I applied online. I interviewed at Google (Raleigh, NC) in Jan 2020
Interview
First I got an Online Assessment which was pretty simple. Then I was invited for an interview having 2 rounds. Each interview was 45 minutes long. Both the rounds had only coding questions. The code had to be written in a Google doc while explaining the approach to the interviewer. The interviewers give you hints if you are stuck. Both of the questions were difficult. One was a string problem and the other involved backtracking.
there is no online assessment, very simple phone call, then two technicals. technicals are not difficult by any means. then you get put into team matching, after a couple months
