Today we are going to talk about internships.

Yes, we talk about this all the time, but I love about it.

So today we are going to talk about what are the top 10 saw for engineering internships you can get now?

Top internship is really subjective.

You know, some people like, for example, Apple or Google.

Some people like Google over Apple, so you don't really know.

It's kind of subjective, and also there's a lot of things to consider, like salary benefits, prestige.

You know, some people, it's all about that.

And then how much you're learned and then also the team and also the technology that they used.

Some people care about that some people don't.

So yeah, so it's kind of hard to have consulted all these together and come up with a good answer until now.

So there's this guy in Waterloo That's great.

Clinton.

You know, I scraped the whole website, looked at all you want to lose students, and basically what he did is he looked at every single student and her history of internships that he did.

Now Waterloo makes you do six internships.

So basically, he made an assumption that your last internship is better than your before last internship.

So, for example, if their first internship was Google and Gender next internship was apple.

He would deem Apple better than Google.

Now, that's just one person.

So he did that with everyone.

You know.

He did that with every single you Waterloo kid and basically gave a little score to every one of these companies.

So now I'm just gonna use this website, and I'm going to sort it by dizzy Little score before I go into the top town.

Let me just show you what this site is all about.

This I think the site is kind of down now, and I kind of just kept a copy for myself.

So So here's what it looks like.

As you can see, every row is a person.

So if you search Citadel, you know, you see that this guy went to clearbridge associate then to securities density, though, so that means said the deal would be better than all these companies and code connect would be better than citadel.

Oh, that's me.

That's actually me.

I guess that data wasn't very updated.

I clearly say that instead of that is better quarterback by far, anyway, So this is what it looks like.

And then when you actually get all of this, you get this fuel.

I don't know why we can't sort.

I mean, usually you can sort, but I think it's because the person they probably didn't do the party didn't scrape the job script.

So I have, like, a virgin.

So what we're gonna do is we're just gonna copy all that.

And like, as a true data scientist, I'm just gonna use excel.

You know, I was thinking, like, maybe parsing it or something, but screw that.

I'm just gonna use excel because it seems like it's well formatted, so all right, but the name copy Open up, Excel.

And we'll, uh, we'll get cool and then put a filter here, filled there and then sort descending.

So I'm not gonna tell you which company's first.

Yes, I'm gonna blurt out here.

I'm just gonna blur the top 10.

And as you can see, Okay, maybe i'll start from the bottom, you know?

So you guys know spoilers.

So you know, for example, e a is ranked number 24.

You got square number 22 then Bloomberg, 21.

You could see it sorted by their heels.

Score?

Yeah.

And then Okay, I'm gonna blow out the top.

Who?

The top 10 makes a lot of sense.

All right, let's start number 10.

We have Microsoft.

You still working for Microsoft?

So you're still working for Microsoft?

So yeah, uh, like yourself is still pretty good.

Then you know, as not bad, not gonna lie.

My present was a pretty good company is just at for me or for my some of my friends.

We just like to joke around up.

Microsoft is like a company is like a low tier company, but it's not.

Microsoft is a great company.

The only reason we do that is because we have to make fun of one company.

And Microsoft is so big such that if I make fun of them, they wouldn't care.

Because I'm so small.

Thing is great because I'm able to talk about Microsoft.

Okay, so Microsoft is known to have pretty easy interviews.

I have done their interview for some for engineering and for program manager, and I would like to say that they're softer engineering Interview was pretty easy at passing one shot.

So So this offer engineering interview is quite simple.

For me, at least they came to war.

Lou and I had two interviews back to back.

And then after those two interviews, they'll say you get the ownership or not.

So the first question I got was a little bit of a design question like databases or infrastructure.

Basically, what they're saying is that you know, if you send a certain message for certain server and they have to send it back and something that would have if, like those messages get lost, what would you do for fault, tolerance and stuff like that?

So little bit of a design question, and then a second question is super easy link list.

Question.

It's stuff like, Can you find out if the link list has a loop or something like that and that Is there another way you can do it?

I'm not gonna go over details, but basically it's two questions, all right.

Second thing I want to talk about is the salary for me.

I think the salary for me was like $7000 a month, and then you get sick housing, uh, actually housing is kind of a gamble.

Sometimes you might get better housing sometimes not because it just put interns everywhere For me.

I was able to go into like, a hotel.

I think it was like the Hyatt Hotel, and it's pretty good because he got maid service every single day.

So, yes, the benefits were pretty good.

All right, let me double check the Sally real quick.

Microsoft yet.

So Microsoft is $7.2000 per month, and then they give you $1.3000 for housing or you choose their corporate housing.

Obviously, choose the corporate housing because it's a way better.

But yes, 7.2000.

This That's not bad.

That's not bad.

Yeah, I'll show you at the end the list, like this salary list and later on.

But I don't want you to stay through this whole video.

Let's check it out.

All right, Cool onto the next one on the list.

Number nine it is.

Yep, at an interview of help for some engineering and their interview.

I would rate it a bit harder than Microsoft.

You know, I passed in one shot, too, but they had a lot of interviews.

Okay, I think on site had to on site interviews and then to phone interviews later to confirm that I wasn't, you know, just lucky and very standard interview questions.

And then they also look at your projects a little bit.

So I think what I showed them is I showed down a project that you could sink watching YouTube together.

They're pretty impressed by that.

And then a lot of like, normal questions normal, like, algorithm, questions that you get on Nico.

So then the phone screen is also just quoting, you know, you go on court pad, they asked a question, and then you called it.

So I think they're interview process a little bit harder and they don't accept like that many people I thought about a salary.

So Yelp is $7.6000 per month, plus $1.5000 for housing.

If you don't do corporal, that is pretty good.

I think Yelp is Europa's usually hired them like Google and Microsoft because a little bit smaller, so they have to stay competitive by giving you more money.

So yeah, so the salary is pretty damn good.

And and prestige.

Yeah, I think hope is pretty much mid tier like.

Okay, honestly, don't take my word for granted, But I'm just like comparing toe all the next ones that we're gonna see.

But Yelp Yelp is like, Not like super high teer.

But it's also not like super little tear.

It's kind of like with Microsoft, same level as yourself in terms of prestige in terms of how much you're gonna get next company is interests.

To be honest, I don't know why this isn't higher.

It might be just variants, to be honest, because there aren't that many people that got into Pinterest because the total number of students that got there are, like, at least scrape.

That was only seven.

I do think that, uh, the princess is pretty high up there because I heard from a lot of people Pinterest is like one of the smartest companies.

Like every time you go to interest, people say like, Well, I've worked with smart people, so yeah, I think we just should be a little bit higher up.

Might be just variants.

Like I said, let's check Pinterest.

So how hard is the interview?

I don't know.

I actually don't have because I've never interviewed with Princess, so I wouldn't know.

So I can tell you that, OK?

And then how good the salary is.

All right.

You ready?

The salary is $9000 a month and then $3000 for housing.

So that makes it like $12,000 a month in that crazy.

So yes.

Oh, definitely.

Because of salary, people do want to work at Pinterest, right?

Next company I have here infusion.

I should not for motor with this company, let me google it real quick.

Or maybe it is a really good company.

I don't know, but I I don't have I mean, if you guys know, please comment below if you know infusion and what their reputation is.

But I don't quite know because there's a lot of there's a lot of other good companies that didn't make the list.

I'll give you some spoilers.

Amazon did not make the top 10.

Lincoln did not make the top 10 square dynamic the top 10 but they're all super good, cos it's possible that a lot of smart people they got into these companies and then they just got bored so they want to work for start ups.

And then it will decrease your yellow.

That just how it works, but yeah.

Alright.

Company number six.

Who?

Speaking of Amazon, I wonder if you can guess which one.

This is so company number six it is a nine dot com.

So in case you guys don't know what a nine dot com is a subsidiary of Amazon 89 I think it's more like research focus, part of more data driven part.

So I think they do like a lot of this search functionality of Amazon and all the hard stuff, the hard problems.

So I had an interview of a nine, actually, twice, actually.

And I got rejected twice.

So the first time, Um, yeah, I'm not gonna lie.

I think it was pretty hard.

Um, I don't remember what the question was, but I think it was related dynamic programming, and I think it took me some time to write it.

And then they also have, like, a design question.

I think it's like something related to like either horizontally scaling or very please scaling.

I think there's like, a distributed question, but basically I didn't do so well.

And in the second time I've got the same interviewer and I think it did well because it was the same question.

But they still didn't take me.

So I think it's because I was being a dick.

I was like, Yeah, I was there before Yeah, whatever.

You know, I think I think they just don't like me.

So So how good is this salary?

Let me check.

Oh, but then again, I wouldn't know because I didn't get the job.

So But let's look at Amazon.

So Amazon give you $7.6000 a month and $2.5000 so that's pretty average.

So I guess his average salary I don't think it would be much different from Amazon.

So I think that's that's a good estimate of what a nine interns would get.

7.6000.

Okay, and then there's the Prestige.

It's kind of similar to life.

It's like it's like above you open Microsoft definitely, definitely Lope interest.

So I think that's a priest each level, especially Waterloo, like it's pretty good.

But it's not like Whoa oh, number five Google Classic Google.

I mean, everyone loves working at Google a lot of, like, really smart people can get to Google early on, but they also like to come back to Google at the end because the company is so big, you could choose which team to go in.

Some people like the word for its very specific team at Google.

Some people, sometimes if you're not, like super great at programming or you're not like a prodigy.

But you could still get to go because they're so big such that they accept a lot of interns.

So prestige level, I would say pretty high.

You know, uh, but nowadays it's getting more, more easy to get into Google.

And so I think that's what their values decreasing in terms of like Waterloo internships.

So the interview varies a lot, so it really depends on your interviewer Is I personally never gone to Google?

Um, I did a few interviews.

I choked.

Not a lot of like dynamic programming questions or anything.

Some of them could be simple.

I heard some of them could be hard.

It really depends.

So a lot of parents bear now the salary.

It's pretty shit, to be honest, I think the reason they do that's because Everyone loves Google, so they pay you $6.6000 per month and then maybe $3 dollars for housing per month.
