- what kind of stuff should i be prepared for?
- like technical questions, company specific questions
- Mysql
- yo im sure youll wreck it
- but like know the basics of mysql
- like tables
- and keys
- also i got asked some networking questions
- like when you type in a url, what actually happens
- for you to get the page on your laptop
- also some really basic questions like what is a class and a subclass
- they never asked me to code anything in front of them, just describe things
- also they asked me if i was for open-source
- and the correct answer is yes
- when used properly
- cus bny mellon is embracing using open source libraries like apache hadoop, apache kafka
- theres not too much proprietary tech
- but you have to also say that theres a balance between using open source and keeping company secrets secret
- so like ideally things should be completely transparent within the company, but the barrie between company and the outide has to be well-maintained
- but that was a minor question
- brush up on mysql
- also you may want to lrn how hadoop works (hdfs and mapreduce)
- thanks. howd you learn mysql?
- mayeb some R
- too
- you can use this
- http://sqlzoo.net/wiki/Main_Page
- but i think its less important to know the syntax
- than to know if given some data
- how would you set up your mysql tables to make things easy
- you learned hadoop and stuff after you got there right? basically they trained you?
- i just did all the tutoiral stuff in my first few days
- was basically yah go lrn some hadoop
- and i go google how to hadoop
- not much training
- also the hadoop shiz was cu si was a big data intern
- roles can vary
- so hadoop probs only applicable if you wanna big data intern
- How was your internship there?
- i disliked the cubicles
- also your internship experience will be vastly different from mine bc i was in boston
- 2 interns in boston vs 30 or so in nyc
- oshit megusta
- whatd you like?
- the best thing about it was the people i met
- not my immediate group but other people
- i asked this asian dude to be my mentor and he gave me so much lifeadvice
- also met the dude who does all the posters and photoshop for the building and he took me shopping to get professional clothes
- and also is a side personal trainer so he wrote me workout plan
- also we designed my business cards together and he printed me like 500 of them for free
- and also introduced me to his tailor and go tme free tailoring
- but these are very specific experiences that you probably wont have lol
- NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
- but youll have other interns
- i didnt
- which is why i bonded with oldpeople
- i think wouldve liked it much better if id have been in nyc with the other interns
- I want to get free stuff and advice
- they super cool
- i still go back to visit them
- What are you planning for this summer?
- we have drinks in the tailor's office every few weeks
- idk
- a tech startup

- pretty sure
- i've just gone and bombed the interview
- absolutely zero technical questions
- something like describe softdev life cycle, what do you do when a technical problem comes up, the 3 things people would describe you as
- describe something you made better / faster / smarter / cheaper
- Lol
- I bet you did fine
