Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Referred through the Google Summer of Code program.

A recruiter then took my application and set up interviews for me.

They also gave a lot of useful interview tips (links and videos).

A good book to study with is "Cracking the Coding Interview."

Two Google Hangout technical interviews.

Second interviewer explained the problem badly, so be sure to ask questions if you don't understand.

Questions

Single linked lists, sorting algorithms, and complexities.
