Process

I applied online.

Five interviews. The process was pretty straightforward. I received a screening call, a first interview to measure abilities, and then 3 rounds including the googleness one. The timeline was very typical too, around 4 months to receive the final call. It was heavily recommended by the recruiter to prepare using the guides given by Google.

Questions

Typical LC problems that are not that hard.
