I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in Apr 2025
Interview
3 rounds, 45 min each. Conversations are a bit less conversational because they are looking away taking the note most of the time. Most of the questions were about how you work but there were a couple that included what would you do if your team is having issues.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of a time you had to defend your idea/opinion or an idea you did not support.
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.
