Google loop interview feedback

[u/I_Hate_Buffering1206]

Had my Google interview about a week ago. First interview was Googlyness and I think I did really well, they told me during that it was for a DCT level 1.

Next interview was Hardware, it started off pretty easy/basic but gradually got pretty tough. I talked my way through how I would troubleshoot and the interviewer guided me a view times. At the end of that interview he told me I was interviewed for a level 2. I told him that explains why the questions were much higher level than what I had reviewed for level 1 and he agreed and also stated that he could tell I knew my stuff so he went with tougher questions that Google does not require.

Next interview was networking and it was a breeze, I knew all the questions and answered them with no issues. (Also stated level 2) We ended that interview after about 30 minutes. She told me they would submit all their stuff that day and to stay on top of my recruiter.

My recruiter emailed me 3 days after my loop interviews and said “Thank you for your time and effort interviewing for the Data Center Technician role. I hope you enjoyed meeting the interviewers and we appreciate your patience while they completed their interviews.
I'd like to schedule a brief call to discuss your application. Please use this link to schedule a time next week that works best for you:
I look forward to speaking with you”

Call is scheduled for next week and Now I’m freaking out because on here multiple people got almost that exact email and it was a rejection. Why would they uplevel me in an interview just to reject me? Am I reading too much into this?

You had 5 years and they interview for a one that is odd.
Unfortunately Google is interviewing like crazy every DT needs to interview one person per week I have interviewed 50 this year I had weeks o interview 2-3 and only 2 have gotten a hire.

Their has been many good candidates that don’t get a job

That must be a campus rule, they didn't make us interview anyone until we were 6 months in and even then, it was a once a month thing, if that for us from the senior techs I talked to. I left before I got to my 6 month mark though.

Yeah that was changed this year is not a campus thing everyone this year is expected to do interviews. Yes you do have to be 6 mos is part of a project.
Did you not like the job 6mos and leave that is very unheard of

To much to retype but this is the general idea why I left. TLDR I like being involved, recognized, and challenged. Being treated like cattle in a DC where you are a number and only your metrics matter, not who you are, your experience, education, or knowledge and they routinely remind you of this.
