Hi Blind, I’m currently searching for a new SWE role in the NYC area, and have been having trouble getting responses from cold applying with my resume despite positive feedback from Rooftopslushie resume reviews. I guess the market is still not that great for junior engineers at the moment :( I’m looking for referrals so at least I can get my foot in the door, any help would be greatly appreciated!! About me: 2.5 YOE , Been preparing for ~5 months, solved ~225 LC questions, and I have begun studying system design interview questions. My current WLB (60+ hours and weekends) has led me to mental distress and burnout, so I am shooting for companies with better WLB reputations, specifically these below: #square #stripe #atlassian #chime #mongodb #plaid #twitter #salesforce #google #linkedin #paypal #confluent #databricks #squarespace #ebay #dropbox #lyft #coinbase #adobe #shopify #slack #cisco #spotify #pandora #roblox #mathworks #booking #peloton #vmware #vimeo

I’m a junior SWE at Zillow and I’ve found a lot more balance/time for other projects than in my CS program at school :) Ik it wasn’t on your list but feel free to dm if you’d like a referral
Hello, can I also dm you for referral?
I can help with the LinkedIn referral. You can email me with this info: up to 3 desired job postings, your resume, your LinkedIn profile and a third-person intro of yourself. My email: linkedinreferrals@gmail.com (Other folks are also welcome if interested. But note that I cannot refer new grads, interns, non-engineering or non-US positions)

Message recruiters and HMs at companies you want to work for. That’s how I got my interviews at Apple, Facebook, Spotify, and some start ups
How did you pinpoint HM?
