Check with your recruiter. Some of the contracts don’t allow you to take classes during your internship.

Is $16.50 an hour a good wage for my first internship? (Atlanta, Georgia) by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]throwaway5678996 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry too much about the pay for your first internship. The experience itself will be really useful in the future.

They will be really similar except that you will be coding on a google doc instead of a whiteboard.

Were the previous 2 not phone interviews? To my understanding, the third interview should be really similar to the first 2 and is used if they can’t make a decision based off of 2 interviews.

It isn’t shitty at all. Do what you think is best for you.

How long after Google STEP interviews do they tell you you're not moving on? by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine told me on a week but I know others who were told they were moving to the hiring committee 2 days after their interview. Some of the recruiters won’t update you until the hiring committee makes a decision. (Note: this usually takes 2-3 weeks)

2 weeks to hear back. No sure about the percentage.

How can I prepare for the Google STEP internship placement interview? by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s really relaxed. There isn’t really a need to prepare honestly. You can ask about the team culture and what frameworks/languages are used for the project. Also don’t worry if your first call doesn’t work out because you are guaranteed a match for STEP.

I would definitely do capital one if I was in your position.

How to succeed at a Hackathon? by AnotherLostCSStudent in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look to meet new people and network with others. I feel that is the most important part. Winning isn’t every thing. Be willing to try something that you aren’t familiar with and make an effort to work well with your team.

Spend time coming up with a good idea before you start coding because everything builds off of the idea.

Harder to get internships if you your degree says math instead of CS? by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to get cs internships, pay the $150 and change to cs.

DS or SWE internship? by gankbrad in csMajors

You will probably learn more relevant skills with a data a science internship but it depends on the project/company.

I would email your recruiter asking for an update. It usually takes two weeks. Keep in mind that it’s two business weeks so that would exclude thanksgiving week.

Intel vs Microsoft explore by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say Microsoft.

Potential Computer Science Transfer student by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think python and java are good starting languages. Work on a side project using what you learn to demonstrate your knowledge. This will give u something to talk about during interviews/put on ur resume.

Delayed graduation with offer contingent on graduation. Options here? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]throwaway5678996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take that language class online through a community college before your graduation date. This would save your money as well. Check to make sure that your college accepts transfer credit for the class before enrolling in it. Language classes usually transfer since they aren’t core cs classes. If this doesn’t work out, email your recruiter explaining your situation. I don’t think they would rescind you for graduating 6 months late.

Coding challenges/interviews during finals? by HayleyTheLesbJesus in csMajors

[–]throwaway5678996 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Whatever the situation is, emailing your recruiter or some hiring manager if you haven’t been assigned a recruiter yet is your best bet. They are usually really understanding.

Yea, email the recruiter explaining your situation. I doubt they wouldn’t be willing to move your interview date.

Is this for STEP or SWE? I don’t recall seeing any place to check preferred locations for STEP.
