&gt; The &quot;big tech&quot; companies know this and do not care. They have people who want to work there lined up out the door.<p>Also importantly, the big companies seem to purposefully have a short memory to help counteract this. The chances you even interview in the same <i>division</i> are relatively low, much less with the same team. So why not let people try again and again and again? If they really are good, they&#x27;ll eventually find a fit and get in.
