How many years of experience, and how was the job search experience like ?
1 comments

10+ years of experience. Job search was easy this time around. I marked myself as available to opportunities on LinkedIn and within two weeks my inbox was flooded with opportunities. Most of them were not what I was looking for at all, but a few of them were.

I probably applied to a total of 20 places outside of the companies that reached out to me. Most resulted in some form of auto rejection, but a few turned into recruiter calls or more.

The role I ended up taking at DoorDash was from a recruiter reaching out to me back in August.

Curious: at your level of experience, what is the interview process like? For example, for DoorDash, for a mid or junior, they would do Leetcode style + Systems Deisgn right? Did they do stuff like that for you?
