When you say “Interviewed twice” do you mean you came in for on-site interviews or just had phone screens with a recruiter? How far apart were those interviews? Were they the same time or two different roles?

like

Screen or phone interviews. One in person at a conference the other on the phone. The second time I did a phone screening the had my old email on file.

The recruiter either goes goes vacation or gets a new role by time they said they would follow back with me. What am I doing wrong?

I doubt you’re doing anything “wrong”, it sounds more like they either have more qualified candidates or you’re not the right fit after the phone screen. I’d take some time and make sure you’re really applying to roles that fit your skill set.

Right note G is hiring extremely specific roles, so they might be even pickier about who they bring past phone screens to fit that job versus a more general role fit to Google. There might be little to no progress for the next few months.

Thanks! I interviewed and had a phone screen prior to the pandemic.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!
