[keen bobcat]

if you need advice for the final lmk, i had it for fall and got the offer 🫡

[velvet ginkgo]

plz 🙏

[keen bobcat]

i gotchu bro

it was pretty chill tbh i think i got interviewed by 3-4 engineers but it didn’t feel stressful. I had a hashmap question to start then another lc easy, then it went into OOP using java where they gave me code that didn’t work and wanted me to fix and finish it.

and if you know java i‘d interview using that because they use it at UKG

overall not too bad but it was long @still falcon @velvet ginkgo ^^

[velvet ginkgo]

tyy 🙏

did u end up accepting ur offer?

[keen bobcat]

nah i declined it cause working 40 hours per week just didn’t work with my school situation like id have to take a sem off

but the offer comes in at $27 per hour and everyone you meet is really nice and friendly

if any of you’ve been through the ddog process advice would be great 🙏

[still falcon]

The meeting with the software engineer

The one before you code

[keen bobcat]

[mellow rose]

Ah ok

[velvet ginkgo]

@keen bobcat hey, do you remember if we are allowed to use python for the algo portion of the interview?

[keen bobcat]

yea you can but it’s prolly better for you to use java
