If you struggle, it'll be a struggle everyday once you get into one of those corporations. Listen to yourself.

- ThrowawayR2 6y ago+1 to this. Given what the original poster has said, they are probably going to get ground to bits even if they do get into a FAANG. It requires both raw technical ability and considerable social and political skills to survive because everybody there is jockeying to climb to the next level. A number of the FAANGs are also ruthless about culling people who aren't succeeding, at least until a certain promotion level is reached.
- drewg123 6y agoNo. Not really. I suck at all these FAANG interview questions. I think I barely passed my Google interview. And I still got promoted L5->L6 after only 2 years at Google. I think that 99% of the interview questions are overkill and don't reflect the actual demands of the job, or the metrics by which you'll be measured. If you're a hard worker, a team player, and write decent code, you'll probably be fine once you get your foot in the door. And yes, having Google on your resume opens doors.
- ecnerwala 6y agoI agree with the above comment and disagree with posters saying that the OP will struggle in a FANG. (They may indeed struggle, but that is not a certainty ;) Answering interview questions correctly within a short time frame is the hardest part - actual work is way easier for the most part.
