Overall, the worst experiences I've had have been the three (or is it four?) failed google interviews

I've never applied to Google

But have interviewed there several times

The last time was for a cloud architect / customer onboarding presales enigneer role ... and (though they contacted me, with my resume in hand) they were upset I didn't already have GCP experience

The other times, though, I failed their tech screen because I asked clarifying questions and/or answered in a way that wasn't on the script

And the people who did the interviews were completely incapable of providing clarification, or understanding that what I told them was not only valid, but could also be superior to what they had on their script
