Why is the timing off? I’m sure if you have a valid reason they will understand and if they like you as a candidate they will give you a shot. But remember it might be a bad time for them when you’re ready

Nah Google will keep you on a shortlist for future opps if they extend you an offer and you decline

Well, I’m not really ready to move right now, and it would require a big move. I mainly want to keep them on my radar for other jobs that come up. This particular job isn’t one I really want, but when Google comes knocking, you don’t turn them down ;)

Thanks, A1 :)

OP what role are you interviewing for?

I quit drinking at the first of the year because I was drinking too much as a way to cope with Covid. 99.9% of the time, I’m glad I quit drinking.

I don’t even like wine very much, but I miss that low level buzz that makes everything a little less loud.
