I've been rejected twice by Google's executive committee at offer review stage (pre-review), all within the same hiring loop: - once because they felt I should be higher level. Did more interviews and passed them. - second time because I don't have enough ML knowledge for the role. Interestingly, team match was done before the first exec review so the committee had a chance to reject me for the lack of ML knowledge that time as well. Instead, they let me go through another loop only to reject me again for something that was known from the moment I had a team matched. At this point, I'm pretty confused on what's really going on, as it seems someone really doesn't want me at Google even though I did well during interviews and passed HC both times. Recruiter is offering one last shot with another team but he doesn't seem to confident it will work out. What could be the reasons for getting rejected twice even after good interview feedback and what can I do to pass the executive pre-review (although it doesn't seem it's up to me)?
Man, this is like college entrance exam, they just pick people they like rather than the most affordable or earliest applicants for the role.
Try another team which has different execs.
I thought exec review is one group of people for the whole company. If that's not the case then I might stand a chance. I will definitely pick another group but I'm not aware of Google's org structure so I'm able to pick a team with different execs.
The recruiter will help
The same happened to me. Were you able to figure out why they rejected? Recruiter gave me pretty vague answers
Pm me I had that happen once
I had the same thing happen to me How can I prevent this the next time around?
