faint burrow
#

yup

#

traffic engineering to be exact

lilac meadow
#

ohh got it

#

okay mine is distributed systems

#

idk why you're certain its going to a live coding, i don't think all of my friends have gotten that

faint burrow
#

for me they mentioned it

lilac meadow
#

maybe it's a traffic engineering specific thing then

#

thye mentioned behavorial and technical for me too

faint burrow
lilac meadow
#

but they were just like "you can expect XYZ"

#

oh yeah for me it was like "you can expect to code, but not all teams do it" type shit

My interview had this and it was all res grill

lilac meadow
slow sundial
#

Tesla interviews are really random

faint burrow
#

hmm fair

#

they did mention res grill as well

lilac meadow
#

what's a res grill...

faint burrow
#

q's on resume

lilac meadow
#

oh got it

#

ugh am i cooked

#

wait did y'all have a phone interview? mine was internal as well, not through the general app

faint burrow
#

worried about rust and go questions since that's part of the tech stack 😭

faint burrow

#

thye require a lot of rust but im bad at it

faint burrow
#

for me they had python, rust, and go as coding

lilac meadow
#

that's the real reason i'm scared bc they code in a language i odn't konw.

faint burrow
#

and a lot of devops stuff

#

oh for me it's coderpad

hexed tendon
#

that tough

faint burrow
#

got a follow-up

faint burrow
#

basically forgotten go and rust is just hard

#

was told in a follow-up on whether it was lc to expect to work in a coderpad style interview using tools mentioned in the job descript or languages I'm comfortable in

#

Python is one of the languages, thankfully

lilac meadow
#

oh you asked?

faint burrow
#

yup!

lilac meadow
#

should i have done that, yikes

#

its just thye told me i may or may not be asked that

#

so i'm banking on only a systems design question

faint burrow
#

worth a shot? they said they can't tell too much due to confidentiality

lilac meadow
#

mine is literally in 2 hours LMAO maybe asking now, is gonna look bad

faint burrow
#

OH

#

I got the email to schedule today

#

glgl

lilac meadow
#

thanks i need it

faint burrow
#

do y'all know how many rounds they do?

lilac meadow
#

wait i was gonna ask y'al lthat

faint burrow
#

it's nearly end of intern hiring season for them

#

recruiter said they stop first week of march

lilac meadow
#

is it actually...bc i think for them it just started

lilac meadow
faint burrow
#

they've been hiring for quite a while tbh

lilac meadow
#

i need them to expedite mine anyway so hopefully it's not more than one more round

faint burrow
#

if it's first week of march, hopefully 2 rounds max

lilac meadow
#

some people i've asked had up to 5, and some only had 2

#

i don't think i heard anyone say 1 round

#

everyone says 2 or 3

faint burrow
#

5 is insane

lilac meadow
#

so do what you will with that info

faint burrow
#

yeah I'm looking at 2-3

lilac meadow
faint burrow
#

I expect last one is probably to sort through sponsorship stuff and allat

lilac meadow
#

no, it's usually two technicals

#

the second one is just as important

#

it's not like an easier one

faint burrow
#

oh I meant the 3rd

#

u alright if I reach out a few hours after your interview to ask the style @lilac meadow?

lilac meadow
#

yeah ofc

faint burrow
#

don't wanna grill you right after

#

thx!

lilac meadow
#

but like traffic and systems are diff by a lot

#

so take everything i say with a grain of salt

faint burrow
#

💯

faint burrow
#

I hope tree q's are never asked bcz I suck at them lol
