Anyone else feel like the real issue right now is getting into the interview to begin with? As if everyone(both employer and potential employee) is putting their heads down and just going through all the applications daily or sometimes hourly (enjoy the tip, everyone seems to be interactive before or at 12:45, just the way the ball rolls lately.),and the major problem is that because of this.. nobody is going to an interview or perpetually interviewing with mass reject letters(email) afterwards?

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!

What can you do if you’re getting interviewed by the same person who didn’t choose you in the first place?
Context: I applied for a position a while back and got interviewed, but didn’t go to the next round. I found the same position open again a month later at a different location and applied. Almost immediately, I was called for an interview, but with the same interviewer. What does this mean? Is this going to get awkward?

I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly.

It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?
