The perks are unbeatable. There are intern activities like a carnival, a baseball game, an Arcade Fire concert, a 5K run, and plenty more.

The culture tries to maintain a startup feeling, but ends up being very corporate. There is heavy emphasis on secrecy around the campus, and there are a lot of internal tools to learn before you can really become very productive. Because all three meals and so many activities are available on campus, the work-life balance becomes hard to maintain, and you end up working much more than 40 hours per week.
First, an online assessment, then the HR call, then several rounds of technical interview (you need to solve data structure/algorithm problems), and finally a manager interview (mostly behavioral questions).
LeetCode basically doesn't care about experience or brains. LeetCode is kinda weird, though. But what can you expect from FAANG besides that? Just save your time and energy and apply to a real software company.
The first round was behavioral, focusing on STAR method-type questions. They mostly asked about being a team player and having a positive attitude. This was followed by three LeetCode rounds. Two medium and one medium-hard question were asked durin
