The interviewer asked me questions on data intuition, statistics and coding skills, though I feel the data intuition part is really just statistics. It seems I finished answering the questions the interviewer had planned sooner than he expected, so he asked me another question, on which I got stuck.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
SE of sample mean & SE of sample median
Write a function to return elements from the Fibonnaci sequence & analyze its computational complexity.
It was all good, the interviewer was very nice. Technical questions were a bit challenging but overall it was good. The hiring manager was looking for some hands on experience
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Apr 2026
Interview
Got email from the HR and scheduled 2 virtual onsite interviews. It went well. I went through another 3 rounds of VO. My packet was submitted to the committee. They do not like it and gave me another round of VO. In the 6th round VO, my application got rejected. It was a total waste of time for everyone.
Back to back interview.
[1]. Mainly ask ML concepts, e.g., how to develop a classifer for youtube video; they will also ask some statistical concepts
[2] Coding for both python and sql
