Suit. What's their culture

like

I had company ask me to come in business casuals few yrs back

What company? I would default to business professional until offer for the sake of first impressions

You're never out of place in a suit, I don't feel that a tie is required

Simply ask the recruiter. They'll tell you honestly.

Depends on industry & culture. I agree with asking the recruiter.

Just don't look like a bum. All the recruiter. I interview people all the time and rarely see full suit and tie.

Advice, please!A local, well established firm is seeking me out. I was upfront that I was not looking but because he was persistent and this could be something I’m interested in for the future, I had a sit down with him. At the end, he said the ball was in my court and he would love for me to go through a formal interview. The firm seems great, but my current position is 100% remote and fits perfectly into my schedule. Do I interview even though I wouldn’t consider changing until next year?!

Reading through some possible interview questions for FAANG. One of the ones I've seen on Glassdoor are to design a basic architecture structure for something like Netflix or Twitter or Spotify. I've been researching online using AWS or GCP (still learning all the moving parts of architecture). Any advice on how the setup would be? I'm assuming you'd start with some Load Balancers. For Netflix maybe have different different APIs for signing up vs scrolling through possible movies?

They have asked me to prepare for the client interview. Such as data structures and algorithms.

Not sure if I should look for other offer considering the job security.

I have one offer from reputed product company with the same pay. Should I consider this?

Help much appreciated.
