propranolol works loving wonders. Had 4 sessions: technical, behavioral, case study, technical. All the technicals were in swift which was really cool, but may have bit me in the rear end since I don't write swift everyday.

First technical was pretty easy, no white boarding just look at some functions/methods/statements interviewer had pre-written and answer output, why it won't compile, etc. I forgot about the mutating keyword on one question.

Behavioral was standard stuff which i answered with STAR.

Case was actually pretty interesting and I thought cool. Provide business pros cons and technical pros cons about some case, then answer a technical problem that could up from said case.

Last interview I was running out of steam and propranolol confidence so it was a bit rougher and a second interviewer came in as white boarding started(each other was 1 on 1) . It was some linked list stuff and not bad in retrospect. I got a solution with some help, and found an optimization with a hint as I was completely done. We didn't have time to implement optimization and that was that.

I will get a decision and hopefully an offer tomorrow. Which is awesome turn around. Nap and then taking a crack at this vimeo code test that looks like entirely too much work. my friend at vimeo in a non-engineering role also informed me it's being re-worked because devs straight up stop the process because it takes too long. I don't feel like doing it but i don't want to make my friend look bad even though the recruiter contacted by coincidence.

beta blockers aren't exactly common street drugs so i'm pretty sure KidDynamite got his propanolol through a doctor's prescription and isn't abusing it at all? plenty of people are prescribed a couple xanax for flight anxiety too...

personally i smoke lots of weed but it has nothing to do with my job

Man, I'm trying, but there's no dispensary nearby. I'm half tempted to ask the guy who lives in the apartment next to me if I can buy off of him.

I don't think he deals. Could I ask for his buyer? Is there a protocol for that? Do I need to bring references?

something just struck me funny after seeing a bunch of people talking about using Adderall to program more at work too. I'm worried about yospos!

Goddang that was an in depth interview, lots of obscure c++ and low level memory/CPU questions that only a complete sperg would know. I, of course, am the aforementioned sperg and expecting that it went well

Just got the follow up, I did really well and judging from Glassdoor and the grade they told me they're hiring for, I'm looking at a minimum +30% pay with 10-15% yearly bonus and sign-on bonus and drastically improved PTO. I've got a final call with their senior director arranged. I've arrived.
