Synology (the mediocre NAS vendor) is trying to recruit people

The part that is *really telling* is that the recruiter is straight up openly angry with them right now. Apparently every applicant they send is getting rejected with the feedback "they're not passionate enough"

I say telling because I interviewed there about 3 years ago and after going all the way up to the head of the US division of the company, THAT was the feedback I ultimately got (from him!) about why I was rejected
