Women, help me understand why this is inspirational
I have an interview scheduled with Google. I've heard that they look for coding skills and googliness in the interviews. Anyone knows what googliness actually means?
Googliness is just being a quirky weirdo that pretends to care about others. Nowadays it's used as corpspeak to guilt you into saving the company money while they cut perks from you and limit raises. Don't worry about being Googley for your interview process. Google's interview process exclusively looks for leetcoders. If you can nail algos, you're in. Even if you're a skeezy incompetent twat.
Username checks out
Jesus you are jaded.
Its corp bullshit. Looking for googliness = can you solve our algo problems?
googliness is called growth mindset and customer obsession at microsoft. it makes people drinking koolaid warm and fuzzy
Isn't that "binginess" at MS?
good one. but seriously, call it whatever you want, it’s bullshit
I interviewed for a marketing/biz role recently and for business interviews it’s about figuring out how you approach teamwork, work cross-functionally, and how you stand out from your peers.
Doesn’t mean anything anymore, though it did use to mean “benevolent nerd”.
“Benovelent nerd” - not my impression during interviews. Even my lunch interviewer mentioned “hey, do they still treat people like shit during interviews?”. Rejecting their offer felt good.
How were you treated like shit? I went through the process and Google was extremely nice and polite. It is long and humiliating but i wouldn't say like shit
Gooleyness is the tendency for your eyes to drift around randomly and occasionally not be connected to each other. That is who Google has excellent optical benefits.
It's what my previous manager used to try to virtue signal constantly
No one at Google knows what googliness is until they want an indescribable excuse to hire (have it), or not hire (don’t have it).
In this context, googliness is synonymous with "having tits".
Haha so that’s what the two Os in the name are for.
If you can't search the interwebs to figure this out, you already failed.
