Process

First, I have not actually heard back yet, but I had to fill out the offer field – it means nothing yet.

Overall, the interview process was smooth. I would say that I enjoyed both of my phone interviews.

I heard back about scheduling interviews only a couple of hours after I applied, which may be due to me emailing my school's Google recruiter and a former TA who has worked there the past couple of summers putting in a good word for me with the recruiter.

Google's interview process is overall pretty well-documented and organized, I think.

Questions

I signed an NDA and will therefore not share my interview questions. However, there are plenty of online resources, and I found their advice to be accurate. Not too difficult!
