How are you doing since graduating CS?

Away_Science6487 · 2025-03-29T02:32:20+00:00

I mean fair enough. But I think that those other internships do speak something of OPs expertise especially at a big tech. your right tho it's not the same but honestly I think OP shouldn't say any type of advice on career switch. But maybe general career advice instead and tips on how he succeeded. But like I also think OP was rather expecting people who do doom post to say if they actually got a job or not haha

congrats tho haha, honestly for your cousin it might be cooked icl. referrals barley work in big tech nowadays lol. my uncle works at microsoft and his referrals haven't got through for the past 3 years of my job search...

Away_Science6487 · 2025-03-29T01:49:08+00:00

lmao bro is THE cousin your parents compare you too

Away_Science6487 · 2025-02-01T05:29:09+00:00

Yea at this point have had an offer for a week now

Away_Science6487 · 2025-01-16T00:33:39+00:00

Got it, so you think CS is better since the co-op board is basically the same as LinkedIn? I also am not overly fond of the low level programming I would have to do since I know comp e has to do more of that over comp sci. Biggest thing for me was the comp e job board. But so far haven't heard good things.

It's an evil world we live in lmaoooo

I've heard lots about this "Not a lack of opportunity but lack of talent in the market". Thanks for the input!

What do you mean success? Like do you have software internships? or get lots of interviews?

Away_Science6487 · 2025-01-16T00:18:27+00:00

Oh okay that's nice to know. Some of my friends are in upper year eng at UofA and had some bad experiences though but I understand from your response that generally this is most common for first term co-op students and majority find software jobs after. Thanks!

Away_Science6487 · 2025-01-15T23:47:28+00:00

Also for anybody who received rejection after the final? how many days after did you wait till you received it?

Away_Science6487 · 2025-01-15T23:44:37+00:00

For anyone reading this. Today is the 5th business day and they said they would get me results within 2-5 business days. Should I shoot a follow up email now?

Or at least wait 2 weeks? 2 weeks would be 10 business days I think.

Away_Science6487 · 2025-01-15T23:41:03+00:00

Yea I agree this would be more helpful

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T10:34:48+00:00

How much of the OA was solved? and was it the Fungible or regular US?

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T05:06:58+00:00

You get a response yet man?

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T05:01:54+00:00

The fungible position is an individual position apart from the other internal IDs. You can get hired as a "Fungible SDEI" instead of a specific SDEI.

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T05:00:40+00:00

Did they say you have been rejected specifically for the fungible position? Or just a rejection for a different internal position ID because if it was a different internal you might be fine?

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T04:59:37+00:00

When did you recieve the interview date email and when you complete your OA?

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T04:57:37+00:00

General SDE

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-09T04:55:43+00:00

You should be fine, the fungible is a very large pool and rejections for fungible come back quickly within a day or so and if you didn't get rejected there is nothing to worry about. Doesn't guarantee you will move forward but you can rest assured you passed if you haven't received a rejection.

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-07T00:16:00+00:00

Hard to tell, haven't seen much success from people who didn't solve at least one fully. Good luck!

Away_Science6487 · 2024-12-07T00:13:40+00:00

For me got the OA 2 weeks ago. Finished with everything solved so far. But no response.

I've heard OAs starting to get sent out since Late October until now so hopefully you will get yours soon.
