I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Atlanta, GA) in Sep 2022
Interview
Did a take home assessment. I had done one the previous year so I was skipped that round this year. Then phone screen; first interviewer was nice & friendly. Second interviewer was late and a little too quiet though I made sure to talk.
