You do realize 1/3 Berkeley eecs gets into FAANG right out of the gate. You'll be fine
How much LC have you done?
And whats your LC contest rating?
Youâre never ready.
Lol I somehow snuck into Amazon, so you can make it.. With that experience, you can definitely get into sde 2 at Amazon. Just do LC and practice leadership principles. But really no one is truly ready when they first join a Faang (or really any tech company), there will be ramp up/time spent learning wherever.
None of that matters. What's your LC count?
