- solardev 4y agoWhat the heck is a xoogler? Sounds like some sci fi slime mold monster.

- zzyzxd 4y agoYou would be surprised how common this is. Lots of startup companies also love to brag about how many xooglers they have recruited. I once interviewed at a startup and the CTO introduced himself as "xoogler". After the interview I checked his Linkedin profile and he had a summer internship at Google 7 years ago.
- porknubbins 4y agoNow I’m really curious if they pronounce it “zoogler” or an “exoogler”. Either way seems to be another “how do you know if a man went to Harvard or the Marines” type cliche.
