Applied through SO. Started with a quick phone interview with the recruiter. Next was the screening round and is just supposed to be a "phone interview" with the engineering manager and never mentioned to have a laptop. However, it ended up being a programming round. Interview lasted about an hour instead of the originally planned 30 mins. Some quirks I learnt is that the android team "copies" the logic from iOS who starts off new features product development first. This was already mentioned by another candidate in glassdoor interview and deemed to be accurate. The hiring team should stick to the timings. If you can't screen a candidate in 30 mins, you wouldn't do it in an hour either.

Applied thru linkedin and got a call from recruiter to discuss. Usual conversation, but the recruiter started with 'What do you know about us and why do you want to work for us?'. Set up a technical screen with the Director. Interviewer called and informed that he hadn't seen my resume or was in front of a computer. Asked to briefly explain about myself. He seemed impatient to get to ask questions, and soon started with it. All the questions were fair, but the conversation seemed stressed and not welcoming to have a conversation. Immediately upon the first question, when I repeated it aloud to make sure I understood it correctly, he commented saying 'you can just tell me if this is not your strong-suite and we can move on'. While I didn't answer many (or most) of his questions in a manner he'd find acceptable, I increasingly felt it was a lost cause. He kept on saying, what next, what other things have you worked on and asked generic questions related to the technology. Finally he gave a pitch for using their product and hung up. Never heard back since (nor was I expecting to)
