Preparing Your CV/Resume Your resume is our very first impression of you. To make sure that you present yourself as best as possible, click on the tabs below for some general tips on cv/resume content and submission. CV/Resume Submission Submit your resume in PDF or Microsoft Word formats. Text formats are also acceptable. All resumes and related materials (transcripts, portfolios, etc.) should be submitted in English. General Information Include only essential personal information: email, phone, city, and state of residence. Also, be sure to include your name and how to contact you in the resume, not just your cover letter. Do NOT include your gender, date of birth, age, family status, military status, citizenship status or personal identification numbers. If you use acronyms, spell them out once unless they are well known in industry. Educational background Make sure your CV/resume accurately reflects your academic achievements and accomplishments. Include the full name of all post-secondary institutions attended, degrees conferred, and a cumulative grade point average (if available) for each degree received. Report your college/university-level education. However, feel free to include any "year abroad" programs as part of your pre-university education. Provide a brief description of projects you completed related to the position for which you are applying. Work Experience Even if you're fresh out of college or university, we want to know what skills you've acquired along the way. We'll look closely at the work experience section of your resume, so the information you provide here is very important. Provide your job title, employer name and dates of employment. Provide a brief description of the companies you have worked for especially if they are not well known. Provide your specific “key accomplishments” in each role. Include bulleted, concise, and specific key accomplishments and the impact your efforts had on your company. For engineering resumes, please include the programming languages and tools used for each. Mention any of your jobs while attending college/university, either during the summer or concurrent with your coursework, even if it isn’t specifically related to a potential job at Google. Customize your resume by highlighting the skills that are relevant to the position. Additional Information Tell us what makes you unique! Here at Google, we value talent and intelligence, group spirit and diversity, creativity and idealism. Googlers range from former neurosurgeons and puzzle champions to alligator wrestlers and Lego maniacs. Include any awards received, articles published, conference presentations given, or professional organizations you are involved in (ie. SWE, IEEE, ACM, etc.). We don't need to see copies of awards or publications, just a reference to them. You can also include personal projects related to the position. Preparing for Your Interview As you prepare for your interview, don’t stress. Why sweat the small stuff when you can change the world, challenge the status quo, impact millions of peoples' lives? We're doing this every day and want to enlist as many people as possible in our quest to do more. How We Interview At Google, every candidate goes through both manager and peer interviews. While conventional interviews normally have a single hiring manager make or break a hiring decision, Google values both peer and manager feedback. In fact, candidates also interview with at least one Googler who works in a completely different department to ensure that we’re hiring someone who is a great fit for the company overall. Here are some general tips to follow as you prepare for your interview: Know what interests you about Google and why you’ve applied. Get to know Google’s products and services. Research our competitors. If you are interviewing for a software engineering or technical role, be ready to answer high-level technical questions on data-structures and algorithms. We would like you to code up your answers on boards with our engineers. Familiarize yourself with the job description you are interested in. If you are interviewing for a software engineering role then you may first want to visit the website www.topcoder.com. Please launch the “Arena” widget and go to the practice rooms where you can solve problems in the first and second division. Make sure that you substantiate anything your CV/resume says – for instance, if you list Java or Haskell as your key programming language, questions about this are fair game and may be asked of you.
