Successful Stories

First of all, because of the reasons of the original family, so the personal will to stay in the United States is strong, and secondly, during the undergraduate period also self-study for a period of time Python, for Financial want to switch to the programming of the white people with a strong feedback, can let me have the motivation to learn new knowledge. Therefore, I officially started my java programming learning path during my Master's period. In February 2023, I started to learn Java, but at that time, the learning was not systematic enough, resulting in very slow progress, and the beginning of the study is really very hard, although I said that there is a little bit of the foundation of Python, but after the switch to Java is also the same as a fresh start. May 2023, at the beginning of the month, I finished the “Algorithms and Java Data Structure Interview” course with great difficulty, and the amount of courses was so large that it was very tiring for me at that time, but the 1V1 with the teacher answered a lot of my doubts. May 2023, this time began to prepare for the process of sea...

When I successfully landed Lululemon's SDE in the U.S. in another way! I have to say that Drillinsight really helped me solve the big problem, allowing me to give up FAANG and find another way to survive! If you are looking for a job in the U.S., your usual way of thinking is to go straight to the big companies, Google, Amazon, etc., and then start the traditional interview process, prepare algorithmic questions, brush up on LeetCode, and then wait for the screening. All are exactly the same process, I feel that this road is too competitive, and very often, the interview process and the final result does not depend entirely on the level of their own ability, but depends on the interviewer's preference, resume matching degree and other factors. Luckily, I chose the “other way” strategy, because I knew clearly that my ability was not suitable for FAANG, so I paid more attention to some companies with great company culture and provide room for growth, and after I learned about the company culture, I found that I liked it so much, and they also had SDE positions, which made me very excited. So I applied for the SDE position,...

Received Meta offer call a few days ago, close to two months got meta offer ashore, really so happy! It feels really great to have found a job, it was worth all the effort!!!! Thanks to drill insight! I've submitted 500+ resumes, 6 interviews, 3 internal promotions, 2 offers, and timeline: 10.1 Meta hr reach out, answered a few questions. 10.8 Received oa 10.10 finish oa 10.14 pass oa 10.24 Two rounds of coding 10.25 One round of bq 11.01 first team match chat 11.04 second team match chat, expressed preference for the group to hr 11.16 offer call After I submitted more than two hundred resumes by myself, most of the interviews I received were from small and medium-sized factories, but my own expectation of myself was that I wanted to go to a large factory. Previously in drill insight reported tcs full stack project, this project from chatting about requirements, to produce technical documents, to development, deployment, online, and finally delivered to the stake holder, the project have been introduced and hands-on. Not only has the introduction of the difference between the front and back office, will also talk to the Execution and allocation of this very detailed...

In fact, at the beginning of my parents are not very supportive of the profession I studied, mainly because they really like, the best can not be argued with me, has been studying environmental engineering, but later realized that the environmental engineering profession in North America is really difficult to move, basically there is no good employment opportunities, so only a temporary code change, because it is really want to stay in the U.S., to keep the status, and my parents have seen that I finally gave up this sewer! The parents also saw me finally give up this sewer, but also very supportive of me. Because they are zero basis to code, at first completely clueless, only in a variety of platforms to find resources, go to see bilibili tutorials above, but really this kind of recording is too much of a test of one's own self-control, and for the above class can only help the basic content, the back of a lot of job search for me is not of any use, and take my current mastery of the three cats kung fu go to what they say! LeetCode brush questions to go to the results of a...

I actually began to study is a major in economics, because the parents of this profession has a very high degree of obsession, and the family also do this line of relatives finally chose this profession, but then the more you learn the back of the feeling of their own knowledge of this profession is not at all interested in the university basically do not listen to this course, resulting in later more and more to keep up with, and so really can not stick to it, on the temporary change of the track, turn data, in fact, when I turned to data, I was thinking for a long time and have a clear goal, I just want to enter the data post in the accenture. I myself is to want to enter the data post of accenture, so I and a lot of change of profession is not the same, I first selected the target and then in the beginning of the study, but because of their own 0 basis, so at the beginning of the Internet to find a variety of resources from online learning online classes from py to sql, etc., but the effect is minimal, only...

I'm not really surprised that I landed the job, it's just that it was a little slower than planned. After all, I have an internship at Amazon, so as long as the details don't go wrong, it's only a matter of time before I land the job. However, because my algorithmic ability relative to my intern experience is a bit of garbage, so still took an algorithmic class before getting meta's offer. About the beginning of July, it, cast a wave of big factory's resume, the back is also able to get a few of the OA, the test questions and I read the face to face experience is not too bad, are some of the classic variations, but to the end of the surprisingly, only meta gave me an interview opportunity, I don't know why. I don't know why, but in the end, only meta gave me an interview. About the middle of the month, I received an email from HR, and she confirmed the follow-up interview time, VO, there is nothing to say, after all, meta is famous for its love of the original question, but I read a large wave of face-to-face experience, coupled with the number...

As a CS major with a strong interest in finance, I've always aspired to get my foot in the door at a top financial firm like Morgan Stanley. Fortunately, the TCS program class I participated in on the Drill Insight platform helped me pass the Morgan Stanley interview. In this project, my core task was to design and build a simulated stock trading system that could receive trading data and make decisions in real time. Specifically, I undertook the development of trading algorithms, real-time data processing, and system performance optimization. In the course of my work, I not only mastered the methodology of building an efficient and stable trading system, but also gained a practical understanding of the financial market and the operation mechanism of stock trading. During the interview process, I encountered a variety of technical questions covering data structure, algorithm design and system architecture. When the interviewer asked me how to design an efficient trading system, I shared my specific experience derived from the project. The interviewer also asked me a deep specialized technical question: how to ensure the stability and real-time performance of the system in a highly concurrent environment. This question reminded me of one of...

If it is not already in Ford work for two months, I can not believe that I really Arts and Sciences to code ashore, to know that before reading these codes with the same as the book of God, the original pure liberal arts majors simply a headache, and even feel that the code to turn this is really very difficult for themselves, I really do the right choice? Did I really make the right choice? I've increased the sunk cost again… As a result, I really became that impossible existence, and it all started from drillinsight. I majored in Sociology at UMich, and after three years of living in the US, I really liked the atmosphere and planned to stay in the US. As a result, when you look for a job and submit a resume, you will find that your specialty is not too restricted. First of all, the policy restriction, non-stem majors only have one year to look for a job and find a company that provides a sponsor, not to mention, secondly, you also have to successfully draw the h1b, which is one in a million how can it be accomplished in one year's time, not...

For the transcoding players, can be ashore in the United States has been very content, I did not expect to also ashore BNY Mellon, all of which verified Drill Insight's professionalism, reliability, so that they from a transcoding one year but only blindly brush the problem, will only be Java, C++ basis of the students, and slowly master more skills, both microservice, or Cloud service, they are skilled in the use of these skills, but also rely on these skills, and successfully won the offer of BNY Mellon. I've been working at BNY Mellon for 6 months, and when I think back now, I only have one feeling, that every decision I made has changed my life trajectory inadvertently. I was originally Columbia University statistics, when the code was hastily changed, but did not even consider the difficulty of code change, only to see the work salary, policy is loose, the results did not expect to meet the most headache in the learning stage, whether in the dark horse b station, YouTube self-study, or GitHub to find the project, have encountered the great problem, feel the writing out, but a close the video, it is back to the white state,...

Get this offer has been more than half a year, this period of time has been busy to add knowledge, coupled with the previous project has been in the closing stage, so there has been no time to talk about their own code one year in the end how to get IBM's offer! Recently, many of my friends who have changed their codes have been crying to me, saying that they can't find a job! So I want to write an article to enhance everyone's confidence! First of all, the background: I am 23NG, land-based U.S. masters, majoring in Applied Mathematics, I was almost three months before graduation before the start of the code change, holding a fluke before the expiration of the OPT in April this year, the successful code change ashore! Let's talk about this year's timeline 👇. Feb - June '23: Started to switch to code (self-taught Java, C++, and started to brush up, the amount of brush up at this stage is about three questions a week!) July - October 23: I knew I didn't have an intern, so I started to look for various projects to do online, both paid and free, in September I...

First of all, let's talk about the background: 24NG, MSCS, GPA 3.8, graduated in May, have 4 internships, one of them is in a tech small factory sde, one of them is a real project at my own expense, and the rest of the two ends are all on-campus projects (toy project). I started looking for a job almost a year beforehand, and it wasn't very smooth at the beginning. Like most of the NGs, I didn't get any news from the 500+ sea casts, except for the internships, and the recruiters couldn't even look at the school's projects, and after realizing the problem, I started to search for all kinds of projects on the internet to do, but I also knew that these were all watery, and slowly started to realize that it takes a real project to make a real job. I started to realize that I need a real project to get an interview. In fact, after the fall recruitment, I enrolled in Drillinsight's TCS project class under the recommendation of a senior! This project class probably did three months, the teacher is very responsible, the lecture is very careful, every day I asked my project to...

A few months ago, I was in Drill insight every day, discussing projects with my classmates, fighting with code and algorithms every day… Every day, I was doing the same thing… At that time, for me, even an offer from a small company, not to mention an offer from a big company, would make me excited… However, at that time, I did receive an offer from Linen, which was undoubtedly a big surprise for me at that time! What impressed me most was the day of the interview… I was really super nervous that day, I'm not a sweaty person, but that day, I don't know how many times I wiped my hands because of sweaty hands… At the beginning of the interview, HR directly threw out a question related to data structure, “Suppose you have an array containing a large amount of data, what you need to do is to quickly find the maximum value and minimum value, what will you do?” The moment I heard the question, I was confused, of course it wasn't a question of the topic, or a question of the atmosphere being too serious. But I tried to keep myself calm, tried to search...
