I applied through an employee referral. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Google
Interview
In about a month got contacted by an HR person asking to schedule an interview. I picked the time and she called on time. The connection was VERY bad and there was so much noise in the background that I could not even hear myself speak. I asked the HR person to mute, which was the only way to answer the question I could barely hear.
Nothing special, all was a talk about myself. Two days later "thank you but no"
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Google (Hyderābād) in Oct 2025
Interview
The interview process was expedited, and the interviewer exhibited unprofessional and discourteous behavior. Furthermore, an unrealistic scenario was presented, with an expectation of an exact, pre-determined response. I was wondering whether the interviewer was too much exhausted or was not in a mood to take the interview.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google
Interview
1st round with recruiter, 2nd round with hiring manager, 3rd-4th rounds with skip level manager or key stakeholders. Questions tend to focus on past achievements and framed around the STAR methodology.
