<p>I had two back to back phone interviews, and the recruiter emailed me after saying that i should hear back if i got an in-person interview. I got the call on Friday, expecting it was for another interview, but it was the offer instead. i’m not sure how they decide how to interview, but i think i was a rare case. maybe they are really behind in the process.</p>

<p>anyway, the interviewers were really laid back, and asked me questions about my experiences, and also about products that i like and how they can be improved. they also gave me a “mini-case” for how to market a given product. overall, not too challenging, but you have to know your google products well. there were no “brain teaser” questions either.</p>

<p>you can private message me if you have any further questions! i hope i helped; i was also really curious before my interview and it would have been nice to have people provide more detailed info as reference.</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>That’s awesome! Wish I had a referral though. Where did you get one? Are they still available? Is it a BOGO deal? Are they available in multiple colors?</p>

43

<p>still nothing on my end. AHHHHHHHHH! I just want to know SOMETHING!!!</p>

44

<p>I just got an email saying that I was selected for the first interview round! The interviews will be with the PQO team. I’m so excited!</p>

<p>Does anyone have any advice on how to prepare for these interviews? Thanks!</p>

45

<p>Good luck!</p>

46

<p>yay livingadream! good luck.</p>

<p>still nothing on my end. trying not to get my hopes up or down… sigh</p>

47

<p>good luck living! by the way, what is the PQO team? i’m not sure what PQO stands for.</p>

48

<p>PQO = Product Quality Operations. It is a pretty cool team that deals with quality assurance (QA) and fights fraud.</p>

<p>Received the rejection email today. I applied in early November.</p>

50

<p>Sorry to hear about that, Senior. </p>

<p>I still haven’t head anything either. I guess no news is better than bad news?</p>

51

<p>Still haven’t gotten rejected yet. One of my friends from my school today recently got rejected.</p>

<p>But currently, I have an offer from American Express that expires March 15th. It’s a really good opportunity and I don’t want to lose it, but obviously I prefer Google. Can I e-mail them and give them this information to find out what’s up?</p>

52

<p>In their FAQ they say if you have a competing offer you can email them. Go check the google bold FAQ for more info</p>

53

<p>Would you mind posting a link to that FAQ? Cuz I couldn’t find it.</p>

<p>Also I know this isn’t the right thread for this but, American Express Marketing in Corporate Services, PwC Management Consulting in Advisory, or a Google Internship - which one would ya’ll pick if you had all three offers?</p>

54

<p>“If you have a competing offer with a deadline before May 1, 2013, please email <a href="mailto:bebold@google.com”>bebold@google.com</a> to notify the BOLD team. While we may be unable to meet your deadline, we’ll do our best to expedite the process if possible."</p>
