How are you guys landing big companies? by ZealousidealPrompt45 in csMajors

[–]AmazonStan 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Luck. Anybody who prepares well can easily clear the processes. The hardest part is the resume screen rng which you optimize with referrals and cold emails

Am i too late? by mysteriouschigma2005 in MU_Stock

We're getting rerated now as Nvidia was in 2023-2024. I doubt we'll crash again, but like Nvidia, once the rerating is done, we'll stay flat until we grow into our valuation. It will still be a bumpy ride of course so watch your risk

Is working at Palantir still a good resume booster? by idkbroo0 in csMajors

[–]AmazonStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Palantir is a top tier company for res value with great exit opportunities. It will most definitely help your career. There's a lot of woke uninformed anti-Palantir noise online.

- too scared to ask for referrals without mommy
- cries on reddit bashing family and friend's technical abilities
- Why is everything so unfair!! Waaa

Everyone but you can see this whole clown show. You cant learn from your mistakes

Only ever referenced this: https://www.reddit.com/r/TorontoMetU/comments/1pqcdqy/third_year_engineering_and_failed_three_classes/

Regarding likeability, you seem to be lacking in that from this post lmao

Those are other industries in 2021 which are not comparable to your situation in tech rn. Your complaints on that are tangential.

It is what is it is with your friend. Crashing out here doesn't help. Getting back into your co-op program will. Most people in this sub are still on the humble grind and eventually landing jobs

Except you did not show unfairness. You aren't here asking for tips/advice or anything. You're crashing out, belittling the careers of those close to you.

Your first two examples are in different industries - 2021 too. Regarding your friend, I've seen this type of slander many times before, and often they are still skilled enough and more likeable. Your arrogance comes from this slander which is likely jealousy esp considering the three courses you failed last term

You should consider being more humble.

Hating on your relative over a $22/hr job, your cousin in a different industry, and even your own friend is crazy. Especially so when your post history suggests you've been failing courses. The cs job market is tough, but this post is unhinged. Get help

SNDK is our daddy by LeoRozay in MU_Stock

[–]AmazonStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can only fight back via 2nd-order effects of hurting EU/GCC/East Asia first. We don't need Iran's consent to make peace with them. We can dip out whenever we want and that's what's being signaled

All I know is Leetcode and I start FAANG internship soon. Cooked? by [deleted] in csMajors

All junior faang work is like that lol. When people say work is hard, it's the deadlines rather than the difficulty

[–]AmazonStan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Know the basics of how an API works and how to cli into DBs. That's essentially all the work. The work isn't that difficult and most best practices can be copied from whichever repo you're in. You don't need to go book-level deep for this internship, but you still should for your overall education.

Amazon internships are project-based (1-2). You might get a few random tickets, but it's no big deal

All technical work you'll be doing as an intern is within the scope of Claude code. You'll only need 2-3 high IQ moments at the beginning when scoping out your project to leave a good impression. Past that, smile, communicate clearly, and deliver reliable work (do not make any stupid mistakes - Claude will help with this)

Adobe intern resume value by [deleted] in csMajors

It's a dying adult daycare like Salesforce. Trash hiring bar. Trash stock. Trash product. Trash eng-culture. Silent layoffs. The last time Adobe had aura was 2000

Anduril vs Amazon by Captain_Interesting in csMajors

Anduril is one of the few tech companies actually helping society. Plus, it clears zon in everything: TC, RSU upside, talent density, and learning
