5 years ago, after struggling to land offers at FAANG companies, I started interviewing engineers who had successfully navigated the big tech interview process. My goal was to understand what it really takes to stand out and secure offers at the best companies.

I shared these insights online as a side project, and over time, it grew into a business—Onsites.fyi.

For the last 5 years, I’ve been collecting data from candidates about their interview experiences: companies they interviewed with, difficulty ratings, types of questions asked, time to offer, and more.

I’ve now built this into a searchable, sortable, filterable database so job seekers can get real insights into the onsite interview process at FAANG companies.

I wanted to get HN’s opinion on the tool, and if you find the data / information useful? Also, would love to hear what other data points you think we should be collecting, or features we should add!

The tool is built with Next, Postgres database and it’s hosted on Vercel.
