Agreed, it's also a waste of my time to do a bunch of research, figure out of I'm a "fit", customize a resume, go through the onerous application process (already have to do this) to just be rejected by the HR world filter or something else asinine.
I could use that time to apply to more companies instead, or to do a leetcode problem and stand a chance at passing an interview. Or just to watch an episode of Bob's Burgers, that would be time better spent lol.
- JohnBooty 4y agoI think parent poster's intent is that you like... do all of that stuff, except then skip HR and the leetcode shuffle. And then presumably you... I don't know, show up outside of the CTO's house one morning? Or something? Email them directly and hope a spam filter doesn't block you? Hire a skywriter? And ask for a job? The "you just have to network! don't be a sheeple!" folks are always vague on that part. I have gotten jobs through networking. Most of them! It happens! It's just sort of unrealistic and glib to assume it always is possible.
