I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Google (Banga) in Jan 2022
Interview
I first received an email from a Google talent acquisition specialist back in July. Let’s call him X. We scheduled a phone conversation over the next few days. It was an initial recruiter screening call. We began with an introduction of ourselves, then I was asked some basic theoretical questions which included time complexity of various sorting algorithms, the time complexity of binary heap operations, etc.

I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Nov 2022
Interview
Suuuuuper long and stretched out, but that was to be expected from what I’d heard online. Was super excited to get an initial response, then had to spend a few days coordinating over email with the recruiter by filling out forms with info and giving lists of interview items that work for me. Finally got interview scheduled for a week out. Interview itself was straightforward, just a one on one screener over google meets using a shared code editor. (While this technically was Google Docs, it was a special section specific for giving phone code interviews that has syntax highlighting and stuff like a normal code editor) After that didn’t hear a response for two more weeks, until my recruiter told that I had passed the screener and done well, but Google had decided they didn’t want to hire for the role anymore.

Question 1
Even though it was a front-end role, it was a general language agnostic coding question similar to leetcode. The question was regarding changes in strings and using data structures to find the longest chain of changes.
The interview process was really smooth. They took the coding assignment before the interview. In the interview the project implementation was discussed and why one particular approach is choosen. The interview went on for 45 mins.
