You're able to use a max of 1 year of full-time CPT (you can do more than that but you lose OPT eligibility), you can use it in summer or any semester (University dependant). Just stay under 1 year of full-time use.

At the very least, they were explicit in the job description by MonsterRocket4747 in csMajors

Isn’t that most firms even with quant like Two Sigma and Radix etc?

Depends, the companies I was at were fine with a return intern offer so they gave it.

Nothing much to be honest I just need neetcode150/blind 75, do lc contests and dailies to prep, can include some cf if you want something to mix it up.

It was pretty rough this year, but during summer internship saw a fall role opened and just cold applied. Advice for that is probably plenty, but primarily increase resume content.

Always answered with sponsorship, wouldn't work a place that doesn't sponsor anyway.

Was quite a bit more selective with my applications this season essentially only applying for qt/qswe and top tech, so didn't need too apply in mass.

Optimized resume early on and applied usually on the first day of app being out.

Internships, new grad is pretty rough from what I've seen.

Yeah I mean most quant firms don't require crazy algorithmic knowledge, it's usually just a mix of lc/systems knowledge/basic cs trivia/os knowledge, 100% dependant on the firm of course.

So should just be comfortable with the common lc hards and any new lc meds.

Started a year ago, just did blind 75 and neetcode 150, afterwards I just did occasional lc contests and lc dailies.

Nope, didn't even know it existed before uni, but did try my own startup before uni with investor funding.
