My 2c, with all humility. But, I'm not sure you really understand why recruiters and companies are not taking you. For any serious business where it's senior managers or founders doing the recruiting, they are not after the "unicorn guys/gals".
My suggestion is to ask for feedback when you get rejected, most people will be happy to give it to you.
- sequoia 6y agoSadly your last point is incorrect. Most interviewers will not give any feedback because there’s no upside for the company and a strong chance of pissing the candidate off, making them feel they were treated unfairly or engendering resentment toward the company, or causing them to want to start negotiating or arguing, which is essentially wasted time. If you don’t believe me, start giving rejected candidates feedback and I think you’ll quickly see what I mean. It’s not fair but that’s been my experience.
