Hey can I dm?

tawny tulip
#

@elfin maple u got an offer last year asw? was it for intern and what was your vo performance like

elfin maple
#

@tawny tulip i did not get an offer last year (for summer 2024 intern) - they stack ranked me for over a month after my hm and then rejected me 😎

tawny tulip
#

😭

#

ig that's about to be me this year

elfin maple
#

i also did process a lot later last year - i think i did my hm towards the end of october

#

hopefully you won't be stack ranked as hard since i imagine you're doing the process earlier! 🤞

tawny tulip
#

dyk if they care a lot abt resume value for stack rank

elfin maple
#

i don't know because i'm not a recruiter 😔 but i imagine they do a holistic review of everything post-hm

tawny tulip
#

ah sorry one more q do u remember what ur rounds were like last yr?

elfin maple
#

i won't give you the questions if that's what you're asking

tawny tulip
#

like how did u feel abt the rounds

#

i finished process a week ago

elfin maple
#

tbh it's been so long that i've forgotten lol

tawny tulip
#

fair enough

elfin maple
#

thanks dude! hope you hear back soon too 😤

slate bough
#

i have asked to reschedule bug squash too, my apartment complex decided to have n outage

#

can i dm about bug squash @elfin maple ?

elfin maple
#

@slate bough you can ask in this thread! i have dms off because i kept getting spammed

#

my recruiter was pretty responsive about rescheduling

slate bough
#

Yeah just got rescheduled

#

For the bug squash, would you recommend using the debugger? I mostly just use print statements when debugging so I’m hesitant about suddenly starting to use the debugger

elfin maple
#

i think print statements are def good enough as long as you explain well but using debugger is good signal + there were several points during my interview where i thought “damn i wish i had a debugger rn”

#

but in the end you should do whatever you’re most comfortable with

#

@elfin maple how was you integration and coding btw

elfin maple
#

good enough to pass the bar i guess

halcyon junco
#

Hi @elfin maple, can I dm you?

elfin maple
#

i didn’t do a coding round

halcyon junco
#

So for the VO you just did the Integration + Bug Squash?

elfin maple
#

yes that’s what my timeline msg says

halcyon junco
#

Thank you

fast relic
#

Any information about location? Like are they only assigning people to one specific location or will they let you choose

elfin maple
#

i think i’ve seen other people on this server who have asked for + been given a different location though

#

prob best to ask your recruiter

fast relic
#

Ahhh i see

#

Lolll im hoping i dont get cooked

#

I finished all the rounds for my VO 15 min early and my interviewers seemed pretty happy with my problem solving process? As well as my test cases

#

Tried my best to split up code into helper functions to make it cleaner

#

But yeah i have my hm on monday

elfin maple
#

sounds like you did pretty well! good luck with your hm :)

fast relic
#

Thanks!

#

If u dont mind me asking which location did u choose?

elfin maple
#

i have my offer call on monday too, i’ll try and ask for updates on headcount then

fast relic
#

Just wondering cuz im applying for sf

#

Ahhh nice, yeah thx

elfin maple
#

i’ll be in sf!

fast relic
#

Ohhhh nice

elfin maple
#

i remember seeing somewhere that there’s 30-40 new grad spots for sf

fast relic
#

Ohhh dangg

#

Loll hoping i can clutch up

#

Like i got an RO for amazon but tbh if i could stay in the bay it would be a big plus 😂

elfin maple
#

hahah yeah i was in the same boat except with ms

#

gl again, maybe we’ll see each other in office next summer 😎

fast relic
#

Factsss

#

Always down to meet new ppl

fast relic
#

Just finished the hm

#

Have no idea how well i did but the interviewer was polite

#

And it seemed like he understood the points I made

#

Like he said stuff like "I see", and "yeah" thruout the interview and a good amt of clarifying questions

#

I did kinda stutter a bit but it wasnt too bad i think

elfin maple
#

yeah my hm was also pretty hard to read, pretty sure he said “cool” in response to all of my answers lmao

#

sounds like you gave it your best effort 👍

#

maybe the recruiters will be faster about getting back since ghc is done now

fast relic
#

Yeah quiet interviewers do be like that

#

Yeeee thx

#

Hoping for the best now

#

Whats ghc?

elfin maple
#

grace hopper conference

fast relic
#

Hmmm

#

I see

whole hill
#

Hi could I ask how long after vo it took to get update on passing to hm call?

elfin maple
whole hill
#

Oh ok so it’s like a one day turnaround average

#

Thnx

elfin maple
#

yea take my timeline with a grain of salt though, bc there was a three-day gap between my integration and bug squash lmao

wanton tide
#

hey gratz on the offer! did your strategy necessarily change for the stripe technical team screen compared to more standard leetcode problems?

dusky olive
#

Congrats on offer, how well did you do on bug squash? Had mine today not sure if they expect you to finish it or just do most of it

elfin maple
#

but iirc from last year it's much more similar to the OA, so not very leetcode-y
