Got an offer from Google. Will I be eligible to get a refresher in 2023 If I set my start date in December? Another option is January. Recruiter isn't clear about it and says like the process changed and it's now some date next spring. Is it true or bs? old tc: 250 new tc: 370
See bottom comment on this post, answer seems to be that joining in December is by far the right move https://us.teamblind.com/s/sXPkq0kp
Refreshers should be the least of your worries. Many reports of nooglers getting SCI.
What is SCI?
Check out this post! "Are Nooglers being used to fill the 8-16% support check in (SCI) quota? (Tech Industry)" https://us.teamblind.com/s/OEFCezgb
Both levels ?
L5? What’s the YOE?
Yes. 10+
Congrats! Refreshers are given prorated. If you join in January there’ll be no refreshers.
It’s up to your manager and based on your performance. I’d join in December to try to have a full year in before the next ratings. Congrats!
