I recently interviewed at Google for SWE role and failed since I didn’t performed my best . The hiring committee asked me to consider the SETI role . I succeeded landing a SETI offer after taking one more onsite interview . I am pretty sure I did really well for the SETI interview but I really don’t want to do the SETI job , can I ask my recruiter to give me another chance to reinterview for the SWE position ??
Don't join.

Failed SWE and was offered to interview for SETI. Told recruiter to F off
What's SETI
Software Engineer, Tools & Infrastructure
What's the difference? Do SWE only work on product?
Not worth it. Just try sde at other firms and reinterview for goog sde after 1 year
Google folks, is SETI not as prestigious or just because he does not like the job?
You could make big changes to the nature of your job / tech because you want to. Not because someone thought you are good enough only for that. It is like wanting to study at Harvard. Any major. Any course.
You'll need to reinterview for SWE if you want to switch later. That being said you may love the type of work they do-- or not. How familiar are you with the day to day of a SETI?

What is the appeal to NVIDIA?
If you are fascinated by google brand name , U can join and switch later.
I heard it’s so hard to switch from SETI to SWE ?? And at least it takes one year ??
Yep . You need to wait year normally. Personally I would say don’t join if you don’t like the role. It’s tough to keep spirits high in work you don’t like.
