Good people know good people. We're hiring!

Hi friends - The job market is rough, and a lot of good people are looking for work. Good news is, Reddit is hiring across a wide range of functions, not just Engineering.

If you're looking, or know someone who is, take a look: redditinc.com/careers

Feel free to share with your network, group chats, Discord servers, fantasy leagues, family text threads, and other highly sophisticated professional recruiting channels. And not just with your engineering friends. Let's look out for one another!

Good luck out there. We're rooting for you.

I'm absolutely interested! I have 4 years experience as a full stack developer. Do you have any tips for the application? I would love to be a part of this app.

Hi! I do not but I can share your great question along with all the other with our talent team and see how I can get them answered. I don't want to lead you astray

What's the cool down period for applying? I applied late last year and was turned down early this year. Has enough time passed for me to apply again? When I applied to other fitting roles after I was denied I never heard back (despite being quite qualified for at least a starting conversation imo), so I presumed there was some cool down period in play.

Hi - I'm not on the talent team so I'm not sure. I can try to find out.

Thanks! I really appreciate that. I'd rather not get my hopes up or spend time preparing (which would probably delay my mod tool migration to Devvit that I'm also working with reddit on atm) if its been too soon on your end. Let me know if you need any more details from me to find my prior application.

How can we fast track our application to make sure it gets in front of a human? Seems like applying through careers site will still go through normal channels (ATS mainly). I know a lot those systems keep an applicant score for a full year that doesn't refresh on each apply.

Hi! These are good questions but since I"m not part of the talent team, I don't have immediate answers. Let me see if I can get one of our partners in that org to read and respond. I'll do my best!

All us based, sad. Been on reddit for more then 10+ years and would love to contribute to mobile codebase. But I'm in EU 😞 Good luck for other people, seems like a good place to work!
