CV sent in. Phone interview, then in person interview. Waited about a week, then got a phone call, followed up with email confirming offer of employment. Started two weeks later.

A few weeks ago, I received a call from Google for an interview for the role of Janitor. Excited and a bit intimidated (I mean, it’s Google!), I prepared myself for what could be a very thorough and unique interview process. Round 1: Phone Screening The recruiter asked some basic questions like: “Why do you want to be a janitor at Google?” “Can you tell me about a time when you had to solve a problem under pressure?” I gave an example of how I once unclogged a sink during a high-stakes office party without anyone noticing. They seemed impressed.

Great, open, honest process. Transparent and clear. Timeline about what to expect was good, benefits and upward mobility even for a janitor was nice. Looking forward to seeing what happens with everything else.
