On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being reserved only for individuals who are wiretapping Google's offices, what is your degree of certainty that this phone call was actually from a Google employee?
- joezydeco 16y agoYeah this reeks of a headhunter trying to scrape up resumes to present to Google.
- mkrecny 16y agoAny yet the individual claimed to be an engineer at Google
- HerraBRE 16y agoFrom my (admittedly outdated) knowledge of the Google recruiting process (I worked there as an engineer and interviewed about 100 people), this was almost certainly NOT an engineer. Google isn't going to waste an engineer's time going through a predefined script of multiple choice questions over the phone. These calls are called pre-screens and are usually done by non-technical, dedicated recruiters - frequently contractors.
- brown9-2 16y agoYour article states it was a recruiter - are you sure about this? My experience with Google interviews is nothing as ridiculous as what you had, really just sounds like a bad apple.
