To FB E8+ only
I am planning a move from G to FB
I am L7 SWE at G
If I joined as E7 , I wonder
1) would it be safe for me to ramp up?
2) how does the career growth look like? How long does it take for E7 to E8?
3) is it possible to interview E8 from G L7?
Any suggestion will be super appreciated!

1) ramp up is expected, but after 6 weeks you should be up productive and contributing, preferably sooner. At this level you are expected to know your stuff.
2) E7 is a career position for most people, E7 to E8 is almost impossible without luck, playing politics and being incredibly good at your job.
3) yes it is possible to interview for E8 directly, if you are currently with Google they always give you the option to interview for 1 level up from your current level
Thanks
