i have an interview monday with a series a start up. japan was awesome. my back-up job is to be a field co-ordinator for the org i went with if the tech sector is still freezing cold for designers. i'd be paid to go to japan 2x a year. this is if they can pay me a living salary. it'd still be a 50% pay cut from my previous position though.

did virtual onsite with a FAANG this week and the recruiter asked me if i had any competing offers on hand how the hell do people do it, keep up a day job and also interview so hard they have multiple competing offers, concurrently? i don't even mean interview stress or anything, i mean just the logistics of coordinating everyone's time and everything, and being able to block out a ton of time on your calendar so they can find someone to take the interviews or idk maybe this is just a symptom of my own work calendar being a gd mess and our crap meeting culture contributing to why i'm looking to change jobs

wfh makes it easier to juggle those things, which is one of the reasons bosses hate it so much (if you are compelled to be in the office m-f then they can notice you dressing nicely or ducking out early or taking long lunches more easily)

i also wouldn't worry too much about having neat, long blocks of time. usually you can split these virtual onsites across a few days if you really need to, so having an hour here or there should be fine unless there is a critical dependency on the interviewer side who has a particularly limited schedule.

yay: passed on-site interviews, scheduling meetings with teams to see if one is a match boo: down-leveled, with no specifics on the range for the new title. based on levels.fyi, it could range from just fine on the higher end to "that's the increase from the last 3 job change/promotions gone"

The Leck posted:yay: passed on-site interviews, scheduling meetings with teams to see if one is a match 🥳 Is this one of those companies who refuse to consider current comp as a competing offer? If you have time to bash out another quick set of rounds you could try putting something together from other places, otherwise if you're not in a bad spot now then you could push back on comp and worst case just stay put. Even without a competing offer there is probably some wiggle room on equity.

i need a sanity check from other ios devs. for a 90 live coding session i got asked to make an app from scratch that makes a network call, displays the data in a list, the list cells have an increment decrement button and a label that displays the count, at the bottom, there's a discount view that shows applied discount total and a button that doesn't need to do anything but displays the total of your items, discounts can apply to items, or the total order if they meet a min value. is that reasonable? i got the network stiff, ui, and increment decrement done. i feel like that's a god drat sprints worth of work. maybe i should stop applying to senior roles.

I assume they expect you to use and know really well some specific framework, and for the end result to be super ugly and poo poo. Like you can do all that in a single razor template I think if you ignore most best practices?

i was told to code in my regular style and to end with what i do before i clean it up for a pr. i did it in uikit, but mentioning specific framework you could probably do it with swiftui in that time.

you don't actually have to write all the code in those live interviews though, right? that's why they're better than takehomes you write one good core class then just talk about how everything else would work I've gotten two dece figgie jobs this way

looks like they wanted me to finish because i just got the rejection email. also i'm going to straight up stop interviewing with companies that don't provide feedback. if i spent 5 hours on your onsite you can figure out how to write a 2 paragraph email on what can be improved.

Sometimes the honest feedback is that you were fine but they found someone else they liked better. Not much you can do about that.

sometimes now you go into an office to sit on the zoom calls, so it's an onsite offsite onsite

feedback if you get to the final round is usually very frustratng anyway becuase it tends to be stuff like "You could have done the job fine and we like you but there was another candidate who: asked for 20k less was a 93% fit to your 91% factor we can't legally discriminate on but did anyway interviewed on a day when I the hiring manager was in a better mood or some combination of the above. might as well save yourself being annoyed about it

my last couple "nope sorry" had no feedback and I would at least have accepted a simple "we're hiring someone who already has EU citizenship instead of needing a visa" or similar

Is the job situation particularly rough right now, for C/C++ with about a decade of experience but a "legally can't discriminate but we did anyway" issue? I've been thinking about switching for more money and because of some restructuring at work (no job losses outside of middle management though) figured I might as well ask ITT

the company is firmly in the "too big to fail" territory so not worried about it, but there could definitely be job cuts, outsourcing, downsizing, whatever

for real don’t wait til you’re desperate to give yourself options. a few hours every couple months to stay sharp and learn what you could get is a good investment

companies don't give feedback in the off chance that one of the reasons opens them up to litigation applied to one (1) job; rejected without interview from one (1) job

if you give candidates actual feedback 1 in 3 throw a temper tantrum, no matter how politely they ask which is why I stopped giving feedback. any job prob have 6+ people asking for feedback, I’m not putting up with 2 temper tantrums per job req e: that’s for engineer candidates for sales rejections, 2 of 3 throw temper tantrums CarForumPoster fucked around with this message at 02:32 on Dec 3, 2023 |
