I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Google in Oct 2025
Interview
Recruiter sent me this email with a promise to chat with Googler at specific date and time. I was a little bit worried about the fact that no appointment were scheduled in calendar of any kind. And, of course, nobody contacted me, no Googler this time!
So, I am disappointed. Don’t even know how to categorize this behaviour. You do your conclusions.
