In this video, you're gonna get some insights about working at Google and get in a job there about starting a company and much, much more.

Richard Lu, Richard, It's so exciting to be talking to you, and I'm sure my audience can learn a ton from you.

Richard has been worth an enviable for eight years and most recently was the head of engineering off project by Project Guys, Google's mobile phone plant.

I leap a Iot, revolutionizes recruiting and uses a eye for faster and better job search.

I'm going to ask Richard a serious of questions on his work at Google because he's been a Google for a long, long time and get some insights from him on how to get a job there.

I'm also going to talk to him about his recent company, Leap a why he decided to make a league who is a dream for a lot of people, and it's a dream job for a lot of people in my audience is well, what are the top three things that you wouldn't advice.

Software, engineering applicants that want to get a job at Google.

You need to get a familiar with data structure on algorithms.

Believe a lot we talk about, you know, complexity into your life at Google.

So, you know, they ask you to write code on the board.

So you needed to practice night in cold use on a piece of paper on a board because he is different from writing that I d off.

But without explaining their sort process, the real things that the interviewers New Year to care about.

You explain how you think on then that will help you quite a bit.

Last but not least, make sure you ask smart questions.

Okay, so a lot of people you know, a lot of people get in because they did not ask questions or their Christian were so naive.

You can get an answer from Google over under new cooker.

Why do you wish to the time with the interviewer?

Do your insightful Christian about the product that is the interviewer is working up.

If I know what you are working out, I ask you something we need to the space that you work up.

Then you would say, Oh, yeah, Richard does have some good insights.

I have a question with respect to programming languages, what would you say is the best program in language for someone who is applying for a job at Google to learn So Eun Google's most popular languages are Java super spas, and PETA on a gold nine is also pick up.

If you know, one of this were just stay with it.

I leading into re aware because you if you don't use anyone off this, you use another language.

Yeah, the interviews, they usually are not more accommodating.

Richard, you had a hugely successful career, Google.

You were there for eight years and were a hat of engineering for multiple products at Google, which is huge.

What was your proudest moment while you were there?

Problem this moment I would have to go to a T j f.

Got a chance to present it to the entire company about your product.

When we launch the project Fi, we are team for all of us.

Get chance to present the product to you The entire company.

You know what for Google products are a lot of times you eat much easier to get approval from outside.

That being said Gooners Gooners a very particular critic, good art critic, about products.

So when we presented the entire thing, people were so positive about whether we have done were so supportive about it about it.

So that's what for the team said, 2nd 1 individual side by law, you guys probably know I have a heavy accent user.

I was very scaled back about this type of public speaking because that's not something good for me on then.

In that case, I actually, you know, I was challenged by my VP before that to say, Richard, you just got to step up.

You know, don't overwater about your accent.

So you guys on the video, if used things, something you're not very good don't overly exaggerated.

Actually, only this big only you came walking into the other people.

I think that wasn't really a problem, not only for the team, but also for myself.

So you decided to leave Google and start your own company?

It's generally would be very, very hard to need Google, but he might.

Here's actually it was not that hard and also made my point to myself before I retire.

I want to do in a start up so that I can try.

What's a life off without a big company as a backing?

So it's just met up time on after project.

If I success, I saw that it's the right time.

So, second, why is that that domain I'm new you're passionate about is beautiful career?

Giving a platform to help all the people in the world to beat their best with their career on that is different is something Google is very good helping individual in the company's career development.

But I want to see kind of get a pratfall for everyone, for everyone in the world.

And that's not something Google would be interested.

So that's why very natural for me to start a new company.

So, Richard, how did you come up with the idea for a leap?
