I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in May 2022
Interview
After getting past the phone screening call with a PM, I had six back to back 1 hour meetings with PMs from different departments all on Google Meet. Each meeting I was asked a different hypothetical question along side a question where I was asked to describe a time when.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a product you launched that failed and why and what you learned from it.
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.
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.
