Why is Google hiring process so shitty?

Now a days, candidate experience has been tossed out of window. Companies and Talent hunt team are expecting candidates to go through multiple rounds of interviews with no clarity on rounds held, with multiple reschedules and delays with lot of uncertainty. what grapeviners thoughts about it? is it fair to have this practice?

There is something wrong with Google india software engineer recruitments . Heard some of the recruitments are done under table dealings by recruiters

In last 30 days or so three times I was in the situation where hiring people said I will send your offer letter by eod, which obviously didn’t happen. In fact the position is kept on hold or priorities are changed. This is pretty frustrating as well as confusing. I’m not able to understand how these people decide things. Every time I was pushed to go through whole hiring process with multiple rounds of interviews as quickly as possible (within 10-15 days approx) and then suddenly nothing. I’m not sure why these peoples are wasting theirs as well as others time. This just feels stupid. How should I tackle this situation going forward?

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?

Can anybody working at Google India, throw some light on what’s happening with Hiring. Seeing some posts related to layoff, people interviewing, people getting ghosted by recruiters after interviews. I’ve seen few people waiting for their interview feedback for few weeks after completing their all interview rounds. Is google going to stop hiring or there are too many candidates applying? Any insights would be helpful. Thanks

Does Google blacklist you if you accepted the offer but didn't join ?

So recently I interviewed at Geekyants and it was horrible. I mentioned about my existing offer and what I wanted before the start of the recruiting process. They took a communication assessment, a coding assessment, two technical assessment and an HR assessment only to give me an offer of 8 lpa ( lower than the offer I had ) with freaking 18 months of bond. I remember mentioning that the offer I have is time bound and would appreciate if they fasten the process, I think they thought I would accept their offer given my urgency. Shit behavior.

There I said it. It sucks. The start is a joke - cause here's the plan - If you spend too much time on intros, and you wasting the so called "interview" time. And then you think I should save it for later, lets focus on the interview. so we move to the stinky middle - the interview part - a web of questions with the obvious non relevant ones in there - and for a fact you will still give a green light to folks by a measure of retention of knowledge, not by knowledge application - cause you give hints to solve the problem sparingly. Here's the fact about your measure of potential - Take away Google and ChatGPT from these managers, and more than half your team would crumble. Wouldn't they use it on everyday job? If yes, then why are you depriving them of it in the interview. You will ego battle them - Not answering most of their questions - cause you are not interviewing - you are an interviewer - and they are the interviewee.. or you will conveniently park the questions for later, until a hiring decision is formally made - so you save your time - I mean cmon! thats your game plan. And the closing: it’s usually a weak handshake or a sign off and a 'We’ll be in touch' OR 'HR will get back to you' CLASSIC. And yet.. you expect the job seekers to buy into their 'mission and vision' and become dedicated team member to "your" team. Seriously? CONVERSATION has a CON in it and you are doing it. + you cant hold it, even if your life depended on it. The only reason the job seeker turned up, and thanked you for your time after the interview - is cause they need a job and were polite. NOTHING ELSE. In a rare case - you really did a good job, and hence the "thank you" Podcast here - https://lnkd.in/gMe6v9hV
