Hi everyone, After a mixed experience as desktop dev and even some devops I restarted my career as FE web dev (now 3 YoE, I'd say 80/20 FE/BE), dropped everything non-web from my resume and profile and now looking for referrals. I bombed Amazon onsite, unfortunately, even made a post about giving up, checked other posts about people failing 20+ times and moved on. Shamelessly DMed people from other threads about referrals. Got referrals for Meta, Paypal, Twillio (excluded those from tags), looking for more if possible as my DM counter now reset. TC: 100k (in CA next to Bay Area, huh) YoE: 3? LC: Blind 75, Digging through/refreshing on DDIA (wildboar), SDI, CTCE #referral #google #netflix #airbnb #stripe #apple #snap #linkedin #microsoft #square #twitter #uber #spotify #lyft #pinterest #airtable #roblox #salesforce #doordash #zillow #splunk #tiktok #instacart #databricks #snowflake #datadog #roku #figma #cruise #stitchfix #chime #slack #coinbase #bytedance #brex #affirm #upstart #bettermortgage #lendingclub #carta #twitch #zoom #compass #mercari #discord #lattice #scaleai #box #reddit #twilio #okta #lime #wish #dataminr #patreon #kraken #binance #yelp #unqork #gopuff #plaid #nuro #rubrik #notion #moveworks #flexport #outreach #netskope #ramp #coda #wework #ripple #rivian #snowflake #splunk #stripe #spotify #tableau #twitch #twitter #tusimple #twosigma #uber #verkada #wayfair #waymo #wish #workday #yandex #yelp #zendesk #zillow #zoom
nothing shameful about asking for referrals
Thanks! I was seeing "asking for referrals" like "begging for a chance" so I could get all chances I can, but I should change how I see that then
