I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Google (Dublin, Dublin)
Interview
Technical Recruiter contacted me through Linkedin. He explained me about the role and the interview process. He wanted me to fill a questionnaire, which contained questions about my technical and BA experience. He sent the filled questionnaire and my CV to the hiring manager.
After a week, I had a phone interview with the hiring manager/team member. It was a standard interview with usual questions. The interviewer told me that he didn't read my questionnaire that I sent earlier, which I didn't expect from Google.
After 3-4days I was told that I won't be going to next stages and NO feedback was given. Strange!

The interview process was straightforward and professional. It began with a recruiter screening focused on my background, interest in the Business Analyst role, and general fit. The conversation then moved into my analytical experience, communication style, and how I approach ambiguous business problems.
Interview process is dumb. Honestly not worth the hype. Was done over the phone and the interviewer wasn’t even that friendly. I’m sure it’s a great fit for some people but I need something with more of a focused vision.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY) in Feb 2026
