I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Ann Arbor, MI) in Mar 2014
Interview
A Google recruiter came to my university, I applied the same day to the account strategist position in Mountain View and Ann Arbor. About a month later I was emailed that I was selected for a phone interview, after that screening interview (about 30 min) a few hours later I was emailed again saying I had been selected to move on. About a week later I had two 45 minute back to back phone interviews. About a day later I was emailed saying that I had been selected for the final round for an interview on Ann Arbor campus. I was flown there two weeks later and had 3 back to back interviews. The first one was a 3 on 1 and the other two were one on ones.
the process is very fast. i got 4 rounds of interview within 2 weeks, and got the feedback right after each round of interviews. sometimes its depends on the chemistry between you and the interviewer.
The process is really complicated, questions are really detailed. Need to prepare. Wishing you all huge success! I had 3 rounds and a prep call. Recruiters are really easy going and responsive.
Disorganized recruiting with random meeting invites with no explanations. Interviewer wasn’t welcoming at all and seemed to not care at all about the interview. The feedback call after the interview sounded like recruiter was reading an AI generating summary of the interview, which felt not personal at all. Overall awful experience.
