That is crazy; I had the exact opposite experience I just mentioned in another comment. When I turned Google down I was told I could come back and skip the interviews any time in the next year. (Presumably no longer valid with the freeze, but still.) And this is the second time I've turned them down after getting a concrete offer! Personally I did not expect "aw shucks, hope you change your mind" when I did that and yet that's precisely what I got.
