Process

Two interviews were conducted back-to-back, each lasting 45 minutes with a 10-minute break in between.

These were held over the phone, using a shared Google Doc.

Each interview was conducted by a different Google employee, both of whom were software engineers, I believe.

Questions were asked at the end.

I solved one or two problems in both interviews.

The most important thing is to keep talking on the phone and to describe your process.

It's okay to say, "Let me just think out loud here." They want to know how you think.

Questions

It had to do with arrays.
