Right then. Time for a plan!

If you didn't get my last post, well, I haven't got the job at Google. It would be *really* nice if I could get some feedback from them about why I wasn't successful, as as far as I was concerned my onsite interviews went fairly well. And this makes the 5th job I've now somehow fluffed. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong, it's quite disheartening.

So. I come back from Norway on the 2nd April, and need to get a job. Even just a temp one. So I'm going to be making a niiiiice long list of all my options, and try to come to some plan of action. The main problem is that I have zero money, so relocating anywhere is going to be difficult.

Does anyone have any ideas about where I can find a good job? A graduate scheme would be nice (although at this point in the year I'm guessing that's going to be highly unlikely :( ) but really anything that's A) somewhat intellectually stimulating and B) allows me to support myself financially will do. I'd appreciate any and all help on the issue.


Yohoho and bottle of rum.

I dunno.

Maybe it's the beard-y/shagginess? :P

j/k

My only suggestion would be my favorite computer company in the WORLD because, well... duh. But it would be a relocation gig.

I am here for moral support... or immoral support if that's more appriciated. :D

Well, I see some jobs at my company that might fit your bill, but like Gloria said, it requires relocation--in this case, to the U.S. If you are really interested, you know how to contact me.

Hello Ben,
I am a Computer Science student from Egypt and I have already passed my first phone interview with Google for the Associate Product Manager role. Can you give me some advice on the next two interviews and how to prepare for them

It was the technical interview. You flubbed too many questions. With a little preparation, I think you would have passed.
