Last year I interviewed for a customer solutions engineer role at Google. Apparently, my first 3 technical rounds went well but after the fourth round with the manager, things didn't go very well. They perhaps thought that I lacked some customer facing skills and I also don't have any prior customer facing experience either. I sent several emails to the recruiter afterwards to get a chance for some other opportunity at Google but he stopped replying. Now, it's been almost a year and I'm wondering if it would be helpful to send an email with my resume to the hiring manager again, by guessing his email id, even though I'm not in touch with him or don't know him personally. Would this be taken as a sign of interest or unnecessarily annoying email?
Sounds quite stalkish.
Yeah, that's why I wonder if it would be better to just wait.
No it’s not, that’s how you get ahead. Keep asking questions OP, persistence pays off
Would do it.
I would not. Very creepy.
Oh my god. So many red flags. If the recruiter didn’t reply, then that means we’re no longer interested in you. Simple as that. Try applying at other companies. Your post shows you lack professionalism and can’t take a hint. The fact that you are asking people on Blind about trying to guess a hiring manager’s email address so that you can spam him with your resume shows that you lack good judgement as well.
Didn't find that position anywhere else. Apparently, no one sells ads like Google. The thing is that it's not so much about the recruiter liking me or profile but the hiring manager liking it or not. The interview questions he asked me were trivial, not very technical or complicated but something I wasn't prepared for or expecting at all, so think that another attempt may go better. Since it's a customer facing sales job and contacting customers periodically by digging there information from anywhere is what some sales people do, I'm not clear whether this kind of pitching would be seen as positive or negative. The hint as per my last conversation with the recruiter was that I may be more ready for the role after some time and time has passed since then, so should not I be re-attempting? I'm not asking people to guess the email address, I'm asking whether directly contacting the manager be of any help.
Forget about that HM. Ask someone for a referral on Blind.
Well as a data point for you, when I was a hiring mgr at my previous company I did not ever read any of the resumes that people managed to directly email me nor did I ever phone screen any of the people who randomly contacted me via LinkedIn saying they wanted a job. (My li profile was not one of the ones saying “we’re hiring blah blah blah”)
But you or any other hiring manager wouldn't be offended if someone sent an email with their resume for a job opportunity, right? No harm in sending it across?
Just drop it. Managers might talk with each other and see you as a creepy stalker. I know it’s tempting but try a referral instead. If you did well, someone will contact you to re-interview.

It doesn't hurt to try but I think Google's policy is that after one year you can try for the same position and there won't be any questions about it so assuming that you were picked for the first three rounds of the interviews you may have a very good chance of being picked again and this time not necessarily your hiring manager would be the same one order recruiter so you may be facing a completely different decision maker which may workouts to your favor.
Yeah, I have been applying on the Google career website but not getting any response on my application. So thinking of sending an email .
