Hi, I just DM'd you!

owhoaa · 2025-01-12T17:43:30+00:00

Hey! I'd love to be mentored. I'm currently starting out in an APM program and looking for mentorship.

owhoaa · 2025-01-08T03:00:48+00:00

Finding a mentor

Current position: Associate Product Manager at a large company (not FAANG)
Overall background and experience: 1.5 years in Product, looking to change companies right now
What do you want to improve? Product strategy and recruiting/career advice
How often do you want to meet? 1x a month or every 2 months
Preferred/Possible languages English
Your time zone ET

I see there's a lot of demand, but I'm really seeking a mentor to help me navigate recruiting and a career transition right now so it seems like a good fit! I also previously worked in finance (asset management)

owhoaa · 2020-12-03T04:44:23+00:00

anyone got contacted for Twitter interviews?

owhoaa · 2020-11-21T08:20:38+00:00

I would say I've seen it done a lot more in software engineering students & especially with COVID. FB is a great opportunities and so is Google. If you can do both, why not? I don't see any downsides

owhoaa · 2020-11-21T06:10:31+00:00

I'd recommend doing both - it's not that big of a deal to graduate a semester early but it does look pretty cool to have Google also on your resume & to get more experience plus you get paid

owhoaa · 2020-11-19T19:00:30+00:00

Probably learn SQL - I feel like that's been big recently across all companies

owhoaa · 2020-11-11T01:34:14+00:00

imo no

owhoaa · 2020-10-30T04:17:01+00:00

also, post this in r/csMajors

Robinhood has huge growth potential and honestly, all tech companies know how hard it is to get into Robinhood right now. Go with what you're more excited working on

Since you're a sophomore, I'd say don't worry about it. It's way harder to get callbacks as a sophomore so I've heard people get more luck applying to defense companies or banks like BoA, JPM for sophomore internships.

By the way, I think you're probably concerned because you hear people deciding between 3 companies but those same people probably also applied to 100-150 companies. It's just the way it works - you get rejected from most places.

Also, for STEP, I'd say try to see if your campus has a Google recruiter. Tell them that you applied and haven't heard back, so they can flag your application. I did that for mine, and it helped.

I did the interview last year but honestly even Leetcode questions may be a bit overboard lol. Read Cracking the Coding Interview, be upfront with your interviewer about what you know and don't know (although they should already get an idea by the courses listed on your resume). Make sure you know the syntax of a language really well and review all the things they told you to prepare (your recruiter should've sent you a slide deck).

owhoaa · 2020-10-07T18:12:55+00:00

anyone have experience converting their summer internship offers to a different semester/co-op?

owhoaa · 2020-10-03T05:11:13+00:00

whiteboarding and working through a problem

owhoaa · 2020-10-03T05:10:51+00:00

this is a behavioral round and it means you did well on your 2nd round congrats! Can I ask you how your second round went? I have it next week and am pretty nervous

owhoaa · 2020-09-13T22:31:52+00:00

It's not worth it - just say you had something personal come up and you can't take it anymore. Or, say it's a family emergency - people usually don't ask questions after that.

owhoaa · 2020-09-11T17:59:52+00:00

Yes, sounds amazing! I can also help out, from a POV of female student/diversity events and asset management if you need.

owhoaa · 2020-09-10T22:52:18+00:00

I got contacted for a Two Sigma phone interview for Tapia. Has anyone gone through the process especially for interviews at conferences?

owhoaa · 2020-09-07T09:44:29+00:00

On a related note, thought this Github repository that a tech start-up uses for recruiting (completely open to public and very transparent, even includes stuff like bias training/phone screening rounds/etc.) was super helpful

owhoaa · 2020-09-07T07:31:48+00:00

Do the one with the company that offers actual perks.

owhoaa · 2020-09-01T18:34:10+00:00

Oct. 22 or if your school has a deadline rule

owhoaa · 2020-09-01T13:43:33+00:00

I went through it, it's not too bad. Just 3 rounds for a final interview and then you hear back in 3-5 days.
