I applied online. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in May 2018
Interview
Two whiteboard questions, not particularly difficult but the interviewers did not know how to phrase the question correctly. Took me about 15-20 min to understand what they were saying because they were so unclear. One of the interviewers was not a fluent English speaker (so it took a while to explain the question) and I could hear the second interviewer slurping and eating things on the other end of the call (which made my confidence waver because he seemed so disinterested). I was already sick that day and extremely nervous, so to be treated this way tipped me over and I cried afterwards.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If Susan and her 4 friends went on a trip and they each had 50 dollars, but different spending, how can they pay each other back? (See, it doesn't make sense).
Home exam, 2 questions in 90 mins
Then they did 2 interviews-45 mins each
It was on google meet
The interviews are in English, the first question was matrix dfs and the second one was hashmap with random function
There were multiple stages to the process, but the main one of which was technical interviews through digital meetings (Zoom) consisted of 2 meetings, in which you have to solve 1 leet-code style question, levels medium-hard.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google (Tel Aviv-Yafo)
Interview
My application process started in November with two LeetCode-style home assignments. In December, I sat for two technical interviews on Google Meet. Although they were meant to be back-to-back, one was rescheduled after the interviewer didn't show up. I successfully navigated a medium question with a follow-up and a hard DFS/graph problem.
Two weeks later, in January, I moved into the host-matching phase. After one team match interview in February, I wasn't selected, and by April, I received a final update that the process was closing because no further team matches were found.
