#How’d you find final?
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Would say similar to Microsoft difficulty — harder than amazon but easier than google
did you get the offer?
okay so now i know its hard 🙂
Because they’re interviewing thousands for final round so competition gonna be really high
what the hell
Nah it’s not hard just the competition is gonna be so high
theres no way thousands
That’s what the guy claimed at the beginning lol
i mean how many will get selected ? 60 or like less
No idea
wtf
i think he meant thousands of OAs
Nah he said final specifically
i dont think they have enough staff to do 30 interviews a day
yeah that seems insane
Idk maybe I’m an idiot and misheard probably more likely lmao
that’s also like $500,000+ lol
i think they might hire 30-50 people
In hourly wage costs
im not even sure
was it straight up leetcode for the 2 technicals?
oh aight ty
how about the mission/values
just behavioural type shit? @daring mirage
@oak verge fyi
been watching this, thanks <3
it wasn't too bad for me
but the intro person said that there weren't many people having a final, she claimed they filtered hard before the final
But I still think I got rejected just cus of competition
Wait really? How many people did your intro person say were being interviewed?
Idk why there’s such a big discrepancy in their responses lol
the final was pretty rough
they said the same bullshit to me too @grim moon dw
I haven't gotten a rejection yet but it's been a few days since my final and I'm kinda bummed
Wait yes actually lmao
there were like 10 people in that zoom
so I'm assuming they had probably like 100 people max they were interviewing
and probably like 50 offers to give
Yeah the acceptance rate is really high once you get to that point
I think they had 2 blocks of interviews for 3 days I think
You got any outstanding offers?
theres obvs gonna be other days to itnerview
I have VMware and edX and then google for fall possibly
If I somehow get Roblox I'd be done applying
So really hoping I got lucky
@bronze pawn They said this year they were planning on just having a few big interview days
thats why the survey I filled only had two days
makes sense i gues
I got that message too, but I thought the day we had the interview on was the only day. That's the vibe I got since they just kept emphasizing how strong the bar was for us to get to the final
but it's prob closer to 2-250 ppl if they're hiring 50
the bar was codesignal the cognitive lmao
i dont get how it was that selective
yeah and they resume screen hard after too
i aint that special
but a majority of the people on the final call were 840 dudes
tho i did cold email the same recruiter that hit me up
@bronze pawn when is urs?
not scheduled yet
yeah I had 841
but yeah the recruiter was like take it easy because if u have made it this far ur past the hardest part
Yeah I love that 220k comp vibe too lol
its 250 now I think
Yeah but that name brand
Kind of a weird thing to think about but I'd rather tell my asian ass family that I work at Google
rather than having to explain what Roblox is
with roblox on ur resume I don't thinn any resume screen will look down on jt
but then again that sweet comp
looking on LinkedIn people go from Facebook/Google to roblox pretty often
yeah explaining it to non swe people is probably tougher
but also u can flex on little kids that u can ban their account
fucking facts
I wish Mojang paid a lot
lmfao except technically roblox isn't a game
I'd love to just shit on kids in Minecraft
honestly working for COD would be nice insta ban people from voice chat
yea riot would be sick
Ngl i know it sounds awful but im so glad theres other ppl who think theyre not gonna get in too lmao
I was gutted and so stressed cause i heard the guy saying they were gonna interview a ton of people so i was like there’s no chance
I think there’s been one on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday so far
Can we make a roblox survivors support group 🤣
Pretty surr
I aced technicals and open ended
But I choked on behaviors
Interviewer was really stern and made me nervous
Dunno how much they matter but
My answers to follow up were lackluster
Hopefully I get it fingers crossed
@gusty wing
U got rejected already?
Nvm
Don't u guys have a pretty good idea of how well you did?
The interviewers were really vocal about
How well you were doing
And communicated really well
Yeah I agree
You interview today?
Nah I did already
U know how many they taking?
No i had that as one of my questions to ask but ran out of time lmao
Should be like 25 interviews per day from what I'm hearing
How many days, do you know?
Nope
Ah
But I think they heavily filter before
So we'll see
I think they are expanding quite heavily no?
Yeah def
But idk i could have swore my intro person said theyre interviewing a ton of people
Like he said the reason they need 2 weeks was so that they could have time to review all of them since theres so many
The intro girl said they were looking for confirmation
@bronze pawn when u get ur final scheduled can u ask them how many new grads they’re planning on hiring 
First two were really nice and I felt like we hit it off
but the last two felt like they were just being polite
idk
Hmm seems like
There was a round of final invites yday
So I'm guessing it's 6 interview slots
This week
None next week
Dang that's a lot of finalists
Is roblox your guys dream company also lmao
Talking about random shit for 30 mins
Was fun
Naw it's not but shit 250k comp is the dream
Did y’all reach out to ur interviewers after the final
Idk lmao
wait you're supposed to reach out after final? yikes
Doubt it helps
Yeah i just thanked them at the end but idk if they’re looking for like a more personal connection since it’s a smaller company
Really doubt it
They'll most likely reach out on Monday at max
but then again, they can string us on until December if they really wanted to lmfaoo
That’s what they did last year lol
Nah I think they won't fuck up like last year
yea i wonder how bad its gonna be for cs majors in 5 or 10 years
Another day of no word 
I didn’t email
ah it might help to do so idk
Wait u heard back?
no i haven't had it yet
When you get a “Thank you for interviewing with Roblox” email and almost have a heart attack and then realize that its just asking for survey responses 
I never got that email rip
Did you say you were available on the days the google form had?
How long ago?
last i heard they said they were scheduling for october
Or email the recruiter
like first week oct
Wait were the dates on ur form for october?
Ohhh ok
2 days
did u do urs already?
if so, howd u find it
which is what the thread asked
xd
Yeah i only had an option for september unfortunatelt
I posted a little about it above
wait what was it like
like in terms of LC difficulty
and num of questions
in each technical
ah okay that's cool
Hey is anyone able to access the candidate experience form?
Nope
anyone follow up with roblox yet?
how well do u think you did?
on a scale of 1-10
Meh bar raiser for me i think couldnt really get a gauge on if i did good or bad and assuming thats the most important round probably reject 
im scared, im wondering how many engineers do they hire
if they only hire 7 i dont even think i should do the interview
@daring mirage bar raiser is the open ended?
wtf is a bar raiser
ohhh i see, i must have missed that earlier
lol i make league cheats
and my interviewer plays league so
first interviewer who understood my project
250
shiiiiiiit
Was 250 a return offer
Damn still high enough to make me depressed when i get rejected feelsbad
^^
no offer so far 
how long ago did you do the final?
last tues
next week
a week ago
also my friend got the offer last year around decemember
so idk if they have alot of space or now
not
maybe they hire 50 devs?
50x 250k is alot tho so idk if they are
If they make us wait 3 months to hear back again im gonna be so pissed
they have a shit ton of money
technicals I finished with like 20 mins to spare but the behavioral I have no clue
i got my scheduling for next week
and in my email they said they would get back within 1-2 weeks
so if u guys did it a week ago u should hear sometime this or next week right?
@grim moon for both?
yeah
so just had a casual convo with the interviewer after
didn't vibe well with the first but the second seemed chill
Dang
Couldn't finish second q
But wasn't expected to I think
Interviewer said my approach a lot more efficient than other approaches that he saw
does roblox only have one round of interviews after the code signal?
a technical + behavioral right?
i think 2 technical?
just an hour and 15
idk lemme check
2 technical interviews, a behavioral interview, and a vision/values behavioral interview.
this is for intern
oh whoops I'm in the wrong place
lol
lmaoo
goodbye
Another day goes by 
its been a week for me now
Said 1-2 for me
screw it I'm gonna follow up now
just say u have an offer from jane street and they will follow up quickly
or then they decide that they don't want me because I'd probably go to Jane street either way lol
alr I followed up lets see what happens now
they gave me my final time today
ah isnt like an hour or so of it a break
Yeah it’s only 45,45,45,15 for the actual interviews
that seems very manageable
Big fan of 45 min interviews
Fuck no response today either
yep no response on the follow up either
just waiting for the sweet rejection
Roblox pls
Tomorrow’s gonna be the day we hear back i can feel it 
It's actually sad because I can't even negotiate using other offers because Roblox is just so much more superior in TC lmfao
Todays gonna be the day friends already got 2 rejections today roblox gonna finish me off with the 3rd
i think our friend meant "today is gonna be yhe day friends. [I've] already gotten 2 rejections today."
sorry to hear that ty44 my dude
None of us want the grind to continue
Oh my bad for misunderstanding
is the final hard
i havent taken it yet but i dont really care to take it tbh, roblox and amazon are nearly equal to me
so im not sure if i should take it, i guess worst case it will be practice. but the only other thing im really invested in is stripe, and the process isn't LC-based
wait why is amazon and roblox equal for u?
F
rippp
i think amazon's name is better esp since i dont plan on getting into game dev
i also don't like their tech stack, i know they use lua a lot. i think they use something else like C#? or F#? idk.
i've been matched with a team at amazon that does really cool stuff and uses python/java/react which would be more preferable there
hmm interesting but roblox isn't really game dev from what I got from their interview
also salary difference isn't THAT important at that level
yeah true, that point i had isnt really that strong
yea its not really game dev
also idk anything about san mateo. i need to do some research
I have amazon rn but thought roblox was 10× better
but I'm just basing off people's opinions haven't interned either place
ah okay
i have a friend who interned at roblox
and he said it wa sreally nice and the people were cool
& that they used lua mainly
pay nice is af tho
i wonder how hard final is
Do they give feedback at least
@strange oriole @supple nova when did yall interview?
Did u get feedback?
Im tired of getting rejected and being told nothing 
i think i did bad on behavioral
but
the technicals were easy
for how much they screened
pretty sure everyone passed with flying colors
Yeah think the bar raiser was the most important and don’t think i did good on it
i doubt they give u feedbak
especially if u did well on technicals
u had to have had truly impressive ideas on bar raiser i g
Feelsbad i wish they told us more about what it would be like so we could prep
Wasnt expecting to have to use my brain for a behavioral round
Intern heard back 3 days after interview 
I'm probably guessing if they are taking this long we're getting the L
but idk why they can't just give it to us faster
Lol I think u'll get it since u are the outlier here
what was bar raiser
could you give an example
ah i see
thanks
Ok today is gonna be the day no more games 
I doubt it we're ghosted
Lmfao we’re waiting until December
Still no response from follow up?
yup no response
I wonder if the others who heard back had a different receuiter
@daring mirage if u don't mind could u dm me yr recruiter
Sent request
Not letting this thread die until we all get our rejects 😤
just wondering, whats the diff between bar raiser and vision/values again
they both seem behavioral but is bar raiser some behaviorals + that open ended problem
another day no response
Yes
If i don’t hear back by 5pm pst ill email my recruiter
My profile pic increases my luck by 50%
20 minutes 
someone posted on intern channel saying they got offer today
maybe they forgot about ft lol
How is it possible that theyve given out ZERO ft offers
Are they hiring like only 5 kids
I'm not sure, they aren't even rejecting
i saw on a subreddit they are only hiring 43 new grads
Oh wow
but that sounds about right, hrt only hires around 25 core dev and 30 algo this year too
Is the 43 number including return interns?
@wicked nest
uwu
just new grads
uwu
43 seems like a decent amount tbh, I would guess at least one of those would be on this discord
Do you have a link to this thread by any chance?
This is actually super insulting ngl
if they’re doing the shit they did last year then I’m just rejecting myself lmao
on the interview intro call this morning they said 2-3 weeks after interview lol
Wtf
bruh
my final is this friday
but my offer deadline is next thursday
should i just not do final
I’d say still do
Can’t hurt
Maybe your results will get jammed in with ours
true
good practice as well.
i haven't had a single technical interview yet
except for the mock interview hosted by my cs department that i just attended, in which i received "reverse a linked list"
lol i think i was in the same call
but they also said they were doubling or something over the next year
idk maybe i misheard
Did they say how many people theyre interviewing?
they changed 1-2 weeks to 2-3 rip
2 more intern offers 
I think interns prob have less rounds than ft
Maybe takes time for all the debrief to go through

what were ur finals like?
what's the bar raiser like? is that LC?
also was there any sys design
intern interview is literally 45 min technical + 30 min behavioural
one of the easiest processes for this TC
they did say again tho "we screen really hard to get to this point" lol
makes sense
This is so sad
Still nothing 
@daring mirage did u follow up?
Not yet going to send out an email today
yup another day no response
Omg
Is it an interview
yeah they say interview
poggers
What time did you get the email? Tomorrow is my 2 week mark 
4:49PM EST 2 weeks from my interview
Wtf another interview??
Got the L today 

@grim moon do you know if this VP chat is a standard additional round?
not sure, I don't know anyone else on the discord that has it
but they say chat a couple times, idk if its like a casual chat or an interview
yeah haven't gotten a confirmation on when yet tho
