I'm sorry you dealt with that. It really sucks and it's such a blow, I remember those days. My confidence was at a pretty low point. The thing that helped me was to remember that for every job, there are 100s of applicants. That means I have to apply for hundreds of jobs. As awful as that sounds, it's a numbers game and it's not personal. Eventually you'll find the right fit.
would you recommend any tech giant to shoot for , i am looking for work life balance
What's meant for you, will always find you. Maybe you dodged a bullet. This is coming from someone who has landed jobs at top 100 Fortune companies. One of them ended up being a shit show. No support, not enough resources or processes. Everything isn't always what it seems. Take time to process & recharge. Rejection is redirection.
This is so true! So glad you posted this!
I applied for a project with Google once. It was so mind boggling stressful. Through all of that, I knew in my gut something was wrong.
In the end, I did not get the job due to physical appearance. Luckily, another group wanted me based on my skills. Remember - you want to gain skills and learn new technologies. Plenty of companies are cutting edge - get with your recruiter and look for something fun to do. Truth is - If you do something you love, you never work a day in your life. You go into the office with a bright attitude, looking forward to learning something or sharing new ideas with others.
Ouch. I thought that I was getting dragged along. Nothing like your try for a Google job, but for a top 100 law firm. Had been three weeks between the first two interviews, then receiving word on a visit for the 3rd and likely final in person.
Step 1 was to inflate the economic bubble. Now we're on step 2 where the bubble collapses. Step 3 is the rescue plan. I hope you have enough saved up to make it through 2024. We probably won't see a reversal until 2025.
Do not beat yourself up . Do a post interview analysis to figure out what could have been done better.
Understand that the goal is for you to be happy and strive to become a better and better engineer.
Never beat yourself up over a rejection . Never.

I feel ya. As a CS Student at Weber State University, I began applying for jobs during my junior year of college. And it was so demoralizing being looked over because of my lack of experience. Even after earning my Bachelors degree, I didn't know how to use version control, and I didn't really have any projects to showcase. As I was interested in game development, I tried really hard to take a few game dev courses before graduation, but there wasn't enough interest to hold the classes.
Eventually, I gave up at Weber, graduated without them, and looked into the U of U's EAE program. Thankfully, I was accepted, and the three years it took me to earn my degree showed gave me a good taste of how brutal the video game industry can be. While my life has taken some unexpected turns, I'd like to work as an indie developer now; game companies are hundreds of times more unstable than Google.
Keep trying, just try looking for work outside of FAANG companies for the time being; they're all going crazy at this point.
Interviews are not so much about your skills and what you bring to the table but weather they like you as a person . The working world is full of fearful people who have something lose. Most of my best interviews I got nothing but some interviews that really did not go well. I got the job .
I had a somewhat similar experience but with Apple. Already had a mental pivot, there are other amazing up and coming companies out there…
I am sorry you had to go through that. Big companies are going through a layoff spree right now and seem somewhat unstable.
I'd say take a couple of days to take care of yourself (treat yourself) and try again. Also take the positive interviews as a good sign that you interview well. It's just hard to land a role now as a ton of people are doing the same, and employers are being really picky right now (to the point of having fake job listings).
I've been looking for stable work for the past year (technically 2 as my last role didn't work out). The closest thing I've almost landed didn't want to pay for anything (had to in the end reject the offer as the pay was too low).
Email the recruiter before your meeting and ask if they can gather feedback from the people who interviewed you, as well as anything they thought you could have done better. That way next time you interview with them you can study those areas in advance to be more prepared.
Keep ya head up some people have interviewed several times with various companies before getting in to one that initially turned them down previously.
dont take it personally! interviews and job hunting is numbers game. apply for multiple positions, multiple companies and keep applying until you get what you want.
Googe used to be one of my top FAANG companies to work for but have you been seeing the articles & writings on the wall? They're not doing good & I am surprised that they are somehow still hiring when they've been laying off by the thousands. how does that make sense?
My interview went on for 8 months.
I had loop divided in 2 days, they did 2 interviews the first day and right before my interview started next day they said interviewer is not available and they will reschedule. Then a week later they rejected me saying requirements have changed.
2 months later they reached out with another position that was very similar, said we'll consider the 2 interviews that you did last time as your feedback was great. This time I gave next 2 interviews. For one interview recruiter said hiring manager would ask 2-3 questions I was asked 8 questions, My interview was on Friday and the other interviewer went on indefinite leave on Monday without giving my feedback. 2 weeks later this 2nd position was closed as well due to change in requirements.
3 months later recruiter reached out with a 3rd position again similar to first 2 that I was interviewed for and said you don't need to go though procedure again, your feedback looks great but I don't have feedback for last interview yet as that person is still on leave so we'll have to wait for that. After a month of constant follow up, he agreed to setup that last interview again. At this point it all just felt like a formality because Google kept on coming back saying your feedback is great, I had even passed hiring manager round, the interview that was left was just a mix of some theory and code.
I did the last interview again only to received a rejection email 1 week later.
So recruiters play a major role in interview journey. Make sure you understand what they have to offer, ask as many questions as possible, and if you feel you are not getting right help ask Google to change your recruiter.
In my case my recruiter didn't know what was needed from role , candidate and interviewer. I feel if I had a different recruiter my story would have been different.
Sorry to read you got a no. You've gained a huge amount of experience going through the interview process. Take a break, refresh, recharge and start again.
You should be proud of the fact you made it that far in their interview process! Most people don't get a callback and fewer make it through the first round. Be proud of that as you go into other interviews! Also, working for these giant tech companies isn't worth it these days, unless you're in it purely for the money.
In my opinion there is a level of humanity beyond which I never go. Recruitment processes are not about love and honesty, it is a game of wasting money and time. The truth is the companies see only potential profit from us, and if it's any "no" in the recruitment processes form recruitment manager, they send to us regular feedback and you can't do nothing with that. I have my super tip which helps me every time when I am rejected: I think about the value I have and which I can give to my next work company.
I can completely relate. I've had a similar experience with a late round interview. I have enough self awareness to know if I bombed. But I really thought I nailed it. The recruiter said they really enjoyed the conversation and were impressed with my work. At the end of the day, there are infinite human conditions to the interview process.
I'm not in your field as I'm in environmental engineering. I've been looking for work for six months, unemployment is done, and prospects are bleak. Was told by one company they would be extending an offer but that was eight weeks ago.
It could be worse. Health and family are all in one piece so that is the only thing that matters. Google made a mistake as others have with me.
You got this! Time to give it everything you got for five minutes. When those five minutes are up......do it again!
You will get where you deserve to be and you will be happy with how things turn out.
Best of luck!
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that really counts.
