does this mean im on that black list? with a referral i am rejected again. no clue why. it was a for a entry level sales engineering position too edit1: can someone check if im on the blacklist? im so confused
Referral just means some human will look at your resume. Doesn't mean they'll give you a phone screen.
It’s reduced to that because of abuse. Referrals used to carry a lot of weight.
I think they still do if someone significant gives a referral
Are you currently a sales engineer?
No, but my contact who referred me said people got in without previous experience
Sure, there are other factors such as how they thought the previous experience was related and how many spots they need to fill. Point being a referral is not a sureshot interview opportunity.
I checked. You are on the list
lol! Can you check for me? 🤣🤣
Yeah, you are on the list too
What kind of blacklist is it? Can anybody explain?
Like a whitelist but darker

Principal Software Engineer TC~300K at Microsoft vs 600K at Meta. Is 300k pretty low for Principal scope?
Referrals don’t mean what they used to. Blind and rooftopslushie have completely ruined and discredited referrals for everyone.
I think you’re right
