Please stop with all this "I survived the Google/Facebook interview process" for god sake. These type of comments are written by an HR employee or an Evangelist promoting the company. There are some amazing Engineers working in those companies, but some mediocre ones as well. Believe me, I worked with a lot of them. Apple, on the other hand, is an exception. They are all outstanding.
My advice: Develop your curiosity. Be adventurous. Travel around the world and learn about other cultures. Then, find a company where you are happy, the smaller the better.
- nostrademons 10y agoIt's pretty topical for the question asked here, which explicitly said that he would like to work at Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc. and that he was terrified of the Google interview process.
- Rachine 10y agoThis is definitely the way to go, the learning curve is steep following your advice!
- ma2rten 10y agoDid you even the read the question and my post (specifically the last point)? Before joining Google now, I traveled though South East Asia for 1 1/2 years while freelancing and worked for a startup for 2 1/2 years. I wouldn't recommend it unconditionally, nor would I recommend working at Google unconditionally.
