Software Developer Interview Experience - United Kingdom

Process

I interviewed for this role shortly before graduating.

They give you an intimidating lineup of interviews:

  • A 'personal' phone interview where you discuss your aims, why you want to work for Google, etc.
  • A technical phone interview
  • A whole day where you end up being interviewed by multiple people.

I only got to the technical phone stage. I was kind of on the edge and ended up having two phone interviews which were completely different.

The first person I spoke to seemed like they really knew what was going on. The second technical interview, the person seemed to not even really know who they were speaking to or why.

It was a very strange experience.
