Google Tried to Patent My Work After a Job Interview
I met/had a similar experience with Google ATAP in 2013 (was Motorala ATAP then; Google recently bought them) though not for a job interview but to discuss working together to build our tech SpeakerBlast into the Moto X.They asked if we ever thought about selling our technology to them before the meeting and at the meeting they baited us for how our tech worked saying we'd like to work with you tell us how it works.  Once we did they left the room (Dugan's 2nd right hand man at the time and another) & 3 minutes later showed us the door saying the "race is on."They have since been awarded patents for audio syncing across phones.Many here will say that's just how Silicon Valley works.... takes advantage and stomps on the little guy innovators & their dreams.  That's not professional and I met with many other companies like Samsung who acted with the utmost respect & professionalism towards us.  Yet, Google whose motto is "Don't Be Evil," can't act in the same fashion?
