"Having worked with Googlebots in the past, I'm familiar with how they work and why Google uses them to crawl websites. Googlebots do their job to alert webmasters and security professionals about malicious threats or attempts to hack a site. They also help determine whether a site has legitimate content to help it rank as well. I've seen websites get penalized because they aren't indexed properly and they have pages that don't follow Google's stipulated guidelines for cyber security protection measures in place. In my opinion, it really comes down to a websites domain authority and domain trust which tells the Googlebots that it is safe and protected."

"I work very closely with our marketing department and cyber colleagues to make sure that we have quality content that the Googlebots will index using Google Fetch. Performing this technique causes website pages to get visited and indexed by the Googlebot. When I do this, there are three things that immediately come to mind. One is to make sure I am meeting Googlebot guidelines, the second is to check if search engines crawl from one page to another through HTML links, and the third is to make sure that we have followed internal cyber security and privacy guidelines to protect from any attacks."

Good interviewers typically start with basic questions early in the interview to weed out the candidates that are not qualified, then work their way up to more complex questions. Googlebot questions will fall somewhere in the middle in terms of complexity. The way that this question might be posed is whether a Googlebot or a breach means the same thing, and if not, what is the difference between the two.
