Got an offer from Uber; well, sort of. Turns out they were interviewing me for L5A but with my experience it should have been L5B. Their interview panel for L5A cannot evaluate for an L5B candidate, it seems, so they asked me if I was willing to go through another full day loop.

I had other strong Staff level offers already so there was no real motivation to do another full loop. I was mentally exhausted.

I asked how high they would be willing to go for their offer if I agree to the L5A role. They said max TC of 500K. Did not get to breakdown etc since my other offers were significantly higher.

YOE: 12
Current TC: 488K

    If you already have other offers and L5A offer is much below than those, then i guess you could try for another full loop given how much extra L5B can fetch you

      OP
      I certainly could have. But this was the last interview I did after some gruelling weeks of preparation and full day interview loops so I was mentally not motivated for another round when offers from the others loops started to come by then.

    If you have other strong staff offer, why bother?

      OP
      Mostly traditional leetcode problems. I had two problems that used graph theory bfs and Dijkstra traversal.
