I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Waterloo, ON) in Dec 2019
Interview
After applying online an initial coding assessment is sent to you. This consisted of two very easy coding questions to be completed online. After a few weeks they will contact you to schedule two back to back technical interviews with two separate engineers. After my two interviews I was contacted for a third interview of the same type.
