I have worked 30+ years in software / system engineering. His speech is still very inspiring. Those big 4 companies and other high tech companies tend to hire newly graduate students, who have higher successful rates to pass those academic questions. In my 15+ software development experience, I don't deal with algorithms as much, but other environmental, tools, packaging issues. So, the mid/late career software engineers actually have a harder time to pass those academic coding interviews. Not that we are not good programmers, but the experience often didn't get considered in those first step academic 45 min interviews.

Good Talk! He makes a very important point: treat interview prep not as a prep for interviews only, treat it as prep for your professional life. This will be your job! People often just study coding questions before interviews hoping to make it in. Let's say you got lucky and got in with that prep, what happens next? You need to prove your worth everyday for the rest of your career to stay at whatever company you got in and to move to better companies. It has to be a regular part of your life. The athlete analogy was perfect.

You have inspired me. It is my vision to work at the Big Four Software Engineering companies, to contribute to the technological development of human civilization. From this day onward, this is my main goal, and I will do whatever I need to go there. I have recognized that it is possible for me to get a job at the Big Four. It's not something which is unattainable. You just have to commit to it and work hard. That's it.

1 thing people need to realize is that you can intern at these companies without majoring in CS.

It's awesome, but it's a bit different here in the UK. I have worked in the United States and had job offers which are way easier to get than in the U.K. Recruitment Process for Amazon in the UK: 1. Online Application + Cover Letter + 3 questions with 300 words each 2. Online Tests (Numerical, Analytical, Business Reasoning) 3. Telephone Interview 4. On-site Visit (Not an interview) 5. Interview 6. Offer That's it

I have watched the complete video. But I accurately know the answer to the question. Improve your topcoder-github-kaggle performances and try to befriend/impress the present employees of such tech companies to get referral to get a job. Simple. All the other ways to get jobs at such companies are super long and super uncertain. All the printed papers like school and college degrees have lost their value in the computer engineering industry.

He mentions how interns get paid $8,000-$9,000 per month, but forgets to talk about how rent in some locations is over $3,000 a month for a 300-500sq ft apartment.

Many top companies provide housing stipends in SF/Bay area. Although they don't cover the complete cost (usually around $1500-$2000 a month), it definitely helps a lot.

I didn't know that. That would be a good deal then. Even $1000 housing assistance would be pretty helpful.

I think Google's process is pretty different from Amazon's. Source: I went all the way through Google's process, including the day of 5 45-minute interviews. I spoke with friends who went through Amazon's interview process. Also, the differences are made clear in Cracking The Coding Interview, which is a very popular book written by an engineer who did many interviews, both as an interviewer and as an interviewee.

I watched this video about 6 months ago. I have interviews with Google and Amazon at the moment. It was really inspirational, now I have a week to study LC and hopefully land one of them. Also, I have a 2.5 gpa and no experience prior to last semester. But I got a research volunteer spot, then another part time data analyst spot and here I am. So, just work hard guys
