On my search for senior/principal scientist roles, I keep coming across the same Regeneron positions being reposted on the company careers site. I’ve applied to some of them before and got auto-rejected, and now I find myself reapplying again after tailoring my resume, reaching out to people, and doing all the extra work.
At this point, I’m honestly wondering if there’s any point to it. It feels like a huge waste of time, and I can’t tell whether the company is playing some hiring game I don’t understand, or if the HR/recruiting process is just so broken that they can’t actually fill these roles.
These positions usually require a PhD plus years of experience, but I highly doubt the requirements are so impossibly specific that they genuinely can’t find qualified candidates.
Frustrated that I just spent another 30 minutes applying to Regeneron instead of doing something actually productive.
