Applied at PhD level so I had two back to back technical interviews. One all stats concepts and the other talking over a hypothetical experiment design and walking through my thought process.
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Mountain View, CA) in Jun 2025
Interview
I had a chance to interview for the data scientist role at google in June 2025. There were 7 rounds of interview after a phone screening round heavily based in machine learning and how quick you can think and they will evaluate you by noticing your problem solving availability.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Statistics and machine learning questions: where you’ll be tested both on general statistical principles and definitions as well as probability and applied machine learning.
lot of rounds, pretty easy internal process, more behavioral than technical. would recommend trying to do it via internal transfers vs external. would recommend knowing which team you're going to interview for within data science vs just the broad function
