I really cannot-make-it. Looks like the only offers I will be getting are not FAANG, not even FAANG-like, e.g. MSFT. Position is Data/Research scientist doing real ML and DL work, not SQL monkey. Still interviewing. Have offers for some, others just finished on-site and was good. Will prob get full pic by mid September. Choices are: Expedia, Wayfair, Chase, Hewlett-Packard, SAS, Bloomberg, AIG. This is mostly for SDE 2 type of seniority. PhD with 2yrs experience. Nobody seems to be able to break $200k TC so far... :( If getting to FAANG is my life goal, which one would be a good stepping stone?
Bloomberg seems to have more interesting ML going on.
Lol
Wayfair
no shiet, breaking $200k as a wage earner is only possible at top companies or in management at non-top companies
Expedia, SAS, and Bloomberg from this list. IMO.
The list is fine.
How many times u interviewed at faang?
I made a mistake and had Amazon/MSFT as my first serious interview. Flopped that... So now left with non FAANG interviews.
So u just tried once at msft and amzn and already made ur mind that u cant make it?
No of course not. I'll keep trying. Just planning out some hypothetical scenarios.
👆🏼this...
Getting into FAANG is not a laughable life goal. Keep trying and doing your thing, OP.

I haven’t done shit today!
Getting to faang as a life goal is laughable. Pick better life goals.
Don’t be rude and laugh at someone’s goals man
Shit goals are shit goals, regardless of the person.
