I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Google in Jan 2010
Interview
They send you a link to online Google docs- and ask you to code , so that they can look at what you are doing. I had mentioned the interviewer that I am not comfortable with low level programming and he went with semaphores and spin locks- which was a little irksome as I told him not to.
Maybe he was trying to figure out my thinking process in an unknown terrain.
Initial intro call, prep time , prep material provisions,
1 Phone Screening by HR, 3 DSA, 1 HLD and 1 Googliness, Team matching and offer negotiation and offer discussion , offer acceptance
After clearing all the interviews in 2 months, here comes the team match. Where no one ever knows when they gonna get a team match call. Even if you get the TM call next comes the HC again no one knows why they reject.
