I did a ton of searching about Android Engineer interviews but couldn’t find much information, so I figured sharing my experience might help someone else. The whole process took around two weeks.

After I applied online, a recruiter got in touch and set up a call with the hiring manager. It was a good chat—we went over my background and my experience with Android development, and the manager shared some details about the team.

Next up was my first technical coding interview, which lasted 60 minutes. It wasn't the typical LeetCode drill; instead, it was live coding in Android Studio. About an hour before the call, I received an Android project with some code pre-written and some features that needed to be finished.

During the interview, the interviewer asked me to do things like set up a ViewModel, use it to pull data from an existing repo, and send data back to the repo, among other tasks. The interviewer was really helpful throughout the process, but I felt like I didn’t nail it. In the end, the recruiter let me know they weren't moving forward with my application.

All in all, it was a pretty pleasant experience, and everyone I interacted with was really nice.
