I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Google
Interview
Months before interviews and thought I was ghosted in-between until they eventually rejected me. For a company as large as Google with the amount or resources they have, I would've expected a smoother interview process but apparently not.
I received a coding round. It was having 2 simple problems to code and solve. After that, they asked me to take a survey about my technical skills. Did not hear back from the recruiter till a month. And got rejected.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2019
Interview
I received a coding challenge and after completing it and waiting for a response, I got scheduled for the technical phone interview. For my phone interview I had two of them back to back. They were both with Google Software Engineers and they both asked me one technical question with a couple of follow-up questions and edits I had to make to my answer.
