Google eng bar is quite high
Hate to break it to you but pass rate for hiring committee is less than 30% And hiring committee happens AFTER team match. So for those who are waiting to be matched, you DIDNT pass it yet.
Alright
I have never even gotten pass the resume screening stage fml
Why hiring committee after team match? Waste of time for everyone. Recruiter told me no hiring committee now
New process
Is it actually 30% lol. Trying to match with teams now before HC, getting a couple of calls
Why do people even bother? Google is not what it used to be.
I cleared. so it must be above stratosphere!
Did it change recently? I passed the HC a few years ago and the team match was started in parallel. I remember the recruiter told me that it helps to get the positive HC decision if some team gets interested in the candidate, but it was not strictly required. I got a positive decision from HC even though I had not found the team yet. Did not accept the offer though. Facebook was more generous.
A bitter truth you will never hear is that Recruiters are often dumb and they don't collaborate well with HM, And shit doesn't end here, HM then asks the best guys from their team to take interview who doesn't even know how to judge a candidate because they follow just leetcode questions for their evaluation criteria, they don't even ask real time system design/DSA problems
I have passed hiring committee and waiting to get team matched. My team lost headcount and the verbal offer was retracted.
Jk, sorry for the shitty hiring process
fwiw I think Google probably had good intentions with their hiring process but it wasn’t designed for the scale it took in the software industry.
Wait, are you jk / trolling, or serious? HC approval happens after team match?
