Question 1
What's your opinion on the evolution of the partner space
3 rounds of interview with someone from the team, the hiring manager, and a cross functional peer. Interview was once every two weeks. Interview assesses RRK, GCA, Leadership and Googleyness
Super sketchy emails from third parties that look like phishing emails - I almost deleted them.
Once you get through to the Google employees themselves, the recruiters extremely flaky - getting passed from one individual to another, with extremely clunky handoff. I understand there's high volume, but this does not speak highly of Google's culture which is known to have fallen off a cliff in the last six months.
They use canned email to make it sound impressive, but execution was extremely unprofessional and disappointing. Definitely not leaving a great impression on me as a business owner, or consumer.

It was a wonderful interview experience. Had just the initial round because it was just a screening call. Basic questions about past experience. Chose not to pursue further as role was not a great fit.
