TBH, I feel so blessed! I never would have expected to receive such an offer.

Yes! But I also really wanted to work for a large technology company (i.e. Apple, MS, Amazon, Facebook, or Google) but only Amazon and Microsoft recruit on my campus so I reached out to them out of access.

Hi, I created a throwaway bc it seemed tacky to associate my salary with my name. But I am a graduating BS student in Computer Science from a Big Ten School.

I have the following offers:

Microsoft (Redmond): $100k

Amazon (Seattle): $90k

Boeing (St Louis): $70k

IBM (Columbus): $65k

Nationwide (Columbus): $55k

It's also worth noting that Amazon and Microsoft each are giving generous relocation packages. And Microsoft gave me a $5000 dollar bonus when I signed.
