I have applied to several positions up Google. I have not heard anything back at all. No matter if I customize my résumé to the job description I still don’t hear anything back. I am wondering as to why Google ghost people instead of just telling them that they didn’t get the job? Do people on Google believe it is appropriate for the recruiters just a ghost people especially if they feel they don’t match the job?

Thanks for all of the responses. Since you didn’t network, was it through a cold apply, a recruiter reaching out to you, or some other channel?
The reason why I’m asking is because I just joined Northwestern’s part time MBA program. I had a conversation with my career advisor and I was told that I just have to network to get an opportunity with Google since Google doesn’t do on campus recruiting. I am wondering if there’s a better way besides cold applying or reaching out to people on LinkedIn.
I started my career at Facebook (pre re-brand) then went to a start-up for a couple of years. From there I spent a few years at a large tech company, a few years at a FAANG-adjacent company, and then joined Google
