Maybe, while having high intelligence is necessary to really understand those problems and how to approach them, a lot of the resources around these interviews seem to involve simply memorizing the solutions to the most common problems.
To be fair, these also seem to be targeted towards entry level positions, I can;t say how that strategy would assist someone trying to get in at another level.
- rmk 6y agoYou are asked these things no matter you level in FAANG interviews. You need high enough intelligence to understand how to solve these problems if you are shown a solution, but I do not think you need much more intelligence than that to do well in a FAANG interview. It's more about how fluent you are given that you have already done some prep.
