Sorry to hear man. How many questions did you finish?

misty cypress
#

2

#

was kind of taking my time on them + kinda did some unnecessary stuff to make one of them better

drowsy plume
#

if it's any consolation, I moved on with 2/4

misty cypress
#

what internships did you have if you dont mind me asking

#

it would probably be the most surprising thing to happen to me ever if i moved on

drowsy plume
#

6 internships in total, most are no-names though

drowsy plume
#

misty cypress

2 internships at the same place

#

its a big name but not at all known for swe or anything

drowsy plume

#

And his rejection was almost instant

#

Because he had low quality solutions, so if u spent time making sure they were optimal dont lose hope yet

misty cypress
#

i dont even remember one of the questions but i couldve made the other slightly more optimal

#

i did o(n) searches twice when i couldve done them once

drowsy plume
#

if they weren't nested then it doesn't matter that much

misty cypress
#

yea they werent

I applied long back for META and still waiting for OA... Any tips to get the OA

#

Like reaching out / refferal may be?

misty cypress
#

just did std::find(v1.begin(), v1.end(), str1) and std::find(v1.begin(), v1.end(), str2) for 3 vectors

Did the same, applied in NOV

#

couple of times submitted the same application again 🥲

misty cypress
#

couldnt figure out one of the questions and was running out of time so tried it in python to use math.ceil and stuff but didnt do it

royal egret
#

misty cypress
