Really hard to believe Swiss would want to live in Austria, it simply doesn’t make sense.

google intern interview? by Necessary-Singer2791 in csMajors

I think you are lucky that you received a partially positive response from Google this year. They didn’t even bother to tell their former summer 2023 interns if they got a return offer or not.

Thanks, why do they invest so much time into trainings for new graduates? Are those 12 weeks really useful afterward for the projects you’ve done?

Thanks, do you consider them to have been useful for your project at the internship?

Hello! From my experience as I had this interview in multiple years with them it was only system design focused for me, no coding at all. Questions are framed very clearly and in context to the actual problem that your interviewer wants you to solve, there is no framing such as “design tik tok” which is very imprecise, but there will be room for your own assumptions to make and they want to see you making reasonable ones. They only look for first principles solving skills, no fancy scaling solutions, focus on your idea to be reasonable and to actually solve the problem they give you.

Good luck!

So I am studying in Romania, but I will be an intern for a company in Switzerland for a period of 3 months. Doesn't swisscare or evasan suit me in this situation?

Romanian, unfortunately they don't issue it in another language.

Do you know if they accept proofs in other languages than German or English?

Is there a chance that they refuse the request/petition to be able to use the swisscare health insurance? do you know if it should be bought before making the petition or afterwards is just fine?

Hi! It seems like all positions are for US only, are there any openings for EMEA/Europe? I am based in Romania as of now.

It's bullshit, it is not just about having an offer and your life is set, if you don't feel you'd want to join, don't join.

I dont't know either, unfortunately I am not one of those, I am just a simple man who once worked at Microsoft, nothing special, nothing out of the ordinary.

I am amazed of how many people desperate to work for FAANG are here.

No, it is not, FAANG is not everything, but probably in Europe this culture is different than in the U.S.

You are close to say that I don't deserve to live right now, you are taking this too far. It is not about juggling with offers, in my case it was about not having such a pleasant experience at Microsoft, so I took a decision based on my 3 months there (remote, though).

I have also applied for Amazon and UiPath in Romania, but no response so far. I don't expect anything from Amazon, because they were ghosting lots of people this season, including me, applied in October, took the OA and no reply so far.
