I just received my offer last night. I hope I’m on the clear? Super excited about joining google

Too early to tell, but still reach out to your recruiter to check in. If the offer stands and you do end up accepting, don’t give your notice until you’ve signed your offer and cleared the background check.

I talked to my recruiter and I’m a bit worried now - I was asked if I could join 3 weeks earlier due to pressure from top to not keep the requisition open for long. I’m a h1b transfer case and don’t want to quit until everything is confirmed on google end.

We don’t know anything more at that point. However, I don’t think Google has ever done that before and it is REALLY bad press when a company do sp, so it would be surprising.

Note: I’m just a normal employee, so I could be wrong.

Highly doubt it’d be rescinded - the news just means there’ll be a less hiring of “critical” roles for the rest of the year. Tech roles will continue to hire at normal pace.

Announcement and article came out today about a hiring slowdown. No info yet on extended offers (to my knowledge)

Hiring freeze is NOT the same thing as hiring slowdown.
