Our S recently accepted a full-time position that starts in 2021. But I have to drop a brag on the success he had during the process.
He interviewed with 6 companies (4 west coast, 2 east coast) and handled the multiple code tests and behavioral interviews with maturity and poise enough so that he received 6 offers!
After closer examination of the job specifics he narrowed it down to two offers (both on west coast) and entered negotiations on the pay packages (both included base pay, yearly bonus, equity, signing bonus, 401k, and health). Both moved north on the pay packages and both very close to the same overall.
In the end he chose a very innovative Silicon Valley company where he’ll be doing the work he loves in a location he loves. Bravo son!
