I would doubt this. amazon, google, etc were already hiring aggressively all over the world before covid. WFH does not really increase their recruitment base; the bottleneck is the pipeline itself and the entire world's supply of engineers that can solve leetcode problems.
- Clubber 5y agoA lot of people who can solve leetcode problems don't want to move to the west coast for a cornucopia of reasons. I don't know how much that will open the market, but it might have at least a minor impact.
