J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Google (Mountain View, CA) en déc. 2010
Entretien
The overall interview process started off well. Expectations were set about a phone interview followed by a day of in-person interviews. However, once the process began, it became clear that they have trouble following their own process. Ultimately, it took 2 months to get to the offer and by that time I find another job. The people are smart and seem fun to work with, but if they can't get their hiring process right, there are going to be more challenges in the day-to-day.

Entretien
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.

Entretien
You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.
Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
