What is the best strategy for getting to the interview stage at Google? I’m finding this really difficult when you are only allowed to apply to three jobs per month ☹️ Any tips Google ?

Helps if the recruiter knows your name and is willing to help you out. Doesn’t matter if you clear the process or not, ensure that you make good connections with the recruiter that you can later leverage

I would second this. I did really well on my first on-site interviews and my recruiter set up a call and asked if she could share my profile with others. That’s actually how I got my second interview although I didn’t get to on-site that time.

Referrals likely help. I’ve applied to 3 and have interviewed twice.

If you're being challenged by the 3 jobs per month thing, I would think the implication is you don't have a narrow enough focus on roles you want to apply for. Are you just applying to unrelated roles that look interesting? Because that looks kind of bad from the recruiter's POV.

If you struggle passing pre screening, probably it's because you are applying to roles with too much competition, either in terms of brand and years of experience. If you have a specialist consultant profile, it's easier to make the cut for specific roles (I joined as HR consultant, two friends of mine one as Finance consultant and the other as Cloud consultant). I have been slightly "down leveled", but I managed to get in in a time frame right for me. Trade offs worth considering

I have been at Google for a while, and I know leveling criteria from my former company. I got 1 level lower (also know people with same background and title that got 2 levels more) , but I am OK with that considering the opportunity

Hello all!

Am I correct in my understanding that:

Over a certain income ($76k as of 2021), a single person CANNOT make tax-free contributions to a traditional IRA if you have a workplace retirement plan?

In my example, I have a work 401k, and my adjusted gross income is over (or just about hovering) at the 76k limit. This means I can't make pre-tax contributions to a traditional IRA, so I should just go for a Roth?

How do firms calculate how much parental leave to provide, either paid or unpaid. Or do they just pick a number, like “yeah they can get to know their kid in a few weeks and I couldn’t possibly have that attorney out for 12 weeks?” I’m at a small firm, no FMLA or state requirement. We get four weeks paid and four weeks unpaid. Would like to push for more but not sure how to argue costs side of it.
