Out of curiosity, what skills or experience are your recruiters optimizing for while reviewing resumes?

Having a decade of experience and nearly 100% match with a fullstack job description (even down to microservices/event-driven systems) and getting a rejection without even a screening call means I either presented myself poorly or there's something else they're looking for that might not be advertised (or emphasized). In either of those situations, I would appreciate even a hint so I could improve my odds in the future, because rejections are getting tiring.

That's... interesting.

Does being a "trending project in-network" mean they received money from Mozilla?

Owns, yes. That is radically different from "funds", though.

Not going to dispute anything about executive structure or Baker's compensation and (mis)management, but a lot of people here are acting like donations either go directly to the corporation or funnel to it through the actual recipient of the donations, but there isn't really any evidence being presented.

Which ones? Eich donated like $1000 to a political group that (I would hope) most of us disagree with, but Eich != Mozilla, and he was removed because of the backlash

Donations go to Mozilla "the non-profit organization" rather than Mozilla "the corporation".

Mozilla (the corporation) has the typical/bad corporate structures and ridiculous executive compensations. Mozilla (the corporation) had the layoffs. Mozilla (the corporation) bought Pocket with money that comes from deals with search engines.

That being said, though...

> Donate to smaller developers of software you use, it'll go a lot further, and they'll probably put it to better use!

... is still a great point.

(Updated this because "Mozilla, Org" and "Mozilla, Inc" were inaccurate)
