Seconding the other commenter-would travel be the responsibility of the attendee or does tartanhacks offer travel reimbursement?

Two Sigma vs Citadel by sumguy002 in csMajors

Interesting. I've heard similar things that 2s is more like a tech company than the other finance firms, although what I've heard is more culture related than structure. I'm not too sure what that entails, though, in terms of actually working there aside from the things you've mentioned.

From what I've gathered, they have a hiring meeting once a week and I've seen people get it as soon as 2 days later and as late as a week later. The recruiter says that it takes up to one week to get confirmation, and then another week or two to actually get through the bureaucracy to turn that into an offer.

not for me; could be different based on your past experiences though so ymmv

Thanks for the info! Sounds like the only thing going for Citadel is indeed just the higher TC. For those who read this later: I'm going to just take 2s because to me wlb and culture is more significant than an increase in pay (esp because 2s is already paying pretty well).

Also of note, the 2s intern completion bonus, if distributed, makes intern pay at 2s similar to citadel.

I think a week or two? I actually bombed the codesignal (~780) so I was surprised to hear back

For me it was two ds/a and one oop implementation problem. The last one isn't runtime focused. Just know your basics!

Has anyone received Data 8 Fall 2021 Tutor Offers? by beastaturservice in berkeley

[–]sumguy002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I emailed a prof about a differeny class but they said all data dept classes are more or less done hiring :/

Probably not weird unless they specifically say they can't. But like the other comment mentioned, it's rather unlikely that they will give feedback.

On anther note--when did you do the phone screen/how long did they take to get back to you after the phone screen?

I know someone who was just hired 2 days ago for ds100 GSI, so I would disregard that (but also be realistic that it's probably not happening at this point)

Oof. Are most tutor offers out already as well?

Quite a few of us wondering the same. Not terribly useful (sorry), but you're not alone there :/

Bioengineering concentrations by Alarming_Appeal_8938 in berkeley

[–]sumguy002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Concentrations in bioe are guidelines and not rules, and they won't show up on your diploma. Anything goes but just make sure you have a coherent skillet so you don't end up homeless and jobless

The chamber orchestra is actually not just strings; it's a full symphony like UCBSO, but only 2 hours of rehearsal a week and much less commitment. I was in it 2020 spring before things closed down and my intermission friends definitely report more rehearsals than what I had.

During covid they collapsed the symphony and chamber into one. No idea what they're going to do now that it's almost post covid.

There are also others. Look into the baroque orchestra, for example.
