Does interview across alphabet (Google, DeepMind, Waymo) affect one another?

Aug 27, 2021 23 Comments

Had recruiters from Google, DeepMind and Waymo reached out in the last few months for MLE type positions.

Does interview with one company say DeepMind or Waymo affect the other? Will rejection from DeepMind cause a 1 year ban on Google job application?

    They do not. They’re separate entities

      You can keep your WMUs and options for 4 years.

      Yea, you can do that. That is an option given to you when you leave. The other one is immediate liquidation subject to terms of the next liquidation event (of which there has only been one for options only and not WMUs). The option you gave is basically the same thing except delayed by four years where neither you nor Waymo can touch it.

      Neither of those options yield equity in the company to hold long, both result in cash. Have fun paying income tax on that!

    I can see every resume, application, and interview feedback for what you applied for at Google, but I can't see anything about what you did at the rest of Alphabet.

      Can any Googler see it or is it because you are at a high level position? For example, does the hiring committee look at feedback from previous onsites?

    Deepmind recruiter told me they don't share feedback across companies, but do share compensation packages across alphabet to make sure they don't compete with each other.

      They use the same MRP, but they don’t share comp information with each other when negotiating. Each company would want to give the best offer to close the candidate.
