happy to share that I accepted an offer at Google today. Starting in two weeks unless the world falls apart in that time (non-zero chance of that it seems like).

Good bye consultant life!

Ugh, just got rejected from a senior level big tech opportunity. 4 month hiring process, multiple rescheduled interview days and no-shows, 10+ interviews in the end, multiple take home assessments, and took 2 days off work for the final round of interviews. Very frustrating and feel like they wasted my time in the end. Just a shambolic interview process in which I felt like a placeholder till they found who they really wanted.
