I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google in Sept 2020
Interview
Initial contact with recruiter. Referred by a friend and get back from HR in 5 days. We have a 30 mins chat with regular questions for experience, projects and background. Looks they take communication as the first priority.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Go through my background
Describe cross-functional work;
Describe a project involving PA;
It was all good, the interviewer was very nice. Technical questions were a bit challenging but overall it was good. The hiring manager was looking for some hands on experience
Back to back interview.
[1]. Mainly ask ML concepts, e.g., how to develop a classifer for youtube video; they will also ask some statistical concepts
[2] Coding for both python and sql
Applied at PhD level so I had two back to back technical interviews. One all stats concepts and the other talking over a hypothetical experiment design and walking through my thought process.
