I applied for a position at Google (no referral), invited for the online assessment and passed it. But no reach out from HR yet, anything I can do about it?

Nope. Online assessment is not an indicator of an interview or not.

No idea. Probably team dependent. Also I believe it’s new within past couple years so if you applied before that’s why you didn’t see it.

I think that online assessment is just very generic - not tied to a specific position or interview process

very automated assessment that takes no human effort

The better playbook…

Use referrals to bypass or reduce reliance on the OA is just a hygiene check.

Engage recruiters directly, they’re the real gatekeepers.

Reframe consulting projects in tech-native terms: growth, scale, systems. This is what hiring managers actually optimize for.

Same! Passed the online assessment a month ago, no reach out.

Nothing short of reaching out to the Hiring Manager. I've applied and passed the assessment stage for double digital roles over the past year and had just 1 recruiter reach out randomly

like

Didn’t pass the assessment. What’s the trick? (Context it’s just a personality test).

I believe they look for logically consistent answers, openness to collaboration, and ability to problem solve in unknown situations.

Nope. I passed the assessment, waited, never received an interview, and then just got a rejection. Was a bit unusual.
