I'm pissed about the tech world recruiting culture. I hate hate hate Amazon and Google and all the other faggy DEI slave conglomerates. This morning I set up an interview with an Amazon recruiter. It's Dec 26th at 10AM. Why isn't she on vacation? Anyway, my body didn't fully wake up and I'm recovering from a cold but I'm like "OK let's do this."

I ask her about the testing process and what is the threshold for these DS&A tests do. If you're not familiar with tech testing it's like give you some problems you might have found in a college course, strictly academic and unrealistic because nobody fucking does that on their day job. In no other industry that I can think of are people asked to do ridiculous shit like this.

I'm not gonna spend a month of my life training up to pass a bullshit test without any real prospect of a job and it's certainly not motivating to go work more than 40 hours a week surrounded by PIP dodging, back stabbing lying 'jeets that have each other's back. You ever think how many jeets end up working at Amazon but other companies aren't flooded with them? They want desperate optionless, childless workers that think about work 24/7. They will always fire the bottom 15% no matter what. They have layoffs in the tens of thousands and somehow keep job applications open. Do they have real jobs or are they just collecting data?

She couldn't tell me what roles there were on what teams or anything. She just wanted me to waste my time and take this stupid test and then maybe maybe there's something else, but she couldn't say. Amazon wastes everybody's time by immediately giving a test to anyone that applies for a job. You worked in the industry for 10 years? Doesn't matter because you're treated like a bottom of the barrel lying pajeet. Of course the pajeets they cheat, It's not hard to cheat on these tests and now with AI it's trivial, so it's not like they filter out much, it's a waste of time.

They have no clue how to interview people, they just rely on a bullshit book written by diversity hire female, Cracking the coding interview by Gayle Laakmann McDowell. That bitch did more to damage tech culture than anyone. Like the dumb recruiter said, they need to filter people out on some criteria. In my opinion this criteria might as well be how many jumping jacks you can do.

I'd rather spend my time learning real tools, building real things, things that may one day create a profit for me. I may get a job at Amazon but I know it won't last and I would be looking to GTFO ASAP because their culture is shit, the co-workers are literally shit, the hours are long and they don't allow hybrid either. You get good money but abandon your life entirely and then you burn out, every single time.
