After interviewing for 2 months and getting positive feedback on my final interviews, I got the dreaded “Google freeze” call. I don’t have to interview for a year but it’s kind of depressing. Anyone in this scenario as well?Google Google Google

As long as you did well in your interviews, you no longer have to interview anymore. Coffee chats are pretty casual. Most likely something will come up before your year expires

I’m actually kind of surprised that you’re just getting these calls. They already went through the Open positions in Deprioritized roles that was like last quarter. The freeze was announced however there are open roles that are deemed more critical.

Oh ok well I’m sorry you got that answer. I’m hoping we will start hiring in Q1

Can you share the role you were interviewing for? I’m in the process as well.

I got the “de-prioritized” email too. Can someone help me understand this better. Is it a hiring freeze? Or we just have to wait longer because we are “next” in line? If they are having a hiring freeze, would they flat out say hiring freeze or use “de-prioritize” as their fluff word for the freeze?

Why is it recommended you give a company 2 weeks notice when you are leaving but at the same time, when they are laying you off/firing you, they typically do it on the spot. I have known countless people layed off/fired on the spot over the years (especially after busy season) and everyone else when they leave give 2 week notice. Why should we relinquish power to corporations? Corporations really don't care about us. They pretend they do.
