How to actually get hired at Vaxcyte
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
Vaxcyte runs an applicant tracking system (Greenhouse), but hiring managers still work referrals first. A cold application to Vaxcyte isn't dead, it's just fourth in line behind internal referrals, sourced candidates and recruiter pipelines.
Who to contact at Vaxcyte
No verified contact route for Vaxcyte yet. Expect the hiring manager for the team that's hiring to make the call, but treat this as a model, not confirmed data.

Mistakes that kill Vaxcyte applications
Don't send the same CV you sent everywhere else. Whoever reads applications at Vaxcyte can tell, and it's the fastest rejection there is.
Don't open with what you want. Open with what Vaxcyte is dealing with right now — is growing, and what you'd do about it.
The wait-and-hope strategy fails. Follow up on day five — response rates roughly double.
