Blind is a lot of survivor bias.
So I’m curious… how many FAANG interviews have you failed?

Passed 2 Microsoft, Netflix, Amazon and Meta.
Those initial failures though were tough. I haven’t interviewed in 15 years (always either recruited or acquired) so was very rusty. Took a bit to get my game in gear. All the acceptances happened in a 3 week time frame.
Passed Amazon in 2017 (internship) and got return offer.
Failed Google in 2019 (L3) so started Amazon L4
Passed Google in 2022 (L4)
Passed: 2
Failed: 3
