J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Google (Londres, Angleterre) en nov. 2016
Entretien
Applied online and got called in for an interview. There were two 1:1 interviews over Hangouts on the same day. There was an optional briefing session (also over Hangouts) where the recruitment process was described and questions were answered.
I was impressed with how much they seemed to want the candidates to be prepared. They give several links to access some preparation materials, including a guide written by Google specifically for the internship recruitment process.
The recruiter and also the interviewers were quite nice. But I think they could have allowed more room to think. I felt that both interviewers sort of had their own line of thought and wanted me to follow it, instead of giving me freedom to approach the problem on my own first. I feel that if the questions were harder, I would have been able to demonstrate my analytical skills better.

Question 1
The first interview started off with some theoretical questions about data structures and ended with a simple coding exercise followed by a bit tougher problem regarding scalability. The entire second interview consisted of one problem. They expect you to answer questions at the end, so have some good questions ready.

The interview process involves long, complex processes and extensive candidate analysis, with plentiful of interviews, screening rounds, and evaluations. Although it was very organization and able to know the status, the entire process was quite extensive, looking for the right person.
