<p>ryankrucker: it is not true at all that this internship is exclusively for URM. I am a white female and just finished finals rounds last Friday. While I don’t know yet if I will receive an offer I do know that if I have made it this far, then that cannot be true. What is valid is that this internship is very concerned with your leadership skills and your commitment and concern for diversity (cultural, ethnic, academic background etc.) as an important aspect of fostering creativity. Even as a white female from the upper middle class this is something I strongly believe in and have demonstrated through a bunch of projects I have worked on with multicultural teams with teammates across the world.</p>
<p>I’m more than sure that he wasn’t saying it was exclusively for minorities, but attending an HBCU and talking to Google personally, they are targeting minorities more now than ever. They’ve been at my school literally every other week this school year recruiting.</p>
<p>Exactly. In addition to that. Google considers women a minority in the technology industry, which they are.</p>
<p>@ashgillysays What school do you attend? (Just Curious)</p>
<p>as an Asian male I guess all hope is lost then. It was kind of weird because I didn’t get the confirmation for the submission of my application until early February… ← did this happen to you guys?</p>
<p>finished my phone interview with sales, went longer than planned which was great. hope to hear back soon.</p>
<p>I applied in January, the day before the application was supposed to close but was contacted on Tuesday about an interview. I have two phone interviews with Product Marketing tomorrow!</p>
<p>So I guess don’t completely give up hope, some departments are still contacting people.</p>
<p>uktony, how did your interview go? I applied in December, but I haven’t received any letters of communication. I suppose that’s good? At least I haven’t been rejected.</p>
<p>@puffs024, same here, applied before priority deadline, still no word. I’m thinking I’m just going to move on and take one of my other offers.</p>
<p>some of my friends who all did the freshman bold immersion program last summer received an offer from Google today. maybe they are interviewing those people first and then getting back to the rest of us later?</p>
<p>anyone hear anything recently?</p>
<p>did anyone else have their interviews back to back?</p>
<p>I just got an interview for marketing so keep checking your email! For some reason it was flagged as spam so I didn’t see it until just now so make sure to check!</p>
<p>so i applied before the priority deadline and haven’t heard anything. i just was accepted at another (very) competitive internship program that wants me to commit ASAP. do you all think it is worth it to hold out to hear about an interview with Google, or should I commit to the other company ASAP? this isn’t really a matter of preference - both are excellent programs - i’m just wondering if waiting is worth it, possibly at the risk of losing my place in the other program.</p>
<p>anyone heading to NYC this week for on-site final round interviews? let me know.</p>
<p>Still haven’t heard anything. What’s up?</p>
<p>I am patiently waiting as well. I am actually curious to know have anyone had an interview for the K-12 Department</p>
<p>Anyone else hear back from the Canada offices for the BOLD program?</p>
<p>I’m almost starting to think that a message landed in my spam mail and I didn’t check it in time (before auto-delete in 30 days). Still hopeful/waiting!</p>
<p>Im thinking Google is smart enough to keep their own recruiting emails out of their own system’s spam filter (presuming we’re all using gmail, at least as the email on our apps to google lol) </p>
<p>Then again I would also hope they were able to respond a bit faster…
Google losing its start up like agility ? another sign! :/</p>
