Working at Amazon since over a year now. Applied through referral at 3 different locations across the U.S for Software Engineer role , got rejected 2 days later. Could there be something wrong with my applications or is Google in general turning down applicants?
One thing I have noticed is, they need references. Unless you have a strong reference, however good you are it does not work out. This is not just with Google
Can you define "strong reference"?
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what do you mean by references? Planning on having a buddy refer me to G soon, so I’d like to know.
Yeah i had 2 references. Both were rejected.
That's sad
just reach out to the recruiters on linkedin
Will try, thanks
Very strange. I thought they are willing to interview pretty much anyone. And you work for Amazon!
I thought so too 😔
It took me a year of submitting resumes to get an interview
Lol and I am from a no name company being chased by a G recruiter.
You must be very special 🙃
Yeah looks like it 😂. It's mostly luck who they'll think is a good candidate
Lol ok
A LinkedIn profile basically.... not sure what’s wrong
Have that ...
Let's see it
