I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Google in Sept 2020
Interview
Recruiters reached out to me in the job fair and I had the technical interview (about 1 Hr) and virtual online interview (contains 5 45-min interviews) in September. It's my first time interviewing with tech companies for a full-time position. Most of the interview questions are reasonable. However, I didn't quite understand the questions asked by the last interviewer and I knew I wouldn't pass then.
It was all good, the interviewer was very nice. Technical questions were a bit challenging but overall it was good. The hiring manager was looking for some hands on experience
