4 Strong Hire + 1 No Hire at Google – pass HC?
Interview Experience
Recently went through Google L4 SWE interviews and wanted to get some honest opinions on my chances. Here’s my feedback breakdown: * Strong Hire – Googliness * Strong Hire – Coding (Round 1) * No Hire – Coding (Round 2) HR told me that the interviewer suggested not proceeding with me. I don’t know whether that means No Hire or Lean No Hire or Strong No Hire. I wrote the solution but was unable to fix one small very simple bug. He said progress was too slow. Apart from that he was total asshole. * Strong Hire – Coding (Round 3) * Extra round given due to one bad feedback * Extra round felt strong (likely Hire / Strong Hire, waiting for feedback) HR mentioned the extra round was to resolve the conflicting signal from one interviewer. Assuming last round comes back positive, how does HC usually treat a packet like this? Does a single No Hire still hurt significantly if the rest are Strong Hire + strong Googliness?
