Recently I have been continuously seeing linkedin posts of people getting into Google. Seems like google has lowered its hiring bar and taking everyone in. Thoughts?? Yoe: 2.5 Tc: 42 lpa
Not low enough, I am still not in 😎
Yeah Google lowered it's bar in India as they need more man power for new projects.
One of my friends told me that they are hiring people mainly for integrating bank apis with Google Pay
@ION that is not true. The required head count has gone up because Google is opening a new office in India. They have started many new teams in India. Regarding hiring they are now open to downlevel and hire candidates who would have otherwise not made it( mostly L3). Hiring bar for a particular level has not changed.
2.5 yoe? 42 LPA in bangalore? Which domain please? You from IIT? Give us some tips 🙏
Yeah OP, give us some tips. Which company do you work for?
MNCs are paying close to that range these days for 3 yoe
Pretty sure hiring bar is still in the same ballpark, but everyone and everybody is getting interviews.
Are you ion trading?
Yep. My packet went to HC and was rejected. The recruiter said that she is going to file an appeal, whatever that means. To me it sounds like a mechanism for HMs to lower the bar. I have a team matching call with the director tomorrow. I don't care either way since I got a fairly good offer from MS.
Yes. Negotiate more. Once u are in - forget raise.
+1
@Hwswcs why do you say so? Google gives you good stock refreshers right?
Due to more headcount in BLR, everyone is getting called for interviews. Maybe relatively more people are getting in. Not sure of the bar.
I hear they snatched a new dev center — that we were supposed to buy. So if not already lowered it will to fill the seats in blr
Yes
