I think that's the worst part about Google's hiring practices. You nail the 5 interviews, pass the hiring committee, the executive committee, talk to teams and then someone finally tells you "we don't have any position for you, sorry". A very standardized process isn't always a good thing, not everyone is an interchangeable cog, fresh out of college.
- bogomipz 10y agoI think this is unusual for Google though. I'm not saying it can't happen but I don't think this is the common case.
- hocuspocus 10y agoTrue, their hiring process is data driven (like everything else) so it must be rare. But it's not the first time I hear such story and I'm sure it must leave a pretty bad taste in your mouth. Nothing similar happens in Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple... AFAIK.
