Process

Google recruited from my college, so it wasn't too hard to get an interview.

There were two coding interviews (by phone and Google Docs) which covered basic data structures and algorithms. The interviewers were polite and very willing to talk about their work.

I messed up on some of the questions, but it was an overall good experience.

Questions

There was a problem about data structures that was rather difficult.
