I Asked Googlers How To Get Hired

Today, I walk around Google headquarters and ask Google software engineers how to get into Google and if they have any other advice. You'll want to watch till the end because many of these engineers have over 10 years of experience and interview candidates like you every single day. Today, they finally reveal all their secrets.

How to get hired by Google:
1) Work for a competing start-up.
2) Wait for Google to acquire.

Every 4th guy in Google campus is just a random Indian software engineer getting his coffee 😅

before interview : we focus on basic stuff
interview : do these 3 hard leetcode in O(30 min), oh and design the architecture of youtube, also what was your hardest project ?

"just be yourself"
Never worked for me at any of the dozens and dozens and dozens of companies I've interviewed for.

It’s hard to get into google, my brother in law is greatly qualify, he aced the interview and everything, but they told him they would be considering him for an opening as a Software Developer. Since he knew he wasn’t gonna get hired he used that recommendation to get hire somewhere else with a good pay and less stress

You can find out all this same stuff literally by getting an interview at Google and reading their preparation materials. These people were basically saying, these are the ways we sort good candidates from bad ones. They did not say, these are the ways we sort good candidates from the one who is picked for the job. Very, very different.

Note how half of these people came from startups that were bought out by Google.

Keep that in mind. If you are competing with Google in any way, THAT is your application to Google. You have a leg up on most other applicants. If Google buys you out, congratulations, you now work for Google. If Google decides not to buy you out, they are at least familiar with your work. In fact, Google might prefer to buy the talent instead of buying the project.

Just keep an eye out for the optimal strategy. If Google really wants to take your startup off the market, you want to stay with your startup. If Google just wants to destroy the startup you work for (and you don't own equity in the startup) you might consider making yourself available to Google instead.

[paramtapkaushal]

[abhishekjha]

[chitranshsahu]

Amazing fact is that if i ask people in india how they got job in indian google office they tell they did lot of leetcode questions, networking, computer networks to get into the google . But in foreign it feels like you just have to learn basics .

Here we go again, nice vid and motivations thanks man

[subratkumarsingh]

Amazing insight!!! thanks for the info

I think a big take away of this and I also fall to this trap earlier, that it is not enough if you have a great tech skills, you need to sell yourself in some way. Proper communication and presentation skills also a required soft skill which need to be acquired, because the interviewers are not read-minder if you can't present your skills they don't know if you have it.

Its very easy to say just be yourself and know the basics, in real world they won't even shortlist the resume if you don't have good collage background, and now a days they expect coding practice that is again far from real work what we do in actual job.

8:20, why did you cut that guy off, I wanted to hear what else he had to say 😭really needed to hear that though, love your channel man

"How did you end up here at Google?"
"Well you know, everyone was just over hiring. So me and a couple people ended up here that way"
lol killed me

[arianahmadi]

Again another great video! Keep it up :)

Honestly they’re lying half the time. What they’re NOT saying is your school, the name of the company you worked for, and how likeable you are plays a big part
