I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Google (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2024
Interview
The interview process consisted of a phone screen call with a recruiter, then they pass you off to take an assessment called GCA. If you pass the assessment you go to the next round which is back to back calls with team members and last round is with a hiring manager,
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself and how it relates to the role.
The process is really complicated, questions are really detailed. Need to prepare. Wishing you all huge success! I had 3 rounds and a prep call. Recruiters are really easy going and responsive.
Disorganized recruiting with random meeting invites with no explanations. Interviewer wasn’t welcoming at all and seemed to not care at all about the interview. The feedback call after the interview sounded like recruiter was reading an AI generating summary of the interview, which felt not personal at all. Overall awful experience.
