Canceling debt isn’t inflationary or costing tax payers
Sharing stats from my recent job search for anyone curious or currently in the same boat. Overall, lateral moves aren't too difficult to find but couldn't land a role with increased comp or level. Several roles were filled while I was in the process so being able to schedule loops quickly likely a meaningful advantage. Me - 8 YOE all at FANG tier companies - US citizen - Employed while searching - TC 400-600 Process - 20 applications, mostly cold applications, 3-4 recruiter reached out first - 10 rejected at resume - 4 role filled while interviewing - 5 onsites - 3 offers Not taking any of the offers since comp is the same, will continue searching edit: all companies are public (no startups) and most in levels.fyi's list of top paying
What were your offers?
Lol Snap pays too much. They will never make a profit.
How are you able to crack interviews so consistently? Did you hard grind LC? 3 offers out of 5 onsites is amazing dude.
I practiced maybe 100 LC, mostly mediums, no hards. Got to the point where I could solve most mediums in 15min. Was lucky that I wasn't asked any LC hard and half my coding rounds were more practical questions. I have a lot of real world experience with distributed systems so system design didn't require as much prep. I did skim through the usual material like SD primer and DDIA to brush up on concepts
Could you please share the offers?
Which companies did you interview with?
Did the jobs that you applied for matched your profile?
Yes I'm a backend generalist, not AI/ML
Where were on sites and offers?
