I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Redwood City, CA) in Apr 2024
Interview
The interviewers were clearly reading questions and did not try to get to know me as an applicant. Very robotic and not a conversation at all and felt like I could've just memorized the questions from resources online
the process is very fast. i got 4 rounds of interview within 2 weeks, and got the feedback right after each round of interviews. sometimes its depends on the chemistry between you and the interviewer.
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.
