I was contacted by a Google recruiter based on an internal referral from an ex-colleague. Since I already lived in the Bay Area and (apparently) my referrer did a great job talking me up, I was allowed to skip the phone screen stage and proceed direc

In the initial phone screen, the interviewer asked very rare questions. Please strengthen your string/array part of coding skills, as I prepared a lot on hotter data structures but neglected this part.

Technical phone interview. There are 1-2 rounds before the onsite interview. You need to wait a week to get feedback and maybe a month to reserve an interview. The question pool is very large.
