4 rounds into FAANG interviews, next interview is technical and I was told a junior data scientist would be shadowing my interviewer. Does this mean anything? Do they want the jr to witness a train wreck?

Nope no reflection on the interviewee at all. Re the language just spell out your assumptions, e.g. if you don’t know the specific nuances of a function at least explain what you are assuming. The point is to see your thought process not test your syntax. FB is built on PHP (well our flavor called hack). Most people coming in don’t know it which is why we have boot camp for people who will be using it

Damn at least 5 rounds to interview??

Usually with FAANG you can specify your preferred coding language and they will accommodate.

Looking for some advice; I've been a paralegal for about 5 years now, and the past year or so has been hard. One firm closed, which dropped me in another firm which was never good for me, and then into another with a culture that was really unhealthy to me. My resume shows a few short stays at firms, and now I'm looking at moving after six months due to issues that turned over the entire paralegal team so far except for me. How do I show employers I'm a dedicated worker after a difficult year?

Had my 2nd interview with the hiring manager this past Friday & sent a thank you shortly after. It's now Tuesday (for those who see this on another day). At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.
