Need referral for Zoom .
I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.
I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.
Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.

Hi Guyz,
Any one from IBM ?
I went through the entire recruitment process and got selected for IBM ISL. Now I am being told by the HR that they are unable to release offer as there is a hiring freeze.
Can any one please tell me if its correct or just an excuse not to give me offer. If its true, when will this freeze be removed?

Honestly you’ve gotta know someone. Otherwise you’ll get lost in the pile. Work your contacts.
Yes they hire through referrals
Hiring through referrals is best but doesn’t mean people don’t get through. Also, Ivy League degrees can help, yes, but not a prerequisite
Worth it. Referrals help, but NOT mandatory. Not sure where this rumor got started or why it persists. You also do not need an Ivy League degree. Suggest you look at your resume and adjust it to be very concise and outcome focused. What did you do? Why did you do it? What outcome did it have? It’s a great place to work.
+1 to what Google 1 said.
Get a referral if you can. Ensures your application is reviewed. Cold applying risks your application not being seen - it's a numbers game.
Definitely worth it. Great salary, benefits, stock, rewards for high performance, culture and smart and NICE (mostly) ppl. Not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but it is a great place to work.
My advice would be to research and prep yourself for your interviews. Really think about why YOU for that role, research all aspects of the job and product(s) you'll be working with. Be clear on the impact you've driven. Google loves impact!
Good luck!
