I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Oct 2015
Interview
For specifically the on site interview, 2 interviews in the morning, lunch with my second interviewer, 2 more interviews. Each one lasted approximately 45 minutes to an hour, and the interviewers were of very diverse ages and backgrounds, all interesting to interview with though. Lunch included tour of the campus.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Various types of questions covering object oriented programming, dynamic programming and basic functional programming.
1 coding assessment. If you pass, you get to the final round which consists of 4 rounds in one day. 3 technical and one behavioral. The algorithms I had was BFS, Min heaps, and backtracking(parentheses)
Got an OA first.
And an interview call.
Question was backtracking leetcode.
i would say a medium-hard question . I was able to solve it but still got rejected. I was hoping for second on site round. idk why .
But i think my interviewer is not in interested in my code like she is not even correcting me.
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Seattle, WA)
Interview
I applied online with no referral. First was an online coding challenge then 4 virtual onsite 45 minute interviews. I had a call with my recruiter to learn about the details of the interview process. They were 3 technical interviews and 1 behavioral.
