I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2026
Interview
Easy to navigate, great gidance and support from recruiters. Friendly leadership and positive attitude. Timelines and expectations were clear since the start with no surprises or delays. Recruiter was on top of my questions and always followed back after each interview with feedback and next steps.
The interviewers were friendly but focused, asking me to explain my thought process and approach to each problem. One of the interviews was more about cultural fit, where they asked how I handle teamwork, conflict, and align with Google's values.
