Google team mapping

Hi Folks, I applied for L5 MLE at Google Banglore and completed my 3 Coding, 1 ML System Design and Googleyness & Leadership interview before mid-May. The recruiter communicated the feedback for each round as "GOOD", not revealing the Lean/Strong-Hire counts even after being asked, saying those are for internal only. For further process, the recruiter communicated that Team Matching could take time as the current openings already have candidates mapped for Team Matching. I haven't been scheduled for even 1 Team Matching call. And, on follow-ups, I get the answers "No new updates" or "Nothing so far". Is this expected, given BLIND is filled with posts reflecting Google is on a hiring spree in Banglore? Or is this a soft reject? Or, to a stretch, the hiring season at Google India is over with no new openings? A hiring freeze.

Hey, So I completed my prelims round @google , cleared it completed 3/5 and its been almost 10 days - haven't heard back from my recruiter. I have just one point of contact, so feeling kinda helpless as to whom I can reach out to. Like i followed up thrice now over a period of one week - very respectfully. I mean its my dream role and honestly, every day not getting any response is honestly painful - even If I didn't make it - At least I should hear back right? and I understand the number of applications must be extremely high - but still the process should be somewhat smooth right? Its Google after all. Any suggestions on how to tackle the above situation?

I gave an interview in google for the Test lead position in the last week of May and completed three rounds of the interview, But I didn't get any feedback from the recruiter. When I try to call the recruiter she is not responding. Is this expected?

Hi all, I am trying to get into google as a Product Analyst and there’s an active role at Google I applied and also reached out to the hiring manager. The hiring manager told me he’s getting my application routed to him but then he ghosted me It’s been over a month. Should I assume a rejection? I don’t know what’s the status of my application #Google #ProductAnalyst

I am done with all technical rounds but HR is taking too long to respond with the results. It has been 2 weeks. What to do?

I cleared all 6 rounds of a PM interview with an Edtech startup. The HR asked for current offer letter, 2 references (current and previous manager), and a couple of other docs. Then ghosted me for 2 weeks. When I followed up, the HR said they are in-process of interviewing other candidates Is it normal to do this now a days? I understand the company wants to interview more people. But then why ask for any details from me till you are sure that you are going to give an offer

I have been interviewed by Akamai recently. After a phone call with HR, they scheduled an interview and it went pretty well. The interview was positive and the interviewer explained to me about the next round's process. It's been 2 weeks since the interview and there's no follow up from HR on this. Am I ghosted or is it normal?

Just trying to understand what could be the reasons behind this?
