#!process zon final, went well?? when
lost chasm
how was it
went so good
damn that’s good
yeah it’s just wednesday so it’d be a good friday surprise 🙏
who was ur interviewer?
i don’t remember my guy’s name
but he was like some i think arab or indian guy
o
nvm then
did he have glasses?
and a beard
nice
yeah bro honestly i’ve only gotten cooked at nvidia
i mean nvidia
tesla wasn’t too bad
pretty easy
o damn
yall got the same guy looool
he had his 2 days ago
i’m assuming zon is doing a new wave cuz so many people must’ve reneged
on damn
wtf
o damn
i think new interviewers wouldn’t get waitlisted, it’s prolly either accept or reject
wayyy too late for waitlist now
cuz visa process takes 3+ weeks
damn
if y’all had to pick Tesla or Amazon which would yall pick
my interviewer was like SDK and then embedded or somethin
fr?
dayumn
i might just do gap year and do both
might push amazon to fall
if i can
mine was on like some team called grass green ☠️
or green grass
no clue
apparently like you could essentially make a component that could handle how you deal with secret keys and secret managers
i forgot
nah me and the interviewer talked about life for like an extra 45 mins
same thing happened for tesla
usually i get pretty chill interviewers
apart from nvidia 
i got interviews like everywhere somehow lol
#1 canadian school (waterloo), won canada’s largest hackathon and my linkedin post went viral so i got reached out by like ramp, verkada and a bunch of other companies
prev experience has been pretty standard though like no faang not even big tech
but i think my tesla manager went to school with my current manager
ye
honestly i think
school year is the biggest factor
and also school name
should be enough to get you some interviews
i just have insane luck
i think maybe 350 applications max, maybe 20 interviews or so
you got reach out?
i just put my hackathon stuffs
and then my first internship people really like too cuz i did some cool VR stuff for the government
☠️
all good man
do u go to school in canada?
i see
top 10 school?
naw
seattle i’m pre sure
i see
how good are ivy leagues
yea true
some are way better than others though lol
UWashington seems pretty cracked ngl
so many amazon and microsoft peeps there just cuz of location
🙏

i noticed that after i posted my hackathon post people started just straight copying it
