I had a pretty good experience with full on-site interview, most of the interviewers were pretty conversational except one. I thought I was doing good but turns out I produced suboptimal solutions. I think they are looking for leetcode (hard) solutions

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Oct 2018

Four interviews onsite in Mountain View, CA after initial emailing with a recruiter. Each interview had a slightly different focus, one on front end, one on general problem solving, one more whiteboard heavy coding interview and a systems interview.

Question 1
I was asked to design a slider component for my front end interview, to design a tic-tac-toe game in another interview. A third interview was an medium difficulty algorithm problem that required knowledge of pointers to get the optimal solution. I don't remember the systems interview, honestly.
