Interview
I applied for the job through Google careers website and received an email to set up an initial phone interview about 2 days later. The initial phone interview was pretty basic, it was mostly to learn more about the position and for me to tell the recruiter about my experiences and how I thought they aligned with the position.

Question 1
Why do you want to work with Google's People Operations department?
Two interviews back to back 45 minutes each. The first one was technical, not hard technical but just basic knowledge on SQL the second interview was very conversational Google questions. I feel like a lot of the interview has to do with having a good vibe with the other person.

Question 1
How would you handle a conflict between two coworkers…
What if those two coworkers both had extremely strong points?…
What would you do if the other coworker felt like you were favoring the other one not the idea?…
Typical process, starting off with a recruiter screen. It took a while to hear back whether or not I made it to next steps. Communication could be improved as to not let the candidate waiting for too long.
