I was contacted by a Google recruiter via email and a phone interview was scheduled for later that week. The scheduled time came and went... no call. I emailed the recruiter later that day and they said that they had some job training for the next few days, but that they would contact me in about three days. Three days came and went... no contact. After this second failure to contact me when the recruiter said they would, I questioned whether or not this was an actual Google recruiter. Frustrated, I left the prospect of a google job behind for a couple weeks. I then reached out to the Google recruiter again via email. We scheduled a phone interview for the next day. No joke, the interview time came and went, once again, without a call. The phone interview was cancelled and rescheduled two more times over the next couple days. Finally, the phone interview happened. It lasted about 15 min. Basic questions about my resume and behavioral things. The call concluded with the recruiter telling me that they thought I would be a good candidate, but they already filled the spots for this wave of hiring for this position. "Maybe if you had succeeded in contacting me a month ago when you said you would, I would have had one of those spots", I thought to myself. They then said they will contact me in a few weeks when it is time to hire the next group of people. Given my experience with this recruiter I highly doubt this will happen, but miracles do occur.
