Process
I was contacted by a recruiter via email and completed two phone screens before moving on to on-site interviews.
The on-site interviews consisted of four one-on-one sessions with engineers at Google. The interviewers were very good and made the interviews feel like discussions.
A week later, I received a rejection, despite feeling pretty good about the interviews. I have no idea how many candidates were competing for the X available spots. I was disappointed.
This entire process spanned about two months.
