I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Google in Oct 2008
Interview
First, the recruiter contacted me. Then there were two phone interviews. After that I had two on-site interviews. In each on-site interview, 4 persons interviewed one by one.
Though it was Product Manager's position, the interviewer consists of both engineer and managers. The engineers asked pure programming questions.
Product managers asked various generic design questions as well as Google's product related questions.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
How do you code integer division without using divider ('/')
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.
resume screening, a recruiter call, and technical or role-specific interviews. Candidates complete coding, system design, or behavioral rounds. Onsite or virtual panels assess problem-solving, communication, and leadership. Feedback goes to a hiring committee, followed by team matching and final offer discussions.
