Hello everyone!
I know a lot of companies are interested in competitive programming background profiles, and I wanted to ask if any of you know of any companies currently hiring new grads with this type of background. Thanks for any answer, and I will leave a bit of background of where all of this is coming from in my life.
I am writing here after recieving news from Google and Meta that they will not be able to extend me an offer due to business reasons, even after interning there and doing a good job (Meta), or getting through all of the interview process (Google).
I am recently graduated and now I don't know what to do. I am on the lookout for a job to start learning and growing professionally, but due to the current US economic situation I have struggled to find job openings, even interviews are really tough to get now. Same story in the other countries, and finding sponsors for visas is another issue too.
I have experience in big tech (4 internships at Meta), and a lot of competitive programming background (2 ICPC WF, IOI), and I know this sometimes is a good profile to at least get some interviews, I just don't know where to look now.
Thanks everyone for your help, and I can also guess a lot of you are in a similar struggle, but hope everyone can finf something good where they can develop professionally too :)
