Google harasses anyone with a live linkedin profile.
Getting to an onsite interview is a different matter though.
I know 3 people at google, all senior, either SE or people managers.
None had brilliant academic records.
One took almost 10 years to finish his sociology adjacent undergrad.
He's the most "successful" and has been there for almost 15 years, 10 in the states.
The others have been there for like 5.
Make of this info what you wish...
None had impressive intelligence either.
