Isn't there a selection bias here? The average tech company that has stayed in business since 2015 presumably grew quite a bit and can now be choosier.

also a publisher bias - they want you to pay them for their interview prep

#6Source is unclear. Self-reported by candidates? Huge bias then, since people may or may not want to say whether they got / didn't get an offer, and whether they accepted / rejected an offer, and this split may vary by company and by year very significantly.

The article talks about how larger, well-known companies are pickier. Google was at 21% the whole time, Microsoft at mid 30s. This sounds right to me (note these are not just engineering roles).

Most big tech companies like Google, Meta, Amazon comprise like 80 to 90% of all the tech jobs so it's still representative of the big names that I think everyone knows

Why would it change by year? I get it could happen by company if some companies are much more secretive than others but not sure why it would change year over year.

I’ve been interviewing in big tech for nearly 8 years. I’ve not tracked but hires are far fewer compared to rejections.
