      Software Engineer IV Interview

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google

      Interview

      The interview process was much longer than other companies - two months from initial interview to acceptance. I had one phone screen and 5 on-campus interviews which each lasted an hour. The on-campus interviews were the hardest of any company I've ever interviewed with (including many small companies, Microsoft, and Facebook).
