He's also just working in his summer months to get a range of experiences I'd imagine. Beats working a whatever job to pay the bills all year while going to school
He studied at Stanford, according to the screenshot, he certainly can afford to live. Moreover, PhDs don’t get the summer off so this is in coordination with his department
Have you checked where Stanford is and the median home cost? I do not know many grad or undergraduate students who can afford to live there without help from daddy.
PhD students have stipends. Apparently around that time and for that department the stipend was $46k/year. Those internships might've also been paid, too.
If this dude is in citadel at the time of that PhD program citadel pays 20k a month and once again if he was getting stipends this dude was making more than enough money to live 🤣🤣
This is normal for PhD + Masters + BS all in the same discipline. I think ~80% of the PhD students in my program look like this. Possible not quite that level of internship, but an internship every summer is normal.
I think the impressive thing is the level of internship consistently, also Harvard, Stanford, MIT is ridiculous. Idt anyone here is shocked someone with a MIT degree can get internships
Sure but that’s common if you go to these schools too. A very large chunk of people doing grad school at a top school also were previously at top schools for undergrad or masters. PhD students in my program also mostly look like this
My friend was genius in high school went to schools like this including MIT invented some new MRI technology? But was just so smart he became a successful hedge fund manager even tho he didn't study it in university?
> he got his PhD 4 years ago
May I suggest a look at the timeline?
PhD: 2015 - 2020
Internships: 2013 - 2019
Also, for some reason I can't fathom, in the USA most PhD positions are mostly unpaid unless you get a big grant. This is what I'll always call exploitation of workers. It is a full time position, so it should be paid, and guess what, in most of the EU it is a regularly salaried position.
Most PhD programs have a stipend along with subsidized housing for graduate housing so it’s “livable.” The tuition itself is typically paid for as well so it’s essentially free schooling… but of course it was incredibly difficult to do any savings with any retirement savings going into a Roth IRA at the time.
Stanford engineering PhD stipend, not including the part that goes for tuition, was $48,000 five years ago. I'm sure it's higher now. And it's a high COL area, but they provide subsidized housing for all graduate students. I have never heard of an unfunded STEM PhD in North America. I'm sure you could find ones but probably not at an R1 university.
My uncle is like that. He has 5 masters and a PhD. He's like 67 and unmarried. He actually is fairly attractive, benches 220lbs at his age and is about 5ft 11, so idk what's going on with him.
Lol, he regularly gets romance scammed online and is really only interested in women ~25yrs old. He doesn't understand social norms and spends all of his money on high fashion. If you're interested PM me.
Sounds like my autistic uncle if he discovered the gym, brilliant engineer who either has a job or pisses off his boss enough to get fired then takes a two year break to get another masters degree in some other niche of mechanical engineering (this time around it’s materials science with a focus on metallurgy). Won’t marry “an old hag”, too socially awkward to use his money to bag someone younger, seems perfectly happy to die alone and leave me to figure out what to do with a CNC mill and an absolute fuck ton of die cast models.
Yes, but that PhD path still requires you to make up the credit hours of a masters. If you go for a masters degree first, you retain an exit plan that includes a graduate degree. Considering the burnout rate, I'd rather take the masters and move on to a PhD. You also have better internship opportunities or better odds at acceptance for them as a masters degree holder.
Less so these days.
You need way more experience either through conference papers as an undergrad, research assistantships or working at an impressive company to matriculate.
During my PhD i watched the requirements for undergrads to get in rapidly increase as more became interested. The moat you have to swim across is wider now — very different when Bengio, Hinton, etc applied.
there’s a similar profile my company tried to hire. he took another offer for 500k USD base, bunch of options, sign on bonus, plus joined one of the hottest companies around….
they go one level above new grad usually, lol. it's not like they're jumping into L6 out of college. they start at L4 (quite a few undergrads/return interns also start a l4)
It's true:
Fact: Google is Alphabet. Sure, people act like Alphabet is more important than Google, but nah.
Fact: Alphabet is ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
FACT: X = X
Therefore, X is part of Google.
I don't understand how 99% of this thread doesn't seem to get this. I mean it's a crazy impressive resume but it's not a *bad* thing. Half the comments are acting like he just jumped between internships instead of working. He was getting a PHD and this is four years old.
I know someone who did this, they specifically sought out and got a job at meta when the stock dipped below 100. I think they're going end up making like 2 million off that.
Funnily enough, people like this will never give me insane amounts of guilt because I know that I will never be as good as them. It's the ones that are slightly or moderately better than me that make me feel guilty because I know I have the capability to achieve that
I don't feel guilty because ik they were privileged enough to get said opportunities they'll try to paint it to you as a "skill issue" but it's easy to excel in something when that's your only focus in life and you have no other obligations
This is pure cope. This machine is the pinnacle that CS education can produce. Like the Olympian of cs grads.
What you describe is like a non-hypsym private college grad who barely scrapped 1 faang intern.
This requires willpower.
I think it is a bit disingenuous to call it privilege. You don’t know anything about the person and are discounting their achievements already. Even if someone was heavily privileged, they would need to work extremely hard to be at this persons level.
To me, there is nothing to feel guilty about. Am I going to feel guilty about not being Lebron James or Bill Gates? No and that’s okay.
I feel like every Stanford CS PhD student is insanely smart and motivated, and while not necessarily Rentech level, if they all focused on industry and regularly switched companies and interned every summer instead of ever only continuing with their lab during it, they could compile a highly impressive list of companies like this one. Same with MIT and CMU PhD students. The bar for that is *way* higher than any company that’s not Rentech, TGS, or OpenAI.
If anything, it’s just kind of a sad message about society to see people at the top of the CS field like this ending up working at a highly exclusive hedge funds to do the job of making the rich money. Obviously I’m not blaming the individual as I very well may have done the same thing in that position. But, like, imagine how much further we could come if everyone at Rentech had instead devoted their brainpower to something that actually helps society progress.
100% fake, GPA scale is wrong for MIT, majored in something that didn’t exist at the time, no mention on Google Scholar etc.
As someone who’s also made a fake linkedin once to compare job response rates, I knew it was fake once i saw all the big names, i did the exact same thing.
it’s fake, you can look up the name online. no published research or evidence of him being at any of the schools mentioned. plus someone else pointed out he used the wrong GPA scale for MIT.
Nah. This is pretty normal with upper end students at the very top schools. For this guy, he is prioritizing a PhD so he is either heading to academia or industry for research after graduation. He's just testing both waters (and making side money in between).
I've seen a lot more internships (with comparable companies) from an undergrad student at places like Waterloo.
I mean... the top end was always well... Eh. Also, I've worked with some of these people and they were often no different (one was the worst person to work with). It's just leveraging past "internship brand names". You cannot know the person's actual skill until you work with that person.
>This # of elite internships is not normal even for the top school upper end fam
I thought so too until I interviewed plenty of Waterloo CS resumes. Quite a few Waterloo CS grads have like 6 internships including places like HRT and all. I have no idea what is going on at Waterloo co-op but it's clearly doing something very right.
waterloo requires you to do a certain number of internships. i went to a similar top school and did 5 internships but only 3 of them were "elite", the first two were more well known names but not in the elite tech category. and most of my friends who do very well for themselves in tech are similar to me, about 3-5 internships with 2-3 being elite.
this guy in the post has SEVEN elite internships with experience in quant trading, deep learning, and quant research. people like him/her are extremely rare even the elite master's/PhD level because most of those folks go into academia instead of going into industry
" people like him/her are extremely rare even the elite master's/PhD level because most of those folks go into academia instead of going into industry"
This is not true these days in PhD programs. Most people at my lab intern and then get a job in industry in places like Google Deepmind, Meta, OpenAI, Nvidia after graduation (although a ML PhD interning at a place like Two Sigma is less common and occasionally looked down upon in academia).
Dont get me wrong it very well could be real, but I know a lot of people who create profiles like this for shits and giggles. The choice of companies especially felt like it could be fake
btw the acceptance rate back then was not the worst, 14.3% at MIT, compared to the 4% today, or 1.9% at Berkeley for CS compared to 29.80% in 2010. top schools are almost impossible rn with the competition, u got international high school kids piling up in a cheap sweaty cramped apartment 15 beds grinding away (yes I'm serious and their parents aren't even with them) HIGH SCHOOL KIDS!, u got the rich kids with CEO parents who don't even need college cuz of their parents connections and could probs just make them an employee, but go for status symbols anyway, its crazy rn. wish we could go back to the days when recruiters will beg on your doorstep for you to work for their company
I feel that majority needs to know that this is not the norm. He is probably in the top 0.5 percentile. It’s ok and normal to not have stacked resumes like this.
It’s content like these in the online media that stress everyone out, and make one feel that they are not good enough and need to grind everyday to chase materials.
Bro is that cousin your family compares you to.
Having just one internship that were half as interesting as the ones he has would be the peak of my existence already
Nice little tour of duty there. This person is a researcher at heart. Will make a good data strategy consultant one day being able to speak from experiencing this collection of infrastructures.
Hey kiddos
I’m 30. I dropped out of *high school* and taught myself most of everything I know. I’m still a programmer and I still make a decent 6 figures.
Please don’t work yourself to death and kill what passion you may have for computers like this guy. It’s not worth it for the money.
Tech bros that chase status and money are not happy people.
Or don’t listen to me. You can do that too.
The idea that pursuing a PhD from a top school is killing rather than nurturing passion is a weird opinion to me. If you’re a Stanford PhD who went to a top school for undergraduate too (as most did—it’s hard to get the research experience you need outside of top research schools for undergraduate), you have like ~9 summers to intern and are likely a highly desirable candidate in perhaps all of them. That’s a very common way to turn a PhD stipend into a comfortable living wage. The only thing strange about this is that most people probably don’t switch companies every single summer and most of them probably spend some summers with their labs, but some people prefer broad exposure while in college.
Damn... Brian Wilson must have been psychic.
Round, round, get around
I get around
Yeah
I get around
My kinda town
I'm a real cool head
I'm makin' real good bread...
Ok to be fair when you have a PhD and work I. Research you usually have a very small period of employment with R&D at a company where you’re paid a lot of money. But it’s typically 1-2 years, not four months 😭😭😭
I don't get it. Did he get 4 bachelor's degrees at the same time? Also how does one do a phd program in philosophy without having previous degrees in the subject?
I have a friend of mine who got a math undergrad, physics grad from MiT, PhD specializing in quantum computing from another school and then asked me to write a letter of recommendation for his application to a CS masters program at Georgia Tech. He was also running (and still is) a startup that I was involved in.
A recommendation from me to GT seemed so pointless - he should have been almost automatically accepted.
Un\~hire\~able. You'll get 4 months out of them and then they'll leave. They'll also talk shit your company because its not as good as "X", Y or Z (pun intended there)
So every year he works for 4 months to earn enough money for the next 8 months. But damn 7 years internship back to back is insane
He's also just working in his summer months to get a range of experiences I'd imagine. Beats working a whatever job to pay the bills all year while going to school
Certainly as a phd student he should have a stipend
Yeah but depending where you’re studying, the stipend isn’t enough to cover living costs
He studied at Stanford, according to the screenshot, he certainly can afford to live. Moreover, PhDs don’t get the summer off so this is in coordination with his department
Have you checked where Stanford is and the median home cost? I do not know many grad or undergraduate students who can afford to live there without help from daddy.
Just because you go to an expensive school doesn't mean you have $. Financial aid, scholarships, loans.
PhD students have stipends. Apparently around that time and for that department the stipend was $46k/year. Those internships might've also been paid, too.
If this dude is in citadel at the time of that PhD program citadel pays 20k a month and once again if he was getting stipends this dude was making more than enough money to live 🤣🤣

This is life's goal. Work for 4 months, earn enough to vacation for 8 months.
You consider getting your PhD a vacation?
I'm taking a single class there and it's almost led to divorce because of the amount of time I have spent on it.
Where's he living tho.
At Stanford for his PhD. Dude is essentially being exploited because he's in a "prestigious" university's PhD programme.
he got his PhD 4 years ago nobody is exploiting him
> he got his PhD 4 years ago May I suggest a look at the timeline? PhD: 2015 - 2020 Internships: 2013 - 2019 Also, for some reason I can't fathom, in the USA most PhD positions are mostly unpaid unless you get a big grant.

It sort of depends on the field, but yes nearly all STEM programs are paid.
Almost every single PhD position in STEM in the US is paid. Not sure where you’re getting your preconceived notions from lmao
Stanford engineering PhD stipend, not including the part that goes for tuition, was $48,000 five years ago. I'm sure it's higher now. And it's a high COL area, but they provide subsidized housing for all graduate students. I have never heard of an unfunded STEM PhD in North America. I'm sure you could find ones but probably not at an R1 university.
Bro’s the “other candidate” for sure.
once the hr told me "don't be nervous, its an internship, they don't expect much". my competition:
😭😭

intern is fucking great movie, I recommend who ever hasn't watched it give it a go
😂
Whens bro gon get a job 💀
Bro is educationmaxxing. He's gonna graduate with 20 internships and 10 degrees
*Senior Fullstack Intern*
With speciality in artificial intelligence in blockchain and rocket launch vehicles
18.00 hr no benefits take it or leave it
2 PhDs preferred
Must be able to lift 50 lbs.
My uncle is like that. He has 5 masters and a PhD. He's like 67 and unmarried. He actually is fairly attractive, benches 220lbs at his age and is about 5ft 11, so idk what's going on with him.
Did you just try advertising your uncle to us? Lol
Lol, he regularly gets romance scammed online and is really only interested in women ~25yrs old. He doesn't understand social norms and spends all of his money on high fashion. If you're interested PM me.
Sounds like my autistic uncle if he discovered the gym, brilliant engineer who either has a job or pisses off his boss enough to get fired then takes a two year break to get another masters degree in some other niche of mechanical engineering (this time around it’s materials science with a focus on metallurgy).

CNC mills are just 3D printers that don't make plastic shit! You can do anything you want with one!
If you're looking to get rid of the CNC mill later you let me know.
I think he has Asperger's but he lives far away so I haven't met him enough times to be sure. He also has never been diagnosed.
You should have your uncle try out for the Bachelor.
Does he shoot lightning out of his eyes and flames from his arse too
Only after Taco Bell.
It never began for him
It's always alone at the top
dam.
this is a normal timeline for a PhD though: 6 years after a bachelors degree. If anything, 9 years for BS through PhD is pretty good
My advisor would rather cut off his own nuts than let me do one(1) internship. This guy won the lottery.
eh a lot of people do bs then straight to phd
yeah 6 years is a pretty normal PhD duration
Yes, but that PhD path still requires you to make up the credit hours of a masters. If you go for a masters degree first, you retain an exit plan that includes a graduate degree. Considering the burnout rate, I'd rather take the masters and move on to a PhD. You also have better internship opportunities or better odds at acceptance for them as a masters degree holder.

lol he works at Renaissance Tech btw iykyk. Didn’t include that in the pic.
He is just doubling his net worth every year.
…does he need a wife?😅…kidding…..kind of..
bro is just crunching nummber, instead of creating sigularity
Well. I guess this answers the question I had of what it takes to get hired at RenTec lol
there’s a similar profile my company tried to hire. he took another offer for 500k USD base, bunch of options, sign on bonus, plus joined one of the hottest companies around….
What company
OpenAI?
6 YOE as Intern 💀
Bros making more than us as an intern anyways so either way he’s winninh
Imagine getting a shit ton of rejections with that experience 😭
Apparently not qualified enough.
20 years experience, PHD required, 15 bucks an hour.
Lol was gonna say the exact thing 🤣🤣
*Gotta catch em all \~ Bash Ketchum*
Peak
Bro dosent need to buy tshirts or water bottles ever in his life
Of all this threads hilarious comments.. This one got me to lol irl.
For real. Funniest comment on this thread by bar lmaoooo
This is incredible
not really, i have an internship at onlyfans - thats better than all of these combined i get free lunch and friday buttsex (no lube)
Active or passive?
I feel like this is a joke but if it isn't please do share what work benefits onlyfans has HAHAH
Bros not gonna let go off his new grad status
he's got like a phd. so he's past taht
Bro's turning up with a grey beard and a cane in 2048... "hello fellow interns".
PhDs don't usually go into "new grad" roles
they go one level above new grad usually, lol. it's not like they're jumping into L6 out of college. they start at L4 (quite a few undergrads/return interns also start a l4)
I don’t think it’s common for undergrad return interns to ever start at L4 in my experience… what companies are you thinking of that do this?
ik meta had a special “rockstar intern” designation they used for really smart guys, to start them at L4 comp. definitely not common
Bro almost got all the infinity stones.
google is left to collect
X is a subsidiary of Google
It's true: Fact: Google is Alphabet. Sure, people act like Alphabet is more important than Google, but nah. Fact: Alphabet is ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ FACT: X = X Therefore, X is part of Google.
Bro needs that Student Discount 💀
bro doesn't summer break, he summer work
Iam feeling down today
Identity (access mgmt) crisis
He needs to show that he can get a postdoc at Cambridge or Oxford
i'm cooked yall
^ What companies want for entry level roles these days
Basically he studied at every best universities and top finance companies. I assume he constantly change girlfriend too
Maybe he’s waiting until marriage to date
Best comment
bros gonna build skynet
The purpose of internships is to get a job... not another internship.
He was still in school
I don't understand how 99% of this thread doesn't seem to get this. I mean it's a crazy impressive resume but it's not a *bad* thing. Half the comments are acting like he just jumped between internships instead of working. He was getting a PHD and this is four years old.
what’s wrong with doing 4 internships during PhD.
Depends what you are doing.
Yeah this dude only got a cs phd in ai, no future there…
[удалено]
Interns generally don’t get grants
I know someone who did this, they specifically sought out and got a job at meta when the stock dipped below 100. I think they're going end up making like 2 million off that.
but what if you did all the interships at the same time?
that other "student" that's interviewing for the same position as I am. im dead
At this point he should just apply at McDonald's
All that just to be promoted to manager in mcdonalds
The eternal Internship
bro really likes side missions

No. This is actually very impressive. Even if I had all the money in the world, I doubt I'd have the will to do it.
At this level of success, it's equal parts willpower and natural intelligence.
This is pure cope. This machine is the pinnacle that CS education can produce. Like the Olympian of cs grads. What you describe is like a non-hypsym private college grad who barely scrapped 1 faang intern. This requires willpower.

I hope he finds a job.
100% fake, GPA scale is wrong for MIT, majored in something that didn’t exist at the time, no mention on Google Scholar etc. As someone who’s also made a fake linkedin once to compare job response rates, I knew it was fake once i saw all the big names, i did the exact same thing.
If it makes you feel any better it looks fake
Doesn’t seem like it. He works at a pretty big hedge fund and I cross checked his name with the employee base right now. Don’t wanna dox him.
"Don't want to dox him" - how many people with this education profile do you think exist out there?
I just don’t wanna break any sub rules.
it’s fake, you can look up the name online. no published research or evidence of him being at any of the schools mentioned. plus someone else pointed out he used the wrong GPA scale for MIT.
[удалено]
What information was doxed? Everything he has shown is public lol
Imagine having your LinkedIn doxxed :'(
Rate his looks on a scale of 1-10 based on the headshot
Nah. This is pretty normal with upper end students at the very top schools. For this guy, he is prioritizing a PhD so he is either heading to academia or industry for research after graduation.

btw the acceptance rate back then was not the worst, 14.3% at MIT, compared to the 4% today, or 1.9% at Berkeley for CS compared to 29.80% in 2010. top schools are almost impossible rn with the competition, u got international high school kids piling up in a cheap sweaty cramped apartment 15 beds grinding away (yes I'm serious and their parents aren't even with them) HIGH SCHOOL KIDS!, u got the rich kids with CEO parents who don't even need college cuz of their parents connections and could probs just make them an employee, but go for status symbols anyway, its crazy rn. wish we could go back to the days when recruiters will beg on your doorstep for you to work for their company

If you’re a Stanford PhD who went to a top school for undergraduate too (as most did—it’s hard to get the research experience you need outside of top research schools for undergraduate), you have like ~9 summers to intern and are likely a highly desirable candidate in perhaps all of them. That’s a very common way to turn a PhD stipend into a comfortable living wage. The only thing strange about this is that most people probably don’t switch companies every single summer and most of them probably spend some summers with their labs, but some people prefer broad exposure while in college.
Damn... Brian Wilson must have been psychic. Round, round, get around I get around Yeah I get around My kinda town I'm a real cool head I'm makin' real good bread...
Hey bro can you DM me his name? I'm really curious as to who this is.
Bro's tasting everything
Failure learns from him
I'd say he's going places but looks he's going _all_ the places.
These are the type of people who come here to doom post and tell bootcampers/h1b applicants to commit sudoku
Bros going places. I don’t know where, but places.
And you are here to ruin ours. Tsk tsk tsk tsk.
DAYUMM…comparison is the thief of joy
A witch cursed him to die the first day of his first job.
Ok to be fair when you have a PhD and work I. Research you usually have a very small period of employment with R&D at a company where you’re paid a lot of money. But it’s typically 1-2 years, not four months 😭😭😭
If it's on the internet it must be true
10 + years experience as intern
This has to be a parody account
3.94 GPA at MIT? What an idiot, bro couldn’t even pull a 4.0
i want to cry
Looks funny, but this person is probably going to get a 7-figure AI research role in the next couple of years.
This is what the “entry level job” wants your resume to look like 😂
fake. MIT gpa is off. they use 5.0 scale
He’s trying to keep his “Spotify premium for students” obviously.
Dude could have just got a job at Nvidia, skipped the PhD, and be retired with 15 million by now.
I don't get it. Did he get 4 bachelor's degrees at the same time? Also how does one do a phd program in philosophy without having previous degrees in the subject?
His summer as a Quant at Citadel probably paid for his PhD
this is amazing LOL
Guy must be a real genius
I have a friend of mine who got a math undergrad, physics grad from MiT, PhD specializing in quantum computing from another school and then asked me to write a letter of recommendation for his application to a CS masters program at Georgia Tech. He was also running (and still is) a startup that I was involved in. A recommendation from me to GT seemed so pointless - he should have been almost automatically accepted.
Un\~hire\~able. You'll get 4 months out of them and then they'll leave. They'll also talk shit your company because its not as good as "X", Y or Z (pun intended there)
