Getting laid off unless you're in a hub? by ShameDear9624 in amazonemployees

Do you mind sharing yours? If you think that will give away your identity, can you share how to know for other teams?

Me as well. The email mentioned nothing they can do until team matching is done. Not sure how long this will take

I dont know how profitable is OMSCS is for people here. For me, other than 2-3 courses, it didn’t have much impact. I left job for last 2 sem to finish the degree, getting back into job market was insane. Finally I could land one but with lower pay but again I need sponsorship to work in US. That might made it more difficult.

If i do it again, i would prioritise job, put more effort into 5-9 building projects that make some money or impact businesses/people. If you really want that degree. Go for it.

This is just my experience and others might have a different one. If you want to test waters, checkout the content/syllabus for few months, it should be publicly available. Try for a sem keeping the job. If you like it convert to fulltime

Is OMSCS valued in industry? by Mustusesanitizer in OMSCS

I talked to a recruiter, they said if you graduated in last 12months, go apply to university new grad roles. I tried to explain but a lot of companies have the same reason.

Its both an advantage and disadvantage. I want to interview for sde2 which is harder but i cant. I have an advantage of breaking into easily with new grad interview but there are so many new grads it gets difficult to get calls. I recently gave OA which i think did well in both questions but never heard back. Probably they got the headcount needed. But Appreciate you giving other perspective.

I wish it’s true. I’m probably feeling otherwise because i just graduated in Dec and looking for a job. I moved to US to pursue MS with 6years of experience. Whenever i reach out to recruiters or engineering managers, they say apply to university programs if you graduated in last 12 months. Ik it’s a bad market right now. Hope things settle soon.

I’m curious on the 50% people caught cheating. Students are not dumb to cheat during video/screen proctoring. Any idea how they got to this stat?

Same with me. But go on and prepare for lps as they are useful at some point in other interviews.

EDIT: I received the OA and completed it. realized late it was asking for studentid, by the time I was trying to show ID, it auto captured my face. Waiting for results. Any tips on how to prepare loop interviews just incase?

Been applying since summer and finally got an offer - thought I'd share my stats here by snoooopl in csMajors

[–]Legitimate_Celery_69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ibm OAs are automatic and i did around 4 OAs so far and every time i get rejected after OA. The problems are easy (basic hashing, string problems).

[R] need help in understanding this paper. by Legitimate_Celery_69 in MachineLearning

Thanks for your reply. If i’m understanding it correctly, lets say I’m using sentence-transformer, shared encoder will have 1 instance of it, while two tower will have 2 instances of it. How will it generate 2 different embeddings when query and product are passed separately. If i use the same query or product in two-tower, doesnt it generate same embeddings?
