- H1B recruiting
- Legal/government requirement
- Corporate requirement
- Headcount justification, and more.
This is why "applying" by talking to recruiters and hiring managers directly and having them guide you through the application process is significantly more efficient.
Agreed, and I'd like to give credit where it's due. Earlier this week I talked with an nVidia recruiter, and I swear it was like having a concierge service for their application / interview process.
To anyone considering applying there, I guess try whatever OP did to get a recruiter, because applying on their site is a waste of your time and won't even get you a form email back.
I got 3 interviews. The hiring managers were nice, but they just had so many other applicants to choose from that I never made it past the first interview.
- organizations needing to appear successful and growing through job listings (but they're not growing, quite the opposite)
- misleading competitors as to what your direction/stack is or might soon be
- creating a file of possible candidates for a spot that might exist in the future
