Engineering Practicum Interview Experience - Nashville, Tennessee
Process
I applied to Google using the online application portal. I spent more time on the essay than I should have. It is mandatory, and you should put some thought into it, but don't treat it as a college application essay.
After that, Google engineers came to my campus for interviews. I had two 45-minute interviews back to back.
I heard back from them after a week, stating my interview was sent for review by the community, and I received the offer after two more weeks.
Questions
The questions weren't particularly hard. They were just basic questions on linked list traversal and cycle detection.
