#

a recruiter from affirm said my resumes pog

hot venture
cyan garnet
#

does affirm take hsers?

tawdry frigate
#

no big tech company takes high schoolers 😭😭

cyan garnet
#

i got a response from a recruiter and she said to email her late aug early sept

tawdry frigate
slow quarry
#

but theres no set program

cyan garnet
#

so i am assuming they do because she told me to contact her then

#

yes

#

i stated clearly in email i am in hs

#

My name is HEHEHEHAW and I'm expected to graduate high school in 2023. I am looking for Software Engineering internship positions for Summer 2023. I am really interested in working for Affirm and was wondering if you have any openings available? I am willing to relocate.

Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you! I've attached my resume to this email, in case you would like to see it.

#

i sent this to her and got a response

#

Thanks for reaching out! I really appreciate your interest in Affirm. Unfortunately, we are not looking for interns at this time. Our hiring season starts around late August/early September. :) We can definitely keep in touch until then!

#

Any HS emailing recruiters is prolly so sweaty they're cracked

hot venture
cyan garnet

dang

pretty high

brisk halo

i was in the 30% LOL

cyan garnet

man if i get high gpa i will basically get any school

imo once u T20 doesn't even matter

ig maybe it makes it even easier but meh

sports non profit etc

brisk halo
proud whale

school I go to isn't a top target CS school that people talk ab but it's still T20 and more than enough to hear back from places

#

u don't hear it treated that way within CS

cyan garnet
devout fractal
#

bet homie goes to duke or sth

proud whale
#

it's def berk+ as the "top CS"

cyan garnet
#

for me i just want uc

brisk halo
#

my friend chose ox over cal 🥲

proud whale
#

yeah getting all UC isn't too tough

#

i got all UC

#

well it is tough

devout fractal
#

lmao my friend chose uchicago over ox lol

proud whale
#

but yeah

cyan garnet
white rampart
devout fractal
#

it's cuz everyone applying has 3.85+ gpa

white rampart
#

at least the top ones

white rampart
devout fractal
#

need sth else to differentiate

#

depends on the school: publics/waterloo etc care a lot abt gpa

#

privates not as much

mild compass
#

canadian unis just care abt gpa

proud whale
#

imo uni acceptance @ uc level def takes GPA into account

#

GPA is a huge factor for UCs

#

UCLA middle 50% of freshman admits GPA range 4.18-4.32

#

UC Berkeley middle 50% 4.15-4.30

brisk halo
#

yeah gpa feels especially important for ucs

proud whale
#

i think i had a 4.3X

white rampart
#

i feel like gpa from US doesnt really matter cuz HS had inflated as hell gpas lmfao

proud whale
#

yeah but this doesn't tell me shit bc 4.9 was impossible from my school

#

even if i took every AP and got an A in every single class

#

some schools just inflate hella

cyan garnet
#

why did i have to go to a school with all the overachievers

#

dont unis pick certain number of students from hs only

#

like they have a limit

#

this isnt the 1990s

#

when did u apply for uni

#

just curious

devout fractal
#

naw she's a US citizen, got that fat fin aid

oak kite
#

not true

#

i got into T10 with 3.67 gpa

devout fractal
#

oof

oak kite
#

T10 overall not CS

#

Granted my test scores were not bad

#

Yeah but what I’m saying is that grades already the end all be all. 3.85 seems high considering I know people with 3.7s getting into pretty good schools

#

i was public

#

from NJ

#

And I’m Asian

stark basin
#

UCLA UC🅱️ 3.8, 3.9 GPA is like the minimum bar, or at least it's not gonna make you stand out or anything
it's extracurriculars, awards, and application essays by then

#

source: 4.0GPA, not a lot of extracurriculars or competitions, got into 3 out of 18 colleges I applied to

#

do you really want to go to Caltech for CS though

#

Oh god Fyreblaze

by good gpa I mean like 4.3

still pawn
#

That’s cap lol

cyan garnet
#

i have ecs to back my case not including internships

stark basin
#

colleges are only getting harder to get into

oak kite
#

I think Berkeley or UCLA if you’re not from Cali is really hard to get into

cyan garnet
#

not good to say the least

oak kite
#

i am a rising junior

stark basin
#

lowkey CS is mostly basically the same curriculum and level at always every college with CS anyways

still pawn
#

Depends where you go to high school lol if you go to a competitive high school where everyone wants Berkeley or LA it is a lot harder

#

Either that or I’m just very stupid

stark basin
#

ah yes
the duality of man

near swallow
#

Some of us went thru curriculums without classes like os/arch/compilers/systems. Trust me. Or how about this: no algorithms class till semester 5

brisk halo

nah tbh mit/cmu seem much more rigorous

near swallow
#

Believe me. If u have a good curriculum. Appreciate it.

#

Honestly I don’t get the pressure about which college you go to after you get 1 internship at a nice place its a leveled playing field

no dsa till semester 5

If anyone is interested

stark basin
#

damn maybe sd but not maybe irvine

oak kite
#

yeah it’s good CS program

stark basin
#

ive heard UIUC cs is really good

#

how much of that coding performance thing is actually because great CS programs or just because the schools are selective af in the first place so will probably have better programmers

oak kite
#

I mean at a certain point there’s this margin for error

#

like how many people are actually taking code signals individually from each school

#

MIT probably has way more people taking code signals than Yale

plush girder
#

I didnt know that

oak kite
#

Yeah also the article says that they aren’t in the top 30 but I’m pretty sure they are

"Developed a full-stack(MERN) web app that allows users to collaborate on a singular document and make modifications simultaneously."

#

Should i remove or keep the word "singular" here?

#

thats my goal actually

#

like google docs

oak kite
#

Capital ones hq is in close proximity to UVA which means naturally capital one recruits from UVA meaning they tend to do more code signals

rapid swan
#

nah

vernal furnace
#

Oh it seems I got accepted to that Greylock techfair thingy, does anybody know what even happens at career fairs? Like would I just tell a recruiter I’m interested, dm resume and get their email? Are these even useful?

#

Just to add on to that (primarily asking cuz I’m a noob) but broadly speaking what’s the main purpose of such events is it to get a recruiters email/direct contact or do they fast track u into interviews if u ask them in such “tech fairs”?

all of south asia is racist

#

stoic glen
#

Bro, it's not even that. I hate how certain brown guys (I'm brown btw) promote absolute disgusting behaviour

#

Trying to act like thugs when their parents live in million dollar houses

#

It's honestly dumb

first time i came i was getting legal work done like standing outside of service ontario

#

i went into a store and asked if i could use the bathroom they said no and i asked i will buy smth cuz yk some places dont give their br out to public

#

lady got pissed at me

#

was just one scenario could be she was having a bad day or whatever but yea

stoic glen
#

Damn

i think its just GTA

stoic glen
#

Which is stupid lol

cyan garnet
#

but i am not sure since i havent been out of GTA in Canada

I remember I once went all the way down to rural Arkansas

#

I thought it would be racist AF, and I'd definitely be called a terrorist or some shit lmao

#

But no... the people were actually insanely nice

#

Much nicer than where I'm from (a rural area in ontario)

#

I think most people aren't racist
density might be higher, but still the big majority aren't outwardly racist

stoic glen
#

Well... it depends on the area tbh

#

I was in rural Kentucky for a year of high school as an asian transfer student
some of the nicest people I know

#

though one reason might be because I usually interacted with younger people

stoic glen
#

Yeah, I feel like there's a very vocal minority in rural America that gives the area a bad rep

#

Because literally all my experience there was positive

#

Me neither

#

Canadian racism is more subtle

#

But American racism is very to your face

#

I'm in rural ass indiana rn and I was volunteering with a local church group, and like everybody was so nice

#

I'm gonna make a wild claim that the people of America might just be the least racist people on the planet (the average person)

Goldman sent me an oa. I applied to three locations, but on my Goldman applicant page, it only shows one of the locations as “hackerrank interview stage completed”. Does this one hackerrank consider me for all three locations, or will I receive individual hackerrank for each location?
