I recently interviewed for L7 EM at Google and had 4 great interviews and one not so great system design. I submitted external referrals all of which gave great feedback. The recruiter said the next step is team match/interviews and then the HC. Anyone in a similar situation? What was the result? Google

Can’t pay for the taxes +fees with points. For emirates business class seat I just took it was 150k points and extra $1000 for taxes and fees
Also that amount is completely dependent on the location you fly into and the airline. United fees can be as little as $30 extra
Gotcha! Did not know that was for taxes and fees thanks for clarifying
The taxes, fees, and fuel surcharges vary wildly between airlines and programs. Sometimes it’s better to pay more miles to not pay fuel surcharges. For example:
Lufthansa business class: 40k Asiana miles+900$ vs 88k united +$5.60
Similarly with a few exceptions don’t go anywhere near British airways. Emirates and ANA also just jacked up their fees/fuel surcharges.
CSP I only had 1 flight option so that was the only choice I had I think, unless I missed another way to book for better value
