How can I work in Google?

First of all, learn about public companies:

Google has always been the top company in the world, and behind Google's popularity is a more critical, arduous and intense job search. The criterion of recruitment is no longer whether you are qualified for the job, but whether you are good enough.

At the beginning of 20 10, a hot event occupied the important pages of many media including China and the United States. That is, at 3: 03 a.m. Beijing time on March 23rd, chief law officer david drummond, senior vice president of Google Company, made a public statement, announcing that his search business had withdrawn from the mainland of China and his search service had been transferred from the mainland of China to Hongkong.

There is no doubt that Google has always been the top company in the world. As an Internet giant, its momentum has not diminished in recent years. From the perspective of job seekers, Google is a pearl on the top of the mountain. That's where the smartest people do the coolest things.

Recently, Fortune magazine announced 65,438+000 companies that were the best places to work in 2065,438+03, and Google ranked first, which is the fourth time that Google has won this title. The benefits provided by Google are envied by people outside the company: delicious organic food, lovely roadside equipment, free washing machine, free foreign language classes, free car wash and oil change. In 20 12, Google added three fitness centers and provided employees with more than 654.38+10,000 hours of free massage service. You may be surprised at this. Oh, my God, is this the company? !

Of course, behind Google's popularity is a more critical, more arduous and more active job search. The criterion of recruitment is no longer whether you are qualified for the job, but whether you are good enough. Obviously, most job seekers are capable. Sadly, most of your competitors are also capable, so you should do better.

Is it really so amazing? The answer is yes. Because the ultimate goal of this book is not to ensure your immediate success, but to keep a clear head and respond flexibly to challenges in the rapidly changing business society. Or, let you see where the sword is.

In view of these thorny issues, the author can be roughly divided into two categories. One is the estimation problem. For example, how much ice cream does Shanghai sell every year? Do you feel unable to answer? The author thinks that such an estimation problem actually has great advantages. Entrepreneurs must estimate the market, cost and profit, but employers find it difficult for many job seekers to apply what they have learned to the real world.

Another kind of interview questions examines the innovative ability of job seekers. Guildford, an American psychologist, believes that when divergent thinking is manifested as external behavior, it represents a person's creative ability. The author summarizes it as the ability to combine novelty and practicality in a specific social background.

Secondly, try the following methods:

1, find a reliable reference:

When recommending to HR, you need to fill in a lot of information, such as whether this person is familiar with it, how capable it is, and the resume mentioned by the recommender is the key for HR to comprehensively consider whether to give you an interview opportunity.

2. Get an interview:

As the wave breaker said, if you brush an online judge such as leetcode to a topic within 10 to 15 minutes, the code will be concise (if you always write 40 lines ... it must be too late) and there will be no bugs (or there will be no bugs that the interviewer can see in a few minutes, but after the interview, they will review the code and write comments, so try not to have bugs. Looking at the decoding interview, I feel that the problem is slightly familiar ... I passed the code ~ decoding also helps the interviewer to see if there are any missing knowledge points, so this kind of book must be read.

3, interview skills:

Having competition experience such as ACM is neither a sufficient condition nor a necessary condition for entering Google. Many experienced Daniel also knelt down in the interview. The main problem lies in communication with the interviewer. Whether the interviewer is willing to do something with the interviewee is also one of the factors to consider when grading. When asking questions, don't stop thinking and do it. You can also take the initiative to ask whether you want to consider various situations, whether you can assume XX conditions, etc. (of course, don't say hello.

Listen to questions > ask questions > think about ideas > discuss ideas with the interviewer > write answers > find bugs > discuss your answers with the interviewer.

Interviewers are all living people, so we must communicate more and express our ideas more. Don't keep thinking without an idea. You can ask for tips and deduct points, but it's better than no time.

4, the face is basically resigned ... but there are still some tips:

You can ask the HR interview results. If it doesn't meet the requirements, see if DEV can change to test or office. If the interview is acceptable but not completely qualified, you may get other positions or other office interviews. ...

Most importantly, don't be afraid to vote for Google. Once the background is recognized by HR (it doesn't need to be particularly good), the interview ability can be trained like the examination ability. Put your spoon-feeding ability into it.
