applied through recruiter outreach early in June as I applied the previous year. took OA, scored perfect and went through 3 round of technical interviews, mainly focused on data structures and hashing. each interview was 45 minutes long.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
asked me to parse text and enter data into a storage system
Recruiter call, followed by technical screening, and then engineering interview. Overall, very standard process and followed closely to what I expected. The main issue I had was with the recruiter not communicating, causing me to almost miss the interview.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google
Interview
Took an extremely long time only to be rushed to do the two interviews back to back. The interviewers were very nice though and really tried to help as much as they could
