I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Google in Nov 2022
Interview
Had an OA first and then two synchronous interviews with current software engineers. First interviewer was quite rude and unhelpful when I got stuck. He sighed often and just seemed overall frustrated. The question was pretty tough. Second interview was a simpler hashmap question and the interviewer was nicer. Did not get past these two interviews.

There were multiple stages to the process, but the main one of which was technical interviews through digital meetings (Zoom) consisted of 2 meetings, in which you have to solve 1 leet-code style question, levels medium-hard.
Average interview
Application
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google (Tel Aviv-Yafo)
Interview
My application process started in November with two LeetCode-style home assignments. In December, I sat for two technical interviews on Google Meet. Although they were meant to be back-to-back, one was rescheduled after the interviewer didn't show up. I successfully navigated a medium question with a follow-up and a hard DFS/graph problem.
Two weeks later, in January, I moved into the host-matching phase. After one team match interview in February, I wasn't selected, and by April, I received a final update that the process was closing because no further team matches were found.
