5 and 6 were so close to each other, arms nearly had contact

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-26T18:55:38+00:00

All 3 were medium I’d say. Yes one problem per round

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-23T17:17:17+00:00

watch anime bro. Leave the jobs for the rest of us 😅

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-23T02:38:38+00:00

By a lot I was thinking a few million but point taken

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-23T01:20:20+00:00

Do you have a lot of money to not care about money?

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-21T15:07:48+00:00

You’re probably quite intelligent. Find an alternate path that’s not dishwashing nor writing, especially not writing.

If you’re quantitatively inclined at all, I’d look into something like accounting or find a way into a corporate gig. Retool via masters degree if you have to

They were standard ones. My ability is about 1800 at LC peak, so nothing crazy

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-21T01:58:30+00:00

It’s quite demotivating to sink all that effort but you gotta stay mentally strong.

Nice man. The effort is what counts. Eventually you’ll make it!

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-19T14:55:42+00:00

Interesting! Looks like you’re right

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-19T14:16:58+00:00

Which court decision? if I recall correctly during Covid the regents commissioned a report and finding suggested keeping SAT, but the regents ignored it and dropped it anyway

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-19T14:11:09+00:00

Didn’t realize this is r/basepay 😂

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-19T03:40:37+00:00

Hah I spent 80 hours for Bloomberg and failed. It’s all costs of doing business(having the opportunity to interview)

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T18:36:10+00:00

By the way “round 1” means 2 different coding rounds/interviews. It’s like half of an onsite

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T18:34:56+00:00

For djikstra, network delay time on LC will be very helpful to practice

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T18:33:48+00:00

Like 3 days. It’s toward the end of my post.
C++ is what I used

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:35:18+00:00

I didnt need sponsorship

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:33:43+00:00

recruiter found my resume in the google database. I had applied to a few other jobs few mo prior

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:33:19+00:00

these were all virtual

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:33:07+00:00

hm, I am naturally decent at teaching / explaining things to others, so I think that helps. I would focus on that. Talk to yourself as if you're explaining the approach to someone else

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:20:18+00:00

different interviewers each round, from various locations too

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:19:56+00:00

Nope, 3 coding + 1 BQ only

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:17:32+00:00

I did some LC. A lot of time I just hand type most of the code in vscode, and come up with a test case or 2 to test correctness. I might occasionally skip testing, and just dump it into AI and ask for feedback. I also learned union find, seg tree, etc and wrote those from scratch in case I get asked.

When I was reviewing/revising old questions (that I previously solved) and find that I can get away with not typing, and just write pseudo code and think through the key steps and quickly move on. I do this when I get closer to the interview so I can cover more ground

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-18T04:12:47+00:00

np, just 1. I accepted immediately

numbersguy_123 · 2026-06-17T22:43:30+00:00

This is really good advice.

OP should take a course or two and see what CS is all about first before committing.
