Is this auto filtering happening at the senior level for FAANG? Amazon keeps reaching out to me (a junior who already failed one of their interviews) on LinkedIn. Google did as well at one point.
If I am somehow worth personal attention as a not terribly impressively pedigreed and inexperienced developer, are they really dumping seniors through crappy filtering software and missing them there?
- ArnoVW 5y agoThe stakes are lower. As a CTO (hypothetically) I get to hire 4 junior devs, 2 senior, and 1 architect. Hire the wrong junior? No biggy, he'll be less effecient but we may yet turn him around. Anyway, I get three more tries. Anyway, he'll leave after 2 years. They always do. Hire the wrong architect? I'm stuck with him, for a very long time. Moreover, I now have the wrong guy for a high-impact job. And one that is very visible. So you betcha I'm going to be much more picky, the more senior the job becomes.
