Probably not the wisest decision but if anyone from Google working as an account strategist or any adjacent role would be a referral for me I would highly appreciate it! I've worked as a vendor strategist before and have recently left in hopes of achieving my dream of reaching Noogler status. For the past 7 months I've been applying with no luck even after 3 interviews. Each time, they ask "do you have a referral?" and each time I say no. If you are feeling generous I could use your help:)

Not wisest decision to refer you?

Are the people you worked with directly unwilling to refer you? Why?

I’m also curious about whether this is something that I should just discuss with my recruiter directly?

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!
