Tech companies are famous for coddling their workers but after mass layoffs the industry's culture has shifted. Engineers say that getting hired can require days of work on unpaid assignments.
The hiring process for FAANG-level tech companies has confused me even when things were “going well”. Anything more than 4-5 rounds of interviews of any type (screening call, video response, homework, remote live interview or in-person interview) seems excessive to me. My tech worker friends seemed to suggest this was the norm.
