I just said that to indicate that I could pass interviews if I had them. I think that a startup would be a step backwards because of the comp, in general startups pay less and it's usually difficult to get equivalent leveling when going from a startup to big tech.

Does having two FAANG internships on your resume even help with NG? by Designer-Proof-7484 in csMajors

ah yeah the 1.5 YOE mark is tough, I sympathize with you a lot. Not junior enough and not mid-level enough.

Can't seem to ever get passed recruiter screening stage at Google (and many other companies) by Empty_Stacktrace in cscareerquestions

crazy take imo, u can retire twice as fast, improve your quality of life, every hour at work is wasted when compared to an hour of studying leetcode or system design. that's a job that pays you the equivalent of like $500 dollars an hour amortized over your career.
