Had a team match call with HM and they want to move forward but I feel it’s not the right fit. Is it ok to decline and wait for another team match? And, what’s the right way to do this

I would recommend you move forward, get a year under your belt, then look for other roles which excite you. Bird in hand is worth two in the bush. Team matches can take a while, and were I in your shoes, I wouldn’t wait.

And to answer your original question, you can absolutely decline, and let your recruiter know that you would like to continue waiting for the right fit.

If you want to be at Google and you have a team fit, from my perspective, I say take the job. If you’re unsure if Google is where you want to be, then take some time.

If you accept this position, and not like it, you can always transfer later.
