How Big Tech Judges Interview Performance Differently
At a lot of companies, you can just get the right solution and pass. This will often not be the case with Big Tech interviews.
Communication is much more important at Big Tech companies as there's more stakeholders on everything
Try not to be silent for 5+ minutes at a time during the interview. Regularly be explaining your thought process
Massive companies like Meta and Microsoft will have very custom technology, so it doesn't really matter what you're currently experienced in
Because of this, Big Tech companies generally let you code in whatever language you want
It's possible to get the sub-optimal solution or a slightly incomplete solution and still pass the interview if your communication is very strong
