I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Aug 2016
Interview
I was flown out onsite to Mountain View. No phone screen. My resume was a perfect match for the job and they didnt want to lose me as i was looking for jobs.
It was a full day of interviews - 5 rounds + lunch.
Great experience
I was like a kid in a toy store

Question 1
Describe a technical topic to me like I am C-executive
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Amsterdam) in May 2026
Interview
had first interview with recruiter - she was nice. thought that I was the right person for the job. Second interview with manager from the US. was less good. felt like the main reason for the interview was to hire a similar person to the person who was interviewing. we talked at night (for me) and was 30 min over the interview allocated time, but the morning after I got a rejection call.
I did 3 rounds of interview as part of the loop. 4th interview got postponed and eventually they decide not proceed with my application. The interviewers were from West Virginia and London. They were great and I enjoyed the interviews. Just disappointed that I couldn’t land the role.
