Where do most competitive programmers end working?
By PathToMaster, history, 5 years ago, In English

Hello CF community. I was asking myself which companies competitive/sport programmers are more attracted to, or if they run their own startups. In my case, I don't know where do I want to work yet, but I know Competitive/Sport programming is going to help me very much in my life.

Thanks for reading! :-)

      I mean, the other comments here don't contribute to the discussion either.

      Do you think that OP's question was about jobs of random cyans? Or that the probably just trying-to-be-funny comment about YouTube is "contributing to the discussion"? Or whatever i_o__o_i's comment is supposed to be?

        Please stop whataboutism. I think question was about every member of Codeforces community regardless of their color, not just orange or red.

        Can you please provide a link for your own YouTube channel? I would be very grateful.

      You know, the first line of my comment does answer the question from this blog.

          I'm a Googler only if you treat Youtube as part of Google xd

          Google is very popular among competitive programmers. Two third of my original icpc team went there, and half of my friends at least had an internship there. But the same question was already asked multiple times in CF and hence my comment.

    Google search results are made from our discussion, so better than reading past old scenarios ,we should discuss presently, and update google searches.

I will prove that a competitive programmer can become a webtoon artist by using this shameless self-promotion: https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/cp-series/list?title_no=365151

CP is a sport, my friend! They end up here working on problems and developing contests for the community. Do you ask where do footballers end working?
