I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google
Interview
I was contacted by HR, who gave me details about the interview process and also advised me on what product management means at Google. Round 1 was on the phone and the interviewer called me little late as he was having a busy day. Asked me few questions about my background and anything new that I would like to do at Google. The interviewer was in hurry and the interview was around 30 minutes. Post interview experience was really bad.I had to ask HR several times; As per the HR, she was not able to get the feedback from the interviewer. After 3 follow up mails and a month got rejected.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you have to start a business which business you will choose
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.
You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.
Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
