Sample size - 52. These are from candidates who have made it to Hiring Committee (HC), either before or after Team Match (TM), and have received an HC decision.
% received an HC approval - 73%. This number is much higher than I expected, so I suspect that there could be some selection bias here - folks who got rejected may be taking a break from Blind or less likely to report a result. Also, it is possible that Google relaxed its HC bar, but I find this unlikely.

% went to TM before HC - 37%. We've been hearing a recent change that more candidates are sent for TM before HC, and we see this in the data. Based on what I've read on Blind, this is usually because the on-site feedback was mixed, a new process is kicked in (we do see candidates with primarily SH/H were also sent to TM first), or it is for a higher-level role (L6+).

Offer %, HC-first vs.TM-first - 73% vs. 74%. In terms of the likelihood of getting an offer, I don't see a big difference between those who went to HC first vs. TM first.
% offers were downleveled - 37%. When breaking down this number by HC-first vs. TM-first, we see a pretty big difference - 29% (HC-first) vs. 50% (TM-first). This could be due to the TM-first group tends to have mixed on-site feedback, hence a higher chance of being downleveled.
Another interesting finding is that for those who needed to redo one or more rounds, only 1 in 11 received a reject (from the TM-first group). So if you are asked to redo, you are very likely to get an offer. This makes me question how effective is the redo mechanism, as it almost always leads to a hire decision. Or maybe it is just because my sample size is too small.

Previously, we see that the HC-first group has a slightly lower redo rate compared to the TM-first group. However, when we have a larger sample size, the 2 numbers converged to 21%. Redo requests can come from HC or the recruiter before HC review, and that is not differentiated in this poll.. Waral dи,
Regarding the 73% approval rate from HC, at first, I thought it was higher than I expected. However, in the latest communication with my recruiter, she mentioned that most of the results from HC are approvals. With this anecdotal information, I think the 73% HC approval rate from our data is not too unreasonable. And remember, this excludes all the candidates who were rejected right after onsite with no HC review.
Lastly, seems like HC and TM are not necessarily sequential, as I have an impression from my recruiter that an HC review is scheduled for my packet, and at the same time it is already being circulated for the team match. This is contrary to our common understanding that TM won't start until a positive decision is made from HC, or vice versa.
