I applied online. I interviewed at Google in Jan 2025
Interview
It was actually really quick. I met with the hiring manager and did the virtual on-site. The conversations went really well, it was much more high level than I expected and they just wanted to see that I understood technical concepts without too much granularity.
I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Google (Taipeh) in Mar 2024
Interview
I interviewed in 2024. I applied through referral. Got the response from the recruiter within a week. He was very friendly and helpful. The following interviews were stretched over 2 months. I was told that I got positive results, but the position was moved, so I didn't get an offer. However, the recruiter helped me to start the interview process with another role, thus another recruiter. Again, I cleared the circle, but while we were negotiating the details, e.g., visa & salary, I was told that it is close to the financial year and they need to wait for the budget. In the end, the role was cancelled, so I didn't get any offer despite that I had all positive results.
All the interviewers are very nice and friendly; however, the process dragged on too long, and the budget thing / the cancellation of positions added a lot of frustration.

Interview
The process involves an HR screening round, a hiring Manager round, followed by a loop round over GCA, Googlyness, Role-Related Knowledge in Program Management, and TPM. The interview was good. We have to share in-depth details using the STAR framework.
