I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Google (Bengaluru) in Jul 2024
Interview
Had 3 rounds of coding + HR interviews after clearing the OA. 1st round was purely DSA and remaining 2 were DSA + HR. Asked medium level questions and the interviewers were really friendly and helpful. They helped me throughout the interview with questions gave helpful remarks during the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was an idea which you thought would work at first but didn't work.
It was interesting to see the way that the team was able to make the candidates more comfortable. The process was fast and interesting in order to make the candidate feel more relaxed
It was online and fairly standart. You will be sent a Google Meet link after scheduling with your interviewer. You will be asked one or two coding questions for STEP and SWE Intern positions. If you pass the technical rounds, you will be advanced to the team matching phase. As a tip, team matching is unfortunately not a guarantee and you should definitely continue looking for other opportunities as long as you don't have an offer in your hand.
