Hello everyone,

I had my second technical interview two weeks ago and I had emailed the recruiter to check for any progress on my application. I just received an email saying they want to talk to me over call. Should I be worried? Given the hiring freeze .. I am a little worked up. I mean, I would surely talk to her soon to know the situation but my anxiety is off the charts. Is this positive or negative ?

Can go both ways.. but stay positive 😊

It’s not a hiring freeze for all roles. If you read the email it says hiring will continue for “engineering, technical and other critical roles.”

As G1 said it can go either way, only your recruiter knows the answer.

I hear you both!

Thanks for the input :)

Keeping the positive vibes alive! Cheers!

So, I spoke to my recruiter and she told me that they are
reprioritizing where they will be hiring
for the remainder of the year and I would basically have some delays in hearing back from her (almost 2 weeks). Looks like a sign of hiring freeze. Does that mean I should conclude the employment opportunity and move on ?

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!
