I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Zürich) in Oct 2025
Interview
Intense but professional. You need to do a lot of prep but thankfully that's widely available online. All the rounds were described by the recruiter and when I wanted more clarity on what one would cover I was provided the opportunity to ask more questions.
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.
resume screening, a recruiter call, and technical or role-specific interviews. Candidates complete coding, system design, or behavioral rounds. Onsite or virtual panels assess problem-solving, communication, and leadership. Feedback goes to a hiring committee, followed by team matching and final offer discussions.
