If you work for FAANG or some other big tech company:

Do referrals actually mean anything? Seen a lot of conflicting info on this, with some saying it makes sure an actual human looks at your application, while others say it makes no difference at all.

I'm talking about referrals from managers I actually know, not low level employees selling em on LinkedIn or something.
