Either they’ll down level you to E3 or no offer.

I don’t know about Facebook but I had one mediocre coding round (out of four) at Amazon final (all three were strong). I didn’t get the offer. From my experience if you don’t nail all you may not get the offer since there are so many strong candidates.

Amazon also places a lot of weight on leadership principles. Are you sure you didn’t do poorly there?

Deloitte hjqhwhd Oct 22, 2019

Agree - I can say coming from consulting background I feel I communicated my thoughts effectively. But of course this is subjective.

Zero chances

Not sure if ur trolling but Why is that?

eBay kjhgfssx Oct 23, 2019

Sounds pretty low to me

:( thanks for ur input

If only one round was weak then they will ask you to come again for interview. More than one round weak, no chance in my opinion. All the best.

4/5 can be ok, 3/5 is no good unfortunately.

However it is possible that your expectations and perceptions and your interviewer's aren't aligned and you actually did better than you thought. This has happened to me before.

Capital One 2PM2 OP Oct 22, 2019

I hope so! Thanks 1👌1

If you think you are weak why would someone else think you are strong?

Capital One 2PM2 OP Oct 22, 2019

I was able to answer all the questions except for the last round. Might be because I was tired and the room start to heat up due to broken AC. We had to leave the door open for that round.

Capital One 2PM2 OP Oct 22, 2019

All other coding round I was able to come to an answer

Oscar 🐨 🐨 🐨🐨 Oct 22, 2019
