Yes, network and apply online etc, but how can someone from outside a company find and apply to teams working on specific, challenging problems ? How do you guys go about looking for jobs (let’s assume you don’t have a large network to fall back on) ? Do you find job descriptions descriptive enough ? Do you ask the recruiter or interviewer ? Do you see a product and twitter stalk someone working on it until you find someone who can give you any info ? How often do you network with recruiters ? Should this be 4 different posts ? Ok I’ll stop now. Thanks.
Easy: 1. Go to FAANG.com/careers 2. Apply to as many positions as possible 3. Get rejected. 4. Go back to your mediocre life and struggle with crippling depression. 5. Repeat every 6 months or so.
Well aren’t you a pocket full of sunshine. Let’s call this Plan B.
