      Google is your best bet. You're acclimating yourself into the environment for 1 year, you also get an opportunity to expand your knowledge for longer. Money is great but this feels like a long term vs. short term benefit. Also, on the recruitment end, if Google doesn't work out after the year, you're more likely to be taken in by another org (or FB) because you spent so long there. Recruiters ask for YOE/year in an environment before they get to the TC. Either way, congratulations on your prospects! Hope you have fun wherever you go.

    You know Google does not make contractors full-time unless a position opens and you have similar title skills. Most likely contracts positions are never a full-time. Whats the role?
