I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google in Apr 2019
Interview
Pretty long and comprehensive. Lots of indepth questions trying to dig out my product skills. Their creative questions really stretched my imagination. Technical interview was less hard than expected, very surface level questions. Very smart people.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
You've captured a flying fish. What are you going to do with it?
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.
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.
