so i ended my goog pm journey.. the recruiter wont give any feedback after the onsite and after chasing her for sometime she basically said the analytical round interviewer sunk me. the rest 4 were fine. i dont know specifically what he didnt like and so dont know what to improve - but thats that. apparently this person feedback countered the good feedback i had from others..

i know it can be a black box and this is my second try at goog. i was well prepared snd ready this time. i am not sure i have the energy to wait another year and reapply and maybe again miss this close..

for folks here who have made it in multiple tries i am curious what you did in the interim and how did you go about it..

anything helps. thanks

    GE -> Google is a big jump. Try going to tier 2 or 3 first

    OP
    I have 20 YoE across several multinationals. I don’t need to undersell myself. Goog questions don’t need you to be in tier 1 company to answer. There is a lot of luck etc involved as well. There are several GE folks in goog.

    I did many many mocks and months of prep going in. Everyone can improve but I think I was ready. Again anything can happen to sink your chances..

    My interest in posting the question was to understand how people prepared for multiple attempts.

      Do they ask “how many cops in US” type of insane questions? What skills do they look for? For PM’s, asking how would you build a product is a good question to ask and estimations can also be tested by asking “design YouTube” and then guiding them in direction of capacity/network bandwidth/qps etc.

    How many YoE? How do you know you were prepared?
