I'm waiting for my Google rejection after the onsite, didn't go past manager screening at Facebook and Apple neither contacted me even though I had a referral. (Never tried at netflix, had an on-site at Amazon years ago and I'd happily reapply again but I donts see relevant opportunities for me). What should I try now? I'm fine with startups and scale-ups with a decent team. Also don't mind 50+ hrs/week. Non-swe, based in Bay area, 8+ yoe.
IBM
He's just kidding, IBM is a dead end π
Even my long term mentor who is a director level at IBM resided to refer me cause is not a good move for a new grad
Adobe
Cisco, salesforce
Do you help with referral?
Leetcode up and try again later.
He said non-swe. What do you do at Amazon? I have an onsite coming up.
Be prepared to talk a lot. LPs π€―
Check out Forbes cloud 100 list. Pick any company there, join them, and wait for them to go IPO. Profit
Is the Forbes Cloud 100 list reputable?
Do you trust Forbes? If you do, then yes.

Why not safeway?
How do you fail Amazon ?
It was maybe 6 years ago, I was out of a visa and had maybe 30 days left legally in the country. Also I felt I did ask for higher comp. Interview wasn't hard at all though.
Non FAANG
How much lc did you do?
Microsoft
I applied online. Didn't get call. Recruiter contacted me this year for hiring event and ghosted. Does microsoft hire only oncampus and referrals?
Iβm apply for internal transfer and going through the same struggle. Lmk what you find out π
