Google

I was referred by a friend and first approached by a recruiter from Google. They asked for some basic information, and then I had a phone screen. The interview problem was hard for a phone screen, but I can't complain; Google sets the bar high.

This was a typical Google interview. It was a 45-minute phone call with a senior engineer from Google. It included some background questions and a coding question about arrays. You also need to provide the time and space complexity of your algorithm.

Quick background discussion, and talking with the interviewer, he was quite friendly. However, it was a tough interview; I didn't have enough background knowledge. That said, I enjoyed it. The only thing I would do differently is prepare longer next
