Good, and professional interviewer. Very technical and challenging, ensure you are well prepared before hand. Covered a lot of technical areas of the whole security stack. And coding challenge at the end of the session.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2021
Interview
Met with recruiter and had great google meet call. Had tech-screen call with engineers and first meeting went well but never heard anything back afterwards. No positive or negative feedback. Questions were moderate to difficult in nature so you had best know your stuff. General scripting sudo code examples also required.
