The first thing I’d like to mention here is I am Indian too yet expecting a lot of bashing on this post. Just got a call from my recruiter that I’ve cleared the loop and the offer will be sent out soon. This was my 4th attempt at interviewing at one of the FAANGs. The 1st time when I was not having any Indian interviewer on the loop, and I can tell you all the interviews were more of technical talks rather than just one person speaking. There were no looks given if I went wrong, no frustrated faces seen if I needed a hint or if I asked more details about the question. The follow up questions asked were reasonable and genuine to know how I think, rather than any interviewer trying to show how much smarter he is than me. Overall, this was a good experience. Just a piece of advice to my fellow country men, please be generous and good interviewers. Interviews are meant to extract the maximum out of the candidate, and not to show much more you know than the candidate. For ppl DMing, yes I got an hint who must have given a negative feedback based on improvements suggested by recruiters during the rejection calls. TC ~150k, yet to get the new Offer
Agree with you
I hear you, I unfortunately have noticed exactly same dilemma before. For some reasons Indian interviewers are trying to prove something instead of gauging candidates skills. Congratulations!
Yes I have also noticed same dilemma.
He works at MS. He didn’t mention where he interviewed. Assuming it’s a faang. OP where?
Dude you offended half the people on blind already. Just say it. Seattle blows. Ok. Now 90% offended. Spit it out.
Isn’t the whole point of Blind that you can piss people off WHILE talking openly about TC and your org? Just say it...
Which FAANG company?
So, Amazon ? 😊
Edited the post, however not mentioning the name. That hint should be enough to guess.
So Google?
I think it's apple since he changed to faang
What does it matter which FAANG it is, all you curious cats. OP wanted to express an opinion and they did. Now move on!
So mechanic shop?
Somehow every Indian is expert at finding mistakes with every other indian, but never finds anything wrong with himself/herself.
Dropped a bomb
Exactly.
