Hi everyone, I think I tackled everything in this video, let me know if you have any questions!!

[charliedelph]

This cleared it up for me! Thank you!!

Your videos have helped through this whole process. I just matched with my second team today for a TPM!

[calebking]

Jeff! I just got an offer after binge watching your videos throughout the interview process over the last few months. Thank you so much for all you do to help people wanting to break into Google!

[jennyhsu]

I have been watching your videos during my interview prep. Just timely video. I was informed my HC review is tomorrow and fingers crossed 🤞

Hi, thanks for your video! I interviewed with Google last month for a general SWE role (first time - thinking I didn't do too well), and to my surprise, my recruiter just got back to me with generally positive interviewer feedback, saying he would submit my packet for me to the HC. Even if I don't make it past HC, this was very interesting to learn about - I appreciate your video!

Amazing content as always! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise! 👍👍👍

Hi Jeff,
This was so helpful as I have been in the process for 3 months now (and I am a TVC). After phone screening, I had the interview with the hiring manager and then 5 interviews as part of the online onsite process. I was told by my recruiter that I am on of the finalist (1 month ago). My google referral who gets notified on my application status was the one who told me I was on the HC process (it's actually finalized as of today) because my recruiter never mentioned anything and takes quite sometime to send updates :( so THANK YOU for explaining the process, it helps to easy my anxiety!! Crossing fingers for great news soon!! Keep the great content coming! I have seen pretty much every video several times throughout my process and IT IS SO ON POINT! THANK YOU!!!

Thanks for this video! I passed the HC last month and currently in team matching phase for UXR. My understanding is this phase is the longest within the Google hiring process. Someone I know who switched to Google said it took him 4 months.

Hi Jeff, maybe you don't remember me since I made a comment on different video few weeks ago. I am now waiting for the internal approval (maybe from HC) for my position (non-tech)! I think I have been growing up with your videos and the free materials on the website till this stage. No matter what the result would be, I appreciate your contents and insights.

hi Jeff, thanks for making this video. I recently found your channel and have been watching many of your past livestreams -- appreciate the content and your various insights.

I had my my onsite interview for a general SWE L3 position a couple days ago, and my recruiter relayed to me a day after my interviews that he got all the informations (i guess from the interviewers) he needed and that i am able to move forward to the HC. I got the impression from many online sources that (at least for SWE) it is ALWAYS that you go to HC before team match, i've never seen any mention of team match and getting a hiring manager's support BEFORE going to HC until this video.

i am wondering if it is more of a per-recruiter basis for how the order of how these things go, like if recruiters choose their own rules on the ordering of these. because If I base on what you mentioned here, i guess i should feel pretty happy getting to the HC, but if I base on other online informations, it seems like it is just a standard procedure / not indication of my performance being strong or anything. Thoughts?

Thanks Jeff! I am currently waiting to find out when my packet will be sent to hiring committee for a TPM position. This helped me realize I have a greater chance than I first thought.

[Thehurdgang]

These videos are so helpful. I watched them prior to and during my interviews. I actually matched with a hiring manager before going to hiring committee. Now just waiting for hiring committee results!

[diffy]

Thanks for sharing all your wisdom. Extremely helpful! How long does it usually take after interviewing to hear concrete next steps? I’ve seen some posts where no news is good news and others stating that you’ve been iced if you don’t hear back quickly. Any guidance? Thanks!

Jeff, This was very helpful. Can you please share your insights around when does the compensation and level get decided in the process. It looks like the level gets decided within HC but compensation does not. And how often do levels go higher during offer negotiations. If after the HC approval, team matching starts, then does the compensation get negotiated only after a team matching is successful? It's unclear to me where in the entire hiring process do the level and compensation decisions get made.

[takwdluk]

Thanks Jeff. I finished my virtual on-site last week and was just told by the recruiter that they have decided not to move forward at this time. However, the recruiter reiterated that there were many positive feedbacks and said she would definitely stay in touch with me in the coming year. Any insight on what may have happened (wrt HC)? Any advice on what I can do to be better next time?

[ffrankk]

Hey Jeff, I got sent straight to HC after onsite! Still waiting for results, hoping I pass it!

[antoniobiasi]

hi Jeff,
Firstly, I want to thank you for every videos that you produce every month😊. They are all very useful...
I personally finished the interviews via meet, and yesterday the recruiter called me saying that "for now they intend to proceed with other candidates", but that they would like me to apply in the future for other positions.
How should I interpret this communication in your opinion? How soon, in your experience, could I reapply?
The recruiter told me that, if I want we can talk to discuss the feedback. Do you think it can be useful?
Thank you Antonio

[Lee-yzgk]

Thanks Jeff for the sharing, it is very informative !

What does that mean if the recuritor asked for CV and details after the on-site interviews ?

[CSneedInc]

Thanks Jeff for this amazing video. So many rounds. It can be a bit daunting. The percentages are interesting. Thanks for the candor. Really makes you want to put your best foot forward and prepare, prepare, prepare. It's a lot of work from both parties.

A few questions:
1) Is the HC stage virtual like the on site or in person?




Thanks for your responses in advance.

Hi Jeff! Love your content! I just finished my interviews for a PM position and I felt really good about it :). My recruiter told me that for the feedback received it was very good!! I am super pumped. However, she mentioned interviewers evaluated me at both L3 and L4 levels. For L3 I got 1 lean hire 3 hires and 1 strong hire and for L4 got one no hire and then rest lean or hires. Now, my packet is being taken to hiring committee. What do you think will happen here? Does it help that the interviewers evaluated me at both of these levels?
