Yeah and even getting into FAANG is often about gaming the interview system anyway. I don’t think FAANG really manages to select the top 1% of hard workers.

- wtetzner 3y agoHow do you game the interview system? Practice leetcode problems a lot? Sounds like a lot of work.
- dasil003 3y agoYes, and interviewing in general. You think that’s a lot of work to get your foot in the door and $500k+ in a relatively cushy salaried position and top tech brand name on your resume?
- wtetzner 3y agoYou also need to do multiple system design interviews. Yes, you might be able to game it, but I doubt you could game it and still be an incompetent programmer. You also wouldn't be able to keep that job very long, given the way performance reviews tend to be done. They probably don't have the top 1% of hard workers, but getting and staying there almost certainly requires a certain amount of hard work.
