Had my interview this past Monday.

My recruiter meets every Thursday to get feedback from the interviewer, so I’m not expecting to hear back until next Friday.

I get an email today, from a Googler, an invite to apply for a position. I did not accept or decline yet and I don’t have any details. I did look up the person who sent me the invite, the person is a regional lead.

Any ideas what this could be? I’m a bit nervous and don’t know if I should reach out to my recruiter to ask her?

You are not beholden to anyone. Talk to the Googler if you think it's a good position/fit for you. You don't have to tell anyone what other opportunities you have going on. If your recruiter option doesn't work out, you'll be kicking yourself for not exploring the Google opportunity.

Agreed. Just ask.

My take on things is always take the phone call. Worst case scenario you just got a little interview practice. This advise has lead to many great career switches for both my husband and myself, all calls we normally wouldn’t have taken otherwise. If you are concerned about two roles at the same company, ask! Go for it and best of luck!

Might be a good idea to check with recruiter. Companies usually don’t like candidates interviewing simultaneously for multiple positions.

Life is too short to not take an opportunity to interview if you’re interested in a job. It doesn’t mean you have to take it, and it could end up giving you leverage for asking for more money or time to consider options from the place you already interviewed at.

It doesn’t matter what companies do or don’t like when it comes to interviewing with multiple companies. It’s your life, your decision. And if they rescind an offer or get weird about it, that’s likely not a company you’d want to work for. That’s a horrible sign.

Good luck!
