My FB recruiter was extremely helpful answering any questions I had about the on site, consider using yours as a resource.

Sure, Thank you!

Mostly medium questions. No DP asked. Make sure you lead every discussion. System design is extremely important. Talk about every option and trade off associated. There is no right answer but there are definitely clearly wrong answers. It’s important to mention what feels wrong and more importantly why.

I thought FB has a hiring freeze for L4. Is this for a SWE position?

Amazon cdOG13 OP Nov 20, 2019

Yes this is for SWE, Seattle.

How are you preparing for system design? Did you ask recruiter what level are you interested for?

Amazon cdOG13 OP Nov 21, 2019

Mostly Grokking for system design. Yes I asked about the level. They are targeting me for E5

Grokking for system design isn’t enough for an E5 position. For E4, yea it’s sufficient
