One of the problems in tech 2 was like a reworded meeting rooms 2

Keeping track of users and their favorite artists

[marble kelp]

[shadow otter]

[shadow otter]

Yea

[gentle scroll]

Did you put nyc area as your preferred location in the app?

[shadow otter]

Don't remember

This is what my career profile says

[dense sequoia]

🔥

youre working no where 🔥

[shadow otter]

I'm actually surprised asf I got nyc

Thought it was full

[dense sequoia]

tbf i didnt even kno amazon was also in NY

[haughty scaffold]

i dont even understand how are they hiring?

are you from ivy league @shadow otter

[dense sequoia]

was ur onsite in person, or virtual tho

[dense sequoia]

what does that even mean

[shadow otter]

I go to a very shitty college in NYC

You would never have heard of it unless u live in NYC

[dense sequoia]

Mf def goes to Cuse 😂

[shadow otter]

It's a cuny

[haughty scaffold]

i am jus asking

[shadow otter]

If yk what that is

[dense sequoia]

oh thats dope

got friends there

[jade vortex]

when is ur start date?

[vale oar]

How did you prep for ood any resources or tips?

[marble kelp]

yeahh mostly lost on OOP

how to prepare for it

[shadow otter]

Not really, I didn't prep. I just made sure I remembered knew how to make classes in python

For new grad they don't require you to know design patterns

You'll see a lot of stuff about ood online where people have complicated solutions

But for new grad all you need to do is able to create classes and methods

And make something that makes sense

If you've done oop in school that should be enough

[marble kelp]

okss

[marble kelp]

and do you remember the LP ques?? like mainly what they concentrated on?

[shadow otter]

I remember a few

"Tell me about a time you recently took initiative to learn something which later had a positive effect on you"

"Tell me about a time you really had to dig deep to solve a problem and find the central issue"

[kindred barn]

How many follow up questions do they ask for LPs?

[frozen cobalt]

is it fungible SDE role or any domain specific role?

[shadow otter]

general

[marble kelp]

thanks

[tiny delta]

Are they really hard on behavioral? Like are we okay if we have basic stories and not too good ones? ideally, how many minutes should we answer a question before any follow-ups?

[shadow otter]

Very hard on behavioral

But I kinda got unlucky

I had 6 behavioral questions, they didn't even ask me about my experience

It was straight to behavioral

Other ppl had more chill behaviorals

Theirs last only 30 minutes

You should prepare very thoroughly for the behavioral

And think of any possible follow ups

The follow ups were tough

They really dig deep

[tiny delta]

ooooh! 🫠 i have mine day after. I’m still not sure about behavioral. How many stories did you prepare? And were they over 3-4 minutes?

I don’t have any experience and have stories just on projects and stuffs so i am worried if that’s even okay or not

[shadow otter]

3-4 minutes is fine

[shadow otter]

Most of my stories were about a team group project I did with ppl outside of an internship

[tiny delta]

ooh, okay! Thank you so much!!

[vapid spoke]

can you give an example of the kinds of follow ups they ask? do they expect you to quantify your stories?

[plucky steeple]

How much TC, Base and stocks have they offered for the NYC location?

[worthy schooner]

141,900 base + 44,100/36,400 bonus + 122,590 stocks 5/15/40/40 vesting schedule (192.1k TC)

[plucky steeple]

Ok, Thanks, are you an international candidate? Or US Citizen?

[crystal robin]

I remembered getting similar questions but then the interviewer asked my some follow-ups because I missed some parts of the question but I was able to answer it. am i cooked :(( @shadow otter

it was weird that i applied too early when the job didn't have a specific job id so rn for some reasons the recruiter told me that she couldn't access my account for result :((

[dense sequoia]

[worthy schooner]

Every company does this?

[dense sequoia]
