You can have the perfect resume, killer portfolio, a Master's degree from MIT, and ace every technical question like you invented the language itself. But none of that matters if your buddy from college works at the company. Nepotism beats merit every single time in the hiring game. Your friend probably got hired because his roommate's cousin knew the CTO, and now he's your golden ticket past the ATS black hole and the 47 rounds of interviews. The tech industry loves to preach meritocracy while running on a network of "I know a guy who knows a guy." Your LinkedIn connections are worth more than your LeetCode streak.
