As a new CS grad looking to get a job with a FAANG company, it is important to have a solid foundation in several programming languages. The most commonly used programming languages in FAANG companies are Java, Python, and C++, but other languages such as JavaScript, Go, and Ruby are also used.

In terms of programming languages, it's important to have a strong understanding of the fundamentals of computer science and algorithms, rather than just focusing on one language. However, having expertise in one or more specific languages can certainly help your job prospects.

JavaScript is a very popular language, especially for front-end web development, and is used extensively in many FAANG companies. However, it is not the only language used in FAANG companies, and there are many other "sane" languages that are also widely used. For example, Java and Python are both very popular in the backend and data engineering roles at FAANG companies.

Ultimately, the most important thing is to have a strong foundation in computer science and a willingness to learn and adapt to new technologies and programming languages. Employers are often more interested in your ability to learn and solve problems than in your specific language skills.
