Hey folks How can I get Referrals for FAANG companies? It is a bit hard to check with people.

I just got laid off about a month ago. It was the biggest blessing because the place was severely dysfunctional. I’ve been in tech for over 12 years and I was told how standard practices were wrong by my colleagues. I’ve been interviewing like crazy and I am getting traction with all of the FAANG companies. These are my dream jobs and I feel like I am getting close to receiving offers soon. They say success comes to those who have something to prove, and I have a LOT to prove to the haters!!

For those who have worked at multiple FAANG companies, what are the biggest differences between them?

Hey fishes, hope you are doing great. I'm a DevOps/sre Engineer, with 12 YOE in the UK. I'm currently working in a Reputed tech company. Not FAANG(Facebook, AWS, apple, Netflix,Google). I would like to pursue my career in these above similar top tech companies. Would like to know your opinions on preparation and what kind of salaries can be expected and is there any WLB.
preparation: I'm sure that I'm bad at datastructures and algos.
Sys Design:ok
But my role has nothing to do with too much SD

How much do you think the government could accomplish if they had the in house development power that FAANG companies do?

I just left Amazon and would like to start applying for other faang companies. Any suggestions on where to start?

Does anyone know if all FAANG companies do background checks for previous employers?

No more FAANG, it’s now MAAMA! wild
(Meta, Amazon, alphabet, Microsoft, apple)

Anyone worked at multiple FAANG companies? I’m trying to choose between 2 and can’t decide.

Hi All, has anyone used a resumé writer and got through to interview at any of the FAANG companies in the US? If so, I’d love a recommendation for the CV writer you have used!

I’m qualified/over qualified for every role I’ve applied for with referrals and getting 0 interviews. Maybe it’s the CV the problem…. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Expecting to make around 100k TC with 2 YOE and an MS in the DC area.
Data scientist, with actual ML experience (not deep learning, but otherwise working deep with the algorithms of classical techniques), not just basic business intelligence.
Is this comp low for non-FAANG companies?

Anyone know what comp and wlb are like at FAANG companies? Is the wlb worse than other industries?

Do any of the FAANG companies sponsor new H1B visas? I am on L1 visa and want to change companies but see no option :(

Where can I learn about different career tracks or levels for FAANG companies to understand career progression? For example which level is equivalent to analyst or entry plus and what are the salary ranges?

Took some CS courses in undergrad, but have been functional in cloud strategy for the past year. Applying to entry level SA position, and worried I don’t have the chops to compete with fresh CS grads. What advice do you have?

I’ve applied to a job I’m qualified for, description is DMV or remote. I’m not in the area but have WFH experience so I messaged the recruiter on LinkedIn who asked for my resume. After sending my resume they say the job has changed to DMV only. I check the job posting on their site and it still says DMV or remote.

I guess I’ll never know…but was that a rejection? 🥲

Also, in general, very annoying to find out after sending resume/reaching out that a job will not be fully remote.

Probably a long shot, but looking to sublet my unfurnished room in a 2BD apartment in Murray Hill (38th & Park) from 8/5-8/31 for $1350. DM me if interested! Thanks! ☺️

Hi All, Am a developer mainly working with SQL and I want to move to AWS (devops), so I started to learn & practice few tools such as terraform, saltstack, prometheus, etc.
But I do not have hands on a live project, any ideas if companies would take in beginners in AWS ? Even though there are cloud projects in my domain it is a bit difficult to get into those projects as my lead & manager give me the standard answer "you're a critical resource for our project" :(
Any advice guys ?
YOE: 4.10

I was put into PIP in my first company. I believed my manager said that it's only for improvement. I signed it. Later realized it's a termination plan. So I quit the company. But after 5 years I got a call from my First company HR for another role, I was happy to take that opportunity. But later HR called me and said they couldn't proceed for some reason. Am I black listed because of PIP? Please share your insights
