I’ve been trying to get into the top tier Associate Product Marketing Manager position Google for some time now for just an interview and I feel like business majors somehow have such a stronger chance in getting interviewed especially my business school and I feel really discouraged as an Econ Major and I have a lot of marketing experience that I’ve built over the years. Are there any non-business majors in the tech realm in non technical positions at Google that can advise me?

In all honesty we don’t really care what school you came from, I work with quite a few great individuals who never even went to school. Focus on applicable experience, tell a great story about why you want to go to X company, be your authentic self, and have a good level of understanding for your area.

The schooling will come in to play to some degree, undeniably. But that’s not a make or break factor, per my statement above. I went to a state school in Oklahoma (def not UC Berkeley), and came from a small startup.

Google also doesn’t do a lot of new grad hiring unless you came from an internship or feeder program. Our “entry level” roles really start at 4-5 YoE, so focus on getting impactful experience if Google doesn’t work out for you out of the gate. There’s a litany of great companies out there as well. Look at Microsoft, Adobe, SAP, Workday, Salesforce etc.

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.

Hi! I am seeking for an advise, anything helps! I applied to Accenture’s entry level analyst program. I applied a few days ago (I know it’s a bit late, but the application is still open thankfully). Yesterday, I joined a resume workshop w/ an Accenture recruiter. She went through my resume and said that I have a strong one! I’ve also set up a coffee chat w/ her next week. Unfortunately, I got an email today from the system, they decided not to move forward :( Should I reach out to her abt this?
