Overall Neutral Experience Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Mountain View, CA (took a day)

I was emailed by a Google recruiter to assess my compatibility for a position in Software Engineering. The recruiter sent a list of questions via email, but the questions were mostly boilerplate -- some of which could have been readily answered with a cursory glance at my resume (which they already had). The better questions were of a "tell me about a time you..." format. I responded to the questions by email and got a canned "thanks" response, but heard nothing more and did not pursue it.
