A recruiter from fb reached out to discuss Android developer positions at Facebook. hypothetical scenario - if I cleared the interview and joined as an Android developer, would that prevent me from switching over internally to regular developer roles in case I find their work more interesting? Also would the interview be like a standard leetcode Dev interview or would it be Android knowledge based instead?
It's a regular loop with a design round focusing on Android development. You'll have a better chance in a regular loop if you spend less than two years on Android.
You wouldn't be prevented from switching - Android devs are still SWE.
Thanks for all the inputs, I'll check with the recruiter if they have open reqs for SWE and consider me for those. If not, I'll prepare for the Android developer role
Coding is key. Core Java.
What does this even mean
