Definitely not true. It seems to me that, if anything, Google has been prioritizing experienced industry hires recently, many of whom are in that age range.
That's interesting. Does "recently" mean it was not always so? My untested and rumour-based thoughts had been that they skewed towards younger (no family/ties/more energy/less negotiation skills) employees, and you were dead after 30.

There are tons of 35 year olds at FAANG and they do hire a lot of people who are currently 35 too.
Correct. The hard threshold is 40.
