[worldly pewter]

Hello

[desert trellis]

Do I get free tinder gold

[worldly pewter]

Yep! I have tinder plat

[desert trellis]

For how long?

[sinful furnace]

can u give ur recruiter's email plz

[worldly pewter]

Tech they are supposed to take it away but i still have it

[desert trellis]

Lol

What prev experience did u have

[worldly pewter]

U can find her on linkedin, Krista lubiano

[pliant glen]

Do ppl judge you when u say u work at tinder

[worldly pewter]

dont think so

I just think its funny when i say it

Cuz its like more of a shock that im there

[pliant glen]

what if u work at grindr

[worldly pewter]

debatable

but a job do be a job

@ me if yall have anymore questions

[pliant glen]

Is it remote

[desert trellis]

@worldly pewter how much an hour, relocation assistance ?

how easy was the leetcode

[scarlet quiver]

was codesignal gca or custom?

[desert trellis]

@worldly pewter what’s the pay

[fiery shell]

Do you get to rid the algorithm and force yourself to the top of everyone's feed within 50 miles

[worldly pewter]

47 an hour and relocation idk. U may need to ask but i wouldnt see why they wouldnt help

[worldly pewter]

47 an hour for LA office

[worldly pewter]

tinder platinum puts u at a priority above other regular members

but i was a web engineering intern

[desert trellis]

@worldly pewter do you get more matches if you work at Tinder

[worldly pewter]

Codesignal OA

[worldly pewter]

i didnt say i worked at tinder on my profile but tinder platinum did give me more matches

[scarlet quiver]

yeah but some of them are unique to the company and others are the general coding assessment where you have to submit a score

[fiery shell]

How much does tinder platinum cost per month?

[worldly pewter]

Mine was fully remote but i went into office anyways cuz they had free food and it was a cool ass office. I also had a second mentor there

[worldly pewter]

Alot

[worldly pewter]

U can submit a score i believe

[fiery shell]

Oh 20/m

A pretty chunk of cash

[worldly pewter]

Yeah

Good thing is tho (i didnt do this during my internship) BUT since tinder is ubder matchgroup, u can ask for premium memberships from the other companies like hinge and okcupid

I shouldve copped a hinge premium account cuz thats goated

Not an intern, im gonna be a new grad but lowkey im about to postpone my graduation at this point

[finite quest]

Tinder IC2 is 200K sheesh

[worldly pewter]

Behavioral wasnt bad with the recruiter. She just told me what the role was about and if i had questions. Then for the final round (no live coding at least in my experience) and the EM just asked technical hypothetical questions such as “what would u do in this situation…” or like “are u familiar with React? What is this specific concept about?”

[worldly pewter]

Yep sounds about right

IC1 is roughly like 160k TC?

I think

[scarlet quiver]

huh so no whiteboard coding?

[worldly pewter]

Yeah dont believe so. My recruiter told me that they dont do that for interns anymore

But previously that shit was extra hard for any full time employees

[finite quest]

Do interns return get IC1 or 2

Wait so codesignal is the only technical?

[worldly pewter]

I think IC1? I wouldnt know i didnt get a return offer

[worldly pewter]

P much

[finite quest]

What did you score on it

[worldly pewter]

And then the final round is just like semi technical but just testing ur knowledge of stuff

[worldly pewter]

Like a 715?

I think

It was shit

[scarlet quiver]

think the bar will be higher this year

hopefully i can just send my previous score

[finite quest]

do they do fall at all

[icy ore]

Will they accommodate late start date?

Like august

[finite quest]

or that yeah

also what was EM round, just behavioral?

[worldly pewter]

Maybe

[worldly pewter]

dont think so? I think these are summer internships

[worldly pewter]

It was behavioral mixed in with technical concepts

[worldly pewter]

hm dont think so? U might wanna ask the recruiter

[worldly pewter]

^

[worldly pewter]

Dont think so

Maybe?

Idk

[cinder tide]

also do you happen to know if they sponsor

[sinful furnace]

did u get it?

[pliant glen]

how long do you think the app will be open for

[worldly pewter]

From what ik, i know some ppl were on visa so i believe the answer is yes

[worldly pewter]

Probably 2-3 weeks. They do their applications fast

[pliant glen]

Backend just closed :/

[worldly pewter]

JUST CLOSED?

I swear they opened yday

Maybe they havent released backend

[pliant glen]

naw it was def there earlier

[worldly pewter]

Was it?? I never seen it

If so thats actually so unlucky

[finite quest]

Nah it was open

Lmaoooo too many applicants

[worldly pewter]

Yeah just spoke to my recruiter, they said they got an influx of apps and closed it. So that means android and backend were closed asap

Sheeesh

[pliant glen]

ML also gone

[pliant glen]

do you know if they plan on repopening it lol

[worldly pewter]

Dont know yet. Depends how desperate they get

[worldly pewter]

Damn i just saw it today too

DAMN

WEB IS GONE TOO

[fiery shell]

Holy fuck

How many lurkers do we have here

Did someone publish it to a public forum?

[finite quest]

20 lurkers

in the mf discord

[pliant glen]

that many lurkers??? lmao

[worldly pewter]

[cinder tide]

what the fuck

how is there that much competition

our field is fucked

[kindred lava]

Dang about how many ended up asking you?

[fiery shell]

[thorn tiger]

@worldly pewter i don't got no exp with ios/android dev, can i still aply and be competitive?

bro is it that hard to guess a recruiter email

[worldly pewter]

sheeeet

I don't know

I'd say the previous interns had some experience with android/ios dev

[thorn tiger]

Also I'm not 6foot and I don't got a 6in can I still apply?

[worldly pewter]

of course, how do you think I got in

[thorn tiger]

Ok Mr 7ft 7in

[worldly pewter]

[thorn tiger]

Do they sponsor maple leaves? Or is it remote?

When'd you work btw? Is the work fun? Interesting?

[worldly pewter]

they probably do sponsor maple leaves and it was remote!
