My experience at FAANG is that if you get a "no hire" vote, then unless several other reviewers are "strong hire" the candidate doesn't even make it to a committee and is already rejected - and this was before 2022.

that's not what i said - i said "if we hire, then he reads".

And my point is that if you write "no hire" than the candidate doesn't proceed and thus no one generally reads the feedback.
