Silicon Valley is not their main HQ, so it sometimes gets a little neglected. You're not going to get filthy rich working for MS, as they're not a startup. Sometimes, you can feel like a small cog in a big machine.
Be very cognizant of the toll Full Stack engineering takes on people's personal lives. DRI duty is stressful, even when there are no incidents. Doing that for years and years takes a psychological toll and makes you think, "I have to get away from this." DRI should be done in tours, with loooooong breaks between.
Typical FAANG interview. 4 parts, each with 1 technical question and 1 behavioral question. 1 system design question, 3 coding questions that target different things: * Requirement definition * Trade-offs in solution * A problem where the challenge
Based on the recruiter's email, I was expecting the conversation to include questions around my C++ coding skills and prior experience relevant to the role, and LeetCode-style coding in C++. However, the discussion only focused on the hiring manager
Three Data Science and Algorithm rounds were there. In each round, two questions of medium complexity were asked. After discussing the solution, I was asked to write the program. It was fine to use dummy code.
