This is an example of survivorship bias. I think you need to consider the fact that Netflix has massive employee churn compared to its peers.

One of the reasons no doubt they're constantly pestering me on LinkedIn to interview with them even though they have just 2100 employees or so. They're running out of people who will actually listen to them.

Facebook, on the other hand, has 5700 employees and I've never heard from them even though my resume is definitely suited to their needs. Why? They don't have to. People want to work at Facebook. They don't have to recruit.
