I'm a pretty solid Sr/staff engineer who's contributed to open source projects, created some, have published apps with thousands of users (not concurrently lol). I don't think anyone's ever even looked at my resume let alone ask me to do the phone screen. Is there a hotness requirement, I'm not hitting? Do they only like short guys?
There's hiring freeze across🤷♂️
Lol admire your devotion .
Well at this point it's become a matter of principle... I've applied to countless positions over the past couple of years, the only thing I can imagine is maybe no offices in the southeast and they don't want to pay for reloc?
with that list of accomplishments , you might be too good
Yea I think we afraid you be bored, (can’t speak for the hiring decisions) but generally speaking , I don’t see too many of those archetypes around here. depends which team you assigned to , there’s a lot of executors or doers to grind out what needs to be done.
Haha I guess that makes sense, I still feel like you're totally messing with me though
Op pm me. I went through something similar and now have top offers.
It's not you, the problem is them. you are too good for them, so they are scared to contact you.
Nah not messing, you can do your own validation, linked in search engineering employees, check the credentials
That's actually a good idea
Not that we don’t have great talent. I’d say there’s two categories, work hard and go home, or the ones that want to change the world. Just overall Paypal is more on the conservative side than those engineers you find at a fang. More bank than say the engineering pool you find at stripe , younger Berkeley crowd who. Prob cares more that you had your own startup
How many pages do you have on your resume?
2
With many big old companies like PayPal it's often harder to get discovered without some luck. Try other platforms like Hired or contact those managers with "I'm hiring" in their title who is looking for someone with your experience .
