Are you saying that only 2-3% of interns at Google end up with a Google offer?

I only have experience with Apple. I wouldn't be surprised if the number was similar for Google, given that internships are seen as a low-cost, low-risk trawling mechanism.

Are you counting return internship offers? Many interns aren't looking for full time job offers. Only 2-3% percent receiving offers seems rather low.
