I wonder if his lack of CV (of any kind), no matter how much he studied was what made recruiters discard him right away.
You can learn a lot in a year, but you can't create a CV containing a career that may look attractive.
(Google process is pretty much optimised to quickly discard applications)
- RawData 10y agoThe guy has an awesome CV and 15+ years experience as a self-employed developer/entrepreneur...
- iplaw 10y agoAnd applying for an entry-level development position. He is not lacking in hubris, so imagine the managerial nightmare he'd likely impose for a collection of non-managers.
- jaimebuelta 10y agoI've checked his CV in LinkedIn and he certainly has an interesting CV, but not necessarily a strong one for a software engineer in a big company. I have no idea about how recruiters select profiles in Google, but maybe having an strong background as entrepreneur is a red flag ("he'll leave the company for his own project!"); or maybe the lack of bachelor degree... (or maybe pure ageism) I can't say I agree, clearly spending that much time shows a lot of passion, but Google tends to have pretty harsh and silly selection process, where a silly small thing or mistake gets you rejected.
