Team matching was a mess this year - process started late and it took about a month for them to make a decision after an interview which made the process take even longer time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Which area in software engineering are you interested in?
I applied via the Google career website. I then completed an online assessment with a few DS&A problems. I then completed two back to back interviews with one DS&A problem each.

Question 1
It was a Data Structures and Algorithm style question.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 9 months. I interviewed at Google (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2023
Interview
Interviewers were very friendly and personable! I was able to answer my second interview question with minimal difficulty (Leetcode Medium/Hard), but for the first interview question I struggled with the medium follow-up to the easy question, but I made sure to communicate my thoughts throughout and I still got in! Prioritize communication, then a complete but unoptimized solution before trying to go for a perfectly optimized solution right off the bat.

Question 1
I don't believe I can give away any specific question due to the NDA, but I got two Leetcode questions at around a Medium Difficulty (tries, then graphs & BFS)
