I am a DevOps/SRE with 5 YOE. I applied online for a DevOps role at CRWD & got rejected after 2 days. What does CRWD want? I met like 90% of the requirements. I would rather get ghosted than rejected
The entitlement.
Might be weird to say but sometimes Amazon on profile carries a negative weight. Not always the case but when openings are limited like now in employers market, HMs get very selective. Probably that or ur resume didn’t align regardless of what u think.
It's also common, especially in the current market, to have a pile of 90%+ aligned candidates. You may just not have been the best/cheapest/coolest one this time.
Good lord the ego on this guy
Pretty sure most of our DevOps job postings (which are very much real) get like 2-300 applicants within like a week or 2 (based on my experience as the Lead on my team doing 1st round interviews while my manager was out)...and frankly a good portion of resumes fit most of the skills on the JD. But if you'd rather be ghosted than rejected that's fine.
How is the interview for DevOps roles?
Match the job description 100%. Managers not willing to risk candidates with potential. They want sure shots. Just my opinion.
There have been preferences for Europeans or Canadians over Americans for cost reasons in my team. Maybe similar issue?

I saw the HM post the job on LinkedIn... could it be resume farming?
No, you just didn’t win the game this time. Someone is in fact getting hired, it’s just not you.
