Hmmm, I am not convinced. How do you see this stigma manifest?

  I've had companies reject my CV explicitly because of my Google job (as they've had bad experience with ex-Googlers before).

    That seems like a very narrow minded approach. I’d be concerned about applying to that sort of company just by hearing that they apply nonsensical filters like that. Can you give some examples, since you claim there are multiple?

    I once applied for a job at medium-sized startup, passed their phone screen, take home assignment and onsite, and then had a meeting with the CTO where I was told that they have had problems with ex-Googlers before, and then was rejected after that conversation.

      Have they mentioned any particular problems that they've had, if you don't mind me asking?
