Are 100% of the software or cloud related job interviews at Google going through the algorithms and coding skills? I don’t want to be a developer and algorithms are not my forte. but there should be positions at Google which is technical but not necessarily involved with coding and algorithms. Any information would be appreciated. I am interested in Google Cloud.

What's your particular definition of "technical"? Software engineer is for people who architect/create software so programming and algorithms are required. If your definition of technical is something like diagnosing and replacing hardware, using but not building technology, etc. there would be different roles but we'd need to know what you're actually referring to.

You didn't say which role you were looking at. Some roles (e.g. SWE) require coding and algorithms and there's no way around it. Others, like what Google 1 said have different requirements. Another one you could look at is Technical Solutions Specialist.

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Thanks

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE

Does the recruiter typically wait for all candidates to finish their onsites before communicating a decision? Or if I haven’t heard back yet, it’s probably a reject?
