I passed interviews (L5) in Google and now I'm in the Team Matching phase. My goal is to move in Zurich. Some time ago I read that hiring is pretty slow because of COVID, but now I see that Google constantly updates their vacancies there. Still I haven't been contacted yet. What are the chances to get there in near future? Thank you!
No
Maybe
So
Based on what my recruiter was telling me and my team matching experience, finding a position in Zurich at the moment is very difficult. I interviewed in Sept and went straight to team matching (before HC). I was holding out for a positon in Zurich (and Munich) for more than 4 months and I got 0 match calls. Then my recruiter asked me if I am willing to try Warsaw. After I said yes, I was matched with multiple teams within a week. Based on what he told me Zurich and Munich have very little headcount at the moment because of COVID and the few positions that exist are usually filled by internal candidates. If you would only consider Zurich then be prepared for a long wait. Have you cleared Hiring Committee yet? Or went straight to team match also?
Yes, I passed the Hiring Committee. But I don't think I want to move in Warsaw. I'll be waiting then 😊
Have you got a match yet? Or even a call?
Yes
