I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Google (Pryor, OK) in Nov 2015
Interview
I arrived 20 minutes early and waited for 2 people to interview me . I was contracting through a third party and was asked if I would interview for an Operations Engineer/Technician roles at the Google Pryor Oklahoma Data center. So I waited in an empty office.
an hour later 6 people show up lugging boxes in and just dropping them in the corner. then they all interviewed me and they were polite but very hasty. no warm up questions they went straight to your basic Cisco IOS command questions . I felt like they were just going through the motions and had no intentions of even considering me for the position. I should of just left before they even got there to interview me. I could of spent that hour searching for better opportunities.
