My recruiter has just emailed me that I was rejected because the team thinks I should join as an E5 since I have 5.5 yoe, but based on the interview feedbacks I can only get E4. I already told the recruiter that I will accept the E4 offer but still got rejected. Did that happen with anyone before? In the previous conversation, I revealed my current level at eBay and said that it’s equivalent to E5. Is that the reason why they decided to reject me? I will have another call with the recruiter to understand the decision.
Yes, it is common in FB.
Maybe they thought you were desperate to join and wanted you to fight for lvl 5
Sucks to suck but be happy you’re not going to work at fb. It’s a parasite on humanity.
They probably have a freeze on e4 so can't make that offer. But you didn't leetcode memorize enough to make it to e5. Sorry buddy!
It's the design and behavioral interviews that determine your leveling. Leetcode can't help with that.
To get a high level, you need to memorize leetdesign and leetbehavior. 250 of each for E5, 1000 of each for E6. Good luck.
Yep, you done fucked up
When does E4 open up again?
Probably after the summer when the college cycle is over.
That just their way of telling you nicely that they don't want you.
Did recruiter explain the decision? I hear people getting offers for E4, so not sure if this hiring freeze is true?
There are always exceptions. If you are from Google, why not? If you are from eBay, no. Recruiters won’t tell you that.
What's ur ebay level
My current level is MTS
Mts1 ?
