Google Update

Back in April I applied at Google to become a “Book Search Operations Technician” for their new Ann Arbor facility. I had an in-person interview in June, and two phone interviews in mid-July (same week as the “Day From Hell” post). Today I got an email from the recruiter stating that I didn’t get the job.

I have to say that I am not really impressed by their hiring process. I didn’t hear anything about my application (and actually forgot about it) until a recruiter contacted me in early June to set up the first interview. Also, unless I had a specific question, I got no feedback or response to my “just touching base” emails after the interviews. Granted, I didn’t make an extreme effort to keep in touch with them either, but it would have been nice if they had let me know what was going on, or what the next step in the process was. I feel kind of “led on” and like the last four and a half months were wasted on waiting for them to get back to me.

I guess this means I will be staying in Traverse City for awhile yet.
