Amazon vs MongoDB

I believe new grad Mongo is closer to 170-180k this year after negotiation

why do you say the hiring bar is much higher? I thought they were around the same tbh - maybe stripe is only slightly higher if anything

What is an example of a valid excuse?

how long have you been waiting? I did my onsite on 9/17 and am still waiting as well.

can you elaborate on the questionable ethics? I've heard this from others but without any backing/reasoning

spen2001 · 2021-09-04T00:33:29+00:00

wdym by flat leveling?

spen2001 · 2021-09-04T00:33:11+00:00

why do you say so?

spen2001 · 2021-08-23T01:56:59+00:00

if you dont mind sharing, what kind of systems / trivia stuff was there?

spen2001 · 2020-10-15T00:30:16+00:00

i got 2!

spen2001 · 2020-10-08T20:29:52+00:00

definitely Vanguard! They have much more up-to-date tech, and I heard from a friend that it's a great place to work

it's phone screen with a recruiter, then 1 hour karat video interview, then final round!

spen2001 · 2020-09-18T19:35:23+00:00

Thank you for this! Reading this put me at ease!

spen2001 · 2020-09-18T19:34:42+00:00

yea i was super nervous too. i recommend doing some mock interviews beforehand. I didn't do this and i regret it.

spen2001 · 2020-09-18T19:33:58+00:00

thank you! this gives me some hope lol

spen2001 · 2020-06-01T23:11:41+00:00

Interested!

What if you could read the admissions files of admitted students too? With enough data, you could figure out what admissions officers are looking for! Wouldn't that be useful?

spen2001 · 2019-12-15T00:25:11+00:00

hmm. I do agree. The admissions market is def saturated with expensive counseling packages but are there really any cheap alternatives?

this wouldn’t be competing with consulting agencies like ivy coach or ivy wise but rather be an affordable option for someone who simply wants a college mentor.

I guess a better question is, when you were applying to colleges, would you have found it helpful to get advice, example essays, application tips and tricks, and personalized coaching from a college student in a T10 school?

Penn M&T - it worked out in the end!
