I've been doing LC everyday, and I have given more than 300 interviews since 2009. Every interview I did decent to great. Some of them are no brainier to get me an offer. But still ended up getting the FUCKING rejection email. The great interviews, I feel these people are rejecting mainly because of their EGO ? or out of their job security ? WHAT EVER. I hate this process. I hate these companies. I started hating computer science. I've been coding / practicing / studying my FUCKING whole life just to get the FUCKING rejections from these EGOISTIC people. I'm not applying through any referrals, I don't have anyone in USA. but I'm genuine. Not faking my resume or experience like the Indian consultancies. So no referral no job ? Then FUCK OFF YOU COMPANIES. Learn from Yahoo, they were No 1 during 1990's. Now there are no more. We all here just temporarily. help each other, help the talent, help genuine people. Otherwise YOU ENDED UP GETTING FAKE PEOPLE IN YOUR COMPANY. I'm Done. I can't give any more interviews. TC: DON'T GIVE A FUCK YOE: USELESS AS SHIT.

'Hindutva': The Radical Hindu Ideology That Seeks to 'Push Christianity Out of India’
Wait. You’ve interviewed with 300 companies and they’ve *all* been rejections?
Since 2009. On and off.
And it’s around. Not exact number. Could be less or more.
But you have a job now right. Worry about things that are in your control dude. Worrying about things that are not is the first step to being miserable . You seem like you have taken many steps.
Thanks for the insight.
I would recommend you to get referrals because indirectly they do have influence on you getting an offer. That's how half of the people are getting into companies these days.
I wanted to genuinely try. Don’t want to get referrals. If i really want to use the backdoor i would have choosen indian consultancies. They would fake my resume for more experience, and fake everything. I don’t want to do that stuff.
Referral isn't a backdoor. How do you think anyone gets jobs, funding, and clients. No one is blindly 'applying' for vc $$ that's all relationship. Same with hiring, it's much easier to hire someone who's known and has a champion to vouch for. Obviously some of this gets thrown out the larger the company, but concept still applies
You have been rejected for over 10 years, and your conclusion is every interviewer is egotistic, and you consider yourself genuine? Also, you are giving up on your career because people who don't know you wouldn't give you recognition? Do you really believe you are good at what you do to deserve an offer?
Thank you for looking in this another way. I’m a top performer in my team every year. I’m not saying everyone is egoistic. Some of them definitely.
You’re not entitled to a job at your dream company. Think about from hiring prospective, how do you narrow down 1000 qualified candidates to 1. If they wanna do tie breakers with leetcode that’s up to them 🤷♂️
They think they are hiring 100% qualified candidates. If it is true why would there be firing / layoffs ? Definitely process is broken, they overlook at referrals, communication, and leadership principles and lot of other BS that HR invented for their existence.
You need to realize those “BS” interview questions help weed out egotistical candidates. I would rather go into work knowing I enjoy the presence of my coworkers than go into work and work with the smartest assholes in the company that make life miserable for everyone around them.
I find your reason for having a mediocre resume not convincing: how is anyone supposed to separate you from dozens of other "genuine" candidates?
Good point though, I see lot of fake people / contractors at FAANG. Don't you think these genuine people deserve those spots ?
Are you applying US jobs from India?
I'm in USA
👏🤣 Let it all out man, just let it out
Yes Amazon. But This is not what we all are studied 25 years for.
You need to realize that luck plays a factor too. Keep trying and eventually u will crack it. Also maybe your age has something to do with it?

It's not just hate. When you study for more than 25+ years still no guaranty for your life what's the point ?
You're right. I'd like to be a colleague with someone like you.
Thank you. Just wanted to vent this out.
Op didn't detect the sarcasm at all, just adds to the humor of this post 🤣
