Absolutely not. We've worked with people of all ages and backgrounds, many without a formal CS background. So having no open-source contributions is totally fine.
Things to improve changes
- Find people to refer you. This pretty much guarantees an interview.
- Prepare for the technical interview. This does take time, but it's a really good investment. Websites like Leetcode are really good. If you can Leetcode medium's in 30 minutes, you're golden.
- Get people to mock interview you. This is something we make a HUGE emphasis on in CodeBreakers.
- NeverFade 7y agoBesides Leetcode, are there any other websites that would be at the top of your recommendation list for preparing candidates?
- govg 7y agoYou can use archives like the ones you find in Hackerrank / SPOJ, or participate in contests run by Codeforces / Codechef.
- christiansakai 7y agoGoogle recruiter reached out to me for a role in MV. I said I’d like for an NYC position. I forward my resume to him and he said he’ll forward it to NYC team. After that no reply from him. I followed up and he said they decided not to move forward. Then 2 months later I got someone to refer me at Google. I applied. The applications get stuck for 2 months now and still pending. No phone, no email, nothing from Google whatsoever. Can you tell me what happened? Did I get shadowbanned by Google?
