I got a G offer but there seems to be a number of hurdles in the immigration process to my designated locatio (unusual background but nothing criminal on my side). It looks like at best, the visa process will be prolonged by about 6-8 months. Would Google be willing to place me in a country where I can get visa easily or they will cancel my offer right away?
It could happen for roles with limited headcount — if they find another suitable candidate and that candidate is able to start work sooner than you can then that’s a no brainer for the company. Usually, six months is too long for Google to wait unless there are lots of openings around the world for that role or you have a very specialized skill-set.
