I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2020
Interview
Interview via google call using google doc as a white board. The interview questions are not difficult. I think they really test how you communicate and how you present the idea in a clear and simple way.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the standard error of the mean? Does education level effect salary? Question about interaction effect. Plot histogram chart and generate a normal distribution.
