Why all the downvotes for uber? They reached out to me recently and seemed to have a polite recruiter (didn't reply to him yet). I've dealt with a spectrum of awful-to-fantastic hiring processes and recruiters. I'd do anything to get feedback from those who actually applied to see if they're looking for fits, or just making a boatload of people jump through hoops. Glassdoor seems like the only one, and they a lot of walling/censoring before reviews go up. The other deal is, a large, large place is going to be able to scale the hires to coincide w/ the amount of applicants who apply, give them attention proportionally, etc.. Some of these places have no realistic ability (or intention) to hire a lot of folks, they just want thousands of resumes and only want to let maybe a tiny tiny amount in. It'd be great to get a number of "we're hiring 100 front end developers" or "we have human being who will view your resume to see where you can fit in our company", or give you say a PDF to set your expectations of the hiring process, skills tested and the role your position entails.
