Hi Fishies! (Is that what we are? I’m going with it)
I just came across a Google Research and Insights role that got me SUPER excited and I was about to apply when I had the idea of seeing if anyone would be willing to give me a referral. I understand (and respect) that most of you Googlers on here feel that a referral is only useful if you know the person but I would be happy to jump on the phone to give you some info about me. It would mean so much! 4 YOE at a major audio steaming service
Does anybody have any advice when applying to postings with many applicants and getting noticed? The company I am interested in is Figma, and though I reached out to a few technical recruiters after applying through LinkedIn, I am wondering if there might be something more I could do that maybe I’m not thinking about. Also along those lines, if anybody here works for figma I would love the chance to connect

Need help from Amazon 🐠 Anyone interviewed for Amazon L5 BIE in GSF supply chain team? The JD said basic qualifications include data modeling, ETL, data warehousing and optimization. Any idea or experience how they will test these topics? Asking about related experience? Or show some data and ask how you will deal with that? Or like a case study, given a senario and ask how you think in order to tackle problem? Need advice/idea/experience urgently. Thanks in advance.Amazon @BIE
Hi everyone! Curious if anyone here works for Slack and can shed a little light on the culture and perhaps offer a referral for an associate brand manager position I just saw on LinkedIn. With the Salesforce acquisition are SF employees allowed to refer for Slack roles? Currently a senior analyst with 4 YOE looking to break into a branding role! Thanks in advance.

I think you can believe that this position isn’t for you however the right candidate may love it and thrive. Candidates can be eager to prove they are the right person. I think when answering questions you can phrase them in a manner that your company is searching for that special right person for the position. If someone asks a question that the answer is a solid no and negative for you, your answer can be about the person puts in the effort and has positive attitude they could be successful. It’s a tough sell however just remember you’re helping the company essentially replace a job you’re in and trusts that you are familiar with the skill set required to do the job. Interview based on resume only not personality type questions
Speak factually about:
-the opportunities of the role
-the characteristics of someone who will be successful
-the things you like about the role/team
-the obstacles that someone will face
-how you would expect someone to overcome those obstacles
Do not:
-stonewall
-paint an overly rosy picture
-focus only on the negatives
This exercise might also help you identify any wins left for you in the role if you write it down on paper first.
Taking a step back, why do you need to be part of the interview panel? Are you staying with the company in another capacity or does your boss not actually know what you do/how to interview?
Two of the company’s procedural rules for interviewing are at play in this situation:
1. The panel interview must include a peer. Due to being understaffed, there are only 3 potential peers: one guy who recently barely survived a performance improvement plan (likely due to the churn that occurred during his PIP), another guy who is 5 timezones ahead, and me.
2. The interview team is required to include at least one woman. There are no other women on my team and very few women in technical roles in the department.
My boss is supposedly working to create a new higher level role (similar required skills but a different focus and different day-to-day responsibilities) on an adjacent team to retain me. I’m open to staying in a different role, which is a large factor in why I haven’t already resigned.
