Personal Ranking: Google Facebook AirBNB Netflix Instagram Snapchat Apple Uber LinkedIn Twitter Pinterest Lyft I’ve done about 100 Leetcode and I have 12 paid mock interviews lined up that I haven’t completed yet. Planning on going through “Grokking the System Design Interview” as well. I know some of the names listed at the top have a very high bar, but I’m hoping this is a big enough list that I’ll at least get a bite from one company to facilitate my move to the West Coast. YoE: 5, TC: 175k
With 5 yoe, you should expect 350K TC from these companies... 175k TC is for new grads And these companies will expect you lead things at some scope
I am currently a team lead, so that works for me. 175k is fairly decent in the job market where I am currently, but obviously it doesn’t hold a candle to 350k, even with the higher CoL of the Bay.
If you are lucky enough to get E5/T5 LinkedIn senior, ask for at least 300K, fair price and be brave
2-3 months. Not all Leetcode, I was busy going through InterviewKickstart.
Things ebb and flow. I’ll sure you’ll get back into it :)
Twitter and Pinterest before Lyft?!
To be honest everything below Instagram is in the same bucket for me. Lyft did seem inherently less interesting because my perception is that it’s just a copy of Uber. That could just be my ignorance — open to hear why you think they should be taken more seriously!
Instagram it’s one of the facebook products, you know
How many leetcode/day?
Hmm. Every evening I probably do 2-3 medium or 1 hard and 1 medium.
Do u time box each question?
Why not
AIRbnb, got it

Why Airbnb over Netflix and instagram?
Let's say you have interviews coming up for all 12 companies you listed. Let's assume that your average offer likelihood is 10% (quite conservative). In that case, the likelihood of getting one offer is: 1 - (1 - .1)^12 = .72 Generalized: 1 - (1 - x)^y where x is your average likelihood and y is the number of places you interview.
Shit.
@hey 1 - [Π i=1, y] .95 - .02*(i-1)
18.71618%
Interesting. I’m coming up with a thirty-two point three three (repeating of course) percent chance of survival.
