I applied online.

I applied for the role through Google's online careers portal on 12 July and received an interview call on 1 October. Following the recruiter screening, there were two technical interview rounds. Each round consisted of one medium-level DSA question along with several follow-up questions. The first round focused on a problem involving strings and hash maps, while the second round involved a dynamic programming problem that required an optimized solution. The interviewers also asked follow-up questions to assess my problem-solving approach, understanding of concepts, and ability to optimize solutions.
