What is the appropriate way of asking for feedback between and after interview rounds at Google? Is this customary?

You can ask but it’s unlikely they’ll give you much. It’s generally against the guidelines

I couldn’t even get feedback for candidates I’ve referred to

In terms of recruiter feedback (which at most places is a policy of “we can’t give feedback”) Google is the closest to an actual direct answer I’ve ever gotten.

During my first round of interviews (which I didn’t pass) I was told that the HM was looking for experience X and I leaned too much into experience Y and they ended up going with someone who happened to discuss more of X in their interviews.

I was completely surprised they actually told me this lol idk if that’s bc I was a good candidate and the recruiter wanted to keep me in the pipeline (which they did and I was ultimately hired).

Yes whenever I asked for feedback from interviews, Google is the only one that gave me the most details and insights.
