      Site Reliability Engineer Interview

      19 Apr 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mountain View, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Apr 2018

      Interview

      Phone screen, followed by (weeks later) onsite interview consisting of multiple consecutive face-to-face interviews. SREs can be evaluated on different tracks; for the software-engineer only track, you will be asked to solve computer science problems (which they ask to keep confidential). You should come prepared with questions of your own and to answer more tangential questions, including about anything on your resume.
