I’ve seen conflicting versions about the difficulty of Google admission. Some say anyone can get into it, even from Bootcamps. Some say all it took was couple of leetcode grinds. Some say it’s incredibly hard therefore highly prestigious. Exactly how hard is it ? Target school ? GPA ? How many leetcode grind ?

1 vs 5 Million - no lifestyle change
Every company is just a matter of leetcode grinds Google tends to be 3 mediums 1 hard - but sometimes you can get unlucky and get all hards. Or lucky and get all mediums. Or all easies even. But on avg 3 medium 1 hard
And is the expectation to get all of them right? If yes you move one, if no you don’t?
Generally ya. Maybe a leeway to do leaning hire / leaning no hire on 1. But that’s it. Try and get strong hire on all
It comes down to luck more than anything.
It’s easy if you look up leaked questions on 1point3acres.com I know a lot of dumb people who got in because they saw the exact questions on that website. It’s mainland Chinese grad students help each other cheat.
They must have practiced a lot.
LC is the same these days with interview breakdowns.
Yeah, I'm not good at live coding. I do well until that interview normally but I haven't interviewed in years.
Lmao your first problem is thinking people from bootcamps are worse than someone w a cs degree when arguably the boot campers have been coding longer or at least consistently most likely. Second all faang interview are just a game. If you have discipline to LC you can get in. Anyone? No.
Easy to get it at L-1 or L-2 of your current level
Lol famous downleveling
Don’t tell ‘em.
I’ve not gotten through but I learned last time you can request leetcode interviews. I’ve had really idiotic android phone screens before. Ie write a multithreaded bound service flapjack timer app in android without looking anything up in 20 minutes in a google doc.
Don't know shit about Android but never thought I would run into someone who would voluntarily ask for leetcode. 😂 Teach me your LC ways sensei. 🧎♂️🧎♂️
Maybe he meant a mock interview. FB and G both provide those.
