You're insinuating FAANG = ad companies?


We run ads, Sir to quote a certain guy during a recent hearing.

Gold


FAANG = Facebook, Apple, Amazon, N, Google.

Who's 'N'? If it were an 'M', I would imagine Microsoft, but nothing comes to mind except 'Netflix', which I don't consider to be on par with the rest of the group by any means.



As the other commentter pointed out, it's a term from Wall Street.


This acronym makes zero sense and covers companies with wildly different interviewing practices.
