I'm at a big law firm in NYC. I'd love an in house position at a tech company, but I've heard Apple, Google, and Facebook only hire from the West Coast law firms. The only lawyer from my firm at those companies went through a coding bootcamp and is now a Google engineer. Amazon is the exception and seems to hire from a variety of firms. Can anyone confirm this? Is it even worth applying?

Amazon is the only major outlier--they hire from outside Seattle because not many locals want to work for that culture.
Also most hire only from the internal recommendations pool. As a new Yorker you're just at a huge disadvantage.
