I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Bengaluru) in Jan 2017
Interview
It was Difficult and there were 4 rounds. Difficulty increased with every round. 5 Case studies were asked and given 30 mins for each in different rounds by different interviewer. More focus on Strategy problems and Estimation questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me situation where you were Internal company issues affected your job role and what did you do to resolve it?
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.
You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.
Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
