Interview
The interview process was very smooth from start to finish and they moved rather quickly in the process as well. The initial contact began with a recruiter, followed by an interview with a potential peer, and then was invited to an onsite interview with 4 panel members (through Google Hangouts). Super friendly individuals, however, i didn't really get a good vibe from the interviewers except during my informal interview with a potential peer. Overall great process, but probably wouldn't spend time or preparation doing it again.

Interview
Participé en un proceso de selección con Google para la posición de People Consultant. Aunque finalmente decidieron avanzar con un perfil con un background más tecnológico, la experiencia fue excelente.
Me encantó formar parte del proceso, avanzar en las distintas fases y, sobre todo, la cercanía y empatía del equipo de selección. Una vez tomada la decisión, el recruiter agendó una videollamada para explicarme personalmente los motivos, lo que demuestra la calidad humana y el respeto con el que gestionan sus procesos. Fue una experiencia muy positiva y enriquecedora.
