Palpable Score

84.2
/ 100
Google offers multiple well-known entry paths for students and graduates, and Google publishes unusually detailed hiring and interviewer-calibration practices that are designed to reduce bias. The main constraint on the score is early-career stability: public reporting about restructures, buyouts, and stricter location rules makes outcomes less predictable than the brand reputation alone would suggest.
