1/29 Thread (General):

Fairly new to investing. For folks that have been in the game for quite some time, what sort of information do you look for in determining whether a company is a good investment or not, whether the price point is high or there’s still room to run, etc. If someone said ABC is a good investment, when doing your DD, what do you look for and why? Any links or books/courses you’ve used would also be appreciated.

Does anyone use XLOOKUP over Index Match? Why /why not?

So many interviews, yet I can't seem to find a new home. Looking for something more exciting and involved, where I'm allowed to be more hands-on and where the work itself is challenging. My current company is very secure, but the work (or lack thereof) is uninspiring. Any recommendations?

Can anyone recommend online professional assessment tests for profiling personality / aptitudes, rather than for skills?

Or can you share which assessments you've seen private equity firms using most often?

Folks who do hiring, what do you think of adopting the following question in future interviews?

Hi there! I’m interested in becoming a product designer and was wondering what platform you all recommend for building a portfolio! I’m not super adept at coding, so that’s worth mentioning.

How important is it to provide availability for more immediate dates than later dates?
I was asked for availability for 3 interviews in a day. However I'm traveling for work next week but I don't want to lose out on this opportunity just cause I will give a later availability date.

Does Google give the Friday off before Labor Day?

I had first virtual for a non tech role a week ago (with referral) but haven’t heard from recruiter. Is that a bad sign? Hiring mgr stated I might be too senior so I applied to a more senior role. Sr role recruiter sent my resume to hiring team so wondering if I’m no longer considered for role 1.

Any googlers willing to give a referral? Corp finance and strat consulting experience - 10 YOE. Looking for strat / Biz dev roles.

Do referrals help with at least getting a Recruiter Phone Screen?

Have a second round interview for a PM role next week — Does anyone know what the interview process/expectation is like between levels? For example, you’re interviewing for a lower level, are the interview questions “easier” or is there a different quality of answer expected? Same question for higher levels. And full transparency, I know the questions are never truly “easy”, but curious what the difference is, if any. Thanks!

Anyone know which Seattle office is the best? Got an offer and can choose between Seattle offices.

Today is the 2nd time I have been told by the recruiter that my feedback was great BUT the hiring manager decided to move forward with other candidates. 😣

Pressure to push support check ins for any small shortcoming is real. Has G always been like this? Rumors make me want to avoid G like how I am avoiding Amazon.

Maybe avoid big tech all together is the smart play.

Time from HC to written offer?

Completed onsite interviews for the TAM role and recruiter gave me feedback that my technical depth wasn’t up to par for the role but my googleness/leadership and GCA interview feedback was stellar so they plan to propose me for Cloud PM roles instead. Does this happen? Or are they just being nice? What’s the probability that they’ll match me to another role?
