unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:47 PM

#

#

newgrad dogwater tho

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:48 PM

#

unborn dagger if this is real im dropping google for sig

nah i doubt

#

their pay is low

#

for new grad

#

and thats qt

#

but honestly, the works seems really interesting

#

for this role

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:48 PM

#

wait i swear swe was same or similar

#

this is 2023 so it probably went up

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:48 PM

#

it varies quite a lot i think

#

and theres not that many data points

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:49 PM

#

wait actually

#

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:50 PM

#

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:52 PM

#

damn was the levels swe one fake then

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:53 PM

#

actually, its probs not even 85/hour, its just cus of signing as well probs

#

so 50/hour makes sense

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:53 PM

#

Bro ain’t no way

#

So this intern pays the same as faang and lower for full time

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:53 PM

#

the role description is pretty vague but it says low-latency cpp so idfk

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:54 PM

#

pays 140k new grad

#

lmao

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:54 PM

#

140k is good for PA

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

finite timber the role description is pretty vague but it says low-latency cpp so idfk

yeah honestly, doing it for the work

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

downside is you have to be in PA

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

Bro just go to zon atp 💀

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

compared to other quant firms, not so much imo

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

sure

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

unborn dagger Bro just go to zon atp 💀

lmaoooo

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:55 PM

#

but i dont think anyone should complain about 140k new grad

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

nah i think we should for the amount of effort it takes to pass a quant screen

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

yeah honestly

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

fair enough

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

its a new role too, so it might be a bit diff as well

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

someone wanna make a sacrifice and ask recruiter what the role comp is

#

i might do it after the technical if i get that far

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:57 PM

#

they'll likely reveal it

#

in phone screen

#

for intern at least

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:57 PM

#

regardless of new grad pay it's a good resume builder for new grad roles

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:58 PM

#

is it better for quant resume wise than google?

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:58 PM

#

idk id imagine

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:58 PM

#

for quant def, for tech, google probs better

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:58 PM

#

i feel like any actual quant experience would help more than non quant

#

from the description it just seems like a C++ swe

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 10:59 PM

#

finite timber from the description it just seems like a C++ swe

partly yeah

finite timber Oct 2, 2025, 10:59 PM

#

but also no idea

unborn dagger Oct 2, 2025, 10:59 PM

#

c++ swe seems ideal for citadel and hrt

coarse solar Oct 2, 2025, 11:00 PM

finite timber Oct 3, 2025, 4:57 PM

🤷‍♂️

coarse solar Oct 3, 2025, 6:52 PM

#

unborn dagger FR

U know any info?

unborn dagger Oct 3, 2025, 6:53 PM

#

wait about what

#

i have my call in 10 min

#

i think this is just basic C++ dev for quant systems based on the description

coarse solar Oct 3, 2025, 7:04 PM

#

Gl gl

unborn dagger Oct 3, 2025, 7:08 PM

#

bro this recruiter has not showed up lmfao

#

r they using zoom or calling i thought they were supposed to call us

finite timber Oct 3, 2025, 7:18 PM

#

Pretty sure phone call

coarse solar Oct 3, 2025, 7:20 PM

#

Isn’t it zoom?

unborn dagger Oct 3, 2025, 7:28 PM

#

LMFAO yeah its supposed to be phone but my thing was on dnd so i think it like autocanceled

#

bro i asked about comp and they said "no info at this stage"

#

lowkey cooked

#

its a cool role though, wed be working on low latency c++ desk trading stuff

#

whereas qsd is more like python strategy algos

#

might get rejected tbh i told them i ahve big tech deadlines and i dont have that much c++ exp

coarse solar Oct 3, 2025, 7:32 PM

#

💀 bro, why’d u say that at the end

#

Wdym dnd was autocancelled

unborn dagger Oct 3, 2025, 7:33 PM
