No luck hearing back for a data analyst role at Google

I am a data analyst at a tech company. Have been trying to get a call back from Google for over a year and a half with no luck. My skills include SQL, Tableau, Python, excel. Any tips or pointers would be really appreciated. TC: 140K #data #dataanalytics

Have you tried getting a referral?

Deloitte blah_noob OP Oct 8, 2020

I did, with referral without referral, nothing seems to work.

Imo, market is inundated with analytics grads. I can only image every single one of them applying to google. So if you belong to the general pool, very hard to get a call. Good luck!

Any ideas on how to separate oneself?

Get work experience from a reputable tech company. I rarely got call backs when I only had start up experience

Get tier 1 companies on your resume. Even if contract.

Deloitte blah_noob OP Oct 8, 2020

Can you define tier 1 companies?

FAANG+ MSFT Uber LinkedIn and so on.

Are you taking any steps to make sure your profile stands out?

I redid my linkedin profile and am having a professional review my resume. Other than that, I really don’t know what else to do. I’m even sending out LI messages to google recruiters, but they don’t respond

Definitely get out of Deloitte. Try for eBay or some other similar company to get a better name on your resume.

Deloitte blah_noob OP Oct 30, 2020

I don’t work for Deloitte. I work for a well reputed tech firm

What is that reputed tech firm?

Why just target Google?

Deloitte blah_noob OP Oct 30, 2020

It’s kind of a dream company in my case. It’s crazy how they never call.

LinkedIn blind&anon Oct 30, 2020

I can understand. My suggestion would be to reach out to Mangers and recruiters on LinkedIn. Besides, also considering other companies, that have roles based on your exp and that pay like google

Rack up experience from worthwhile companies. When I had another FAANG they responded more often.

Deloitte blah_noob OP Oct 31, 2020

Okay. You mean just FAANG?

Pinterest chuchuu Oct 31, 2020

FAANG does help but other eye catching companies would work too like Airbnb, Uber, Lyft, Snap, Slack, etc.

Not sure how getting good names on the resume works. I have eBay, Walmart labs, Apple internship , and Olacabs on my resume(All in India) and I got rejected for Google positions for which I applied via referrals :) YOE: 5.5 In same boat, I guess :/
