Process

I passed the resume screen and secured two on-campus interviews. After passing those, I was invited for a half-day on-site interview, which included lunch.

The interview process was well-oiled:

  • HR was quick to answer emails.
  • The process was well explained.

However, I felt Google was not really trying to impress us or make us want to work there. It seemed they only relied on their reputation, which I found a bit disappointing.

The interview difficulty was average for a big tech company.
