Technical Program Manager (Staff Level) - FAANG Interview Preparation Guide

The FAANG interview process for Staff-level TPM roles typically consists of 5-6 rounds conducted over 4-6 weeks. The process progresses from initial screening through multiple technical and behavioral assessments, with increasing complexity and scope. Each round evaluates specific competencies aligned with the five core pillars of TPM evaluation: program execution, technical depth, stakeholder leadership, communication, and cultural values. The interview culminates in a bar raiser round where a senior leader conducts a comprehensive assessment across all dimensions.
