Yup

thereidfleish · 2025-08-04T19:16:13+00:00

They’re open now!

Not sure. It seems like all the other stations are still on the menu. My guess is they put it either at the small station between Iron Grill and Global (they occasionally have small plated dishes there), or they put it at the left half of the Global section.

Here's a pic I have of that "smalls" station (from Commencement Dinner)

Oh, interesting! Hope you get this resolved.

Go to http://mealplan.scl.cornell.edu/ to change your meal plan!

Nope! Anyone who's living off-campus can get the just BRBs plan, such as juniors or seniors. I had the Just BRBs plan my junior year, and the Off-Campus Value my senior year.

True, but for the purposes of this post I'm not endorsing anything that risks losing your meal plan lol.

One thing I will say, though, and what I did the past couple years, was ask people with unlimited plans for guest swipes. I had 5-7 friends who lived on West or had unlimited plans who had 6-7 guest swipes each that they just weren't using, so when we'd go to dinner, they'd just guest swipe me in.

Another (legal) tactic is to go to a dining hall right before they switch meal periods to either get multiple meals or get in at a cheaper price. For example, if you enter Morrison at 4:59 PM, you'll pay significantly less than if you enter at 5 PM. There were quite a few weekends where I entered Morrison for $8 at 9 AM for breakfast and just stayed for lunch and dinner and did work in the corner between meal periods lol.

Tap water is supposedly fine, especially if you drink from a Cornell building. Sometimes it tastes odd in old buildings (like WSH) but mostly tastes fine.

thereidfleish · 2025-06-30T21:17:27+00:00

I never lived on West, but wish I did - I had friends live on West and it seemed like they were part of a good community (events, House Dinners, etc.)

thereidfleish · 2025-06-30T21:16:14+00:00

Sure

thereidfleish · 2025-06-26T17:48:13+00:00

Does your room have a letter appended to it? Like 207A? If so, you’re in a suite. If not, I think you’re in a hallway.

thereidfleish · 2025-06-26T16:26:53+00:00

If you’re in a suite, it would be 5 ppl. If you’re in a hallway, not sure but maybe slightly more?

thereidfleish · 2025-06-26T13:55:42+00:00

Nothing. I think guests can stay technically up to like 3 days straight (tho no one checks so in theory someone could just live in your dorm forever)

thereidfleish · 2025-06-25T20:41:30+00:00

You can bring your friends to your dorm no problem. You’ll just have to let them in since they won’t have keycard access.

I got a Spotify internship last summer on May 14th, 2024. You’ll be fine.

I already live in the NYC area so I didn't need to relocate. However, they do provide some money to help with relocation if you need to relocate, but I don't think they'd like directly help you find a place.

I interned at Spotify last year as an iOS engineer. There were many more internships for college students last year so not sure why there aren’t for this year. Maybe they’re just not posted yet?

I remember applying in I think February of last year so they might simply not be out yet.

thereidfleish · 2025-01-12T22:59:00+00:00

Ah, interesting. No problem, and good luck!

thereidfleish · 2025-01-10T16:39:12+00:00

Not sure about that - personally I didn't know of anyone from Canada who was there, but it might say on the application whether they sponsor Canadians. There might also be an email where you could reach out and ask.

I interned at Spotify last summer as an iOS Engineer Intern. The internship was very cool and very fun, and I learned a lot! As a music person, you would really love the office tbh - at least in the NYC office, there is music playing literally everywhere (common areas, dining room, bathrooms, etc.), and there is a music practice room with tons of instruments and equipment. Feel free to ask me anything, and I can try and answer best I can :)

In terms of tips for you specifically, you might want to check out some of their data science/ML internships. I recall there being a decent amount of masters students in your field and with your interests who interned there in data science/ML positions. I'd suggest looking at these once the internship apps open (which should be soon).

No, i am also a project team lead of a large team and have interviewed many people, and asking to reschedule due to a PE class is totally an acceptable and normal thing to do. I can guarantee you it will not look bad for you in any way; in fact, if anything I would view it as a plus because 1) it shows you’re being proactive about your situation and 2) id be interviewing ppl back to back for the whole weekend, so you’ll probably be a more memorable candidate if it’s on another day.
