They're also still recruiting
- metadat 4y agoJust because a job gets posted doesn't mean it is actually available to be filled. The barrier to posting jobs to LinkedIn is extremely low. Don't let yourself be fooled into a false sense of confidence, you'd really need to test the process out to see if it yields an offer!
- dqpb 4y agoI don't mean jobs posted
- makoz 4y agoData point of one and all but I chatted with a Meta recruiter a month ago and asked specifically about the hiring freeze that was on-going at the time. They mentioned they were still hiring for more senior engineers so YMMV.
- metadat 4y agoRecruiters' whole primary job is to recruit, and they don't get a lot of top secret information about what's coming next, either. It's in their best interest to always say they are hiring, otherwise why are they even employed by Señor Zuckerberg? They don't get a two month vacation during a hiring freeze. And yeah, if you are top, top egghead talent it's possible there is always at job for you at Meta. It might just save that recruiters job if they source you and you pan out. Think about it like this: earlier this year the bar to get an offer was that you need to be hot, like a 6/10 before. In this new climate, you need to be more like a 9.5/10 to make it through their little hiring game. With that said.. Don't let some random on the Internet stop or discourage you; go get that job if you are up to the task and actually want to work at Meta! Have fun.. yeah. My original comment was more about the non-Bigco job postings, a lot of times they may just be testing the waters to see what they can dredge up. If it looks appealing, they might bite. It's mostly a huge waste of time for the poor candidates, though.
