          Never heard of Facebook, Google, NVIDIA, Microsoft, Huawei etc etc? At least for internships interviews are heavily cp-reliant and internships are a good way of getting some experience. But you need to be currently enrolled in a university. If you want to go straight to full time offers then cp is still an important factor, however the scope is broader. Anyways, your performance on interviews is more important than your previous job experience. Everybody has to start somewhere, so you can't just get away with "I have no job experience, so nobody will hire me anywhere". Maybe you just don't want such job, but if you think that is a viable option for you then I encourage you to try

              I personally faced a very similar situation for a long time ( in India ), and I've managed to better things for myself somehow.

              I'm 100% sure there would be companies willing to hire you on the basis of you're algorithmic skills, maybe not the ones you want, but they exist ( a lot of them ).

              Spend about 1-1.5 years there ( this is the difficult part) and then move to wherever you want on the basis of that experience.

              The truth is that you have all the cp related skills to get into where you want, but you lack developement experience.

              And any person who is educated enough and in their right mind will tell you that its far easier to develop than be even purple on CF.

              I've been on a lot of hiring committees and usually when people get rejected after breezing through the technical portion of the interview, it's never because they "have no job experience".

              It's almost always because of "culture fit". In other words, they thought you were a fucking asshole. From how you act online, yea I'm not surprised at all.

              I'm guessing what happened was that they gave you standard algo problems and you solved it in 5 mins and had 55 mins to shit talk how easy this stuff is for you. If they can't stand being in a room with you for one hour, you have zero chance of passing no matter how strongly you perform on the actual problem.

              I don't know why I bothered typing out a genuine response to the most well known troll on CF. Maybe I am hoping that this would help you realize that simply being a nicer person would've caused you a lot less misery in life.

              Then you rejected those jobs? You pass an interview by getting offered the next (narrower) round of interviews or a job position. You either passed and said you don't want it, or you got failed = got rejected.
