Which tech companies in Bay area has very low hiring bar, do gc processing. Got burnt out with my side hustle in last 4 years. Health totally detoteriated . Also settling down with marriage and stuff. Current workplace became a nightmare . Need to leave ASAP. I did do 208(143 solved , rest attempted) leetcode problems so far in last 3 months. Attended MS interview and flunked(not badly). Havent covered graphs, DP, Greedy and backtracking yet(that was another mistake). But I wanna move ASAP. Current tc: 95k$
Maybe you wanna check https://github.com/poteto/hiring-without-whiteboards
What's the point of doing 208 leetcode then?
He seems like looking for a fast track. After 6 months he can apply for real TC.
Thank you, this is an awesome link of companies!
With 208 LC problems that you've done, you should be able to handle at least doing decently well on some of the non FAANG companies that still whiteboard you. The list of non whiteboard companies would be for someone who hasn't done any in terms of confidence level.
Try Cognizant..
208 is a lot. You should have cleared ms. Which company are you in? Location? Yoe? Are you swe or qa?
Currently in a non profit govt org. Bay area. 6 years of exp. Swe I felt , I did good on MS interview. My approach and complexity were right. Later I realized , I didn't complete the code. All were left in mid way and I took more time to write. I loved all the interviewers after a long time. They were so warm and welcoming , smiling faces and felt positive vibes.
Yes, interviewer in ms are very good and ego part is not there as we have for fang
Try Cerner Corporation in Kansas City Area. H1B, GC all take care of. A fixed set of questions for interviews from the glassdoor. Pay will be less (70K+) and it is enough to live pretty well and still save $1500+ per month.
How’s work life balance?
The traditional 9-5 job which includes 30 mins of lunchtime. Day start time depends on the team's scrum time, and release days will need the team to be in office after 5 pm until deployment completion. Most folks go to the office gym after 4:00 PM. Leaving early on Fridays. New projects mean high velocity and more work in the pipeline. Mature products mean low velocity and less work in the pipeline. YMMV.
Microsoft, amazon, oath, paypal, adobe, salesforce, should all be possible after the anount of leetcode. In some places u might get a graph/ backtracking etc, so interview multiple places.
My suggestion is to cover graph before the ibterviews though
Square is also a very good option. They dont do whiteboard. You have to code on ide, and the questions are not standard LC.
Thanks. Let me try
