Outside the top tier ones which of these is the next Hardest to get in.
Amazon is a joke
Um maybe, but what is your company then?
Mine I didn't even interview... So imagine
Amazon has the highest bar among these companies but that’s not because they ask you tough technical questions. They decide mostly based on how well you can worship bezos and his leadership principles. It’s a cult in there.
Google not even in list
maybe these are the ones from which OP got offers
I read it again. It says outside the top tier ones. Please include Amazon and Microsoft into the to tier ones.
Um no they are both not tier 1
Someone got their little ego hurt...
MemSQL
You forgot Pornhub.
Haha lyft is leading? Really? They have 1 coding round and those problems are all on Glassdoor/Chinese sites. Their phone rounds are harder than onsite actually..
Do a bro a favor and PM links to those Chinese websites.
Amazon is not consistent. L4 (college hire) bar has gone very low. 90% get in through internship who don’t need any extra interviews later for converting to full time. Interns get in just based on phone interview. Even if you get rejected by one interviewer you might get 2nd or 3rd interview until you make it. On the other hand L5-L6 is quite hard. Acceptance rate is 10-20%. L7 is very very hard for external candidates. Much harder comparing to similar level at other FAANGs. You’ll see more people getting E6/T6 at FB/Google than L7 at Amazon. All of the above for SWE (pure IC) positions.
Do most college hires end up doing well at amazon?
No. My manager just PIP'd our latest one, who has only been on the team for 7 or 8 months. Returning intern (albeit from another team) no less. A lot of them burn out from stress, too (which is not for arbitrary reasons--they're just pushed beyond their abilities or short term growth potential). The ones who do well move up fairly fast, though. Amazon takes a philosophically different approach to hiring than a lot of companies in this space: interviews aren't particularly difficult (though not trivial despite claims to the contrary; pass rates are still below 10% for those who even get through the resume screen), but there are continuous feedback loops and actual low performers are managed out pretty quickly.
Lyft is taking it’s name from bar lifters.
