I have an offer already with a company but am in the process with Google still. Should I inform the recruiter of my start date with the other company (recruiter knows I have an offer)? I’ve already interviewed with the HM, moving on to 2nd round interviews now.

You should, but don’t expect the process to move faster. It’s not fair, but Google really doesn’t expedite interviews too quickly for anyone - ans it depends when your HC meets when you’ll get an offer. My team only meets every other week (so if you time it incorrectly, you could remain SOL)

Definitely share with the recruiter!

This happened to me... I gave up the other offer to continue process with Google (and it worked out!)

The process here is so long, they can expedite but timeline will still likely force you to make a decision with imperfect information.

I was in this situation back in 2014. Ended up taking the other offer as Google took too long... and then left that 2 months later to join Google. It cost me some relationship points with that employer, so it's not necessarily the best example to follow, but it was worth it!

I did and the process was expedited.

Interesting- I think that’s the first time I’ve heard someone say theirs was expedited
