I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Google (Kuala Lumpur) in Jan 2018
Interview
Horrible interview at google. Toilet used for trial cleaning was completely unsanitary with fecal matter all over the floor and walls of the cubicle. I am not sure what google employees eat for lunch at work, but it must be some killer stuff to have such a nasty bomb.
CV sent in. Phone interview, then in person interview. Waited about a week, then got a phone call, followed up with email confirming offer of employment. Started two weeks later.

Question 1
My previous experience, fromy previous employment.
A few weeks ago, I received a call from Google for an interview for the role of Janitor. Excited and a bit intimidated (I mean, it’s Google!), I prepared myself for what could be a very thorough and unique interview process.
Round 1: Phone Screening The recruiter asked some basic questions like:
“Why do you want to be a janitor at Google?”
“Can you tell me about a time when you had to solve a problem under pressure?”
I gave an example of how I once unclogged a sink during a high-stakes office party without anyone noticing. They seemed impressed.

Question 1
"How would you handle a coffee spill in a high-traffic area during a big product launch event?"
I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Google (Los Angeles, CA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Great, open, honest process. Transparent and clear. Timeline about what to expect was good, benefits and upward mobility even for a janitor was nice. Looking forward to seeing what happens with everything else.
