The interview process started with a phone screening where I was asked both technical and behavioral questions. The technical portion involved solving coding problems live while sharing my screen. I was given a couple of algorithmic challenges that revolved around data structures like arrays and trees. After the coding portion, we transitioned to behavioral questions where I discussed my past experiences and how they aligned with Google’s values. Overall, the interview lasted about 25 minutes.
