I applied online on job postings at Databricks and Snowflake career website but got an email saying they are looking at other candidates. I am wondering if applying on the company website is a good idea going forward? Or does contacting a recruiter or getting a referral increase my odds? YOE: 9 TC: 260k
I applied on snowflake website and got the interview.
DB reached out to me and I accepted an offer. Snowflake I applied direct and heard nothing. I did apply direct to Stripe and they hit me up for interviews. Really depends in this market.
Sorry, but those are probably two of the most competitive companies you could possibly apply to so they’re not the best sample.

nothing against you or your ability or marketability. i’m mostly saying “don’t beat yourself up over it”.
