Perhaps Google only wanted the people who specifically want to work at Google... Once they have no other choice, Google has its pick of the remaining fish, right?

I wish it didn't play games in recruitment. I had already accepted an internship at Facebook by the time Google called. In the end I'm glad I did, because I really enjoyed Facebook and am going back full time.




Strangely, I've had a different experience. I've heard promptly from Google, but nothing from Facebook. Perhaps they just aren't interested in me, however.
