I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google
Interview
There are two rounds of phone screen technical interviews. Before the interview, the recruiter will send the Google Docs shared link(s) for the interview.
During the interview, interviewers will describe the problem for you to solve. After discussing back and forth, start to write down your solution. When you are done with your answer, make sure that you consider all the corner cases. Then, the interviewer will ask you to analysis the complexity of your algorithm and also how to test your program if needed.
there is no online assessment, very simple phone call, then two technicals. technicals are not difficult by any means. then you get put into team matching, after a couple months
