I had a good experience with them as a new grad. A couple hours with TripleByte got me a free plane ticket to Silicon Valley, a hotel room, free Uber rides around the bay, and 5 on site interviews back-to-back. The product was an amazing deal for candidates. I had to do very little work and it got my foot in the door. 4 years later and I now work for Google in Mountain View.

TripleByte isn’t what they used to be, though. I don’t think they do anything close to what I experienced anymore.

What you described is just how Google (and others, in the before times) conducted onsite interviews. TripleByte got you a recruiter’s attention, maybe; but the rest was standard fare.

No that sounds like something Triplebyte might have set up. I got something similar but no plane tickets and Uber since I was already in the bay area. But I got the stack of interviews and several free meals / coffee courtesy of Triplebyte. Plus I still have the jacket and coffee mug. I know the current Triplebyte experience isn't anything like the early one, but this thread does start to sound like a false alarm.

I didn’t get a job at Google through TripleByte. I spent 2.5 years at point.com, and a year at copy.ai before heading to big G.
