I got interviewed by Google twice, started by direct invitation from their HR team as I never applied to Google, naturally I bombed both times as I am not the PhD kind of developer they are after.

In every single time their recruiters were telling me our wonderful my CV was and they wanted definitely to have me there, naturally with a selection role totally unrelated for the kind of positions that I was applying for.

The third time I got a direct invitation from their HR team, I made it clear I wasn't interested if it was going to be again the same old way. Never got contacted again.

Recruiter's job is to get you there at any costs. I've being told before that cool team A,B and C wants to talk to me just to find that some boring team D is interviewing me.

Google stands on feet of clay
