I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Dublin, Dublin) in Nov 2024
Interview
You have an initial call with a recruiter who will then give you a rundown of the interview process, and schedule for you to join a call anonymously that gives you a full rundown of the process. There are 3 interviews, each one focusing on a different aspect: Leadership, Role-Related Knowledge, and GCA (general cognitive ability). You do Leadership and Role-Related Knowledge first and if you pass those you go to the final interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A project you've been working on gets passed on to a co-worker. How do you handle the hand-off?
the process is very fast. i got 4 rounds of interview within 2 weeks, and got the feedback right after each round of interviews. sometimes its depends on the chemistry between you and the interviewer.
The process is really complicated, questions are really detailed. Need to prepare. Wishing you all huge success! I had 3 rounds and a prep call. Recruiters are really easy going and responsive.
Disorganized recruiting with random meeting invites with no explanations. Interviewer wasn’t welcoming at all and seemed to not care at all about the interview. The feedback call after the interview sounded like recruiter was reading an AI generating summary of the interview, which felt not personal at all. Overall awful experience.
