Hi there! After 4 months of interviews at Google UK, recruiter said I was going to hiring committee. Yet yesterday, he called me to tell me that the role had been “de-prioritised” and I can’t reach the hiring committee just yet. He said there could be a 1 month delay, 6 months or that the role could even get cancelled. As he’s quite new in the company he couldn’t tell me more. Is this common? Should I wait? Is the likeliness that the role will re-open down the line? I feel a bit helpless

Sorry to hear that this has happened but don’t get discouraged. A lot of orgs are sticking with 1 month hiring pauses for now and reassessing headcount needs at the end of August and then going from there. I would advise to stay consistent with your recruiter in following up but honestly also keep other prospects open if you have any if you’re in a situation where you need a new role now

Great build. Thanks a lot for this - I’ll definitely follow up regularly with him. Appreciate your kind words and your tips! x

Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?

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!
