if its super well known they might think you're capping honestly (with the context that you still have like 6 months left in the degree)
so you might have to explicitly justify fast promotions (i know meta for example you can get promoted really quickly if you kill it in industry)
you basically hit, while in college, senior in a year when more typically it takes something like 3 to 5 years working full time
