Is it routine for Google to always ask for references after final round?

Usually references are in preparation for Hiring Committee. It’s completely standard.

How soon after the final round was this

With references you mean for example letters from previous employers?

A reference is the contact info of someone who can attest to your work style, ethic, and skills. Former bosses or close teammates work well for this. Always ask before just submitting their info so they can prepare for a call/email.

I didn’t get asked. Is it part of the background check ?

They asked me internal references before HC

I’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?

My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at
Google. It may be easier to leave for a handful of years and gain managerial experience before returning.

L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.

TC: 270K
