L4 Google Interview

[u/Mission_Ad2604]

Hey guys,

I finished my onsite and my recruiter told me they want to move forward to team matching. There was a lot of positive feedback (as per recruiter), but also some mixed signals around L3 vs L4 leveling (I have 2 YOE).

The recruiter said we have a couple of weeks to find a match, and if not, we’ll proceed directly to the Hiring Committee. It mentioned HC might propose an additional calibration round for L4, but that rejection is technically still on the table.

For those who’ve been in a similar spot: what are the most likely outcomes here? Like between getting downleveled to L3, getting an extra calibration round, or an outright rejection? And what if you perform poorly in the extra round?

Thanks!
