apparently they mixed up the teams
so i interviewed for charging team even though it shouldve been firebolt team lol
yooo congrats @hearty quiver how was it overall
light
ended up getting a leetcode easy/medium lmao
python too
just really chill interview
but ive heard there's like 2 more technical rounds
brutal
hell yeah, you love to see it
oop. must be different for every team in total num too
altho I think 3 is most of the teams
You shall ace them all 
bro job apps literally the squid games
seems like 1st rounds have been chill overall
yeah
u did first round too right?
not yet, mine's tmr morn
i see i see
i honestly just got lucky
i may not be as lucky for 2nd or 3rd round
if they ask trivia
trivia is always the end of me
tbh just job market for the most part
so we take the W
Ah so expect non tagged leetcode for ur next two technicals
๐ญ
brooooo
Always prepare for the worst man
I recommend doing some of the past LC dailies as well. They usually have some new pattern that might help
bet
i appreciate it man

Bruh that a lot of technical rounds
Gl man u got this 
ahh congrats on moving on! @hearty quiver
thank you ๐
Howโd u know
just heard it consistently
asking around
Really hope I donโt have a third round
did u do 2 technicals?
Yea
lol Tesla entry level is 125k?
I thought itโd be closer to 200k ngl
Much lower than I thought
tesla pay is pretty bad
ngl
liek that's really low for the location in cali cuz the cost of living is so high
even for rent
but the pay is known for being terribel at tesal
and WLB also bad
twitter/X is a better Musk company to work at
WLB better and pay higher
Yea thatโs actually trash pay wtf
and NYC and nicer office
ye
the pay is ass at tesla
but it's a good stepping stone for interns
ik
idek
meta also 1 roudn too lmfao
and ng is only 3 roudns too LOL
Meta bar is higher
like bro tesla UR NOT HIM ๐
Fr
and double the work hours
idk man
it's okay
but i wouldn't say it's super amazing either
damn isn't WLB at X also as bad as Tesla?
id say lower than zon
i know for sure Tesla hardware/mech eng has horrible WLB
nah i heard from people X isn't as bad
oh for sure yeah
those mfs get overowkred like crazy
Less Tesla interns than zon
but bro even for my intervie
type shi
Zon has too many interns bro
my interviewer sounded so tired
like i genuinely felt bad for my interviewer
either bro woke up from the fattest nap ever or elon is milking him like a cow
bro just wait till u hear about Rippling's interview process for intern
pay is like 50 usd an hour tho, but
still
what's the process like
Jane Street pays more than twice and they have less rounds than Rippling
iirc
OA
phone screen recruiter
2 tech phone screen
2 final round tech + 1 behaviour final
๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
possibly both 
I do not want a third round for Tesla bro
wtf
๐ญ
7 roiunds of processes is insane
that's gotta be illegal bro
U guys sure itโs 3 technicals?
idk my friend said 2 technicals + 1 hiring manager round
bro they do whatever the fuck they want, who's gonna stop them ๐
yeah
just prolly checking if ur a good fit
I will stop Elon
how was ur second techncial round?
did u just have leetcode tagged?
or was it trivia
leetcode tagged? or naw
dont know, never looked at tagged
is the hm round tough or nah?
was it leetcode? did u get any trivia?
donโt think so
nvm i skipped to final hm round
Orzzzz

Man rizzed the interviewer n recruiter so hard he got skipped to final hm round

๐
brooo hopefully i get this
hmm they said it would be mix of Coderpad + behavioural (why tesla, etc) and resume grill
Praying man ๐
U got it
๐ญ im actually gonna crash out if i donโt get this
cuz then iโll have to grind another like 100 lc problems for verkada ๐
Bro u aint gon get caught lacking for Verkada Lc
praying for that bro
Two of my friends failed Verkada cuz of HM or cuz of react questions 
bruhhh
Wait hold tf on u have hella processes
they ask react???
Man is drowning while i am dying of thirst
mines for backend
๐
For frontend yeah
Okay then expect backend or sys design round then
yeah idk i was hella lucky this year and then last year for winter
sadge
Naw u just cracked i saw ur vlog bruv
my friend at verkada told me the process but the hm round is where most people mess up
๐ breh
my one from last summer?
i had to take return offer for the fall co op term lol
Yeahh
U cannot push either of ur summer offer?
i could to like fall term
but like then iโd just be taking a whole gap year from school
Why not? I need a whole year break from Loo

naw idk๐
i wanna stay with my friends for grad
Okay thats fair. So im guessing u do summer then winter?
honestly idk
yeah
Ahhhh fair fair
or at least i wanna finish up my 3rd year
Aight bet do that then
cuz then afterwards i donโt really have to study in 4th year anyways
Is fourth year just technical electives and design project?
Mine also said this
How they gonna ask coding and behavioral in mere 45 min
ye
idk
i honestly think itโll be more behavioural but the. again they still gave coderpad
my interviewer went overtime for first round
so i think itโll be more than 45 mins
Damn thats what happens when u rizz successfully. I cannot relate 
Just be prepared for anythijg. HM always ur opp man ๐
I got it for my 1st round today + plus a bunch of theory q's (but it went to 50-55 mins)
throat got so dry had to sip water when interviewer would bring up the next coding problem LOL
I hope they lmk next steps fast because it's just about to be march ๐ฅฒ
Theyโre pretty fast
i think it's just cuz next week is one of the last weeks for recruiting for tesla so they're trynna hurry it up
Damn what
Thatโs quick
W
no clue
Aight goodluck man

next week wednesday
niccce glgl
i hv 1st round of interview on Mon, what type of behavioral questions can expect apart from "Why Tesla" ?
bruh tf my first round is next week, hopefully they speed up the process so i can get it over with
@hearty quiver in your final invite round does it mention if you get to work with your preferred languages?
I hope this isn't the round they ask me to write in go or rust lol
idk
same
if i get asked to write in go itโs gg
any idea about tesla swe intern pay?
15 bucks
just bombed mine lol
i had no clue how to do it so he just ended right there
ye final hm
make sure u know the technologies that ur team is doing
shit
not dsa
idk why i cant just learn ts on the job
yeah it's ridiculous ngl
thats how u know tesla tryna milk u for 4 months
yep
that sucks bruh
i wish they could just give dsa bro
ill prob get the official rej today
bro ๐ฆ
although hm alr rejected me on the spot
damn
yea i asked the recruiter to switch me to another team
all good
idk if its possible
im still pissed cuz the jd was so outdated and had nothing to do with the team's work
so i literally had no way of prepping for the right stuff
wait shoot so it didnt even match the jd
bruh
wtf
wait im cooked if i get asked golang ๐
they didnt ask u it in the previous rounds?
nope
just python
like one leetcode and then we just talked for like 30 minutes about life and work lmao
Location: Working Onsite in Fremont, CA
Ideal technical skills or experience: Full stack programming skills and experience with relational databases. Experience with Go, JavaScript, SQL databases, NoSQL databases, LLMs
Nice to haves: Built passion projects outside the scope of their school class requirements. This includes websites, apps, or anything they can show on GitHub.
it rlly depends on the hm
but any of Go, JavaScript, SQL databases, NoSQL databases, LLMs is fair game
my q was on multithreading and i didnt have it on my resume
wtf
ig ill study up on Go, SQL, honestly JS is not important, guy from the first technical said LLMs could be important
but i i legit have no LLM experience
oh fuck
that's insane, sorry to hear that man
it's joever lol, Go is a tough cookie
honestly feel more comfortable with rust due to recency of use
that's wild
ig one blessing for me is they have python as their first language listed
they did grill me on tech stack q's but didn't require coding in them (ig python fit the bill)
Go is cooked ๐ญ, python is chill
SQL not bad i guess imma run thru some sql leetcode
golang idk how to even start ๐
blessed
you might acc get offer bro
ur chilling
idk boss, will just grind some go and rust until friday ig
and q's on the nice to haves
since it's coderpad they can't do the nice to haves. I'm gonna ignore sql completely since they just mentioned diff dbs
i managed to ro into mle intern at my prev
besides that 0 offers
whereโs that
they have a high bar ig
cant say cuz its doxx, its a mid company
kinda?
id say tesla is a better name tho
imo tesla isnt rlly tech either
its a car company
unless ur in autopilot
true
you just got done dirty imo, since it's so team-dependent
yeah fair enough
i mean i only got shopify and mid tech offers
so tesla would be a huge big step up
id rather get a lc hard
i literally couldnt write a single line of code for mine
I declined my RO at fidelity like a clown ๐ instead of accepting and then reneging later. so I need this LOL
some people ik get so lucky just getting asked leetcode bro
yeah same
bro ๐
๐ญ
got f'd by hubspot in the final back in Oct too since the interviewer sabotaged so uhhh
no offers atm ๐ aimed too high
multithreading for an intern interview is ridiculous tho
bruh
ah jeez
for my first interview, when bro asked my experience in Go
straight up told him I'm hella rusty
but down to learn more and refresh
yeah down to luck
oh for python on my resume I listed flask, django, and fastapi
so might revise all three ๐
ya itโs all just luck tbh
but tbh, would be crazy if they did a specific library
thatโs insane
since they don't mention those 3 at all
but always possible
true
they probably donโt even need to hire interns
theyโre just trynna get like aa much cheap labour as possible
and see whoโs an easy money snag
yea cheap labour, cuz all tesla interns ship things
ye honestly itโs not too deep especially if we got other offers
tesla is thaaaaat lit, itโs like aight
the only cool part is being in cali
for me at least since iโm canadian
are you loo?
๐
rest api ๐
nope, U alberta
i see
facts
if i donโt get tesla at least i got arcane season 2 ๐
TRUEEEEE
ending was a lil rushed tho but thatโs aight
๐
yeah
like they're good at everything except for games LOL
nah the games r good too but yknow what I mean
imma start watching frieren after tesla interview
๐ yeah idk anything about league
iโve never played it lmao
keep it that way bro
i just like watching shows and movies
honestly not a big gamer other than roblox lmao
I am or used to be a big gamer
I've dabbled in some league
used to play a fighting game called brawlhalla competitively
made a couple of bands and got out
yee
roblox horror games with friends goes so hard
oh respect
but playing is lit with friends too
it's mostly Lua right?
Yeah Lua
nice
yooo that's sick
crazzzzy
i see i see
Yeah mine is Golang, javascript, SQL, but on linkedin my interviewer got python and golang so hopefully just python lol ๐
are u doing it for ng or intern @amber python
it's for intern
i heard from a past team member i could get asked golang trivia
oh that's sick I love Go too
my guy has a billion networking terminologies and devops tools listed
so trivia is probably guaranteed
ye facts
had it first round too so wouldn't be surprised
what do they even ask
ngl idek
OSI layer stuff?
differences btwn certain protocols, use cases for different ones vs the other, etc
I gotta revise this too
tcp vs udp?
oh brother
stuff like that
I had to go into prev experience too that was relevant to answer a bit
ig if itโs networking then that makes sense
yeah hm might ruin it all lol
nah yall got it, I ain't even have my first round yet it's tmrw
o damn
itโs chill
the technicals havenโt been too bad
we all got to ๐
just leetcode for me at least
yeah I hope it's not trivia
lc I'm fine but also depends on topic I ain't the lc wizard either
one of us will make it out fr
I wish yall luck I gotta prep for AMD too at like 3
๐ซก
glgl
glgl
dang gl, got cooked by AMD, they asked me to debug c++ code but no c++ on jd and it's all python ci/cd stuff
๐ญ
oof that happened to me
it's tuff out here fr
happens ig ๐ญ
the role was rlly cool tho it's like a centralized ci/cd for testing gpu architectures with specific games, they were talking about how they got to test a bunch of games b4 release some big ones like call of duty, spyro and more
RIP, hopefully they still take you
got an exam tmr so I'm switching btwn tesla prep and exam prep. brain is getting deep-fried
just finished python basic http stuff. gotta still do Go, Rust, and flask for tech stack (sorry, using this thread a bit for accountability on prep)
nah nw, having school and interviewing at the same time is always hard. I wish you luck, looks like you're prepping properly hopefully you don't get asked some bs 
bruh
my guy rescheduled it to monday
๐
ai bet that usually means it's gon be chill cuz they'll be like "ohhh im so sorry bout that etc."
lol
mine got rescheduled and they didnt even let me know
still got railed
my ahh was sitting there for 30 min
๐
oh shit
yeah you should be chilling cuz tesla is still coming out with reachouts for summer
i need them to switch me bro ๐ญ
@hearty quiver @woven egret are any of yall interviewing for full stack pos?
i think they're moving me to another role
more screens
lets see if i can pass the res screen lmao
oh gl!
backend for me im pre sure
yooo W
so u just had to email and they said "bet"?
that's lit
midterms done. now, will I be able to relearn Go from scratch?
find out on the next episode of dragonball z
I'm doubting they'll ask me to build rest apis in python, since those commonly require frameworks like flask. I'll probably skip prep on those
you got this
good luck! had my round 1 today went p well, lc + linux trivia got mostly everything
can't wait to get cooked next round fr ๐ญ
SRE on autopilot ai / high perf computing infra
so p much expected
tuff
ye that makes sense
yeee seems rlly interesting gotta lock in for it fr
got go basics down again ๐ซก just gonna practice implementing some lc easies in it, and try concurrent webcrawling
I'm doubting I'll get asked to code in Rust. only trivia I think
practiced rust too but eh
imagine doing all this prep only to get asked harder lc meds ๐ญ
also got a bajillion things to cover for devops and networking
ngl I don't have the energy to practice proper webcrawling in go
it's a bit risky not covering it but I'm not sure if they'd even ask for it
whenโs your interview?
yeah imma do that today
did a little bit of sql leetcodes lol
yah honestly i donโt think thatโs necessary
tmr ๐ซก
good idea
thx king ๐
GOOD LUCK man I believe in you!!
hm is principle swe right?
how did u guys manage to skip
I got a staff swe but ye
and ngl idk I got no clue, didn't even think that skipping was possible
wait so
im confused
my prev hm round was a principle
which is like 2 levels above staff
might be team dep, recruiter said it's the final round so pretty sure that's HM right?
srry idk the levels at all thought those were similar ๐ญ
Yea weird
My 2nd round was w a staff
Its staff -> senior staff -> principle I think
ah ic
thx boss!!!
hell yeah ๐ค
artic and I had it happen too
I just hope they do a lot more behavioral ๐
wasn't able to do go concurrency and shit but oh well, did what I could
just grinding theory and behaviorals now
oh dang rlly, that's hype fr. good luck tomorrow, hopefully it will go great 
so did the hr tell u guys that u skipped a round?
nope, it's just the hm one is always a final as far as ik
they said hiring manager and ask questions about the team
this guy's above staff as well
sr.staff
๐
alright guys, see you on the other side tmr ๐ซก
gl yall
same
you got this brother
i think it's just team dependent
YO
they skupped my technical entirely
just did behavioral
told me what to learn before joining. that's got to be a good indictor. seems like my first round was crazy for that reason. hopefully land it
@hearty quiver
@amber python @unborn warren
YOOO
NO WAY
WWWWWW
BROOOO
THIS IS HUGE
if I get a rejection imma crash out because vibes were great
did u still get sent a coderpad for the interview tho?
lmao yeah
W bro you probably got offer
but bro dipped
HUGE
wdym?
he just said thank you, I'll let the recruiter know (not sure what), and they'll reach out to you
it was just behavioral and questions about the team
hopefully you land the new one boss
tbh I might still get rejected lol
who knows
tyty
no that sounds like good vibes
only celebrating if I get the offer letter
๐ hopefully works out lads
YOOOO that sounds like a good sign, hope that's an offer!! sounds really promising
๐๐๐
Would be the greatest bait and switch if he says nah haha
The craziest thing was
Man asked me if I had done DS&A at uni before ๐ like ofc
Exec team review is happening now, before they give an offer
So it has to get approved first
Apparently very few ppl fail it
LET'S GOOOO
yeah I heard that from a friend
dropping that !process tesla offer
thx for the support y'all
got a text from the recruiter congratulating me
so no shot they say no offer now
I haven't sent the write up yet tbh, moreso that the recruiter said welcome to the team
but it sounds guaranteed
yessir
u just had ur final today right?
me? yup
thx!
INSANE YO
BRO THAT'S HUGE
HOLY
bro made it out
๐ญ thx y'all, I appreciate all the encouragement 
was terrified cuz of stupidly rejecting my fidelity RO
but break time : D
thx man ๐ญ I hope y'all land them too
hopefully hopefully
when u booked for @hearty quiver ? still waiting for scheduling myself
monday
thank you man
@woven egret so like they gave coderpad but told u in the interview they were gonna skip the coding part?
GL GL, could get booked for monday too but idek yet gotta wait for the email
also I clicked on ur profile and I think I've seen a vid or two of urs bruh shiii
and I was there at hack the north too, sick project yall made
bro got aura
lmaooo
thanks man
๐ hoping to make more after im outta the trenches
Forgot to answer this btw
Nope, he didn't mention it at all
Just asked me if I did DS&a at uni and was confident in it
Again, I think it's cuz they already threw everything in the 1st round
๐
nick tao is aight
but heโs kinda like average for loo standards
in terms of career progression
still cracked relatively though
just waterloo students are insane
cockroach labs and avg is crazy, ik what u're saying tho. I don't go to wloo but I imagine the graph is pretty sparse, lots of ppl are cracked fs but lots of ppl also struggling in the shadows I feel like
also bruh this fr turned into our own lil chat haha
yeah but that's his last co-op
cockroach seems super cool
ah yeah that's true, idk too much wloo lore but I thought that would be cracked
yeah cockroach seems sick asf ngl, rlly small hc though so ๐
yea
yea i think loo students in terms of jobs on avg get like the same jobs or better that most ivy league students get
it's just the culture ig
more work and startup focused
im nervouds as shittttt brooo
24 minutes

either im hugging the shopify offer or im headed to fremont bro
wish me luck boys
ill see yall on the other side
GLGL hope it goes well 
i j finished mine lol
howd it go
mine went well yo
he said he'll let me know soon
is that a good sign?
Should I do followup email?
He gave me his email
@amber python
@unborn warren
yooo that's good to hear, hopefully you get it bro 
idk if it's a good sign or if you should followup, guess you could say thanks for interviewing or smthng like that
It was aight
how did urs go?
Not good not bad
oh dang was it a final or like a first round
I speed ran the coding but the other parts were shaky
he said they'll reach out to me and he said if they don't then he will
Final ig
They had my feedback from the previous team
what'd they say
Ur tweaking
oh dang that's sick if u get transfer and skip prev rounds
hopefully u get it bro
hopefully we all make it fr
Nothing, just that they know I interviewed for the other team
Thanks bro

when should i send followup tho
U can chill for now the decisions are quick
hmmm maybe rn or in like 24hrs idk though
Same day or one day delivery tyshi
i think same day
otherwise might be wraps then maybe
I think it's all recruiter and org dep
but maybe who knows
๐
Tesla WLB is... something
Bro the interns leave at 8pm
๐ญ
Yea itโs doomed
LOL bruh idk if I would even work there FT
it's def a good intern exp tho even if the WLB is shit, u'll probs learn a lot
Youโll learn a lot for sure
i think my chances r good cuz
the current intern rn
is from my program
in my school
and he knows my friend
so might be good
Thatโs good
apparently that kid knew me
holy waterloo aura
from my youtube channel lmaooo
but i did not know him unfortunately
where r yall from?
dayummm the cur intern was in ur int?
I go to guelph u might know where that is
maybe โ๏ธ
nah i heard him in the backgroudn tho
oh no way
what year?
my cousin goes there
but she studies biochem
The US of A
and my friend goes there too
lucky mf
yeee I'm third yr, it's pretty chill

3rd team is the charm
type shi
how did ur finals go? mine went well but I can't rlly tell if the guy fw me ngl ๐
they passed my profile off to another recruiter ๐

dang that's crazy ๐ญ
i'll admit i prolly didnt perform the best
