I was told the L6 loop went super well. They want me to meet more senior managers to evaluate for a higher level: L7. Any advice on how to prepare?
Nice usually goes the other way around getting downgraded
What do they interview for L6 ? LC hard ?
Yoe and tc?
Tell about a time... Expect LPs up the a$$!
Thanks
What does "up the a$$" mean?
Think big
Prepare examples around Amazon 14 principles... especially around customer obsession, think long term and innovation. Also about handling disagreements, dependency resolution and decesion making with limited information.
Thanks. This is very helpful!
Blind gods won't forgive easily if it's a troll post...how the heck did you get a company to uplevel 😒
It's not a troll
What level at MSFT?
Are the technical questions for L7 SDM system design questions or integrated into the LP questions? I.e. of the 5 interviews is it 3xLP, 2xSystem Design. And are the system design the "Design Twitter/Netflix/Search " sort of questions?
The L7 interview is heavily focused on LPs. Through examples you show your technical skills. There was a writing exercise as well that needs to cover your skills in building and leading big technical initiatives. The L7 interview is very different from L6. You need to show you have vision and can lead ideas and teams.
Thanks for the feedback! I have my onsite for L7 coming up soon. They didn't mention writing exercise. It that a case study type question where you produce a document?
