I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in Aug 2016
Interview
I was brought into the New York City office for five forty-five minute problem sessions, one with two interviewers, and the other four with only a single interview. In each, I was asked to solve a technical problem, writing my software solution onto a whiteboard, this program complete enough to actually run. I was not able to complete solve all five of the technical problems I was given.
Initial intro call, prep time , prep material provisions,
1 Phone Screening by HR, 3 DSA, 1 HLD and 1 Googliness, Team matching and offer negotiation and offer discussion , offer acceptance
After clearing all the interviews in 2 months, here comes the team match. Where no one ever knows when they gonna get a team match call. Even if you get the TM call next comes the HC again no one knows why they reject.

Question 1
Coding questions from Leetcode google tagged but deep dived into it based on the level.
The interview lasted about a day, with 5 different interviewers. For each section, the technical questions took most of the part. They also showed me their office in Toronto, which was nice
