Google’s Evil NDA

Hardcore might be the better word.

Tomorrow I am going to interview over at Google. Before I do so, I need to sign an NDA which states, among other things, that I’m not allowed to tell anyone I’m interviewing over there, or indeed, to mention the name of Google at all. So I’m going to do all that now and get it out of my system, so I’m not tempted to violate the agreement after I’ve signed it.

No mentioning Google, no mentioning that you had an interview with Google and certainly no mention of what came within your sights at Google. Overboard? Perhaps. Personally, signing all this would just turn me off of wanting a job there.
