Ask HN: I'm offered interview by Google for internship that I never applied

Recently, I got an email asking me to schedule a phone interview with a Google recruiter on a position that I kind of never applied. In fact, this year, I never directly applied to Google on any positions. What I vividly remembered was just sending my resume to a Google Form from Google to their career talk in my country. So here I am, should I give it a try even if I don't really interested in the nature of work of this internship position?

Further information: I'm a CS-student that doesn't like to do marketing work and they offered "Business Intern" interview offer.

I too was reached out like for for their Software Engineer and Software Engineer in Test roles. Honestly it was an experience both good and bad. Plus, I enjoy flying so I got a free trip out of it.

Also for me, every interview I had after my Google one felt like a cake walk.

Whatever you do with it, congrats for being reached out to. You don't know what you did but you were doing it right ;)
