J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Google (San Jose, CA) en oct. 2015
Entretien
I was interviews for a "general" PM position, meaning there was no particular opening for this role. However if pass a position could be created for you. This was a pre-text.
Phone interview lasted 45min sharp, then we switch to "about company" question and it was about 15-20min. Interviewer introduced himself as it was expected, but was more interested in me looking up his LinkedIn profile ( himself) than in interviewing me. He mislead me on his education degree/major. He presented himself as Ph.D. in Computer Science from Ivy league University, while in fact he is MBA as found out after the interview. Naturally, I talked to him as he is CS Ph.D, that skewed the whole conversation into entirely different dimension. The phone signal went out of range three times in row during the interview, making me feel this interview is not important. Overall feel was, too easy, something is missing here.

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.
resume screening, a recruiter call, and technical or role-specific interviews. Candidates complete coding, system design, or behavioral rounds. Onsite or virtual panels assess problem-solving, communication, and leadership. Feedback goes to a hiring committee, followed by team matching and final offer discussions.
