I got an update from my recruiter that the 2 people ahead of me will be done this week, so I'm going to match next week. 5 months of waiting is finally over. This is Bay Area L3 SWE. TC 170k Yoe 1
Wait what? Your team matching has nothing to do with other people on interviewing loop right? Or do you mean if the recruiter has other people to match before you, you have to wait until they match? That sounds wrong.
I believe it means other people under that recruiter. I was actually told this in the beginning, right after I passed HC.
Is 170 your offer with Google
No, current TC
5 months from passing interview to having a team to join?
Did you have hiring committee approval 5 months back or recently?
As per his timeline, its 5 months back. Its either his performance was not on par or his recruiter has preferred others as he had a hint that this person would join G no matter how long it takes.
Yeah it was 5 months ago that I passed HC. I actually accepted another offer. Not sure why it's taken this long, I doubt it's due to interview performance because I aced 4/5 rounds.
Fuck G! This is ridiculous.
Location? Yoe? Level?
