A few days and youâll forget.
I feel ya. Happens to everyone. :(
LinkedIn is awesome. Why do you want to join GCP? It's behind AWS, Azure, and even IBM.
Even more reason to join imho. Google needs a cloud for themselves anyway, they aren't gonna use AWS and Azure. And it's Google, they'll make a better product than AWS and Azure. Which means an explosive growth is guaranteed in GCP.
Azure is shit, you know that.
It stings like a b*tch for the first week and I started hating the GBus every time I saw it on my way to work ... but things donât always go as per plan. Remember this pain and let it fuel your next attempt ( if you plan too) G is a dream, and dreams are not easy.
Been there. I know the feeling. Just because you werenât a fit for the role this time doesnât mean youâre not a good PM.
Thank you, it really sends you for a spin when it's fresh.
Yeah, I know. It sucks. Something to remember is that as structured as companies try to make it, the interviewing process is noisy af. Especially for product management (where responsibilities and skills often span the arc of a project), itâs a hard thing to gauge someoneâs abilities in 45 minutes. That means, especially for competitive roles, that there can be a lot of false negatives. And sometimes youâre having an off day, sometimes your interviewerâs having an off day, sometimes your strengths just donât align with the strengths that they need right now. Iâve been rejected by companies before, and gotten offers from those same companies later. So donât take it too hard.
Lol we should have a Google reject support group. I feel ya OP!
Can someone do the needful and create this group? I need it badly.
Any insights into why?
Google is one of the harder interviews but there seems to be a random element to how you are perceived during interviews. Iâve had two people Iâve mentored get hired there but they rejected me recently so that stings too. Study hard and practice and hit them again in a year.
How was the interview loop ? All algo ?
Was going for product.
What do you mean by product .. ? Not for SWE?
