There was 3round of interview .In easy round there was one DSA question and in last 10 minutes some HR question. DSA questions were of medium level but they also see your resume for furthers rounds.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe yourself. What challenges u have faced etc.
Hard LeetCode-style interviews (often seen at top tech companies) are, by design, exceptionally difficult, focusing on niche algorithms, complex data structures, or "have-you-seen-it-before" problems within a short, high-pressure timeframe. Many developers, even senior ones, struggle with these, often viewing them as flawed, high-pressure "theater" rather than a reflection of day-to-day engineering skill.
I had 3 interview rounds and all of them were leetcode medium-hard style including behavioral questions. Overall process was slow and took around 2 months. Interviewers were nice and helpful.
The interview process was quite a lengthy and challenging experience, with several rounds of interviews over an extended period of time. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive an offer from Google Cloud.
