You're not supposed to ask brainteaser or trivia type questions as a Google interviewer anymore.
But yea I agree with the rest of your post. Also another factor beyond confidentiality is that you can't hire people from other companies through that pipeline, cus they won't do it.
Also worth noting that for certain classes of engineers (new grads), Google does sort of hire people as contractors (though they're full-time with benefits), see the eng residency program.
- pjlegato 10y agoEr. I actually said that they don't use brainteasers anymore in the post.
- dmoy 10y agoYes, hence the OR. You're not really supposed to use cs trivia style questions either. Both are deprecated. It will take awhile for interviewers to catch up though... I suppose I should have capitalized the OR

- dmoy 10y agoYes sorry, my sentence scans better with a capital 'OR'
