The interview process was very weird. There were eight 45-minute 1:1 interviews. The interviewers spent half the time taking notes rather than talking to the candidate. One of the interviewers from the Google Home team was European and had English that was really hard to understand. He was asking loaded/behavioral questions, unlike an American engineering manager who was asking interesting textbook/practical problems.

Regular EE design problems. Some behavioral questions.
