      Localization Project Manager (Contract) Interview

      23 Oct 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mountain View, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Oct 2013

      Interview

      Was contacted by an agency rep about this position and a couple of days later I had a 30 minute phone interview. The interview started off with being asked to talk about the aspects of my background which would make me the right person for this role. Other questions were in regards to how I prioritize my work and how I build relationships. It was pretty standard stuff -- but the interviewer took another call in the middle of the interview. The second interview was an hour-long onsite interview with two interviewers. Questions were specific to the role such as: - How would you handle a situation where you had a deadline that was not movable, and the person setting the deadline also had a deliverables date that he/she missed? - How would you handle a situation where customers where providing negative feedback on something, e.g., a website, that was badly translated?

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you were handling a product that had not been localized in many years and you suddenly had to make sure that it got localized. Nobody really knows how to localize it. What would you do?
