J'ai passé un entretien chez Google Cloud (Gurgaon, Haryana)
Entretien
The interview process began with a phone screen focused on basic data structures and algorithms. This was followed by a virtual technical interview with two rounds one involving a system design problem and another with live coding using LeetCode style problems. The final round was a behavioral interview with a hiring manager. The entire process spanned about three weeks and was well-structured and communicative.

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.
