Software Engineer Interview Experience - Singapore
Process
After resume shortlisting, there were two 45-minute online interviews, with a 15-minute break in between.
Both interviews involved solving a problem on a shared Google Doc, followed by a general discussion about the profile and work.
Questions
The first interview question was a matrix dynamic programming question involving following a path on the Cartesian plane.
The second interview question was a data structure problem.
Both interviews were followed by the interviewers asking if I had any queries regarding the work or a generic query about Google, a question asked almost during every recruitment process.
