Great benefits, like free food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and access to multiple gyms.
Diversity is a huge thing at Google and is taken seriously.
Google has great cultures and values.
Great work-life balance, definitely the best compared to other big tech companies.
Google helps its employees a lot in learning and pushing your skills to the next level.
Contractors do sometimes have an opportunity to get converted to full-time employees, depending on the department and project they are working on.
Contractors do get treated differently, like second-class citizens. A lot of research projects, especially at Google X, have a high chance of suddenly getting shut down without prior notice. Everyone on the project (full-time and contractors) gets laid off without any help or chance to move to a different role/project inside Google.
First, an online assessment, then the HR call, then several rounds of technical interview (you need to solve data structure/algorithm problems), and finally a manager interview (mostly behavioral questions).
I had two online interviews with their software engineer. They first asked me about my research at school, and then we started the coding question part. The difficulty of the problems is around medium to hard on LeetCode.
I was invited to have an interview with two engineers for the Google Watch team. I had two rounds in one day, 30 minutes apart. Each round took 60 minutes to complete. They didn't tell me the result for two months, and no feedback was provided.
