I mean you can work anywhere right now as long as you work your team time zones (generally), but you’re gonna have to move to your location site eventually.

What G1 said. Post Dec, anything could happen. A vaccine or other developments could shift that timeline in either direction.

So, only worth going through it if you're eventually going to move.

Yeah, don’t worry about it. Unless you have critical needs (typically a SWE or SRE) you won’t be able to go to the office until 2021. I was supposed to move this spring but now I’m hanging out at home and not moving until next year.

Thanks - I’m just nervous moving cross country in the middle of a pandemic 😣

Truthfully I think you’re worrying too much about that.
If you haven’t even applied, you have no idea if you’d even get the job or when. Google hiring rates are infamously low and take upwards of 3 months to get an offer.
If you want to work at G and are open to living in the Bay, then apply and see what happens.
No clue how long you could WFH or where the world will be by the time you would have to move.

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!
