I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Merath)
Interview
The interview is good with the excellent Googler, which helps you to reach the result. Most of the interviews are Situational questions like which is your least favorite google product, what changes you should make in that product
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about your self.
What is your least favorite google product
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.
