The interview process is long, but not as long as expected from reading other reviews. I cannot judge fairly because I planned to start working about a year after the first contact (and they agreed to that, and it was great), but I think that if I rushed things, it would have taken 2.5 months.
I got a first quick phone interview of about 45', where they asked small and easy general questions, and to code up some little problems. My impression is that if you are worried about this interview, you are not going to pass anyway.
After that, they asked me to come to the office, where I had 5 interviews of about 45', a lunch, and a tour of the office. Accomodation was great, and the process painless, and I enjoyed the questions. They were easier than expected, but I think you need to be quite precise in the answers to get an offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a client/server structure? (when I expected coding questions :P)
I was contacted by a recruiter and later scheduled for two interview rounds: a technical screen to assess my skills, followed by a leadership round to evaluate my collaboration and problem-solving approach.

Question 1
Typical scenario based questions for behavioural round
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Zürich) in Feb 2026
Interview
Schnelle Absage über die Statusmeldung im Portal. Ohne Referenz von internen Mitarbeitern ist es schwierig, in die Interviewphase zu gelangen. Anschließend ist man für 90 Tage im Bewerbungsverfahren blockiert, was eine erneute Bewerbung ebenfalls erschwert. Das ist nicht ganz fair, wenn die Gründe für die Absage sehr unterschiedlich sein können, wie etwa wenn zu viele Bewerber bereits im Prozess sind.
An external recruiter from randsad contacted me through LinkedIn. first interview is scheduled after 3 weeks. its about a coding question where i failed in writing complete code in 30 min.
