This seems to basically be true for any well paying ( > $200K) job at any of the better paying tech companies in the US. It’s all about the passing the algorithm coding interviews.
- imnotreallynew 4y agoI don’t believe that’s true. There a number of large, well funded “startups” that don’t do the traditional algorithm based interviews but still pay at or above that range.
- scarface74 4y agoSo what are these startups and do they pay in the range of these companies. https://www.levels.fyi/2020/ https://www.levels.fyi/2020/

As someone who's been involved in hiring for these companies - it's more accurate to say that for all but the most exceptional candidates, a decent score on the algorithms interview is necessary but not sufficient. I've seen fairly similar performances in technical interviews result in offers for mid-level (~$350k), senior (~$500k), or staff (~$700k) based on experience and the behavioral interview.
