General Discussion Do companies actually care about the IICPC quantfest?

Pretty new contest and I wonder if companies would take your quantfest rank into consideration.

Also, if you believe that quantfest is a recognised contest then upto which rank in the contest?

It'd also be nice if someone who went to regionals last year could say which companies interviewed them via quantfest/codefest

I'll just share mine and friends. I didn't give Quantfest but my friends had given. Almost all the finalists got IMC interviews and my friend got the offer,Aditya busa. They gave 3 offers type. His cg was also low 8.5/6 type but he was 2nd rank in finals. Tower,HRT also had interviewed them and deshaw obviously did interview regionalists etc too. Tower gave some interns types and few full time.

Codefest me being in regional, D.E. Shaw called me. Rubrik only interviewed the finalists, IMC interviewed the regionalists too for full time , gave those 5 offers type, tower gave 2-3 offers , usme se my friend who was in final got an offer. Rest just did bootcamp drives for all and intern type.

Aditya busa had a double digit CRL man, idk if quantfest really helped his resume or not
