Okay, no problem.

Any tips you would like to share? What helped you brag the offer?

Good projects. For Amazon/Microsoft, CP is not necessary.
And luck :sweat_smile:

Okay :slight_smile:

I have heard from many channels and people placed at Amazon that, simple focusing on standard DSA and perfectioning it can get you placed at Amazon. Also just Gfg and leetcode can do that… Is this correct?

@admin, what do you mean by “appeal phase for the contests is long over” ?
Are we supposed to check our email everyday that if we failed a MOSS test or not?
Atleast allow the people who have not plagiarised, but recieved penalty due to alternate account submissions, to appeal now.

I am not active on GFG or leetcode. So I don’t know. But if you are into CP, I don’t think you need GFG/leetcode for Amazon /Microsoft. The questions are easy for a 3/4 star coder(Back then my interview lasted for 1 hour).

Will you please mention what are those qualities and on what basis Amazon gave you offer or it is just on campus opportunity. There are many people on Codechef who just wanted to increase their rating for a referral and they are doing anything even cheating. I am not saying all of them but in some proportion. These are the only people who is ruining this platform. If you mention those qualities people will focus those qualities. Then this platform will have students only ones who really love competitive programming.

Sorry for bad English.

Do you think on-campus is easy?

FYI getting a referral does not mean you will get a call. Improve you resume by doing good projects, open source contribution, GSOC.

I am good with Big data analytics.

I had sent a mail reporting a few cases of plagiarism 2 weeks back. But the mail has not been seen yet, I guess. Those codes had just the different variable names but still went undetected by the MOSS.
@admin

CodeChef does not allow to keep alternate accounts right?

In my opinion, you should continue with your profile. You are correct in pointing out that your profile shows your improvement over the months. Also, hardly any recruiter checks candidate’s codechef or codeforces profile. They have their own parameters for judging you.

In on campus - recruiters come to you.
In off campus - we have to search where the recruiters are!

There is a difference…

In on campus you are competing with as many as 400 students.
In off campus you are competing with 4000+ students.

I never said it is easy…

Suggestion from my side: CHEFWED Please check plagiarism for this question minutely.
To support my suggestion : Just search CHEFWED solution you will see the solution is posted while the competition was going on.
These guys who are posting solution while competition is going on. They just spoil the long challenge.
Thanks

@admin , Users having multiple account also is plagiarism? If we write the code by ourselves and submit it in multiple accounts ,is this a case of plagiarism?

Bro, you submitted so multiple solutions at the same time. Did you use some python script to do so? If yes, can you please share.
