Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

ecently, have seen 5+ posts on LinkedIn, about Google hiring for different products like gen ai, security and education. 

In job portal, they haven't mentioned about MBA or any specific requirement apart from yoe. Wanted to know, what does Google wants in a PM, and what is the salary range for a PM there, if they need a 4 year experienced product manager?


Also, how are these criterias soft or quite rigid?

Product Manager

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?

Google APM India 2024 Role - Not getting a response from recruiter

Hi everyone, I got my answer in my previous post, I have another query, I have around 2 year of experience, I am going to have a 30 minutes Phone screen, first call with HR, she said it’s going to be just casual talks, what can I expect in that call? If any idea, please share.

Also, I did fair amount of CP and DSA during college days, it’s been a while and I need to brush up my problem solving skills, so if she asks how much do you want before scheduling your first interview, asking for how much time is safe?

Also, Please share some important topics which I should be focusing on the most, Thank you! I also bought LC premium to prepare for this, read a lot of positive reviews about it.

Looking forward to hearing replies from you, Thank you!

Preparation for machine learning role at Google. What is the interview format?

Has anyone given google's domain round for Android dev profile?

Google Interview

Hi. I have my interviews with Microsoft  and Google for sde2 roles. My primary reason of switch is hybrid work mode since GS has 5 days WFO. Are all teams at Google and Microsoft still hybrid? Which is better for long term stay?

Need help!!

Is it a good time for early in career(1.5 YoE) to join Google India. I am curious about their current culture like WFH policies, management outlook, direction of company, growth opportunity etc in Bangalore offices only.

What can you tell as an insider to someone on the outside looking at Google for possible next switch.

Also, are there opportunities to shift from Bangalore to other location outside India?

Folks at GoogleIndia, what can you share?

L62 at Microsoft. Looking to switch to Google because of the better brand and frankly better products. Does anyone know if it's common for Google to hire from Microsoft & if so what's the process like?

How does MSFT to GOOG look?

A woman from my company, SDE 1, laid off after going through PIP, secured a job at Google. On the contrary, one of my friends who recently interviewed with Google got grilled with leet code hard questions. Can anyone shed some light on the level of difficulty of the Google diversity hiring interviews.

How lineantly Google does diversity hiring?

For the coming cycle, are Google and Microsoft planning to hire interns or FT freshers from on-campus recruitment? Microsoft did a aggressive intern hiring last time. Google went on freeze quite early on. Have things changed in terms of hiring interns and freshers?

How are things at Google and Microsoft?

I have worked at Microsoft for a year at L59, got the job through campus selection. 
Despite of a lot of hard work, my manager said there is not much hope to promote me to L60 even after 6 more months.
I landed an offer in Google, with 25 percent increase in inhand salary and almost same valued stock component as in my current CTC.
Despite of the salary change being so good, I’ve had people telling me that this is not a good time to switch to Google because:
1. The laying off secenario at Google 
2. The work life balance has become terrible there in the past year
3. There is a lot of office politics there, so bad working environment in general 
4. Microsoft Stocks have a lot more potential than Google stocks

Please share your opinions on Google vs Microsoft.
Thanks.

How are the associate product manager interviews different at MNCs (Microsoft/Gartner) from startups?

I am originally from a small town and did my BSc in Computer Science. My relatives and neighbours used to say that I am a good for nothing freeloader who is a "nikamma" - unemployed. It was very hard to find a job back then and I used to have deep anxiety about it. My only dream was to get my fathers appreciation. He is my biggest hero. 

So I started preparing very hard and practiced my skills. The only one who supported me was my mother who used to give me tea even at 3 in the morning while I used to study. Even my own father gave up on me and from time to time he used to say that if you are living under my roof then you have to follow my rules. He also used to say that look at the neighbour's ladka who got a government job and he asked me to prepare for Bank PO.

So I moved out from my town and shifted to Gurgaon where I got a small PG with some money that my mother had given me. I also started freelancing on Fiverr and which led me to improve my communication skills. Finally, when I got my Google offer letter I felt like I made it. It was the best response to all the taunts by people around me. 

I suddenly became a superstar in my town with people congratulating my parents. I bought my mother gold bangles and dad a new watch with my first salary. I was looking at my offer letter today and it reminded me of all the hardwork I did to achieve this moment.

This is the story of my life. In case anyone needs help. I am ready to provide support to aspirants here as a way to give back.
