If a company is really hiring and paying market rate, what's the situation leading to positions open for over a year? Unicorn-hunting?
I've been part of a hiring process that took a couple months (and by the end had management breathing down our necks to just hire -someone-), but that was because we were hiring into an out-of-the-way location that generally lacked the skills locally that we were looking for. Neither of which would apply to FAANG.
- seanmcdirmid 8y agoThey are just being picky, and can afford to be picky. I’ve heard FAANG interview pass rates are pretty low, frustrating their recruiters to no end :).
- zid3nt 8y agoMaybe they're willing to hire in depth for those particular positions?
- ido 8y agoThe company I work at has an ad for "Senior Full-Stack Developer" and if 5 amazing candidates show up they'll probably hire all of them (or if just 1 shows up and gets hired the ad will remain online).
- GoToRO 8y agoHR just leaves the same position open because it's not really a position, it's a category and they are too lazy to remove and add the same ad over and over.
