Every year, about 25 million applications come to Google from all over the world, and from there only 4 thousand applicants get jobs after the verification process! So, getting a job at Google is a dream for us, but it is not. Almost every year 15-20 lucky people from Bangladesh get a chance to work at Google. Let's find out how you can become one of the lucky ones.
Ways to get a job at Google:
CGPA does not mean everything
Google's vice president of human resources, Laszlo Bock, said, "Traditional educational qualifications are slowly becoming less important at Google. 14 percent of employees currently working at Google have no formal degree!”
A good CGPA definitely helps in getting a job in any organization, but Google verifies your work skills; Your educational qualification does not play a big role here.
Here is an interesting fact, if you apply to Google within three years of graduation, they will ask for your academic transcript and that information will be stored in Google's electronic records for life, but if you apply after three years, the transcript usually does not need to be submitted, it is of no use. !
So from the first row of the class to the last bench student – Google's doors are open to everyone if they have the skills. What skills are required to join Google?
Technical knowledge
1. Knowing how to code:
It is important to learn coding in any programming language very well. Like C++, Java, Python, etc.
2. Check the coding details:
Just knowing how to code is not enough. You must have the ability to verify the functionality of the code you develop. Must have a good understanding of coding bugs, running various tests and software modification methods, etc.
3. Know Parallel Programming:
Learning parallel programming is very important for working with tons of data at once on a computer.
3. Knowledge of Fundamentals of Mathematics:
Must have a basic understanding of abstract mathematics. Through this, knowledge of logical reasoning and mathematical continuity is acquired.
4. Know about the operating system:
Must have knowledge of various operating systems. However, Google will emphasize the work that you have special skills in.
5. Knowledge of Artificial Intelligence:
It is very important to know about Artificial Intelligence. Because currently there is great competition between technology companies to dominate this field.
6. Learning Structure of Compilers:
It is necessary to learn this to design high-quality languages for humans, to systematically construct more compatible program languages for machines, and to know the structure of compilers.
7. Understanding Algorithms and Data Sources:
Must have an understanding of sorting algorithms like Stacks, Bags, QuickSort, MergeMort, and HipSort along with Kiwi.
8. Know Cryptology:
Knowing about this is very important for cyber security.
So what technology can not be applied to Google? Not at all! Google values many other qualities besides technical knowledge.
The more skills, the more opportunities!
The heavier your resume, the more likely you are to get a job. Google gets 3000 applications every day, and it is not possible to call all of them for an interview. So the more you are involved in sports, recitals, debates, internships, writing, acting, various competitions, etc. in your student life, the more likely you are to get a job.
Leadership skills
Most of the work at Google is done in small teams, so you may have the responsibility of leading a team at any time.
Instead of conventional leadership, Google emphasizes the leadership quality of solving problems at the moment of need. So if you have led or managed anything in various clubs, organizations, sports teams, creative work, etc. in student life, it will be of great importance in Google.
Ability to learn quickly
There is a subtle difference between IQ and the ability to learn quickly. How to acquire knowledge of a subject without prior knowledge and how to implement it when necessary - these things are very well observed during interviews at Google.
Google has a strict stance on respecting the ideas and opinions of others
Even if many people have a high IQ, they panic in danger, while many people of normal intelligence know how to deal with problems with a cool head. So if you want to get a job at Google, you need to have the ability to understand a subject very quickly and put it into practice.
Teamwork
If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together.
The mental ability to work with a team is absolutely essential to work at Google. But the practice of this skill starts in childhood on the playground. Many people always think they are right, and if someone shows them wrong, they make unnecessary comments - no matter how good the results are, people with such a mentality will never get a chance in Google.
Show respect for other's opinions
When you work in a team, you will see many times, one person may have given an idea and everyone is laughing at it, the friend became completely silent after getting such ridicule from everyone, even if he is bombed in the stomach, no new idea can be brought out!
We all have more or less such experiences in our lives. Thus the practice of creativity, thinking "out of the box" is never possible. Therefore, Google's position is strict about respecting the ideas and opinions of others.
Now let's know how to apply to Google. Google regularly organizes recruitment competitions in different countries of the world. This online competition is held in different stages.
After passing the preliminary stage of the competition, the process of joining as a staff is completed through face-to-face interviews. 5-7 students from Bangladesh joined Google in this way in 2015. Apart from this, an internship or direct job application can also be made.
