Hi fishies! Are there any recruiters from Facebook (Meta) who would be kind enough to review my resume and give me some feedback? From my perspective I’m a candidate for some of the roles I’ve recently applied for and also have experience as a contingent worker there and would like some honest feedback so I can reassess and reapply. Thanks so much in advance!

Delaying interviews at one of the hottest firms is very bad tactic. They may find someone else.
If you can shake the rust off quickly, rushing is the move.
If they close that new round at $900B+ while you’re still "prepping," your RSU strike price is going to skyrocket. Getting your offer letter in now while they’re likely still pegged to the $380B valuation from February is basically a guaranteed on-paper gain before you even start.
Being a bit underprepared for the onsite is a much smaller risk than missing that valuation window. Cram and get in there.
If anything there’s probably a long list of applicants waiting to interview. You should rush at the risk of them hiring someone else first and foremost
Thanks for all of the advice. My understanding of how this usually works is that each equity grant has to be approved by the Board after the person starts the job. That can happen on the start date or maybe even weeks later. The offer letter typically has a target dollar amount for RSUs over four years, and the denominator used to calculate the number of RSUs the employee actually receives is based on the 409A valuation of the company on the grant date when the Board votes to approve.
While it seems no term sheets have been signed yet for the new round, my understanding is that sometimes a company pauses grant issuance when they're deep into a fundraise and then approves all new grants once the funding round is finalized. I also understand that sometimes even between rounds a 409A valuation can be updated if material changes have occurred in the business (such as Ant's exponential ARR growth or the fact that they've received multiple offers valuing them at much more than $380B). All this to say there might not be much of a gap between the current 409A and where Ant lands in this latest funding round.
If anyone has any visibility here it would be really helpful. Please feel free to DM me if preferred. Thanks in advance.
Sr. Counsel 1, your reply is very helpful. Thank you for it. And definitely noted on the biases, that is an excellent point. So to summarize your take on the RSUs, you think it's unlikely Ant is still issuing RSUs based on a $380B valuation at this point given what we're reading in the news about the new round coming together at $900B+? You think it is more likely than not that the cutoff has already happened given that they are in negotiations for the new round?
Congratulations firstly. Nice one. Please can you let me know how one gets a interview at Anthropic?
Thank you

Thanks for walking us through your experience. For the interviews, could you please share more on what does it take for the resume to be shortlisted? Or was it through a referral?
