I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA)
Interview
There are two interviews: a telephone interview and an in-person interview. The in-person interview is straight forward, and involves a problem-solving question related to eDiscovery. This is not the traditional, obnoxious Google interview process.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Aug 2012
Interview
Straightforward process, with a phone screening with an HR person followed by a group interview with a few members of the legal team. Everyone was cordial and the questions were typical of a process for a legal-oriented role. Great communication throughout the process from all parties, and the time from screening to offer was very quick for such a large company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was a mock situation prompt with ample time to read and consider the prompt, and then walkthrough your thinking and analysis of the problem.
