Thanks, what about the management and leadership side? Do they test candidates on project management and people skills? If so, do you have any idea how to prepare for that?

[algodaily]

I've heard the standard leadership and management questions, like:

- How would you describe your style of management?

- Give me an example when you had a problem with an out-performer.

- What would you do to keep an out-performer motivated?

- Describe a time when you took the lead on a project.

- Tell me about a time when you took ownership of a project.

- Why did you do this?

- What was the result of you taking the challenge? What could have happened if you did not take ownership?

You can find all the standard ones and how to pepare at: https://algodaily.com/lessons/beyond-the-whiteboard-the-most...

Thank you! Do you have any resources that help understand what Google (FANG companies in general) mean when they ask candidates about their ability to "deal with ambiguity"?

Yeah, they have sessions for culture fit that they call the "Googley" or "Googleyness" interview. You can find content on Google itself, of course.
