Lol yes that should always be fine. I would just tell your team ASAP that you had scheduled a vacation prior to hire.

Do it. Nobody will care

Yes, that’s plenty of time. Take a look at the vacation policy when you start next week, which outlines how much notice to give depending on the length of vacation. Also add the vacation to your schedule since your experience manager will be looking at that to line up your first project (if not already booked). You’ll be fine 😊 welcome to the firm!

Recruiter won't know who to pass the info on to anyway.

Yes of course.

Yes of course. Stick to your plans. When you’re starting just inform your manager & it won’t be a problem I’m sure.

Yup. Once you get staffed on a project just immediately notify your project team of your planed time off

Yes. Nobody cares — best part about EY.

Tell them now

I have a Microsoft onsite interview coming up for an SDE1/2 role. Any tips from current employees or people who took the interview before on how I can prepare for this? I have been doing top leetcode questions for the technical portion but I am not sure how hard the questions can be and how they pick their questions. Also not sure what kind of systems design high level questions/answers they're looking for.
