Going to a networking event where I’m meeting up with a current Google employee (alum from my grad school). How do I impress her enough to get a referral link? Any tips are appreciated 😁

not sure how tactful you can make that... im sure they have people asking them all the time. Just be yourself, dont oversell, then at some point in the future, reach out to them about a referral

Don't try to impress. Just ask her how she likes it there and if she thinks you would like it.

I don’t understand this... you can apply online and one gets referral bonus so wts the worry ?

The expectation is that Google employees refer candidates they know well and can vouch for their skills. The equivalent of “would you staff this person on your project?"

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

If you go for interview and you sort of know that the person interviewing you might be curious about something on your negative on your resume like why is there a gap or why were you in XX role for so long?

Do you address it pre-emptively? Or does that show insecurity and you leave the elephant in the room and wait till they ask you?

I guess this is more in the case of networking than interview like do you make your own story?
