Entretien
In one word “painful”. Included pretty standard phone screens, but design exercise was pretty involved. Had a choice of three different projects. The project I chose was to design a garage sale app. The instructions said to create sketches or wireframes for the app along with 3 high fidelity mockups. You then had to create password protected webpage documenting your solution and process all. They said applicants typically spend 3-5 hours on the design exercise, but I think it was unreasonable to expect that amount of work in that time and turned me off to the whole interview process. Only after completing the exercise and multiple phone screens did they tell me what teams/roles were available (which none were appealing). All in all it was a horrible experience and total waste of my time.

Question 1
If you could create your own project to work on at Google, what would it be and why?
I did one round of a recruiter interview and moved on to a portfolio review. The recruiter interview was just walking me through the interview process, which I'm going thru and the portfolio interview was with the hiring manager.

I was moved along the process really fast, the only slowdown I experienced was with the scheduling team (def not the most efficient or responsive, so be ready to be patient with them)
That said, the hiring team and recruiters were really good at keeping things moving. I heard back the morning of the next working day after my initial hiring manager call, and was notified that I was moving to the offer stage less than 20 hours after completing my final round.
Overall, a fast, well-run interview process once the interviews themselves started.

The interview process was very pleasant. I had the opportunity to meet with a few team members, and the questions asked were insightful. They really took the time to understand my background, and I felt that the interviewers were genuinely interested in my experience and how it aligned with the team's needs. The process was smooth, and they provided great feedback along the way.
