He placed one of my friends a long time ago but then ghosted another really senior person I referred him to. So I was pretty annoyed about that.

Feeling that I never land an offer from Google. I have tried many times and in my last try, I passed phone screening but recruiter ghosted me...
I am not sure what is wrong...
When I apply with referral, my resume always pass screening and shared with managers. But then no response.
When I get feedback on my resume and experience, people always mention "impressive". I feel desperate...Being in less challenging role at Amazon makes everything worse.

I am Finance Analyst. Any suggestions? Ideas
