Interview With Soo Lee @ Google

One mistake is fine. But do a thorough analysis.
Work productively.

Q1.

What part of you do you think makes you hired in Google? What part of the interviewee do you see in detail if you are an interviewer?

The person who perfoms good Phone and OnSite interview is the one with high priority. If the process of thinking is flexible, it is also strength of you. However, you should have no problem with personality.

Q2.

In Korea, Google Internship Recruit Program is now in progress. How is the recruitment of full-time employees after internships judged in major company like Google or IBM?

Every company different, but in Google, how you did your job and OnSite interview are the conditions. Generally, conversion rate is 60% ~ 70%, so internships can be easy way to hire.

Q3.

It began with a curiosity about the United States. I left my studies and went to PhD, but research did not fit my aptitude. I was interested in making service, so I dropped out and get a job. It would have been easier if I knew there was a way I could apply in Korea.

Q4.

I would like to know many things deeply, but I recommend doing various things.

The air is difference. Google is more dynamic than IBM because of age.

ACM-ICPC, GitHub are effective in hiring process. There are recruiter who are only looking at open source.

How do company decide what I do after joining a company and assigning a team?

Most of the time, I will be interviewing the team I will be going to. Google and Facebook match a team after team meeting. They do not forcibly fill their team.
