Timeline?

[vale moss]

Can you share the timeline? I just got phone last friday

[wary nova]

Yeah sure, for me it was OA -> First round tech -> virtual 3x45 -> teammatching/final

and that's where I'm at now

[compact crescent]

Is this for fall or summer?

[untold jacinth]

[untold jacinth]

[vale moss]

How long do you wait to get the result after the first round tech?

[compact crescent]

Nah it was acc pure coincidence

[wary nova]

This was for summer

[untold jacinth]

what is three rounds of final technical like?

2 algo + 1 sd?

[wary nova]

3 days for conversion for me, took it on the 12th got next round on 15th

[wary nova]

2 algo 1 DS design

[random wedge]

[untold jacinth]

DS?

[wary nova]

data structure

[untold jacinth]

interesting

so three coding basicly?

[wary nova]

this is for swe intern

Yeah I think they can ask almost anything

depends on interviewer

[random wedge]

thanks bro how hard were the questions

[untold jacinth]

kk

i simp for cit

[wary nova]

The ones I got were mediumish, ds design was a hard

so 2 medium 1 hard

[random wedge]

[wary nova]

[untold jacinth]

is it like those ones on leetcode?

lfu, circular buffer, or shits like that?

[random wedge]

[vale moss]

Thanks for the info. I did not finish the coding in time, praying hard to get move to the next round lol

[wary nova]

yeah

[wary nova]

glgl

[untold jacinth]

kk

[digital dew]

what prep would u recommend for the coding ques?

[untold jacinth]

i might as well just do the entire catgory before the next cycle

[vale moss]

You too!

[wary nova]

It varies a lot imo, but the way I prepped was doing the lc category and reviewing data structures

[vale moss]

Same 😦 dunno if they flagged my profile after failing this time lol

[untold jacinth]

good luck for ur final leadership bro

[wary nova]

use that for reference

[untold jacinth]

i failed the apac one. idk if they flag my north america app

[vale moss]

Do they flag fail attempt? And how long can we apply again?

[untold jacinth]

12 months i heard

i might as well just apply next year

if i do fall ill have to file to much tax

[vale moss]

If I fail this year, I will need to apply for their ft, and it gonna be brutal 💀

[pallid widget]

Citadel flags after failed technical?? Didn’t know abt that

Is that just for screen or on site too?

[untold jacinth]

yes

there is a cool off period of 12 months

[pallid widget]

Ooh thats rough haha i got rejected in october

[untold jacinth]

😭

[pallid widget]

By flag, do they auto reject you?

How does it work exactly

[untold jacinth]

unless u change email i think

[untold jacinth]

i aint working at cit my friend

[pallid widget]

Ahh gotchu

Thanks 🙏

[untold jacinth]

but even if u dodge everything

and get offer

they may find it during bg check

[pallid widget]

Also, I saw you asking abt onsite, mine was just three lc type questions no sys design

[untold jacinth]

kk thx man

gotta grind until the next cycle

[untold jacinth]

do u think cit has a similar bar to hrt or js?

for screening

[pallid widget]

I think lower? Not too sure I didn’t pass res screen for the other two

[untold jacinth]

hmm tru 😭

cit is way bigger fs

[pallid widget]

Did you pass resume for js and hrt?

[untold jacinth]

nope. i was alrdy lucky passing cit

but i think my resume will improve a lot this year

i hope so at least

[pallid widget]

Haha I don’t think citadel has a crazy bar for resume screen, they give a lot of first rounds to ppl as long as they pass oa

[untold jacinth]

i dont think thats really true man. i know a lot of ppl passing oa and not getting first round

[lethal lagoon]

i think citadel hires alot from target schools

like at gt alot of ppl get into the process jsut bc were a target

[hybrid patio]

cit or citsec?

[vale moss]

Is there a difference?

[hybrid patio]

leadership round is specific to cit/citsec

[digital dew]

@wary nova is it true they also ask trivia abt os and networks?

[untold jacinth]

small chance
