Yeah, did the google interview late this summer and then they froze hiring. Got contacted by a recruiter from google last month. Told him I had already interviewed. He told me I should just wait until the freeze is over and not interview again.

The freeze has been over for weeks. I do an interview every week, and my team has two open roles right now.

Damn, ty for the heads up. Might be worth contacting my recruiter again then. Was for L4.

to be fair, I'm pretty sure Google was doing interviews even when things were completely frozen. I applied in May, did interviews in June/july, passed HC in July and was frozen out for months and months. Sounds like things are just starting to open back up.
