Interview Process
The interview began with typical behavioral questions about my previous experiences and how I dealt with challenges. Then, I was presented with a coding challenge that involved determining the distance between points on a grid. The problem required implementation of a BFS algorithm to find the shortest path. I discussed my thought process and made sure to explain my code clearly as I solved the problem. Finally, I had a chance to ask a few questions about the team culture and ongoing projects at Google, which was exciting!
Technical Questions
- Distance Between Points on a Grid (BFS, Graph)
- Robot Grid Distance Challenge (Greedy, Simulation)
Tips & Insights
Be prepared to explain your thought process during coding challenges and engage with the interviewer about the team and projects.
