I interviewed at Google for a software engineering role. After a recruiter call, I had two technical phone interviews with coding problems on data structures and algorithms via Google Meet using a shared Doc. Once I passed, I was invited for the onsite (now virtual) with 4–5 rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions. Each round lasted about 45 minutes. The interviewers focused on problem-solving, code clarity, and communication. After the onsite, the hiring committee reviewed my performance, and the recruiter got back to me with the final decision in a couple of weeks. The process was structured and challenging.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One question they asked me was:
"Given a stream of integers, design a data structure that supports adding numbers and finding the median efficiently."
I had to explain the approach, implement it using two heaps (max-heap and min-heap), and handle edge cases while maintaining optimal time complexity.
I applied online. I interviewed at Google (New York, NY)

oa+interview, and also you need to go to one office to get onboard interview, tech interview about leetcode problem, They ask you to write it on the board and docs
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You are given two N-sided dice, P and Q, where each die has N integer values (not necessarily unique or standard).
When rolled, each side is equally likely to appear.
Given the values on each side of dice P and Q, determine:
The number of outcomes where P's roll is greater than Q's roll (i.e., P wins).
Follow up 1: The number of outcomes where Q wins.
Follow up 2: The number of outcomes where both rolls are equal (tie).
P and Q are always in non-decreasing sorted order.
Applied got email from someone I don’t think they are actual Google recruiters, they send assessment link once completed even pass, they say will update to Google recruiter and come back by saying not selected. Feel whole process something not right
