Hey guys I figured I would help the community since you guys are awesome 👏 I got 5 offers out of 9-10 interviews over 1 month Fb - reject , one coding round I needed help. No feedback but everything else went good . I did finish that question . Very high bar . L6 Goog - downlevelled to L5 - I would have taken it but I had already signed Tableau coz they took fucking forever . tc 350K Bay Area . Wayfair - EM offer - Tc 250k i forget breakup: loc Boston . Declined verbal offer Aws SR SA - L6 - declined offer . TC 270K declined - seattle 160K base Splunk - EM role - declined offer - loc Bay Area - TC 300K+ with 190 base 100K RSU Tableau - accept -. Cant share breakup or role- dont want to be identified. TC 340K. Netflix - reject after Hiring manager . Not a good fit and recruiter ignored me after for roles that were a good fit. Robinhood - reject after Hiring manager - I was 100% a good fit for this position honestly. My background aligned 100% with the job - they were trying to do what I had already done in my past job ✅ I didn’t get the reject. I think the hiring manager I would have reported to was too junior and got scared of being over shined. Discord - declined after HM interview too. Wish companies gave feedback 😟 Msft - bad recruiters honestly lol so unresponsive. Everything was going good then ghosted ? Its like rolling a dice Yoe - 10-14
Congrats on the offers. Agree with the point about no feedback. Amazon is the biggest culprit here. Bunch of assholes.
Tbh no one gave me feedback
Feedback is a liability for companies. Very few companies will deliver feedback and when they do it's usually somewhat vague
Where, what level?
Hats off sir
I thought Robinhood had boot camp. Is it for L4 level?
No no - I got rejected by hiring manager after first round - it was weird. I answered all tech questions correctly and background was 100% fit
When I interviewed for L3 level, it wasn’t for a specific team. It was a general hire like Facebook. So only talked to engineers. No manager.
Is this SWE, Product or some other area. Curious to know.
Software engineering
Wayfair seems to be l3 offer, you should have interviewed for l5 since u r in l6 loops with other companies
What were the problems from fb?
Amazing re Robinhood. I had exactly same experience. Like you are describing what I have went through. Funnily enough that part of RH is currently blowing up in media as it's mismanaged.
Haha sorry buddy - it’s their loss 😛 I do think my manager would have sucked so dodged a bullet tbh. Someone said on blind somewhere - smart people hire People better or as good as them. Weak people hire people worse than them.
I know some amazing googlers got RH offer.

Can you give a rundown on the interviews for the companies? Or what you did to prep?
Leetcode. I didn’t prep system design coz that’s basically what I did at my old job .
What was the mix of algo vs system design?
