This guide is based on general FAANG interview practices and may not reflect specific company procedures.
Entry-level game developer interviews at FAANG companies typically span 4-5 rounds conducted over 2-3 weeks. The process emphasizes foundational coding skills, game development fundamentals, problem-solving ability, and cultural fit. Candidates are expected to demonstrate competency in core programming concepts, understanding of game development workflows, and ability to learn and adapt to new technologies. The interview process tests both technical depth and learning potential, as entry-level candidates are not expected to have extensive production experience.
