SDE2 to E5 at FB

If onsite loop has 2 coding, 1 background+coding, and 1 design interview is it possible they could be considering for E5? Or would there need to be more design for an E5 loop?

2 design rounds are needed for E6, not E5. I don’t know what the requirements for E4 are, though.

E3 has the same exact rounds. You’re being considered as E3 sorry

E4-E5 have same rounds

How much experience you got?

It’s possible they are considering you for E5, but you’re gonna have to demonstrate you’re at that level.

Demonstrate how? What differentiates an e5 from e4 in the same system design and coding rounds?

Facebook , May 5, 2018

Coding doesn’t differentiate. Ability to crush design round does.

I had 1 design round when interviewed at 4, and 2 when applied at 5. Pretty sure yours is for E4.

It’s either.

really hard to jump level. Trust me

Amazon imstupid OP May 5, 2018

Oh is e5 supposed to be a jump? Thought sde2 mapped to e4/5
