Have a FAANG interview in 1 hour, not nervous at all ... Already have one offer in hand. Is it normal? I wanted to go to FAANG so badly until recently I got rejected by Google, cleared my head and now I don't even care anymore.

No, I was the same way, I have done 7 loops over the last 10 years, the first 2 were a no, and after that, I don't care and interview much better. I assume I am not getting the job so no pressure. Companies with offers were Amazon (3), Microsoft (2) google was a no both times, and to be honest that was a very good thing, google isn't nearly as good as it was 7-10 years ago.

Hi fishes,
I was selected for a l3 role via IJP in the 1st week of may and the hiring manager informed me via email that i had been selected for the role and requested confirmation to proceed with offer letter generation. I didn't hear anything from HM after that. When can I expect to receive an internal offer letter? Should I contact HM to know about the status ? Please provide some insights. TIA :)

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter?

Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

Hi everyone,

I appeared in L2 round of Capgemini recently.
Just after the intro first question they asked me " Do you have any offer and amount?" This question was asked in technical round.
I'm sure that guy wasn't a Manager.

I don't think he know how to take an interview.

Even after creating 2 asked program and answering 80% of their questions correctly.
Got rejected.
Didn't expect this kind of L2 round from Capgemini.
