I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in Feb 2023
Interview
1. Application and Resume Screening: The process usually begins with submitting an application and resume. Google’s hiring teams review these documents to shortlist candidates who meet the initial requirements. 2. Phone/Initial Screening: Candidates who pass the initial screening may receive a phone call or video interview to assess their qualifications, experience, and general fit for the role. 3. Technical Interviews: This stage typically involves a series of technical interviews, conducted either in person or through video calls. These interviews assess a candidate’s knowledge, problem-solving abilities, coding skills, algorithms, data structures, and more. The number of technical interviews can vary. 4. Behavioral and Culture Fit Interviews: In addition to technical assessments, Google often includes interviews to evaluate a candidate’s behavioral and cultural fit within the company. These interviews may focus on teamwork, leadership, communication, and problem-solving approaches.

I submitted my resume, waited weeks, then got to do a recruiter screen and a tough coding call. Finally, I got an onsite interview before being told I was rejected

Question 1
Given integers n, d and three arrays a[], b[], c[] of size n each, print count of all distinct triplets {i,j,k} such that all three conditions satisfy -
abs(a[i]-b[j])<=d,
abs(b[j]-c[k])<=d &
abs(c[k]-a[i])<=d.
n<=100000
(You can assume the arrays are sorted)
Follow up: print all triplets
First round interview, covering mainly brain teasers and experience. Very analytical question list and live problem soling and gaming scenarios. Enjoyable but challenging process, very intelligent interviewers. Following round was a super day
It was very uncertain, overall the area of coverage and expectation was just too much. Must know very deep into the space. I would recommend to study beyond the technicals and more about the space of which the team operated in.
