FAANG Re-interview
Is it true that if one does badly at an interview first time, it’s difficult to get another one even after the rest period say after a year? Finding it a bit hard to get a re-interview at Apple & Amazon after bombing phone interview.
It depends on how badly
Like bombed phone interview first time?
I wouldn't use that term
No, given a sufficiently long period of rest.
I have interviewed at google every year since 2012 and have not passed
Is the freeze period one year or less for google ?
What if you apply using a new account?
No idea
Don’t think so. Bombed Microsoft phone interview in 2014, got in into Microsoft in 2015. Heavily bombed Google phone screen in 2017, have a full time offer now and I’m joining in the first week of June. The worst is you might have to wait for longer than the regular cool off (like say 1.5-2 years) and be prepared for the next try. All the best!
Thanks
Curious: why leave Apple for Google? I just got a Google offer, but I've been trying to get an Apple interview (no luck). I suspect I'd like it there more. Also, I BOMBED (terribly, like comically bad) a Google phone screen 4 years ago. And I got an offer on Friday. So, from experience, it seems like anything can happen.
Bombed Facebook interview twice and Google once. Will try again next year.
Stay strong and stop bombing, comrade.
Yes sir
No
Yes. Very true.
Coming from someone that never worked at FANG lol
How about now?
