Posts of people crying so much about not getting hired by a company (usually Google) are top cringe.

It's like writing on Facebook that you feel miserable because a girl rejected you.

Just move on, kid.

This is exactly what I thought when I heard about this guy. He's undervaluing himself bigly. If you obsess over one company, or girl, or whatever else, you take all of your own power away and hand it over to chance. An interview or conversation could fall through for any reason at all. Meanwhile if you're intense enough to study algorithms for 8 months you can probably get a pretty good job at any number of places without wrecking your self-worth if you get rid of the tunnel vision.

I respect a lot of awesome work from Google. But this is just really bad press.

Not that Google initiated this kind of cult in the first place, the spontaneous worship is a little overwhelming TBH.

I don't even understand this kind of cult, Google is a shady company and most of the software from them I've ever used was of a substandard quality

Google is HUGE company, to the point, I won't assume people from Google actually sharing anything except the fact they are from Google. There are awesome people doing world changing stuff, also common programmers doing routine work. I think a lot of people just assume they join Google they will automatically be promoted to the first league, which is not true according to my observations.

This is bad press for the candidate, not Google. They dodged a bullet.

In this case it's interesting considering the back story.
