Phone interview was definitely a weed-out interview. Lots of standard questions, including a problem-solving question. My interviewer was very nice and patient as I babbled my way through the problem-solving question. They called me back for an interview at the Googleplex, and I sat with 4 different people. Each one asked somewhat similar questions, so I found myself repeating myself. All the interviewers were very professional, even if their attire wasn't. I really hit it off with one of them, the interview went really late but neither of us noticed. And one asked a really hard problem-solving question, which I spent a while at the whiteboard trying to solve. Loved it. Overall, my impression of Google is reinforced by this interview: the people there are super-smart, and even though there was a casualness about the place, the people were serious -- in a good way. I hope they call me back with an offer!!!

Recruiter reached out to me, we had an initial conversation, then I had to take this online behavioural assessment which was a requirement to get to the first round, which is the manager round. Once I passed that, I was scheduled for my first round with the manager. Yes, this role is technical, but don’t be like me, who focused all their energy on perfecting technical knowledge of GCP. Your first round will be a bunch of scenario based customer facing questions. Focus on understanding enough to talk fluently about network design in GCP, VPC, Subnet, PSA, PSC. And how to manage customer expectations Onprem to cloud connection solutions, vpn, interconnect. Good luck and I hope you experience the joy of landing this role that I hoped for.
