Contracted Company Wants To Hire Me, Looking for Some Help! /u/inthebinary CSCQ protests reddit

Hey everyone! I have a situation that I’d love to get some insight on.

I am an engineer with nearly a decade of experience. I am an average dev but very personable and have found success more on my soft skills than deep engineering knowledge – this will come into play later.

I am currently employed at “Company X” and through Company X I have been contracted out to “Company Y” for the past 1.5 years or so.

Now, Company Y is a big name company, not FAANG but close – most people use their product.

Here is my situation: My manager at Company Y wants to hire me on – I’ve done good work for them and have only been given positive reviews from said manager who has a solid amount of pull so it’s not totally unexpected, but my concern is about the actual interview process.

I havent done leetcode style questions in nearly a decade and would never attempt to interview at Company Y normally as I would basically be guaranteed to fail these rounds without months of grinding.

Do you think that given the fact that I have been doing the actual job well for a good chunk of time already that these would basically be formalities?

This would be a life-changing role from a salary perspective and I am not sure if I’m just anxious and overthinking it or if there is a real concern that I blow this all up in my face.

If anyone has faced similar or has any insight I’d really appreciate it!
