I’m thinking of Google and Facebook engineering residency programs in particular. Typically, most folks in these programs are hired full time after the rotations are done, but I wonder what would happen if G/F go thru hiring freeze - will they still have capacity to extend offers?#

  • Now isn’t the time to be joining rotational teams. You should be securing full time employment

      OP
      Personally I’m in a full time role at AMZN. Asking because I have a friend in one of these rotational programs currently and I’m worried he may graduate the program with no offer due to COVID

      that's cool and all MSFT but unless you're e5 and up rotational is the only way into FB rn. might as well interview now and take a shot and be able to try again in a year.

      (yes, people should be interviewing at other places as well)
