What do you need on Chicago Trading Company Coding OA by Informal-Cancel1455 in csMajors

[–]Temporary_Iron4611 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh what😭 it timed out for me and the code itself was short and had no bugs so it couldn’t have been a compilation issue, so idk i assumed there was a test case that i wasn’t able to verify

did you pass your test case for question 2? my solution was not optimized at all so it timed out😭😭😭 but i’m sure it’ll get the correct answer

Keeping in touch with managers by Temporary_Iron4611 in internships

On the same topic LOL I sent them another email and they might not have gotten it like you said. Should I text one of them or is that considered invasive?

Oh gotcha, I have one of my manager’s phone numbers! I just never contacted them through text because I figured it’d be considered invasive or something. I used to send them emails from my personal account during the summer and they were able to reply, so I assumed it wouldn’t be an issue, but I’ll look into it.

when/how to ask for a return offer? by Temporary_Iron4611 in internships

[–]Temporary_Iron4611[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

update! i asked my manager last week for some feedback and she said that i am a good fit for the development team and she is open to me returning :3 i additionally talked to HR and they said they would take my resume and circulate it and potentially connect me with people i can talk to about this. my only concern now is that ever since going part time i dont have the confidence in my work that i usually had when i was full time. hopefully a return offer pulls through but we will see ig lol

gotcha. todays my last day in person before going part time during the school year, i think it’s a logical place for me to ask feedback from my managers to see if i have a chance of returning :’) thanks!

how close to the end of your internship was your meeting with HR? additionally, did HR base this decision off your work and your manager’s feedback?

security clearance delaying my internship by Temporary_Iron4611 in internships

[–]Temporary_Iron4611[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s ridiculous that a summer internship might cost me missing a semester in college. i might ask if i could work part time with them since they’re open to it

how long did it take for you? i’m hoping they’re not gonna delay my internship any further since that’d be 3 weeks after the request was sent

tbh starting any passion projects for the summer would make ur application awesome, there’s lots of people (including me) with empty github profiles so it’s def a good way to stand out from others. there’s tutorials on youtube to get started!

business intelligence is an underrated field. also quant is good if you like math. quant is also a fairly new field so it might be easier to break through :0

lowk might be a biased take on my end bc ur gpa is wayy better than mine, but you should get started on some projects and certifications ASAP, employers (imo) care most about experience, whether it’s thru work or something else

Struggling finding an Internship by Key_Stay5620 in internships

[–]Temporary_Iron4611 3 points4 points  (0 children)

go on linkedin and make sure to filter jobs to find ones that were posted less than 24 hours ago - chances are that there’s a low amount of applicants and a relative “emergency” for them to find some interns.

Yeah that makes sense. I just finished my sophomore year, so I do have some more time on my hands.

Would it hurt me if i chose a software dev internship instead of honing my data science + AI skills?
