Process
I applied online and three weeks later received an e-mail from the recruiter. They said I was going to have two on-site interviews at the Fremont Google office in Seattle.
Each interview takes 45 minutes. The questions were straightforward, involving array searching, binary tree searching, and recursion/dynamic programming. However, I got stuck on one question and took a while to finish it.
One week later, I received the rejection letter.
