Not the free consultation. I mean, it's fine with me. But sometimes they feel so entitled that they even forget to thank you.

Oh no no. You must not be serious right now. Hahaha. I know this is a joke but it is not far from real life.

Yes!! The most demanding and time consuming clients. They are often the ones who wraps up the session by asking about "free consultation". I wanna cry lol.

Hello!

I finished my final round(s) for a TAM position at 
Google (GCP) last week and was told by my recruiter that my feedback was great and that I made a solid impression on the team and am "firmly in the running". I was supposed to hear back this week (according to the recruiter) but he just told me that it's still in the process and that I'll have to wait for another week or so.

Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.
