Google rejects man 39 times, hires him on his 40th attempt

There’s nothing like getting your dream job, but should you stop trying if you get rejected? Well, a lot of us might, but this man from San Francisco did not stop trying even when he was rejected by Google 39 times. Now that is the kind of determination and grit you need to succeed in life. He has shared the screenshot of his communication with Google on his Linkedin account. Tyler Cohen worked as an Associate Manager - Strategy & Ops at DoorDash before getting a job at DoorDash.

“There's a fine line between perseverance and insanity. I'm still trying to figure out which one I have.39 rejections, 1 acceptance,” Cohen captioned his picture. His post has now gone viral on social media.


Cohen’s screenshot reveals that he first applied to Google in 2019 and finally landed a job three years later after multiple attempts. Linkedin users congratulated Cohen for bagging the opportunity and some even recalled their own experiences with big tech companies. One user wrote that he applied to Amazon over 120+ times and then landed a position in the company.


Another user joked that he has never heard of a man asking his girlfriend 40 times whether she would marry him. He then went on to ask why makes a job at a company so special?
