I wouldn’t call it difficult - just that you have to go through 2 rounds. It’s not as easy as everyone makes it to be, but I’ve found managers and colleagues supportive when I tell them that I’m looking, and that’s way better than I’ve encountered previously

I heard it’s very difficult and it’s like interviewing with another company

It will depend on which S&O or BizOps team you want to join; e.g., Cloud S&O is likely easier than central BizOps

like

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?

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!
