i think basically they look at the companies listed and think "this person has a shot at passing our leetcode style interviews" rather than can this person's experience contribute to our organization in a meaningful way. Essentially, most engineers at most companies are just replaceable cogs. I'm going through interviews with FAANG right now and boy, it's so scripted, you have leetcode questions tagged with the company so you grind those and hope to see those in an interview, there are "behavior" type questions which are tagged so you prep for those and give a regurgitated answer which you think will win you approval rather than an authentic answer. The sad part about all this is that it works, but it also leaves one feeling dead inside.
