Can Faang ever stop asking DSA in the Interview?

Some people are under the impression that FAANG started asking DSA as part of their interviews during COVID. This is a misconception, I know someone who got into FB way back in 2012 from campus recruitment, it was mostly DSA even back then.

Every university has DSA as part of their Btech curriculum, I think asking those problems is fair.

So I’m engaged in an interview process for a top FinTech company. It started the 1st week of August and just now I’ve gotten word from my recruiter that they didn’t update on any decisions made. I had my 3rd & final interview last Friday. My recruiter doesn’t communicate well nor does she let me communicate with the company direct. May I being led on? Am I still in the race for this role in your opinion with the details stated. Please message me if you would like to know more in detail.

Hi Fishes

I gave google silicon interview all 4 rounds 3+ months back, from then they are saying they want to hire me but headcount approval is not yet received.
Last week they said, lets go for one more round and finalize immediately. That interview also went very good.
Post that they didn't call back itself, they have stopped responding also.

Has anybody faced this issue? This I feel completely unprofessional and not really expected from Google.

Thanks
