Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Google en sept 2017
Entrevista
The whole process took me about a month. At first I sent my CV and cover letter (it is very important to send good cover letters). Then I was contacted by a recruiter within 2 days. He told me about an interview process, gave me some materials for interview preparation. The first interview I had was hangouts interview with an engineer. I did well with my first task: at first, I made bad and simple solution and then tried to improve its time and memory complexity. After that I had a question about some class interface design.
And after that I were waiting for about 3 weeks to get a negative decision, because my first solution was too simple. As I think my interviewer just forgot about me and wrote something, so I didn't pass.
The interview was way more challenging than I anticipated, especially the technical rounds. I was thrown off by the depth of the DSA questions. One standout was a coding question about finding the median of two sorted arrays, which I recognized instantly — it was the same problem I had worked through on PracHub. The behavioral questions felt less intense, but the overall vibe was stressful. Ultimately, I didn’t receive an offer. It was a tough experience, but I'm grateful for what I learned along the way.

The interviewer was very nice, one interviewer didn't show up so I rescheduled it. When I didn't come up with the best solution, the interveiwer was very patient and give me hint as many as possible
