proper river
#

prolly not

dreamy forge
#

or will I be provided with the resources

proper river
#

they'll help u out, most people ik had a great time in sepp

dreamy forge
#

I was a bit worried that i might not get familiar with their tech stack

dreamy forge
proper river
#

yea it can depend

#

but it comes down to team/personal factors, no predicting that

dreamy forge
#

ah

#

also, how easy is the return offer

#

I value that a lot

proper river
#

team dependent but seemed like if u were competent and wanted one, u could get one

dreamy forge
#

wdym by team dependent

#

like

#

if my team does well we all get it?

proper river
#

depends on team/org needs and funding

dreamy forge
#

ah

#

what r some tips you have for me, im fully committed

proper river
#

well try to get a vibe of ur project but since its defense u may not know for a while. while ur there, this is generic intern advice but talk to as many people in the company as u can, build network and also befriend as many other interns (try to get their provided housing as well, helps with this). and communicate all the time, sepp is all experimental so nothings gonna crash and burn if u dont do ur job, but try to build something cool while ur there cuz they give u a lot of resources in my experience, make the most of it

dreamy forge
#

for housing i got a stipend

#

500/month

#

wdym by try to get their provided housing

proper river
#

u can sometimes have the option to choose between that or company housing

#

i got lucky enough to get company housing and def worth over the 500/mo option

dreamy forge
#

oh bet do yk when I can pick

proper river
#

u should pester ur recruiter

#

idk

#

i got recruited really late last cycle

#

so my exp was different

dreamy forge
#

oh sweet

#

is company housing mad close

#

to the office

proper river
#

yea lol literally a 3 min walk across a parking lot for the office i was in

dreamy forge
#

oh bet

#

yeah imma try going for that

#

did u also get the 500/month for housing

proper river
#

no lol

#

they pay rlly well for iowa tho

#

housing + 4k + 36/hr my year

dreamy forge
#

yeah i got similar

#

except its 37.19 for me

proper river
#

nice

dreamy forge
#

so they only gave u the provided housing option and not the 500/month right

#

im just tryna figure it out

#

cuz if i have the 500/month then would it not allow me to recieve provided housing

proper river
#

nah i initially recieved the 500'/mo option

#

then some ppl dropped out of housing (renege)

#

i got the otpion then

#

u should just beg for it ik some people just didnt get offered it for no reason

#

there should def be space in december i think

#

also sorry if they like somehow no longer have it or smtn lol maybe the case but prolly not

dreamy forge
#

Oh bet

#

Yeah I’ll ask my recruiter tomorrow

sleek oracle
#

i got ro and they said no rosewood just stipend now lol

sleek oracle
#

yea lol
