A classic entry with 30 other candidates, and we had to stand out. We each had a blank sheet of paper and had to find the riddle. Some tore up the sheet, others wrote their CV on it.

The interview process spanned the course of a few weeks. I was given the opportunity to prepare for the interview. There was a phone screening and a programming or algorithm interview. This was for the Google self-driving car project.

I was called because they found my resume in a conference database. After a 10-minute talk, they set up an interview right away. The interviewer and recruiter were very nice and polite. Check out Programming Interviews Exposed (book) to help review.
