don’t confuse smart with experienced interviews do not currently optimize for hiring experienced people but rather people willing to grind leetcode

the result of leetcode interviews… hiring the wrong type of “smart” engineers

by b20000 4y ago
if he got the degree he is prepared enough. that is how it should be. yet, people are grinding leetcode to get through the hiring process.

a course on negotiation and sales

people have a long time ago, it’s called a university degree also in the US employment is at will. not happy? fire the person.

in a market you have buyers and sellers. you describe only the buy side with the sell side missing. right now there are only public bids and no asks.
548.
by b20000 4y ago
if that is true then why does everyone need to do bullshit coding interviews instead of being hired for their projects and experience, degrees and track record?
549.
by b20000 4y ago
interesting but the main issue is that most engineering people undervalue skills and don’t negotiate. they don’t know the true value of their skills. so the question is how this order book and market can help with price discovery such that

leetcode style interviews will disappear. FAANGs will realize they hired a bunch of drones who endlessly grinded meaningless coding excersises to get hired but have no ability to build good quality software that works well, delivers the nec

California is a beautiful place and I love living there. My experience as an immigrant has highlighted a number of problems though that nobody talks about. It is an extremely expensive place to have a normal quality lifestyle. People endle

yep.

i have come to the conclusion over the past 10 years that it is now all about buying ads. seo doesn’t seem to work anymore and on social media nothing gets reach organically. i am wondering how other people are dealing with this. i cannot a

yeah ok, no interest in a language with a GC. i’ll stick to c++. are they generating fpga code from ocaml?
555.
by b20000 4y ago
i’m curious how they get the low latency performance they need when using a language like ocaml.

by b20000 4y ago
This is a strong signal of how the leetcode hiring process gives rise to a bad and inefficient work environment staffed with the wrong type of engineers, resulting in a highly experienced engineer to simply walk away.

give them the cash
558.
by b20000 4y ago
It's 2022, and we're still not getting paid. For any engineer you can find an executive in marketing or sales who is paid better.

where did you move to and how did you make the choice?

that is why the smarter solution is to use your brain and cultivate good diplomatic relationships
562.
by b20000 4y ago
that might be true. i don’t know. however the question is what the executives might decide to do or what the expectations of shareholders are. i bet someone will have the idea to double or triple cost of parts at retail because chips are no

by b20000 4y ago
so how are we going to make and sell ARM cpus for under $10 retail a piece at a few K qty? digikey, mouser, arrow will still want ridiculous markups and there is a cartel that controls pricing. cost of labour is much higher in the US than a

so why do you need this to be distributed and why can you not use a monolithic server application, perhaps with background threads?
565.
by b20000 4y ago
I don't need another process. I can use a thread. If the teams you are talking about never heard of threads and only know about microservices, then there is something seriously wrong with their CS education. Maybe they all were hired v

by b20000 4y ago
yeah, so what about locking? it must be a nightmare to make sure that the components all work together as intended...
567.
by b20000 4y ago
why does everything have to be microservice oriented and what's wrong with a simple monlithic application that runs the whole thing? also, when are those ice cream machines going to get fixed?

It would have been interesting to see a breakdown of the architecture of Dune II including key datastructures and algorithms, but no.

if you graduate a CS program in europe at a university, or at an ivy league university in the US, the chances of you not knowing how to write software are extremely small. employment is at will here in the US, so you can be fired at any tim

" if a candidate went through a tech interview once, and presented their score to multiple companies they apply to?" that is why computer science degrees and universities exist.
