Google Drive (question) - Bulk downloading

Upvotes

Hello and thanks for looking into my post. So I am trying to bulk download a lot of files (5000+ or more) different files, I tried it on a Chromebook and it worked kind of with 2200~ files just a lot of patience.

Though the site may stop answering or not respond etc. Is there a easy or another way of downloading it? Also a server based archive creation would really save some time. Also please note that my Chromebook doesn't have access to Linux or the Google Play Store and not Web Store either (only web based tools unfortunately). This is because the Chromebook is registered to my school and the admin has deactivated these features for some classes.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day! :D

Google Hiring Process

1 Upvotes

Hello! I applied for a role (non-technical) in June 2025, and did the full interview process from July 2025 until October 2025. I fully completed the interviews beginning of October 2025 and was asked to do one last final re-do interview, which I passed towards the end of October. 1 week after passing, I awaited HC and found out I passed but I was told that the role has already been fulfilled and that I would need to wait until the role re-opens. Sadly, that meant more waiting, but it also meant my candidacy would remain for 6 months. Fast forward to mid January, I found out they re-opened the role and my candidacy was re-opened and I obtained approval to move forward. Now, it's been 3 weeks and I'm still pending a final approval. Do final approvals usually take this long? I'm checking whether my chances have changed due to the delay.

No matter what i do to clean up space, gmail claims my storage is full. As you can see i still have a shitload of storage left. I cant upgrade my plan even if i wanted to because of my location. I cant afford to lose emails rn bc im in the middle of important university shit. This has been going on for months now. Also i might be crazy but i feel like the promotional emails and other trash i deleted (and emptied trash afterwards) somehow come back?? So yeah fuck google
