Posting for a friend: Both are for iOS app dev teams Apple (Cupertino 45/hr) Lyft (New York city 58/hr) Which one do you think is a better place for my friends last internship? Concerned about tech stack, learning, prestige, return offer, and long term career. Don’t care as much about TC for intern especially, maybe a bit NG.
Apple. Even if he doesn't get a return offer, will open many doors for him.
lol. Lyft probably will shutdown before your start date
Go Apple. Even if you do well in your internship at Lyft, there's a large chance the company can't give you a return offer.
Apple is pretty good about giving return offers. The managers of the teams can just make an offer to you if they feel you’re good and they have the headcount.
Precisely. My team has done this a lot. We have quite a few former interns
Apple, without a doubt. More reliable, more upside
Apple. Probably a smaller chance of a return offer but makes your resume stand out more
Lyft is probably better for learning quick, but Apple will look much better on your resume
I learned a ton during my internships at Lyft but Apple no doubt lol
Go to apple.
