Unfortunately, this worked as intended. These companies want people who are desperate to work there and will do anything to get in the door. Both parties were successful in this case in determining that there wasn't a good fit.

That's also true. I actually was glad that I didn't get the job, because at that stage of Google development they were definately underpaying people who wanted "To work for Google". At least in Europe. It appears that the USA is very different in this respect.
