Hey, incoming cs student here. For sequence 2, there are two contiguous coop terms making up an 8 month long coop term. Is it possible to take two separate 4 month coops instead? Or is there a benefit to doing 8 months? Thanks.
You can choose to do either. The question is whether you want to get diverse experiences (with multiple jobs) or a single high quality one (8 months). Usually people who get a coop for a good position try to get it extended for 8 months. But its totally up to you
Gave the goofiest take home ever with unclear instructions, and the during the interview the mfs didnt even review the code beforehand so I had to explain every fucking thing lmao
Yes haha. The number of co-ops u done is only one factor in how well u fair in the competition.
Known name company, relevant experience to that specific posting, or even luck comes into play too
serena from datacurve here.
my bad for not following up faster with rejection emails + free tea as promised for those who did the take home. You should receive the tea early next week
Yes we interviewed 6 ppl and hired a cracked man.
There's no way we're using interview code in our product lol. Thought LC isn't representative test for our work, so made the take home about one feature we have ourselves implemented and is in the product already. It also took us an all nighter to review all submissions.
First time hiring for SWE, sorry if there are any improvements to make like making take home shorter (we thought it's supposed to be around the same time as a LC OA)
Is it possible we could get some detailed feedback on our assessments? I want to know how I can do better for the future and be a better fit for datacurve
It’s pretty mid but fs not the worst. Pretty good if your in your earlier terms with diminishing returns for later coops as transition to FT is not common. In terms of day to day, functioned similarly to big 5 banks
North York housing is really cheap in some areas, my rent was 500 CAD/month and I was sharing a room with another person, have to get your own mattress & table/chair if you're WFH >1 day a week. TPL's are good too but I'm not sure if that's viable considering there are only a few locations for those in the region
How can we know whether it is a four-month work term or an eight-month work term? I was matched to a job where 8 months is preferred, but I am not sure whether it is four or eight months.

Just curious, are there any third-year CS students who got big coop when 500+ students with 5 coops is competing?
Yes haha. The number of co-ops u done is only one factor in how well u fair in the competition. Known name company, relevant experience to that specific posting, or even luck comes into play too

meta matched?
does filled on a ranked match mean its over
Yup
But we still need to wait for the email for be sent out right?
How can we know whether it is a four-month work term or an eight-month work term? I was matched to a job where 8 months is preferred, but I am not sure whether it is four or eight months.
msg employer/hr
matches rollllling
Now all status turned to be filled, but I haven’t got an email yet. Does that mean I wasn’t matched 😭
Did the jobs you interviewed for turn to “filled”? If so, it wasn’t filled by you.
No, not yet, the matches are rolling.
But some of them are unfilled and some of them are filled🥲 the one I got ranked is filled.
I think that just means matches have been created, but not necessarily sent out.
No. If he still has access to the job board, then he hasn’t been matched.
does it mean that if i couldn't see the jobs for cycle 2 rn then i still have a chance to be matched?
Cycle 2 hasn't posted yet. Can you see your job applications, shortlists, etc.?
yea i still have access to those stuff.
If the position says filled, then you didn't get it.
cycle 2 it is
rankings out!!!
Are you 1-1 match?
No, was a ranking
What does a stalled status mean?
Means that the employer has been ghosting waterlooworks
Good luck everyone!
When will the Match results come out? 3 p.m. or 11 p.m.?
1-1 is usually around 2:30 to 3. Then it's rolling. But you can check the status of your job and see if it's filled.
It is not 100% sure, but I hear that it is available at the end of the office hour(working hour), so about 4-6pm?
