zion fat
yep i’m really hoping i get an internship next summer
Paolo the real homie
imma be a college junior soon
u got this
paolo gonna help the magic get back to the playoffs
yes
ima magic fan
i think more of 18/9/5
im thinking 0/0/0/6
@sinful locust can you stop
Divide each of those by 10

Made this with a couple friends. Sign up to get notified about new internship postings on https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2023-Internships
we're at the peak of tech
lately ive been seeing too many normies trying to get in
theyll give up
how do uk
@sinful locust yo
yo
:stop:
@sinful locust goes to your school
:pepestop:
dude why are u like this
at least waterEater is joking
Stop
Hows maple leaf
good.
Are you in van
no
@sinful locust
i saw that
that’s exactly my point
the barrier to entry extremely low
and that’s gonna drive down the value of being a code monkey
its not sustainable
my friend in Amazon does no work all day 😢
it is
we’re not gonna be able to work long hours when we’re 40
it wont make a diff
just bc u work longer hours doesn’t mean ur chances of getting let go lowers
ur connecting two unrelated things togather
dumb shit
that’s wayyyyyy too high
nvm i read that wrong
i thought u said 25 in 100
but it’s 1 in 25 
i just saw 25 and made up my mind
compared to what?

depends
I was able to answer the hards I got optimally so I'm not sure
If the absolute optimal one requires something like RB trees or something then prolly not and something that's good enough will prolly suffice
honestly tho I feel like you've overprepped for goog you'll be fine
unless you're very unlucky
how do you overprep for google
legitimate question
my first phone was a hard 
the other ones, the main qs were med but follow ups were hard and had to code since I had a lot of time left
he's done like 700 lc

I would say that's overpreparing
you're overprepped for life
I went in with just B75
i've done like 200 in a month
in burnout mode rn
learning java to chill
maybe if you just say something about hash tables and doubly linked lists they'll be happy

this one kinda doomed unless you've done this before tbh
feels like every greedy lc

I believe in you @queen raven
When you get return offer for ft pls boost my linkedin i think I’m shadowbanned
U know ur fucked when wagons says ur doomed
just a quick question:
do I need to put a "YES" in the question of H1B sponsorship even for a "Summer internship"?
PS - I am a grad student on F1 visa.
Send the exact question

Is J412 a competitive programming chad 
anyone done meraki OA?
do I need to put a "YES" in H1B visa sponsorship, if I am just planning to do a summer internship at the company?
I think he had a 1800 score on cf
It's green I believe
Isn’t h1b for FT
yes, so while applying for internship, I can simply put a No right?
That’s what all the chads say is enough to annihilate interviews
Yeah should be okay
and if in the future I plan to do a FT at the company, I can tell them that I need visa sponsotship
anything > 2000 is great tbh given if they got there without cheating. I am saying this because in India many people cheat in Codeforces/Codechef contests
Some people do for fun but some do to put that in their resume, I have seen people with Codechef ratings > me but couldn't even solve lc easy ques (brute forced two sum literally after giving a hint to use dict)
One more interesting thing is people pay for solutions in telegram groups for like 10rs, 100rs etc....
It is what it is
I know some Google recruiters reach out to students having a decent cf score
@coarse marten go to sleep
Its morning in London 

Going to work waz
It's 9:30 am
I'm slacking 
mr bog go spearhead some more react components
Mr vexor, should I wear the cit shirt at jp?
welp, it wasn't a scam after all
among my other applications, only this one says "hosted by third party provider", any specific reason?
Is Goldman Sachs OA auto?
Yes
Alright thx
Go to amazonuniversity.jobs and complete the application there
Like 20 apps, 6 OAs,1 phone
damn let me see that resume
im on 43, maybe 4 OAs I wanna say?
Well no actually like 6 yeah
but 3 were akuna lmao
how long do u guys think it will take to hear back from palantir after submitting the OA?
idk
im waiting
very nervous
fr lol i was wonderin if anybody had heard back already lol

Same lol
One F500 data science internship, incoming at “big n”
Waiting on some akuna ones 
anybody else using leetcode rn and its super slow 
i heard back the day after

anyone really goated at swift / app dev here?
yes
yay or nay
yeah i have my phone tmrrw
Wait so what’s Palantir process?
Oa then recruiter phone then karat then on-site then hm?
Did anyone get a google oa?
srry when i mean phone i mean karat. it's oa -> karat -> recruiter -> onsite -> hm
Gotchu
Recruiter directly contacted me tho so idk if I’m skipping anything
ure skipping oa

wait which comapnies
i havent even seen 43 summer postings

I scheduled recruiter call in a few days
No got contacted by recruiter bc got grad date gapped last year
Yea someone said karat after this and I skip oa
You will bag something better
Not those shitty companies
Jkjk
Did they ask like hard-level LC in the interviews?
Pltr interviews are different than pure lc style
Ohhh you haven't done karat?
We meant heard back from karat
1 system design interview
1 on a random Cs topic like concurrency/caching
And 1 coding interview
Related to dsa
1 after the Karat phone thing
or no
Also bog unblock me
keeping that going
No news from palantir so far 
good luck ma
U got it soon?
man*
U got this bro 😎
@coarse marten ill stop harassing you now I promise, no more unblock me jokes
Yh I done the OA just hoping for the karat 😂 
@mystic depot I thought you were on karat already?
Oh damn I thought you had it my bad!
How'd it go
It went good I think. I didn’t get all of it but I got the majority so I’m hoping they will give me a chance for the karat interview 
They gave me a chance that’s all
unlike Amazon 
I am convinced that Amz puts out their apps then forgets abt them for 3 months
then someone in HR goes "fuck!" and sends out all the OAs lmao
Looooool except I got one problem. Mine says no longer under consideration and I never got an email

Prob timeout
Smh big up palantir
Ye sad times I applied to a completely unrelated position in a completely different country 4 months ago
@mystic depot what country are you in?
You can't apply amz US if you aren't in US, you have to apply to your local country's amz
Or else they auto-reject
Not necessarily true
Really?
Everyone I've seen in here gets auto-rej
What cases is it allowed? When your country has no Amz?
Amazon US used to post on our job board (Canadian school) a lot
If ur a wayerlooser
Stopped for a bit from 2020-2021 and now is posting again
Friend of mine got an offer for seattle
there was just a dude from canada in here yesterday who said he applied, got auto-reject, and got an email saying that he had to apply to Canada
Oh damn okay, well that's cool to know
Maybe it's specific target schools or somethin
Yeah maybe
is your friend a loo
Cant tell from the email it doesn’t say anything about it
Is it automatic do u know?
Same lol
We’re at loo yes
She got the offer from a posting on our job board
What kind of things should you expect in the interviews after karat for Palantir
Did u hear back from karat already?
Does retaking a CodeSignal auto replace one done previously?
i think so
Nop did u
did amazon just send a mass oa?
where mine
im prolly gonna do it in like 1 week and a half
Idk time to grind LC tagged amazon lol
ive also been told amazon oa is rng
O rly
Huh
i applied in july last year and never got it 
Safe to say I wasn’t very happy
and now im sort of better at leetcode but im still strugglin
When did friend apply
Same time
where do yall get the leetcode company questions if yall dont have premium
bet
jk that only worked for me once
also wth is their work style assessment?
but idk if you google it you usualy find it
This my first time getting Amazon OA. So from what I’ve read if I do really good on this I’ll just have a 30 minute review correct?
LP personality
whats that
study their leadership principles
OH SHIT JUST GOT IT HELL YEAH BOYS
I DIDNT GET LEFT BEHIND WOOH
lets gooooo
Really?
Ok Ty for clarification
whats 1x45?
^
im pretty new to the process ngl
gotcha gotcha
also amazon makes use of camera for oa?
i did it bro i got the karat invite 
luckily i have a practice interview with meta in a few days
ayyyye
Pov me and palantir the next few days
when did you all apply for amazon
after my 3sum
I got referred june 27
2 weeks ago I think
did u get oa
Yes
Also no ref
yo did you have to continue on amazon.jobs or the university portal
i think i applied on the first day they accepted applications
internships are always on university portal
Was that for NG? I thought internships are university portal
FT are jobs portal
ohh gotcha
interesting
What companies ask LC easies
wait you got a university portal application email too json?
still no oa
ok let me know when you get
is amazon not mostly auto oa
or like 50% or smt
Ngl since we applied hella early and if we get into amazon. We can stop applying to mid tier compaines and focus on google or smt
no stress during uni time either
would go harddddd
That’s a big IF
I am in Canada but applied us only. Amazon Canada a back up (if there is no cooldown)
us
^
us as well
when did you apply? i applied two weeks ago
i didn’t receive oa from amz for summer 2022.
do yall think amazon > bloomberg. im at bloomberg rn and love the WLB and pay is about the same for amazon NG anyway
but talk sense into me if im wrong
so does getting the amazon oa email mean i got past resume screening for them or is that after?
i believe so
Is everyone that processed amazon from Canada
Huh
I'm US just got it
I am US
I should apply
^

Rip
did you select that you need sponsorship on the app
How long ago did you apply for everyone who got Amazon OA?
@fickle ivy are you canadian
nah I am us citizen
anyone do the optiver oa on zyvo before?
fuck dude
amazon and optiver oa same day
is optiver hard? any optiver success kids here who can give me tips
did they not give you a week?
they did
but i also already have cap one
2 weeks for amz i have
haven't checked opt
1 week left for cap1
also got optiver
wanna practice together
Hey do you know what language Amazon sde oa use?
no idea
except brainfuck
what is 80in8
Reddit said no python I'm panic lol
What ATS resume parser do you guys think is a solid alternative to lever right now?
optiver oa
Quant trader intern?
How is Amazon oa for intern spaced? Do we do OA1 + OA2 in one go? Email just says 70 mins for coding and 15 mins for work style
wtf
yea
ah yeah its quant
thats wht i got
damn
yahallo wanna praccy
@fickle ivy was yours for quant?
Is Optiver auto oa?
how long does it take for amazon to send the actual link?
idk don't have mine yet
There’s a python option
The options they listed barely even make sense considering Amazon’s tech stack
Amazon OA for Canada as well?
C makes no sense for a web dev SWE internsgip
hey people
What ATS resume parser do you guys think is a solid alternative to lever right now?
hoping it won’t take months this time
really wanna finish this stuff before school starts 😭
Hahahahaha
The #resume channel
Guys where are the people who got optiver quant offers
I remember some people in here that did but I just wanna ask them some stuf
Same
Nice, did u go thru akuna trader process
I have yet to take the personality test
Not sure what to expect fo future rounds, I’m assuming its probability based
What’s ur zetamac 😈
nah only qd
Is anyone interested in doing leetcode together? I am looking for leetcode buddies
I am also very curious about their interview process. Just got a OA for quant trader position
I have done 50 medium 46 easy 2 hard
But that was like 6 months ago
I need to start again
I have started Neetcode 150
Did you do a phone? I didn’t get past OA but wondering how the rest of it was
I think they resume + oa results rejected me
yea phone was alright
didnt get to final tho
1 lc easy, 1 math simulation problem (geomtric distributions)


is it just me or did salesforce close quick af
they will probably reopen soon
the game is rigged
huhhhhh interesting
@hallow scroll @proud whale How's the Salesforce summit going? Enjoying San Fran?
which is this for
It's too early for them to send OAs for summer right now, they'll likely reopen later
its so good

salesforce?
surreal experience
it closed before i could apply
pretty heavy imposter syndrome though, theres so many ivy leaguers/t15
Do they also give you a stipend or something to explore SF?
Got a qualtrics survey for Amazon instead of the OA 

Mod team on server will be growing in near future to promote better moderation and healthier culture. Any suggestions pls mention publicly or DM me. No mod nominations btw.
Trying to make the space less toxic and more inclusive
what about de modding some1
Remember to be liberal in tagging mods for any toxic things u see
If srs yeah sure just say it but i assume dis a joke 
If yall are actually active here u would know I do one stupid thing for every 10 good decisions. I keep this place clean to my best abilities
Water is a mid tier liquid. Nice try
kirb is the best mod
rip akuna trading phone
the whole phone was just pojer
*poker
and i am notoriously bad at gambling
How to email Amazon's IT team or smth like that
which companies have free food
Is this de shaw final
@hearty river posted some toxic things, I'll keep an eye out and ping you next time
Preciate it. Is there usually a phone after oa?
I skipped that I think
Maybe a mistake
Which part u on
I did the process last year
uhhhh i think swe and quant both
nah just quant
ok ppl
how hard is amzn OA
Oh okay yeah everyone here is rising junior

hi\
lc medium and easy?
Did you apply with or without a referral just wondering
I don’t think optimal on all is required to pass amazon oa
i applied w/o referral btw
i hope it’s lc medium and easy tho
i struggle so much on lc
i think camera is req too
Without
for leadership principle just answer overtime 😈😈
Hahahah
i’m banking on amazon 😩
holy shit another Noodle



yes i am noodle

It’s going great honestly, really cool event
823 codesignal should be good enough for most of the codesignal companies right? i never opened q3 so not sure if they're expecting me to attempt all the problems
can you share time you spent on each question?
yeah i believe so
cool thx
i had 3 min on Q1, 4 min on Q2, and 8 min on Q4. Didn't open Q3
lmao i got pretty lucky my q4 was like the simplest 1D dp possible, otherwise it wouldve been rough
What was it
fib?
Anyone who did nor receive the oa for amazon?
or are yall just cracked
hmm
i really hope i get canada oa

nope
OA isn't auto
do what
no idea
i dont think everyone here got it
who got it
it looks fkn brutal
yo
but since its quant its like a nice break from normal
optiver's 80in8
is
hard af
like bro i can barely add up how much my food costs without my phone
😭
I gotta do practice ones

The what
1 sec
Yea I don’t see it there
Rip
More space for text
anyone get full score on the akuna capital python oa
Thanks
i got 5/8 and don't know why my code didn't pass 😭
Is this the only batch of OA amazon is going to send out?
There are some weird cases apparently
why is amazon oa so easy
this was the easiest oa i've ever had lol
feel like two codesignal 1s
bruh
scronut?
fuck it imma do it right now then
Lmk how it is
Bruh you must’ve gotten lucky then, I got an LC hard for q2 lol
find All Kth missing positive numbers
more or less
it’s not on LC but grok defined it as hard at any rate lol
like given an array of numbers, find the smallest to Kth smallest positive number that doesn’t exist

I got amazon custom questions this time
Like uh [2, 5, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13], find the Kth when k = 4 would be output [1, 3, 4, 7]
Smallest positive
under 8?
lc ez?
cisco oa is below lc ez
two sum?
no dude
my first question was fucking
printing strings
like not anything with strings
fucking
PRINTING STRINGS
💀
got an email from amazon but it was just for a survey 

was cisco fr that easy?
bullshit
i have till the end of the week to do it
how bad is citadel oa? also they didn't give a deadline, what's the longest I should wait to do it?

Same dawg

at laest u got palantir oa
@sinful locust Whats the latest on trade market
ye just gotta grind lc for the karat interview
glgl
Why is it called karat

im not allowed to share
Unfortunate
🥕
what does it take for recruiters to approach you for interviews
ive never had it happen
but i havent had linkedin that long
ig if u have worked with em in the past (my guess idk either)
ngl i think you gotta get on their list first, go to events, email them, apply to a lot of companies, be active on linkedin etc etc
i am guessing unless u have done smth very noticeable they only reach out for ft jobs with exp
yea this too
does active on linkedin mean commenting on stuff
what kind of events/where should i be looking for them
only events ive gone to are hackathons
tech fairs
well ye potentially or it could be adding a post or adding an article, liking and engaging in their posts, contacting them and having a good linkedin profile
career maybev
idk if we have in canada
idk i am a hser i am guessing
u going to hack the north?
i went before im not applying this year
ic why not just curious
cuz i will not be in waterloo in the fall
and did u go in person
and i dont want to travel back for the weekend
alr amazon allows us to google language for reference
they reimburse part of ur travel cost
what
typo lol
and shitty hackathon projects wont help my resume at this point
Amazon tend to ask array / strings and dp right
after 3 internship i think if imma add more projects they have to be impressive ones
bruh at this point recruiters would dm u lmao
i mean hack the north is a big hackathon
u have 3 internships on ur sleeve
i only put hackathons on resume if i win
really?
i mean what if they are all at startups
is that all it takes to get recruiter dms
1 is at a startup and 1 is at a big bank
1 is at a bigger tech company but not on linkedin yet
cuz it hasnt started
Ur set for life.
How’s everyone’s 80 in 8 practice going
Bad
its not really its a hs program and its partnered with a startup
why
Isn’t that supposed to be made to be really hard? What’s a good score?
80 in 8
No clue
I did that in medium first try
Oh I see. I mean that experience alone puts u ahead of a LOT. Nothing to worry about homie
plus its a co-90
co-op
I know it’s def supposed to be really hard
ye idrc bout exp anymore
You have 6 seconds per question if you aim to answer them all
That’s quant right? Not SWE?
The questions I had were all like 9.71/3.6
6 seconds 💀💀💀
Yeah quant
Wait, are you the guy still in HS?
Sheeeesh, too cracked
There are others but I only remember your name here 
I don’t think I’ve started to look for internships until my junior year.
Probably should’ve started earlier but hey, we will all make it
yea cuz i talk here too much

mhm
yo yall better give me referrals
when i am in uni
🤣
counting on u guys
yea but parents wont be too proud
how 💀 ur hero sucks
Ash gonna be a CEO before he graduates
ikr
i am acc in process on working on my startup
probably gonna be next summer before it actually becomes a reality
explain
stop
behavioral is like leadership?
or reguar
Did Amazon change their OA2?
i thought it was to get an overall feel of ur character
behavioral part I didn't know if my type was the type they wanted
It’s a test if you belong to the cult
what are the looking for
Customer obsession 
“if ur gf is calling u and work is calling u where do u go”
i just went with my gut
hoping amazon likes my guts
“cs majors dont have gfs”
did you get OA2 already?
What’s the answer my boy
Oh true!
“congrats u are hired”
cisco OA is a joke 
moved back google OA, forgot to do it, asked for an extension
got google OA next week 🗿
i did the first OA they sent me which was 2 parts
so if there's another OA I haven't taken it
Amazon OA2 I’m p sure you just follow the lp principles and then also that website with the guy explaining the lp principles.

nothing
LC
why do you want to use languages
I GOT WORD SEARCH 2
have a project then use the languages for it
FOR THE LAST QUESTION
WTF
I HAVE 55MINS

oh alr
WHY ARE YOU TALKING HERE DURING AN OA
IM GONNA REPORT YOUR ASS
im allowed to talk
Better lube up my guy
LMFAOO
@sinful locust the answer is u get no bitches

I can be your resource. The answer is C.
what the heck is going on

Try fizzbuzz first bro, might help build the intuition.
is this Cisco
cause if it is make sure it's actually Word Search 2
yes

oh
Wait, I do recall sth like that
rows & cols iirc
bro word search 2 is ez
Nah bro, it’s ligma
bro just do the oa
ok me leaves
one guy fully got printing strings and you got word search ii

u are wasting ur time
I did word searches in elementary school, it's easy
bye everyone
bye
Cisco tmr be like, thank you for applying...

recruiters lurkin fr
if any recruiter here please hire me i am just a hser 
No job? 
not for next summer

thats everyone here
nobody here has felt touch of a female
and if u say u did u are mega capping
my mom just visited me today
word search 2 an easy win tbf 
and it DIDNT WORK
Ope
i was SHOOK
Was it easier
ur moms ur mom
didn't even need recursion
There are legit recruiters here, but they just lurk around
not a female

do yk any that are? not asking who
If any recruiter here fast track me to quant
@hearty river is one of them
yahkuna too@cool to be one
Too much info. Shhhhh

Is the OA for Amz not randomized???
he's a recruiter
tbh if anything imma get blacklisted from every company rather than get offers LOL
