span is very long, up to half a year 🥵

[devout jewel]

Did u solve both q

If so, it’s prob dub

Usually if the feedback is good, they expedite it to hiring committee

[dense nimbus]

have any Fall 2023 internships opened up?

[fluid mantle]

it is a third interview (additional). I solve both q in 30 min , but not in optimal ways. After coding, I just gossip with my interviewer about his work for nearly 20 minutes. I don't know if it is a good sign.

[devout jewel]

hmm prob L
