Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Google (Mountain View, CA) en jun 2012
Entrevista
Google has a long process. I've interviewed with them several times before, the occasionally refresh their past candidates and call them back. The last time i spoke to them was about 3 years ago. The recruiter emailed me and asked to chat with me again, thru this process they explained the phone interviews that would be done, the skills assessment/packet preparation, then the onsite panel interview. Then the panel participants submit written feedback to a committee who makes the decision. You never speak to the people making the decision, sometimes this causes a loss of fidelity between who is being spoken to and who is making the decision. I don't care for the in-personal approach of never talking to the decision maker, but google is reported to be a good employer.
