That's so confusing for students and new graduates. I would imagine a large number of students aren't applying for those jobs because they think the jobs require more experience than they do, shrinking the talent pool from which companies draw.
- mattnewton 9y agoThe numbers aren't advertised that way, and also Google is inverted in that you apply to Google and then after meeting a hiring bar for a level they match you with a specific role.
- sn9 9y agoRight they aren't advertised that way, but they can certainly be interpreted that way. There's rarely any sort of explanation of the numbering system in job posts. I don't think it's unreasonable to assume that a III requires more experience than a I or II.
- mattnewton 9y agoBy not advertised I mean it simply isn't in the job posting. You apply to google and they talk to you during be process about the level. https://careers.google.com/jobs#!t=jo&jid=/google/software-engineer-1600-amphitheatre-pkwy-mountain-view-ca-6540009&f=true& https://careers.google.com/jobs#!t=jo&jid=/google/software-e... https://careers.google.com/how-we-hire/?&src=Online/House%20Ads/AdSitelinks_BKWS&gclid=Cj0KCQjwn6DMBRC0ARIsAHZtCePRM94rfPqKfZZELw5yneA7wWQA0LFRXC-ieljNB2okq1xlY37LKDIaAm0kEALw_wcB https://careers.google.com/how-we-hire/?&src=Online/House%20...
- sn9 9y agoYes but I haven't been talking about just Google, and I have been talking about applying in the first place. My point was that some people may not apply, thinking that those jobs require more experience than they do. Think entry-level vs. junior.
