Software Engineering Interview Experience - Washington, District of Columbia
Process
Mostly what everyone else says. If you get to the part where you are being matched with teams, be VERY intentional about asking potential teams detailed questions.
These are the people who will be reviewing your work. Ask them what metrics they use to assess new coders' work. Ask them what their team goals are for the next six months. Ask them how they onboard to their team.
I ended up on a team that had never had an intern before, and it was stressful not having a team that could mentor a younger college student.

Google Work Experiences
- 4.0Still a good company, but may not be the best anymoreSoftware Engineering • Former EmployeeMountain View, California, United StatesSeptember 12, 2008Pros: Cutting-edge technology, a famous brand, and good food. The good weather here in Mountain View, CA is also a good reason. If you are tired of the free food here, go get some decent dinners on Castro Street nearby. You can also learn a lot from tech talks, open days, the MoMA, and the code tree itself. Google's codebase may not be the biggest, but its quality is the best in the world.Cons: It is a good place for college graduates, but it may not be good for ambitious people. The decision to quit is difficult because of the perks, the good food, and the admiration from people around you when they know you are a Googler. But there is a reason for so many talented people to leave this company...
