I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Mar 2014
Interview
I had a phone interview with the hiring manager. Then I got invitation to onsite interviewed. I talked to a junior product manager and a senior product managers. I thought the conversation went well. Then I was interviewed by an engineer. He asked me about a sorting question, which I didn't know how to answer at all. The last time I did any algorithm was 10 years ago.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. how to design an elevator
2. how to design an app store
You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.
Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
resume screening, a recruiter call, and technical or role-specific interviews. Candidates complete coding, system design, or behavioral rounds. Onsite or virtual panels assess problem-solving, communication, and leadership. Feedback goes to a hiring committee, followed by team matching and final offer discussions.
