> either I fail at the very beginning stages (CV review or first 2 interviews), or get to the end (offer stage). I can echo this, same experience here and ended up landing a nice role at a big company while being rejected for objectively worse roles at tiny companies and startups. For the last round of applications, I applied to 10-15 companies, only got an interview with 2 and got an offer from both (and both raised their offers to counter the other).
