     @shibao I was there for a while during a Google interview many years ago and I didn't like it.

     @sun @shibao

     I've noticed that the Bay Area or SF is a hit or miss for people.

     What was the interview like?

     @iLearn @shibao all the online interviews went really well and they flew me out to do in person interviews, but the in-person interviews (several over the day) largely didn't go well. I have heard since then that they don't do very good interviews and it often takes people multiple tries to get hired there.
     
     since then I am glad I didn't get hired, I don't like Google anymore.

     @icedquinn @iLearn @shibao I switched from gmail to fastmail. I use yt-dlp to minimize how much time I spend on the actual site, or viewing ads

     @iLearn @shibao @sun that CEO was fun, he used to come up with these ideas late at night so we'd end up in a meeting at like 3am (no problem i go to sleep at 5am(

     @iLearn @shibao the interviews were all done by other employees.
     
     I felt that the questions were very frequently vague and ambiguous and I would try to answer them and the person didn't get the angle they were looking for.

     @sun @shibao

     I've read about about people needing multiple tries for Google through Linkedin. It's crazy if you ask me, but if I could try for Google I would honestly.

     Doesn't HR or someone from the team do the interviews? Why would they not be very good?

     @shrimp @iLearn @shibao you made the right choice to have emergency heart surgery rather than interview at google
