[thorn zodiac]

[vital drift]

Oh fuck

I’m waiting on results

I did this mondays interview

Do u know anyone that got rejected so far?

[gaunt whale]

idk anybody who got rejected

[thorn zodiac]

no one getting rejected we all gonna be in nyc 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

[vital drift]

Gonna be me 😭

[vital drift]

Do U know anyone that took the final?

And been a week

[eager rover]

@vital drift may I ask how was your final? I will have an interview with datadog soon 🥺

[plush yoke]

W

[vital drift]

i think i did ok

i got 2 questions but couldnt get to the third

[eager rover]

wait did you get three LC questions 🤔 ?, I thought typically there are only two LC questions in datadog interview no?

[vital drift]

idk

[gaunt whale]

i had 3

my recruiter told me from the beginning there would be 3

possible they change the format based on grad date or exp

or whatever

[thorn zodiac]

ime i got two then around ~25 min left there was more than enuf time for a third question but interviewer said nah no need for another

that's ofc after i solved the first two

[orchid lodge]

Yo my recruiter said nothing about number of exercices what

[thorn zodiac]

i had to ask how many questions - 2-3 they said

interviewer towards beginning of call said 2. so i guess that implies the third question is up to discretion of interviewer if they need mroe "data" points to reference

[orchid lodge]

Alrght maybe it's different cause I'm in Europe but let's prepare for 3 lol, what is the difficulty of those that you got?

[thorn zodiac]

lc easy lc med

[orchid lodge]

And how many time the interviewer takes at the beginning to talk about one of your projects? Around 15 min?

[thorn zodiac]

i forget tbh we went overboard by like 5 min on time recruiter said. seemed interested but if i had to guess maybe 15 yeah

[vital drift]

i took the entire time for 2 questions 😭

so

not god

[thorn zodiac]

i mean you solved both and communicated well nah ? that's what really matters

[vital drift]

communicated well one 1st

2nd i kinda brain dead

but i solved it with a bad implementation with correct logic

and they told me how i can optimzie implemnentation

and i fixed it to theirs

and got it working

[thorn zodiac]

nice

[vital drift]

so idk

cause i think they stack rank

and i did worse than the average imo

[thorn zodiac]

DATADOG MF'S STACK ???

maaaaaan

[vital drift]

i think so

[orchid lodge]

oh and did any of you guys get a DP question? cause they mentioned on their guide there will be no DP but 🤔

[gaunt whale]

i find this unlikely bc like

so far only a handful of people have done final

and they’re already giving out offers

[thorn zodiac]

i mean yeah there's no way tehy can stack rank jus for someone (literally you) to get an offer rn ya kno

[gaunt whale]

yeah

[thorn zodiac]

yeah it's true - no dp

[gaunt whale]

i know somebody else who has the call on monday

so prolly offer for him too

[thorn zodiac]

wrap up call ?

[gaunt whale]

yeah

(i think it’s legit just an offer call)

but i’m not tryna get peoples hopes up lol

bc supposedly datadog only email rejects

[vital drift]

I’m praying

So fucking hard

[ornate swift]

@gaunt whale congrats! what's the pay/benefits btw?

[gaunt whale]

~8.2k/m

only 6k for relocation tho

[thorn zodiac]

6k nyc - not that i know what nyc real estate is like but isn't that kinda low

[gaunt whale]

yeah it is low

for 4 months too

def gonna be paying some out of pocket

[thorn zodiac]

guess this will be the first intern season that i room w people

[chilly summit]

When did you have your final?

I had mine 9/7 and still waiting to hear

[thorn zodiac]

yesterday !

waiting game is hard

[chilly summit]

Yep! Does anyone know how quickly they reject from final

My interviewer said there were 2 questions and then we finished with 30 minutes left so he gave me a 3rd and I solved that one too

[gaunt whale]

is your recruiter AS

[chilly summit]

Yes

[gaunt whale]

so weird how some people were told 2 questions and some 3 lmao

[chilly summit]

It’s based on time tho

Like if there is time they’ll ask a third

[gaunt whale]

oh nvm i misread ur message

thought you said recruiter told u 2 questions

[chilly summit]

Oh no AS said 2-3

[gaunt whale]

ah okay

[chilly summit]

I just hate how long it takes to hear back

It’s stressful

[gaunt whale]

took me a lil over a week

yeah

i did final day before you

[orchid lodge]

1 easy 2 mediums or?

and no dp?

[chilly summit]

Ya

[frosty iris]

@gaunt whale do you mind if i dm some questions?
