I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Google in Nov 2014
Interview
I had two phone screen interviews. It was my first interview experience. Both interviewers were very much to the point, did not say too much about themselves or ask me anything except to code a solution to an algorithmic problem (both from Cracking the coding interview as I later found out). I found the interviews very impersonal and stressful, although the second was a bit better because the interviewer was guiding me when I did something right and asked me to reconsider when I did something wrong. At the end of both interviews I felt discouraged and just wanted to end the call so I did not ask many (or thoughtful) questions.

I didn’t get an interview because my resume must not be a fit. I also don’t grind leetcode so idk. I hope in the future I will be a SWE FANG hype beast
The interview process involves long, complex processes and extensive candidate analysis, with plentiful of interviews, screening rounds, and evaluations. Although it was very organization and able to know the status, the entire process was quite extensive, looking for the right person.
