Hi all, I interviewed with Google about 10 business days ago for a Product Manager role, and I learned from the recruiter that my packet will be sent to hiring committee. My recruiter did not give me feedback on performance and asked if there were internal references to provide more supportive feedback. Is it a bad sign that I haven’t gotten feedback? That I’m going to hiring committee before team match? Also, how should I treat the internal references? I know 10-15 people at Google from professional and personal endeavors. Who should I pick? Only those I’ve worked with professionally? Or anyone who might have something nice to say about me? TY! #pm #product #productmanager #Google #interview #hiring
Hey op I am also waiting for the next steps. In my case my recruiter reached out 2 days after on-site, but didn’t hear any updates afterwards, it’s been a week…
What did they provide to you when they reached out?
Did you get any feedback on how you did? It sounds like hiring committee is once a week, and I am scheduled for next week’s HC

Based on your recruiter's actions, you are doing pretty well. Internal references is something better to have, but definitely not required. So don't worry too much about it. Some recruiters keep their mouth shut and others don't, it's just a preference. If you want to pick the internal references, go with the following ranking: 1. How well you trust them to provide a positive feedback. 2. Level, the higher the better. 3. How familiar they are with your work If you are not 120% sure if they will write a positive feedback for you, you may just want to dodge the potential bullet. Feel free to DM me if you got more question. I am quite familiar with PM recruiting process.
This is so helpful, thanks a ton for all of the feedback 🙏
Hey @Google, could you please DM me? I’m out of DMs and could really use your help!
Hi sorry I can’t answer your question but would love to know how long it took for you to hear back from the recruiter after your phone interview with a PM before the final loop :)
It took a few days, I think less than a week
Thank you!
