I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Google (Bengaluru) in Dec 2019
Interview
An online coding test followed by rounds of interview, in-person. A strong CV adds up to better chances. Competition is very high with peers and you need a bit of luck too as many people have a similar experience, so its important that you do well and are confident during the interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
‘Why do you want to work here?’ and ‘What can you tell us about yourself?’ On that note, Google is notoriously famous for asking candidates curveball questions like ‘What would you do with $100 million?’ and ‘How would you explain AdSense to my grandmother?’ The key is to showcase your technical skills and knowledge.
I was asked network questions and linux questions. Basics CLI commands and more elaborated ones here I was asked to explain the processus of thoughts. Asked also about school experiences

The interview process involves long, complex processes and extensive candidate analysis, with plentiful of interviews, screening rounds, and evaluations. Although it was very organization and able to know the status, the entire process was quite extensive, looking for the right person.
