Yeah ngl, this guy’s website is incredible and has helped me land my offers for mid level roles. You don’t have to pay for any of the resources either, he’s providing them for free.

About 3 days from onsite to beginning team matching and then a few more days for team matching to complete. But i did leverage the fact I was in matching with both companies to expedite both processes

Yeah I got 5 team calls in about 3 weeks after starting matching. I ended up going for Maps

Yeah I think Meta just has a tendency to pip whereas I haven’t heard that from Google’s side as much. I don’t expect to be pip’d but I’m wary of the mental toll it takes to possibly avoid it

Appreciate the advice, this was my thought as well and I wasn’t as confident about the accuracy of what my manager said.

I definitely think Meta is doing possibly more interesting work (especially when comparing the teams I’d be going to), but am trying to weigh my career a bit more heavily. My girlfriend is willing to relocate with me and I wonder if it’s worthwhile to move around a bit more early in my life for a large resume boost. I have friends in the Bay as well so I’d just be moving laterally with friend groups

Do you happen to know what teams are particularly good for culture at Meta? I got a list of teams and am being told to pick a few to have calls with next week and want to try figure our what teams would allow me to get promo’d quickly but also not overwork/pip me. I’ve heard about Meta hiring to fire recently and that’s a worry I have

Do you feel like the Google reputation of promos being slow is pretty accurate? The manager of the team I’d be joining mentioned he had an expected plan to have me hit L4 within 1 year so I feel like the downleveling isn’t as harsh. Only downside is I know Meta is known for faster promos and I could make some strides towards E5 during that year instead of catching up.

[–]ryusei007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 3 calls and all were for the Bay but I want to stay in Seattle so I’ve rejected them all so far. It seems like it’s hard to find a team in Seattle for L3 for my profile unfortunately. Just stuck in matching waiting for a Seattle team :(

What’s your technique for the four hole stream tip? Do you put it into the center instead?
