Recuiter scheduled L4 rounds and was offered L3 due to coding. F..k google Yoe 11 Tc 240 Not at amazon
11 yoe working same level as new grads.
That's dumb, you should be trying for L5 interviews with that yoe
He said that he sucks at coding... So l3
They donāt even care about coding at L5+. Itās just how well you run projects and can do system design
Itās about quality not quantity
Right and Google shouldnāt be using Leetcode to level people. Thatās what design and domain specific interviews are for.
I donāt make the rules I just play the game š¤·
There was an L3 on my team with 11 YoE who got promoted last year
Google is ruthless. L5 on my team used to be a CTO lol
CTO of what
I once started my own company (FBA private label goods) with 2 buddies and gave myself the title of CEO since I was the one who filled out all the paperwork. Now L6 after 11 years at GOOG
Whatās your level at Amazon?
L5. So L3 is ridiculous
No itās not. Amazon L5= google L4. Youāre getting down leveled one levelā¦ Itās not ridiculous itās quite normal
Google is famous for down leveling.
Amazon is not very great either in that matter.
LOL. Vote with your feet
If you are at Amazon then I would not take it and try again next year. You already have FAANG experience so not worth the down level.
Right. I declined right away without even asking about tc
