Hey guys, Just got resume rejected by Meta which is super disappointing :(. Even applied with a referral but I think all that does is just expedite the decision. I’m wondering when I can apply in the future? Is it a 6 month wait? The problem is…in 6 months I’ll actually have 1 year of swe experience since I’ve been working FT for half a year now. So should I just wait to get to the 2 year of experience mark and apply for E4? No point in applying at 1 yeo right? Cause it’s that awkward time in which I’m too experienced for new grad but not experienced enough for mid-level? Also, any tips to enhance my resume? I’m sure having Infosys on there (and no relevant swe internships) didn’t help my chances too much :/. I also only had one independent projects on there that isn’t super impressive. Should I try to develop and then put like 2-3 solid projects on my resume? Only thing keeping me from not being too sad is that I have an upcoming Amazon final, but it’s basically my last chance to break into faang (since the Google hiring freeze) , so just looking for any way to improve and learn from this. Thanks!! Edit: meant E4…..which I heard is possible with 2-3 YEO. The resume reject was for a new grad position. I have only 6 months of work experience rn
Review your resume with someone in FAANG…And pls don’t use infosys standard template resume…that’s the worst resume template in the world.. Btw, which role?
Lol they sent me an Email asked a few questions And i never heard back. 👻 Dont take it so hard. Revise, learn, and Move on.
Google hiring freeze? Is that because you didn't get the offer after interviewing or is Google just not hiring ATM?
Referral never doesn't guarantee a call. Ultimately, it's the resume that helps to break the ice in the first step atleast. Since its a reject in the first step, I think yoy can keep applying for other positions.
Definitely apply for E5 with 2yoe
You in Infosys?
Why E5 at 2 years? You could wait another year and apply director level positions at 3
From Infosys to Director at Meta
Wait….2 years of Exp and E5?? I think you can try for E6 or M1…you are very close..
is resume rejection a big deal? do u just apply for one position per company?
