Did anyone used Kickstart interview? They are quite costly, and they show high compelling dreams of getting into Tech companies.
I am looking for real experience
You mean interview kickstart?
Yes
IMO don’t spend that much money instead use that money to buy a course from educative for the coding questions and get LC premium subscription. For system design there are lot of resources on YouTube. You can use free platform like pramp or interviewing.io for mocks
They are not worth it in my opinion.
You probably mean Interview Kickstart. I found it very helpful though be prepared to put in 6+ months of daily work. The coding curriculum is great, the system design is great in covering fundamental ideas but needs a lot of reading from your own side as well, the career coaching and behavioral prep were also very useful to me. 15 mock interviews is a lot, I barely used 8 of them. You are part of a cohort with like minded people like you working hard which was motivating for me. I found a bunch of people and we practiced together and shared interview post mortems.
Did it benefit you getting into FB?
Yup. I had 3 other competing offers that helped me negotiate a decent offer as well.
How much does it cost?
They have various fee structure. If you want to take a full course for one role, around 2k
I didn’t see any options anywhere near 2k. The options from the intro webinar were around 6k+
Isn’t scaler academy same thing but less costly ?
Not same thing. Scaler is for Indian context And cater more to freshers
I spent roughly $7000
Did you get into FB after that? Did you feel it worth? Also what was the role
E5. I think it was worth it. I would not have had the structure or motivation to prepare on my own. For coding problems they break them down into patterns and teach you many tricks. Omkar's videos on various topics are gold. It would be quite hard getting to them yourself by researching solutions on leetcode.
Was worth it for me. Went from 110k TC to 400k.
Wow! What role
Replied in thread above Sdet
OP, Dm If interested. I am also thinking about joining

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
I have heard they are worth the money
