Hello!
I finished my final round(s) for a TAM position at Google (GCP) last week and was told by my recruiter that my feedback was great and that I made a solid impression on the team and am "firmly in the running". I was supposed to hear back this week (according to the recruiter) but he just told me that it's still in the process and that I'll have to wait for another week or so.
Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.

Sorry you’re going through this. New situations are always a learning curve, and it’ll take you at least 1-1.5 years to start getting the hang of things. That said, local govt attorneys are very marketable and niche! I’ve seen some private job openings with good pay and little to no billable hours for local govt attorneys. Your frustration was valid for not seeing yourself on par with others, but your experience was much more niched! If you don’t like it, you can always go back into a similar role? But I would remind your boss that you’re learning litigation if/when confronted. If you’re learning from mistakes, that’s all you can really do, and your boss sucks for not being as patient as he lead on.
I work as a local government attorney for a firm that represents multiple municipalities and I get a looooot more experience from one specific client compared to all the other ones combined. You may have very well been limited in your first position, but I do think there are other cities/counties/agencies that would give you more experience in the areas you’re interested in, and have more patience with your learning curve if that kind of work interests you.
I never saw this field as an option in school, it just kind of dropped into my lap, but now I can’t imagine anything else bc of how much I love what I do and how much experience I get as a young attorney, I’m 3.5 years in and I get to give advice and counsel, I see trials and arbitrations, I basically work my own cases, I can take depos, I cover commission meetings entirely on my own, etc. I can basically do most of what the partners do but they’re still available for guidance and help whenever I need it and they also don’t make me do anything alone that I’m not ready for. I say all that to say, what you are looking for is out there, and talking to other local govt attorneys, at least down here in South Florida, it’s much more common than I would have expected.
That said, you could address your issue with your boss, but it sounds like you’ve already been very direct with him and he just doesn’t want to hear it, so if I were in your position, I would look for something else that does fit with what I want.
Read the rules. Peek at similar type case filings on Pacer (find cases through Westlaw). Ask for samples. Use secondary sources on Westlaw for questions. Hang in there. It will come.
I was worried that I wasn't developing any skills and that I wouldn't be marketable. So I left.
During my interviews, I was VERY open about my lack of experience and used that as my reason to leave. I received an offer from a partner who said he really wanted to train. I was excited.
I've been in this role for about 6 months now and I'm struggling because I've never done any of this before. Every time I make a mistake, my boss brings up the fact that he hired me for my experience, but I feel like a first year all over again. I've tried pointing this out to him and reminding him that I have no idea what I'm doing, but he doesn't seem to remember this fact.
I hate this so much, but I don't know what else to do. I can't magically gain 5 years of work experience.
How do you think I should address this?
