From a recruiter email: "Please target top tier companies like Google, Apple, Walmart, Oracle, Amazon, Tesla, Deloitte, Accenture, etc." List feels a bit off the wall. Blind's thoughts?
No love for start ups? Seems ill advised
The variance in quality for startup SWEs is high. So while youāll find great ones there, youāll have to go through more candidates to get a hire
Accenture/Deloitte as top tier? B tier consulting, C tier devs šššššš
This might be true for ops type people?
You need to educate that recruiter about FAANGMULLA
This is clearly a noob recruiter. No albatross on the list
What did you ask the recruiter for him to send this list?
Didn't. Was part of the cold call email. My suspicion is that they were directions given to the recruiter by FB and they just copy pasta'd them into the email. Given that the position also said "local candidates only", my suspicion is that this particular recruiter wasn't big on directions (or critical thinking).
When did Deloitte and Accenture become top tier ;) :D
Excuse me, Oracle??
Lots of very good IC engineers here and a massive enterprise sales org
OP, what were they recruiting for?
We can't get people from there. Too expensive
Accenture is code for Albertsons
