Hello, I am looking forward to interviewing with Facebook and Google Current TC : $250k , Microsoft, L64 Aiming for $600k Yoe : 14 1).What are my possibilities to get to that TC? 2) how can I insist on L7/E7 interviews? 3) Facebook recruiter agreed that I am interviewing for E7 position. How do I ensure she is not lying ? #tech #interview
Looking at levels.fyi the discrepancy between L64 and L7/E7 seems large. So not impossible but definitely difficult especially for Google which downlevels people as it is
L7 is a real stretch with Microsoft L64. L64 is more like mid band L5. If you think you’re at then next level, then try L6/E6. TC is achievable.
L64 would get you L5 with 400-450K TC. If you are a L7/E7 candidate you would have shown that at MS as well and would easily be 67 at-least. So no chance of that.
MS recruiters tricked me. Didn't know about blind, levels.fyi... Considering that I think, me being at 64 without any of these other supports actually is a receipt of me being 66 atleast is not 67.
Don't want to get tricked again, hence cry for help... Can you tell me from your exp, how do I make sure recruiter putting me through right level interview?
Holy shit dude, get out! That's so low! Do you manage people? If so you could try for an L6 loop, which would hit 400-500 easy.
L6 loop... Got it. How do I ensure recruiter is not lying , and putting me through L5? Do you know him past experience?
Wish I could help you more, but ~5 yoe and L4 - but on track for 300k+ next year!
600k is more E6 than E7.
