I'm not feeling so lucky!

Why why why?????
Why do I have to mess up Qs that I can answer articulately 
after a little thinking?????
That too when the interviewer is from Google??!!!

This is how it should be:
you give the test -- you clear the test -- you proceed for a short round of HR interview -- you clear that -- you proceed to the technical round -- and after a long gruelling session of bombardments you screw up
Now that's okay!

and not:
you give the test -- you clear the test -- you proceed for a short round of HR interview -- you screw up a simple Q. like "What brings you here?" with a twisted answer .. something you never intended to say in the first place!!

talk about your interest in web and how crawlers work and how page rank works .. and the fact that why your blogpage is not being crawled even if it has been on the net for quite a few months now .. and maybe you could find an answer to that and deploy some techniques to finally have it figured in the search results!! (even though that would mean going in the direction they're trying to prevent .. but you have to think like a criminal to know the criminal)
 
So even if you're actually not v.happy with the job profile and no career growth in the area you eventually desire and them not disclosing the package and it not being Google Engg. itself and  just completed 2 years of its existence and relocation being a problem for a year or two ("because that's a big concern for us" .. "of course sir!") and no transfers being allowed between Google's SQE operations and Google Engg.
that doesn't mean you can screw up like that!! :(

Well ofcourse I'm not expecting a call anyways .. mostly due to relocation problem .. but you know what .. Google Engg. , they said, is hiring in a big way and we can apply to it .. its a great piece of news .. but I'm still not feeling lucky!
